Week 1 of Zerona Experimental Laser Treatment

Well, I will admit the process is quite interesting. I have heard and have overheard a lot of patients in the clinic who are very trepidacious about being naked with only a bra and a thong on. As for me, well, I don't know if it's my youth, or my mentality or the fact that I don't know any of these nurses, but I really didn't care if I had to be butt naked to do this treatment. The nurses say that because of my lack of reservation, I'm the easiest Zerona patient so far.

And the results so far, are pretty darn good. Granted, for reasons I truly can't even remember at this point, I have only exercised twice in 5 days. But from that first morning to the morning of the third session (5th day) I was down 4.5 pounds! Not bad. And it was over a weekend when I had my father's birthday dinner. Not bad at all! That's definitely hitting my 3-4 lbs a week quota.

Tomorrow is my 4th session (8th day), and officially an entire week has gone by. I also have officially started the Lindora program, but this time in this new clinic. I figured I needed a new environment, new nurses, and a brand new experience. Also, I have signed up for only the 2 days a week visits. I just can't commit to coming into the clinic at 8am (or earlier) before work for 5 days a week. My life is too hectic and it's hard enough for me to wake up that early twice a week. Perhaps as I go on, I will be able to get into a routine, but for now, only 2 days a week.

The other two ladies from my work who also volunteered for this procedure are looking great! I don't know how much they weigh or how much they have lost so far, but I see them walking down the hall way at work and their clothes look looser/baggier... especially their pants. Shoot!! I sure hope that will be me, too!

The one thing I need to definitely focus on is my exercise. I need to be more consistent. To have only worked out twice in five days is unacceptable. And I'm trying to be accountable to myself and my conscience and this blog.

I think my second weigh-in tomorrow morning is what will really give the laser treatment creditability in my eyes. If I'm down again after only one other day of exercise, then I will believe this Zerona really does work. How much it works, well, only time will tell, and of course, everything depends on the person being treated and how dedicated and loyal to following the program and exercise and drinking a lot of water and giving up caffeine. (Yeah, you heard me, no soda and no coffee.. no wonder I'm getting headaches and peeing so much. Seriously, I drink so much water in one day, I swear to you that I'm dreaming about having to pee... and you know what THAT could lead to).

Well, let's see what happens. Marching on and keeping the dieting faith!
