My LIW was 174.6 and today I was 175 even. Doing well, but ended up taking some disgusting castor oil this afternoon. Just thinking about that stuff makes me want to hurl. Next time, it'll be Ex-Lax or something more pleasant. Ew! Pretty much all of my food headed south today. I can imagine tomorrow's weight will be low and inaccurate. Oh, well.

It rained all day today. It was lovely. We really haven't had a lot of fall, rainy days and I enjoy them. We were supposed to get snow, but this was so much better. The girls had Garlic/Parmesan grilled cheese sandwiches and chicken noodle soup for lunch. I envied them. The rest of the afternoon, my youngest was in my room watching movies (Pretty in Pink and Bustin' Loose) while she drew. She seemed to enjoy time with mommy.

Finally, this evening, we went to a hypnotist show. Both girls had a blast, as did I. I'm glad I decided to have a girl's night out with them.

Looking forward to my awesome, protein-filled breakfast on Tuesday. Yeah! Here's what I had (or rather, what left me) today:

I've been flushing and flushing all day (literally). I think the salt is headed out, which makes me very happy. Today was my last injection and tomorrow, Friday and Saturday are my last low calorie days. I actually ended up on a great day, because I can enjoy hubby's barbecue on Sunday. Lovely!

I'm excited about digging back into my low-carb recipes. I discovered that their is a lower-fat option for whipping cream and I can't wait to use it. That was the one aspect of low carb that bothered me; the heavy-laden fat.

Here's what I had today:

I was up .2lbs for all the salty reasons I've expressed in the past two days. So, if 165.2 is my last inject weight, then so be it. I'm good.

So, that's it! I threw out the rest of the HCG (not very much, but still painful to do). The weekend will be tricky, what with the aid of the regular injections missing from my system and these blasted PMS cravings. I will do my best to hold them off with lots and lots of liquids. It's the best thing for me, right?

I only lost .4lbs (I wonder if this is another indication that it's time to stop) but I'm still feeling good about how I look. My hair is done (ouch...tight braids!) and my kids are winding down for the night. All is right with the world. Here's what I had today (oh, and I didn't have a BBK side salad as is listed below. It was from Wendy's, but I removed all the carrots and ate it without the dressing. The BBK salad was the closest I could find to what I actually had):

I was 139.4lbs this morning. Slow and steady as the turtle goes, these last few days. This is also my LIW.

I'm done. I had my last injection today and it's a bit surreal. By Sunday, hubby and I are talking buffet of meat and cheese. I don't think I'll make it. I had nearly the 500 calorie mark for the first time today and I feel like I'm going to blow up. Seriously!

I make my long drive tomorrow, so I'll have to have some items to take along. I'll probably do a bit of shopping, once I get there. Anyway, I am anxious to go but getting sadder about being without my hubby on our wedding anniversary.

On a happier note, I had a good loss today at 1.2lbs. This means that I can't go lower than 155.8 and no higher than 159.8 as I stabilize and then maintain (at least until Round 2). Here's what I had today, again, the closest I've been to 500 calories ever on this plan:
