Thank you sir! I will. The last time I did this regimen over a period of a year or so, I lost 90 pounds. It consists of 12 week cycles: 6 weeks on at 500 calories/day, with daily HCG injections; and 6 weeks off at 1000 calories/day without the injections. Rinse and repeat until goal is reached. I kept those 90 lbs off for a long time, but I got derailed and gained back a fair amount of that lost weight over the past year due to a cascading series of illnesses and injuries, with forced inactivity. I'm on day 3 of 500/day, and other than a little fatigue, I'm feeling OK. I'll miss the fellowship, but right now, the best thing I can do for my own discipline is to stay away from where food is served and watching a bunch of other people eating it.Bitter Clinger wrote:OMG!

I'll eat an extra breakfast taco for you. Hope the diet works as needed.The Annoyed Man wrote:No, there isn't.

Re: DFW West/Southwest Quadrant Breakfast
I'm going to miss this one tomorrow. Have to be home for work being done at the house. But I bet they show up at the end of their 3 hour window and I could have made it.

Well, my wife scheduled me to take the dog for her checkup tomorrow at 8am, so I'll likely miss the breakfast. How long do you all usually meet, in case I can make the tail end?

Much smaller crowd today only 5 members were able to make it. Still had good food and conversation.

Re: DFW West/Southwest Quadrant Breakfast
So can I go ahead and throw out September 16th as a proposal for the next breakfast? That'd be the Saturday before the training class for any going to that.
Success always occurs in private, and failure in full view.

You folks are killin' me.
I'm nothing special to look at, but FYI, I work every other weekend and this past 19th and the 16th of next month are my weekends to work. I can't promise, but if it wouldn't be too much trouble to switch to the "other" weekend sometime I would do my darndest to make at least one of these breakfasts.
