Oh well.

 Well, I'll just come right out and say it... that was a big, flat, flop. The 2 week jump start resulted in 6 lbs lost. Total. After gaining some back and then losing it again. Also, may be tmi, but in the last two weeks, I've only pooped maybe 3 times. These shakes seriously constipate me. I'm sure that doesn't help with weight loss, if you're carrying around everything you've been putting in over the last 2 weeks.

I'd be lying if I didn't say I'm pretty discouraged and somewhat pissed off. I was supposed to be doing 5 shakes a day for a total of 1000 calories. In the beginning, I was trying to do exactly that. But as time went on, I would sometimes only drink maybe 3-4 shakes and eat a few very low cal/low carb snacks or just stop at 3-4 shakes. So some days I wouldn't even be ingesting 1000 cals. A lot of days, it was probably more around 800. I've been working out several times every week with Yoga and Zumba, and jogging at home. Needless to say, I've busted my ass for these 6 lbs. 

I'm starting the gym today. I have my official gym orientation tonight. I plan to throw in a couple of gym sessions per week, in addition to yoga and zumba. I will get this weight off. One way or another. Shakes be damned.
