New low!

Down another 1.8 lbs this morning. This makes 3.6 lbs in three days. I feel really good. The question is, will I gain it back again just as fast? As of today, I'm officially at my lowest weight ever since arriving in the US more than a decade ago! I finally reached 55 lbs and surpassed it a little! Yay!

I'm going to start reintroducing meals slowly today. Same breakfast as the last three days. Lunch is similar, basically rice and veggies, and dinner is the same as yesterday plus salmonl.

First thing: Water with lemon juice and ginger
Before breakfast: Barley grass in water.
Breakfast: Carrot, cucumber, beetroot and spinach juice
Lunch: Kimbap
Afternoon: Ginger tea
Dinner: Carrot, tomato, spinach, celery, cucumber, red bell pepper and barley grass juice. Salmon.
Early evening: Almonds
Before bed: Egyptian Licorice Tea

Never had kimbap before. It looks just like sushi rolls, which I don't like, but this was delicious! I could eat this on a regular basis. The pickled daikon in it was so spicy. Mmmmm!

Two hours 2 minutes total exercise today. 62 minutes on the treadmill. 60 minutes aerobic weight training (Hare). 7,051 aerobic steps 11,117 total steps I feel like im making a bit of progress i was able to raise my hips higher than before when doing reverse crunches and iso hip lifts And I increased my mid-range weights a little from 8 lbs to 10 lbs. I bought another 15 lb dumbbell and two 20 lb dumbbells. I think I'll be able to do at least some squats and lat rows with 20s, anf, if not, I now have two 15s I can use. I think I might be able to do french presses with a 20, also. I'll find out in the next couple of days. Those workouts claim visible results after 10 workouts. Today makes 8, and I have actually been seeing a little bit of a difference. My butt doesn't stick out quite as much, and my thighs don't stick out more than my hips any more. My legs and arms both look slightly more toned. You have to look hard to see the difference, but there IS one! :) My Achilles tendon seems to be completely healed so I've been increasing my speed on the treadmill, and set an incline of 3 for part of my last session today.
