Day.....

So I weighed this am...and gained .2 lbs.....yes gained.....again. So I decided to discontinue the drops. I can't do apple days all the time to lose weight, and I haven't been feeling great while taking them. PLUS...I had a health screening this am and the nurse said that my glucose levels were very low and that I needed to eat...so now my plan is to exercise and just get in a routine of healthy eating and just an overall healthier life! I plan on weighing in once a month to monitor my progress, but I don't want to become obsessed with my weight. It's not an important since I'm not on the HCG drops anymore.

So we will see how it all goes...I will still continue to post however.

Day 9

Well...today was...no good

Since I didn't lose any weight and actually gained weight..I thought I would do a steak day...bad idea, especially when you are going to the Texas Tech Football game in 100 degree heat and have to walk forever to get to the stadium, so to say the least I ended up cheating, and ate a buffalo chicken sandwich. I figured it was a better option than passing out. I really wanted to quit this diet, but after tears and talking to my husband, he pointed out that he thought I would be disappointed in myself if I quit...which he was right about.

So thankfully I have a husband who will point that out.

I have been feeling super emotional lately though, which makes this really hard...ugh. I'm just so ready to lose this stupid weight that I gained, and ready to maintain it off. Hopefully this won't set me back too much. Trying to be optimistic :)

Day 8

Day 8 Weight 124.6

Didn't loose, but it was probally due to that stupid tortilla

11:00 Drops

2:00 Shrimp with TBSP salsa, 5 strawberries with stevia, 1 grisini

8:00 ground beef, zucchini, 1 Grisini

So I realized I have not been putting down all my drops times, I am taking them 3 days a day, I just keep forgetting to write the time down, and I have been getting all of my 64 oz of water in per day!

Day 7

Day 7 Weight 124.6

8:15 Drops

11:00 Baked apple with stevia and cinnamon

1:15 Ground beef with salsa, tomatoe

10:00 brisket with pico in tortilla (NOT ok to eat)

Day 6

Weight this am was...125.4, which means I'm down exactly 5 pounds!

8:30 Drops

11:30 Grisini bread stick

1:00 "Chowder"....this was not amazing and I would not make again, however it was feeling, I only made it half way through...it has a can of diced tomatoes, herbs, tilapia, it makes 2 servings of protein and your vegetable. I only made it through due to taste and the fact that it filled me up...

6:00 Drops (probably should have taken them earlier...)

8:00 Ground beef with TBSP of salsa, baked apple with Stevia and cinnamon, leftover cucumbers in vinegar from yesturday

9:00 Drops

I did eat more than 3.5 oz of the ground beef at dinner because I didn't get in all my protein at lunch, so hopefully that will be ok

AND...while looking for recipes that I can use on this diet I came across Miracle Noodles. Alot of people where talking about eating these on the diet...so I'm looking into them. Plus I wanted to see if mayeb one of the Asian markets in town has them..

Day 5

Weight as of Day 5...126.2! That means I'm down 4.2 pounds total

Bad news...I woke up this morning feeling TERRIBLE! Like...get sick terrible. So I ended up taking medicine and going back to sleep. SO...I didn't get my first drops until 11:00, so hopefully that won't mess anything up.

Since I woke up so late, I didn't eat my lunch until 3:15 which was ground beef with a TBSP of salsa, baked an apple with water in the bottom of the pan, mixed cinnamon and stevia and put in the middle of the apple, baked at 350 degrees for 25 min. It was delicious! I came sooo class to cheating, because I wanted something sweet SO bad, so that apple was my saving grace, plus...I don't want to NOT lose or gain.

Dinner wasnt until 8:00ish, which was ground beef with salsa again, and cucumbers with vinegar, salt, pepper, and garlic. I've been SO hungry at night, so I thought I might try to eat later ( I stay up late, so hopefully it will be ok)

So hopefully with the late start and late meals, I won't mess anything up, and will still have lost when I weigh in the am!! We will see :(

P.S. I found this site HCG Diet Recipes that has a ton of great ideas on it! With this, you must be creative! As it turns out, you alot more options than I ever thought, which is great!

Weight: 128.2! I can't believe this is actually working so fast!

1:00 Tilapia with McCormicks seasoning, baked over salad with balsamic vinegar

TONS of coffee, tea, and water
