Almost there!
I only have a few pounds until my goal...yeah!!! My apple day resulted in about a 1lb weight loss so hopefully I'll hit my goal in the next few days. I was going to stop the shots today but decided to give it a couple more days. I can fit into most of my old clothes now except for a few of the size 8's that are a little snug still. It was like getting a whole new wardrobe when I got all my old clothes out and tried them on, it was great!
I finally got a call from my doctor about my heart trouble and he ordered blood work to check my potassium. I will be seeing him tomorrow for the results. I will still have to wait a couple weeks to get the results from my heart monitor since we don't have a cardiologist here and they have to send everything up North (one of the drawbacks of living in rural Utah!). However, I have been eating lots of spinach the past few days and have been feeling quite a bit better. Not 100% yet tho so hopefully I didn't do any long term damage to my heart. My heart is still beating between 90 to 140 beats per minute which is very high and a signal that my heart is having to work too hard to pump blood. Keep me in your prayers!

I love this and I am so thankful that I bought the book and read it and got past my fear of shots. LOL Glad to hear things are going so well for you. I wish the people that are on phase 3 and 4 would blog daily. I think it would help all of us keep on track and know what to expect. Just a thought.

Darla,
Things are going really well! I have been off the shots for 2 months now and I have stayed within 2 lbs of my ending weight most of the time...I did drop down 2.6lbs at one point but it came back up to just under my ending weight. I've only had 2 steak days and that was within the first week or so after stopping the shots. I weigh myself every morning so that the weight will never sneek up on me! I'm loving life again!

Hi,
I just happened onto your site. How is maintaining going for you? Some have no problem with it and others seem to struggle. I am always interested. I have a ways to go yet but hope to be there someday too.
