congrats on the 9lbs
That’s a terrific weightloss! Just keep eating because keeping
your “fuel burning” furnace stocked with good foods is the key. Also,
keeping up your water/fluid intake will help. I’ve lost 35 lbs on
this diet and am a total believer! On the weeks I don’t lose I
measure and I’m always down inches. I would take Phase 2 cautiously
until you see how your body reacts to the added foods. My thinking is
that it’s better to be eating healthy and making positive changes than
worrying about the scale. Because if you stick to it you are
guaranteed results in the long run. Good luck!
