Good morning! Today is my first load day of my 3rd round. Before I start gorging myself with meatloaf and mashed potatos, fried eggs, cheese and such my weight this morning is 136.9. I was out late at the drive in we were eating junk food and drinking pop, two things I don't do much anymore. So that is why I am up 2.5 from my LIW. I just pretend my load started last night.

I decided not to go tubing down the river today. I think it would be too hard to load properly and it is so important to load right if I don't want to struggle with the transition into VLCD on Wednesday. Yesterday I bought and weighed out my fish. I still had some chicken frozen from the last time and today I will weigh out my sirloin. The scallops are already to go and this time I won't get shrimp unless I am craving something different. I have my lettuce, asparagus, spinach and tomatoes ready to grab and since I couldn't find the apples I wanted at the store I just bought strawberries to start with.

So I have just about 10 pounds to get to my goal and feel confident my goal will be reached this time around. I am excited to be so close to my goal and to have watched this transformation occur in my body. It boosts my confidence and makes it easier to do things. I can cross my legs at the knee again instead of at the ankle.

In October my twin will be down for my brother's wedding. It will be nice to stand side by side and know that we both look good and healthy at the same time as each other for the first time in almost 20 years. Maybe we should dress alike for the wedding and see if people can tell us apart. Now that would be fun!
