Remember Me?

I checked out the blog stats today, and I was surprised to see that people are still checking in here.  Sorry I've been absent!  In all honesty, I quit blogging about the time I quit following the Protocol.  I had been ready to move on to Phase 3, but my mixing partners wanted to continue, so I pressed on and immediately started cheating.  I stole bites of this and that for a few days before stopping injections, and then I did not do Phase 3 right AT ALL.  I moved right on to eating sugar and starch and did not restrict myself at all.  How do you suppose that turned out???


Well...as of February 2nd, I had lost 18.4 pounds (remember that I started loading on January 1st) to hit a low-weight I hadn't seen in YEARS.  I stayed there for one day before I started creeping back up (and then the aforementioned cheating began).  In less than three weeks, I gained 7 pounds back.  A month later, I had gained 14.4 of it back.  All but four pounds of my Round 2 losses were completely thrown away.  Boy, have I been kicking myself for that!  But...lesson learned.  I must not cheat and I must do a proper Phase 3 to be successful and maintain my losses.


I've dusted myself off (and have HS back on board) and started anew.  We've been going again for 19 days, and I've reached a new all-time low.  Sadly, I'm still 5.8 pounds from my Round 2 goal, and I think these are going to be among my hardest pounds to lose, but I'm sticking to it this time!  It has been so much easier with HS back on-board!  I might have to figure out a way to spike his water or something he'll have to do another round with me.  :-)
