Start weight 146.4
Today's weight 138.9
Loss/Gain -.9
I'm playing catch up with my blog. Have been ubber busy and then the site was down when I was finally able to log on. I was happy that I'm not down to .4 and .2 losses, especially for the first week. I can live with .9 if it keeps it up. I tried something different today. I added broccoli and zucchini just to see if it makes a difference. Again......these foods are not on the program, but some have been able to eat these and still lose weight so I thought I'd give it a try.

R3P2 - Day 4
Start weight 146.4
Today's weight 139.8
Gain/Loss -.4
I was a little disappointed that by day 4 I'm down to only losing .4! I know this is my third round and I'm down to my last 15 pounds, but.......really???? .4! In looking over my last round, it surprised me to see how often I cheated, even a little. An extra grissini here, an extra piece of fruit there, or even bigger cheats. I'm trying to be super good for the next 17 days. No Cheating!!!
Breakfast - 5
Coffee with vanilla cream stevia
Lunch - 226
100 g chicken breast
2 c lettuce
apple
grissini
Dinner - 180
100 g tilapia
2 c cabbage
strawberries
grissini
Total calories - 411
I upped my drops to 15 3 x per day for the next couple of days to try and overcome feeling hungry. Something I did not experience with Rounds 1 & 2. I think it helped today.

R3P2 - Day 3
Start weight 146.4
Today's weight 140.2
Gain/Loss -1.6
So I've lost 6.2 pounds in 2 days. I had gained 5.7 from my load days but I was up 2 pounds from my LDW in round 2. So I'm almost back to were I was at the end of Round 2. Today was tough! And I mean tough! I was hungry by 10:00 in the morning which is rare. I had some grissini and coffee to ward off the grumbly in my tummy. Also had an apple at about 3:00. I think I'll up my drops starting tomorrow until I can get this under control.
Breakfast - 5
Coffee with vanilla cream stevia
Mid morning - 20
Grissini
Lunch - 150
100 g turkey breast
2 c zucchini
Afternoon snack - 80
Apple
Dinner - 255
100 g steak
2 c asparagus
strawberries
grissini
Total calories - 510
Went over my calories a bit today but I've been way below so far so I'm hoping it won't effect the scales in the morning.

Today's weight 141.8

I don't hink I've ever lost that much overnight before! Wow!!! Of course all of it is weight I've gained on my load days. In fact I'm still up .7 from my load days. Wouldn't it be nice if I lost as much tomorrow?!?!? I'm hoping for 2 so that I'm under the 140 mark again.
Some are having success with adding some different veggies to their diet so I tried zucchini this afternoon, just to see.

R3P2 - Day 1
Start weight 146.4
I managed to gain 5.7 pounds on my load days and I had already gained up to the 2 pound limit. So I'm actually starting this round at 7.7 above my LDW of 138.7 for round 2 and I'm not happy about it! I had hoped to stay at the 140 mark or just above it so that it would be easier to get down to 125. However, things didn't work out quite like I had imagined them in my head. So instead of needing to lose 15 pounds this round, I need to lose 21.4. I've never lost that much in a 21 day round before. I think the best I did was close to 19. So we'll just have to wait and see how this round goes. I was hoping it would be my last!
The wedding yesterday was wonderful. I don't think I've ever seen a bride so beautiful. It was an outdoor wedding and other than the wind and the dirt, it was a lot of fun. Very rustic. My daighter, one of the bridesmaids, was stunning.
Since I've been having a problem blogging lately, I'm going to go ahead and list what I'm eating today even though I haven't had dinner yet. I already know what I'm having.
Breakfast - 5
Coffee with vanilla cream stevia
Lunch - 181
100 g chicken breast
2 c lettuce
strawberries
grissini
Dinner - 222
100 g steak
1 c onions
grissini
Total calories - 408
Need to hit the store for veggies and fruit. Decided to forgo fruit tonight as all I have besides strawberries are some old apples I need to throw away!

R2P3 - Day 23
Start weight 161.4
LDW 138.7
Today's weight 140.9
I'm officially over my 2 pound limit but was having company over so I couldn't do a steak day. I'm loading again tomorrow, so I'm just viewing this as a pre-load loading day. I chose tomorrow to start loading because we're involved in a friends wedding this weekend and the festivities start tomorrow with the rehearsal and rehearsal dinner. The wedding will be on Saturday. I'll start the VLCD on Sunday.
I'm going to cook on Sunday so I can have meat ready for my husband's lunches since he's starting this round with me. I'm hoping I don't gain too much during my load or I'll be needing to lose 20 pounds this round and that would be pushing it!
It's late and I'm tired. Will try to do better at blogging during my last round......hopefully!

R2P3 - Day 20
Start weight 161.4
LDW 138.7
Today's weight 139.3
Gain/Loss -0
Not bad considering that I haven't kept track since Day 16......4 days ago and I'm still the same weight! I haven't been counting calories like I did last maintenance, I've just been eating when I feel hungry and eating P3 foods. Except for last Friday......I blew it big time! Sushi for lunch with a beer and junk food that night. Didn't have the guts to weigh in on Saturday morning either but I'm guessing I was up at least 2 pounds.
I'd like to be closer to my LDW or even under before beginning my load days Friday and Saturday. We have wedding rehearsals and dinner Friday night and the wedding on Saturday so I thought those would be good load days. Since I only need to lose another 15 pounds, I'm hoping this will be my last round on the HCG.
My husband has decided to do this next round with me. He only needs to lose about 15 pounds too, so it should be interesting to see if he can handle it and who makes their goal first. Of course, I'm not opposed to losing more than the 15 either! I know that if he sticks with it he'll lose more weight than me. He always does! But this time I don't mind since I'm already down so much. It was a real bummer when he decided to do Weight Watchers with me and he lost 35 pounds in 3 months, while it took me 5 months to lose 20!
This next round should put me at my pre-pregnancy weight, which I haven't weighed in almost 22 years now. My youngest is 21 and I remember I put on 10 pounds as soon as the doctor said 'pregnant'! What a difference HCG has made in my life!
Breakfast
3 scrambled eggs
3 oz ham
1 oz cheese
1/2 c onions
Lunch
2 c sauteed mushrooms
1 tbls butter
1/2 oz cheese
Dinner
mango
strawberries
banana
blueberries
almonds
greek yogurt
Made a huge fruit salad then added greek yogurt and chopped raw almonds. Yummy!!!
Since I'm getting ready for round 3, I'm not eating as much meat. I've been filling up on fresh fruit and veggies I won't be able to have like mushrooms. I had wanted to start exercising this time on maintenance to get rid of my poochy stomach but things haven't worked out that way. I've literally been swamped and won't see daylight until JULY!!! So I guess exercising will just have to wait until then.
