New Year - Round 3 Begins

I know it has been awhile since I've posted yet there is not much to say when you are in Phase 3 and 4. Phase 3 went pretty good. Not as many correction days this time. I think I am finally getting the hint. One thing I learned is not to do an apple day the day before you move into phase 3 as this is not your true LDW (last dosage weight). I was stuck at 204 for about 4 days and I really wanted to hit my 100 mark, so the day before phase 3 I did the apple day and was able to get down to 201. I was happy, yet I was having trouble stabilizing until I read somewhere that this is not what you should do. I then decided to move my LDW to 204 and after that I was able to stabilize just fine.
I was going to start my new round on Christmas Eve yet with my husband out of work for almost 2 months because of a back injury, I was late at ordering my drops. I found the site I get my drops from on Facebook and decided to put my before and during picture up and tell them a little bit about me. I mentioned there about wanting to start on Christmas Eve yet wasn't sure if the drops would get there on time. The owner commented and told me to look at my e-mail. When I did, I cried. She mentioned that she sent my drops priority mail so they would get there on time and also included a FREE bottle. I was overwhelmed! I did get my bottles on Christmas Eve yet still decided to start on New Year's Eve.
This week has been a little rough as my son gave me loading foods for Christmas so I have been having a cookie here and there, etc. I went over my LDW and today should of done a correction day yet I thought why loose a pound when I am just going to gain it back the next day so I decided that I was going to load for three days again. Today was a light load and I started my drops again. Tomorrow will REALLY be my gorging day as will New Year's day. I am excited to start this round and loose some more weight. I should (better) get into the 100 club this round. Way exciting. I will be posting more for anyone who is following me.
Good luck for all those who are starting a new round, those who are stabilizing and those who are maintaining.
