Way to go Gary.
It sounds like things are progressing normally. As you know, I went through the same "2-a-day" protocol you're going through.
You're right, the off weeks seemed to be the toughest. The side effects seemed to peak on Wednesday or Thursday, and just about the time I started felling pretty well, it was time for another week of 2-a-days.
Keep up the hydration, and be careful not to fall in love with the weight loss. It's still important to get nutrition to help with healing.

Hang in there,you are almost half way there.

If you still have my phone number, give me a call, or drop me a PM and I'll send it again.

Good Health,

Chuck
