So here are the numbers from when I saw my doctor on Wednesday:
My Current Weight: 323 pounds
Change this Week: 0 pounds
Total Change: lost 46 pounds
My Current Pledges: $82.75 per pound
Amount Raised: same as last week :(
Still on the plateau... Obviously what I had been doing wasn't working, so we (my doctor and me) talked about what changes I could make to get back on track. I've been doing a new program for 48 hours and here's the numbers as of this morning (from my home scale, so maybe a 1 pound margin of error):
My Current Weight: 318 pounds
Change Since Wednesday: lost 5 pounds!
Total Change: lost 51 pounds :)
My Current Pledges: $82.75 per pound
Amount Raised: $4220.25 (over 16,000 meals!)
The program is not Atkins but it is a low carb program that reduces insulin production, and its working very well right now (don't worry- I won't be sustaining this rate of loss, I know that would result in my body breaking down stuff that's not fat...) and can be translated into lifestyle changes that will help me keep the weight off. I'm excited to not be standing still anymore, and really excited to have broken the 50 pound mark! 20 more and I'll be under 300 for the first time since (a few months after) my accident :)
