Week 3, Day 3? Sounds like time's going fast! I weigh myself every morning, just so I can gauge what each day does to my body. But I only count Tuesday mornings. Just to be fair.  ;) This Tuesday past, so 2 weeks in, I was down a total of 4 pounds. I think I had originally said my starting weight was 166, but I think I fudged a little. It was really 166.5.

Au contraire, my friends - compared to some restrictive diets I've been on, or crazy shit workout schedules, this is the GRAVY TRAIN. But, compared to last week, where things were a little challenging, things are getting much easier. My second 24-hour fast went by well.

I'm not feeling deprived AT ALL, in fact, I am so full most of the time that I have a hard time getting enough protein into me! I weighed myself this morning and found that I've gone down two pounds since last Tuesday.

It was delicious - and very easy to make. The only thing I would change is to buy raw shrimp next time, because with the ones I used being precooked they were a LITTLE overcooked...but considering I detest looking at raw shrimp, it's probably never going to happen. hah.
