Shangri-La Diet - Day 13

Weight: 196 lbs.
Weight Lost Since Beginning: 3 lbs.


Things are getting to be pretty routine now, so I am not posting as often.

I am still tweaking the dosage amount. 1 1/3 tbsp. twice a day seems like a little too much, but 1 tbsp. twice a day is not enough. I'll keep working on getting the amount right.

I could be losing a lot more, if I went with higher doses, but I don't believe that losing more than 1-2 lb. per week is healthy. I would rather lose the weight more slowly. I wonder if people can get themselves really sick if they are too aggressive with the weight loss.

Other than that, the only thing I have to report is that I am more emotional than usual. I think that is because I don't have a way of "dampening" my emotions by eating, like I used to.

The light-headedness problem is just about gone. I think the dose was too high at first. When I lowered the dose, it got a lot better.
