YAY, 15 pounds! I prefer the 2-5 pounds a day but I know that is especially rare and probably not going to happen anymore, I think I have slows to the 1 lb every other day. I accept that. My food today was the usual. Chicken for lunch & dinner. 2 cups of hot chocolate for a total of 120 calories. Mushrooms, a tomato and crystal light.
Okay, I was right. You get so don't anxious with this diet because you want the pounds to drop off right away. Not like a normal diet when you wait a week for a 2 pound drop. I was careful about eating today. I had been weighing my chicken but it is annoying so I decided I will just thaw a small chicken breast from the big Costco bag and cut it in half. I figure I am getting 100, 125 calories instead of 87 calories from a 3.5 oz. When I use half of a Costco chicken breast it is 4 oz. I am not going over 500 calories either. Chicken and tomato for lunch & dinner. Hot chocolate & crystal light. Oh yes, a 9pm apple.
I ate ribs & it does this? ARUGH! Well today because of time, I had two trips to the airport I didn't eat a lot. I had a tomato for lunch. ½ of a Wendy's chicken nugget, I ate it not thinking (leftovers from my daughter) then a steak & mushrooms for dinner. I did have my cheating items. Crystal light, sugar free hot chocolate and sugar free breath mints. Those things might add up to 100 cal. I still feel good though. Come on! I am eating healthy for sure, even if the weight stays for a (tiny) bit.
12 pounds in 6 days. Not bad at all. Certainly a lot better than the average of two days a week! Today was my 1st no shot day, I wondered how it would affect me, it didn't. We went to church today which was distracting, not food there so that was good. It is harder with all the kids home, me in the kitchen all day long. Today I didn't have lunch until 3pm. I had steak & tomatoes. I wasn't hungry for dinner at 6 so I just skipped the mean portion and just had two small tomatoes, My body must be wondering WHAT IS UP! No sugar, tomatoes galore… I was certainly tempted today though. Cheyenne made super awesome chocolate chip cookies that I wanted so badly. It was like the breakfast I made everyone on Saturday, hash browns, eggs, orange juice, and bacon. Oh I wanted those hash browns most of all. I have to say I made it though! Again, YAY
for me!
Well today is day 5 and for the first time I don't have a loss. I am not sad as I have lost 10 lbs in 5 days, I can wait a day or so to see change on the scale. Today I had chicken (3.5 oz) and tomato for lunch and steak (3.5) and tomato for dinner. I had a pear later and then read the protocol and found that for some reason pears are not allowed? Anyhow, I guess I will go back to apples even though pears this time of year taste fantastic!
Well it has been 5 days and I have lost 10 lbs, which ROCKS! Today was fine, still need to work on water. I ate 3.5 oz steak & a tomato for lunch, a salad with vinaigrette dressing (5 calories for 2 tablespoons) for a mid day snack and an apple. Then a 3.5 oz steak for dinner with asparagus. I have been trying to be faithful about eating dinner by 6 and no snacks after that either. I am certainly happy with things as it is moving so fast! I still have a TON more to lose but it is always encouraging to have things move fast.
Another good day! Today, I didn't have any
"snacks" other than Crystal Light yum. I was down again to 269 YAY!
1 petite steak 4.0 oz
6 asparagus
1 petite steak 3.6 oz
6 asparagus
So far so good! I am still losing and so far I have not been hungry. Hannah wanted Savannah to make brownies around 9. Lucky for me she asked if I wanted brownies or popcorn (basically for her to make, not for me to eat.) I chose popcorn, I can handle that smell much better than brownies which are my total downfall. I am glad I am the one who buys the groceries so I choose which crap gets brought home. Hopefully this will be good for everyone! I ate: 2 3.5 oz chicken, 2 tomatoes and my cheat, a pear. I didn't realize that wasn't on the allowed list until after I ate it. I don't feel that bad though, isn't an apple and a pear a lot alike anyway? I still need a lot more water than I am drinking though. They say you should have 2 quarts a day and I am nowhere near that!

• Eat nothing for breakfast. You may drink tea or coffee, but it cannot include sugar and you can only have up to one tablespoon full of milk within a 24 hour period. You may use Stevia or Saccharin.
• Lunch
consists of 100 grams (3.5 oz.) of either veal, chicken breast, beef, lobster, fresh white fish, shrimp, or crab. All fat must be removed before cooing the meat and it must be weighed while in its raw state. It must be cooked through grilling or boiling and without any added fat. This meat is to be accompanied by one vegetable. You can choose from the following vegetables:
Lunch also consists of one piece of Melba toast or one grissino breadstick as well as an orange, an apple, one half of a grapefruit, or a handful of strawberries.
• Dinner is the same as lunch, though you are encouraged to mix and match the meats, vegetables, and fruit you choose for each meal.
Okay, I am never sure when I start a diet how well it will go. Thus, I haven't started a diet on well, a while. I have to make it through the first day which can be very hard! It is just so easy to see something good to eat halfway through the day and eat it saying, "I will start again tomorrow". The advantage I guess with this diet is that you freaking give yourself a shot! I didn't want that for nothing either!
Anyhow, I did cheat today if you would even call it that. I have looked around at other people's blogs and such and I can never figure things out. It is like you have to follow the Siemons protocol to the T on some of these things and others add in Kevin Truedeau's stuff (all organic) I guess I am cheating in a very small way which I really don't think matters, my cheat? I got some sugar free hot chocolate and sugar free crystal light drink mix. The hot chocolate has 50 calories per serving. The Crystal light has none. You are allowed 2T. of milk a day, I figure that is the milk in my hot chocolate. The crystal light is because I am a Dr. Pepper addict and well, I wanted a flavored drink!
I am proud of myself. My weight today…274, Down 3 lbs in one day! That rocks. I wonder if it is real or just like water weight. With girls it seems weight can just fluctuate all over the place.
Anyhow, here is my food:
1 apple
12oz hot chocolate
3 oz chicken for lunch, 3 oz chicken for dinner. I must say that these tiny pieces of chicken are my favorite parts!
1 tomato
1pt crystal light
1 cucumber
1 can of V8 juice, oh yes, another 50 calorie cheat. Hello, it is a tomato with spice. Fantastic!
Day 1
Mixing HCG 5000IU
2 cc in HCG
3 cc water into sterile container.
Mix the HCG by knocking it back & forth, not too much
Take the HCG out & put it with the water. This makes 5 ccs total
Inject to the 20 on an insulin syringe for a 200 per day dose.
I gave myself a dose today.
Other tips. You don't want a vacuum in the containers. If you want to take out 3 ccs pull your plunger to 3 ccs and it will just flow out (upside down)
Feelings. I am super tired. I don't know if it was because of a double dose or just me but wow. I have had about 1 liter of water so far. Still trying to drink the green tea. It's not bad, just bland. Wonder if I can just have things that are flavored but liquid? Chicken broth sounds SO GOOD!
My weight 277, ewwww as this was my weight 10 months ago when I was 7 months pregnant.
I haven't had the chance to take photos yet or weigh myself. I really need to do that because that is what this is all about!
What I ate today:
2 tomatoes
3 oz chicken
3 baby carrots
3 small pieces of watermelon 1x2"
