Here is a refresher of what it is and what is happening with me:
Sensa is a program where you sprinkle tastants on your food, one for sweet one for salty. The tastants trick your senses causing you to feel full faster, meaning you eat less. You do not deprive yourself or avoid any kind of food. If you want it, you eat it. The ingredients are not harmful and have no side-effects. There is no msg or gluten. There are no meetings to attend, points to track, diets to follow. Both men and women lose and average of 30.5lbs in 6 months.
Month one I started out pretty skeptical. But I have a free 6 month supply to review, why not? I checked the ingredients and I would actually still use this even if I were pregnant or nursing. Very safe, but they do not recommend using it while pregnant or nursing officially, that is just me.
The first week my mouth would go a bit tingly and numb after using it and I ate a bit more because I mentally worried that I was going to be deprived. But after a week I was too full to eat my normal amounts. Not just not having seconds, I couldn't eat my normal first plate. I did not WANT to eat it. Wow!
At the end of the first month I had lost around 5lbs.
Month 2 and 3 I had been hovering over 4-6lb fluctuations. (plus, Queen size nylons no longer stay up!) I was definitely eating less food. And I lost my desire for sweets almost entirely. Even when I eat them I am not excited about them, they just don't appeal to me so much. Amazing! Normally I can pack away a lb of chocolate a day during PMS. Not interested now.
Even the massive salty cravings are greatly diminished. Though I do still get them. At the very least I still enjoy them a lot.
Now that month 3 is about over I weighed myself on New Years Eve and was happy to see that I had hit the 6lb mark! I was thrilled! I rewarded myself, too.
But I didn't gain weight!
Today I am proud to say that I have hit the 11lb mark! Three days later, I went from a 6lb loss to 11lb loss. I am not sure what I am more excited about, losing 11 lbs or actually being under 190. I started at 201.5 lbs and today I am 189.8. (believe me, I weighed myself 8 times this morning, because I can't believe it!)
I don't know why I can't find the information, but Sensa has shown that with women they tend to go slowly until after the third month when the lbs start falling off quickly. I kept hoping that was true. Now we are about to find out.

Wow! Good for you! I, on the other hand, have gained a few lbs with all the partying we've been doing lately. I had really wanted to be in "onederland" by Christmas...but I'm still a LOOONNNNG ways away from that magical number.
That is fabulous! What a moral booster that must have been! Here's to a new year and hoping that you continue to lose.
Me? I'll just stick with my own form of weight loss for the next three months. I checked my weight this morning and I have still only managed to gain 5.5lbs, even after going on this diabetes diet and eating way more than I have the entire pregnancy. My glucose numbers have been good and my ketones are coming down, I just haven't seen any weight gain this time.

You go girl!!
WOO HOO!! Keep it up! You are doing super, and I am really glad that Sensa is working for you! I can't wait to start dropping pounds off again. Maybe I will be able to walk better. Still praying for labor to start this week on it's own!
