Well, another 2 down this week. I'm now officially under the weight I was when I started transitioning to Phase 2. So, this week I ate 60 NC daily and any kind of fruits and vegetables I wanted and even popcorn (since it is technically corn), and still lost 2 pounds. I think it has to do with the fact that I have a lot more low calorie options now so it's easier to stay between 1600-1800 calories/day. Snacking on baby carrots instead of nuts is a lot less calories, for example. So, starting this week I will add back whole grains and increase NC to 70 daily. I'm a little worried about this stage because of the fact that I'll be able to actually have bread, but I probably won't have much of it. Also, I added back potatoes last week, so this week I think I'm gonna treat myself to some French fries, but only if they fall within the calorie limit. Otherwise it's a no. The calorie limit is a must. Also, I've still been drinking at least 80 ounces of water daily (about 1/2 my weight). And I'm still doing Pilates for an hour 5 days/wk, so I think that's made a huge difference too. I've come to really enjoy phase 2 now that my body has gotten used to it and I've got the calories, water, and exercise routine down. Only 7 pounds to go!
