Day Three Cleansing Day

Today is day three and officially a cleansing day. I got out of bed this morning excited and curious about what my measurements and weight were. On day three you are allowed to re-weigh yourself to measure your progress. On my first post I said that I wasn't going to tell what my weight was but I am only because I am SHOCKED at what I saw when I stepped on the scale this morning. On Friday I weighed 184.0 this morning I weight 178.6! Wow! I didn't feel like I was losing that much weight. 6 pounds in two days. I am also shocked that I am not hungry. I've realized that my body and my brain are at war when it comes to food. We went to a movie in the park last night and saw hundreds of people around us eating popcorn, candy, chicken from Chic-fil-A and other assorted goodies. I was not hungry in the slightest. My husband acknowledged that he too was not hungry but he felt odd not to be eating in this situation and that his eyes were telling this brain something different then his stomach felt. Odd that we work this way. I will keep you posted on our progress. I am now off to enjoy putting on some clothes in my closet to see if I now fit into them. : )

Isn't this over yet?!

Sometimes I just want to scream! It feels like the last 2 and half years have just taken a crap on me and my family and there seems no end in sight. Oh let's recap shall we... 2016 was my son's first open heart surgery followed by a plethora of doctor's appointments and other surgeries. I thought it was over by the end of the year and took the advice of Whitney Houston and friends when I exhaled. However, my fun filled days were not over yet and I found myself dumbfounded by the turn of events in my life. 2017 started out fine...well not really. January brought us the bad news that our black Lab Molly Mae had cancer. It was in her bones and basically there was nothing to do but love her. So, that's what we did. We took her home and loved her. Then, in April we were informed that my son needed to have another open heart surgery because the tissue valve that they put in was not performing the way that they thought that it would and now needed ...

16 days later...

Well, it's been sixteen days since my last post and well I can honestly say that I am totally disappointed. I thought that I would see some sort of growth but I haven't. What's worse is that my nails are so thin and weak that I had to actually cut some of my nails because they tore. Not because they grew. They were weak to begin with but at least they feel a little better. I mean I can now take a shower and the hot water doesn't hurt my fingernails. I am also a bit perplexed at the my second to the last finger. If you look close you can see the part of the nail that had solar on it and the amount of growth but my nail never got longer and this is not one of the one's that I had to trim. Things that make you go hummmm. So here are my nails. I have been using the Nail-Aid Keratin for 16 days. It says 3 days growth but in three days I saw no growth. I have been receiving e-mails and comments suggesting that I use the O.P.I. Nail Strengthening but I refuse. ...

3 day nail check in

It had been three days since I have removed my nails and coated them with Sally Hansen's Hard as Wraps nail covering. Now the directions say to take off the polish after three days and restart the process all over again with two (2) new coats. When they say that you need to remove the polish after three days and start over, they mean it. Here is what happens on the third day, prompting you to remove the polish. My nails with the initial tear on the polish. The polish starts to lift and tear off. It started with a small uplift on the side of my nails and I pulled off the rest. Surprisingly, the whole thing came off without having to use nail polish remover.The problem with that, though, is that my nails underneath are still very thin and weak. In this picture the nail is bent. It's a little hard to see it but I am bending my nail. The weak condition of my nails has continued and I see no real change to them . The next picture is of the top of my nail, showing the te...
