Week Eight - Day One - End of Repairvite and Water Fast

The Dr. was back in the office today.  Had a good talk with him about the progress I am making.  I have lost 45 pounds in 50 days.  Not bad.  I know I have a long way to go.  I would like to lose about another 100-125 pounds.  The Dr. says he doesn't see why I shouldn't be down a total of about 100 pounds by the end of the year.  That excites me, to think I could be down 100 pounds by the end of the year.  Could actually be under the 300 pound mark.  I just realized, I lost 9 lbs this last week,  A big part of that was that fact that Thur, Fri, Sat was my modified water diet.  I only need to lose about a pound and three quarters each week from now through the end of the year to make 100 lbs for this year.  I believe it is very do able when I break it down that way.  I know that my success is because I am following the program Dr. Scott has laid out for me to the letter.  I will admit it has also taken a great deal of will power to accomplish these things.

I have completed 30 days of Repairvite and three days of the modified water fast.  I was going to start my Clearvite today but Dr. Scott is out of the things I need but should have them by the time I go back on Thursday.  I will be on Clearvite for 21 days and then I will be begin reintroducing foods back into my diet.  For what Dr. Scott said, the first thing will be eggs and gluten and dairy will be at the very last.  I told Dr. Scott I need to be back on dairy and gluten by August because I have dinner of homemade Ravioli planned and I don't want to give it up.  He just laughed and that worries me.  My visit to his office lasted about two and a half hours today.  It is a good thing I don't plan anything until at least three hours or so after my scheduled time at his office.

I need to take a minute, to post somethings I have been thinking as of late.  When I first went to listen to Dr. Scott's presentation, I went to keep my wife happy.  I figured it would all be a smoke and mirrors presentation.  I have tried all kinds of diets and programs for weight loss and I figured this would be no different, but now as I start my eighth week with Dr. Scott I feel totally different.  I know that Dr. Scott is in business to make money but I also know that he has a genuine concern for the people he is working with.  Thank you Dr. Scott for all you have done for me.
