LM Day 25 120.3

Still feeling under the weather, but my tummy's not quite so sensitive, so today was a P2-ish kind of day, food wise. I stuck to proteins, veggies, clean eating, coming in at about 1400 calories. Sometimes the best thing I can do for myself is to eat the foods I ate while on HCG. Simple, healthy nutrition, just more of it.

It was a full day, a sad day, I found out a dear friend passed away in December, in a snowmobiling accident. My heart and mind are full of memories of long chats and phone

LM Day 24 120.3

Well, I guess this tummy bug is good for something LOL.

I stuck to basically an egg day, other than a little cheese and a couple of small granola bars, mostly to calm my tummy, I had a loooong nap this afternoon, and am starting to feel a little more normal again. It was certainly a not fun 24 hours.

I'd love to break back into the teens tomorrow, but we'll see. Not sure that the granola bars won't interfere with that. Ah well, if not tomorrow, then the day after.

And now, a cup of tea

LM Day 23 120.7

A slight decrease, as I continue my focus on high protein, good fats, zero sugar. I did get into the Larabars (love them, they are amazingly good, natural substitutes for a meal, and a yummy snack with a cuppa tea in the afternoon, and a lot of fiber). I also tried an Atkins bar I hadn't tried before, the Coconut Almond Delight bar. I know as an O+ I'm not supposed to have coconut, but honestly, that bar is filling, satisfying and stops the sugar/carb cravings cold! So I guess maybe that's an

LM Days 20, 21 and 22

Weights: Day 20 - 122.2, Day 21 - 120.7

The high weight on Day 20 was due to our church outing (obviously still can't handle bread and highly processed meats - hot dog), and I'd been nibbly all day, ending the day with a late night fruit and yogurt snack. Day 20, I did a steak day, which worked beautifully, although it was a hard steak day, I was hungry and weak for most of the day, but of course that could be the effects of TOM as well.

Today I was 120.8. So in 21 days of maintenance, I

LM Day 19 (121.1)

Well, the arrival of TOM explained the bad attack of the nibblies that I've had for the last couple of days.

Today we had a church event, I had a cookie, and a hot dog, and a diet soda. The rest of the day has been pretty standard P3 style eating, high protein, a bit of veggie and fruit, nice and simple.

I may do a egg day as a corrective day tomorrow, since I have been trying to do two days a week (and having already done a steak day earlier in the week).

I'm finding that having tea

LM Days 15 and 16

(otherwise titled "A Lesson in Consistency")

Weights: Day 15 - 119.6, Day 16 - 120.8

That little gain was all on me. The other half made his famous pineapple upside down cake a couple of days ago, I resisted on my steak day, resisted the next day, and yesterday finally had a bite, which then led to a full serving of it. It's delicious, I thoroughly enjoyed it, now back to work lol.

Two blogs that I read regularly had posts on consistency in the last couple of days. I'd like to

LM Days 11-14

My weights were as follows:

Day 11 - 120.7, Day 12 - 121.1, Day 13 - 122.4 and today, Day 14 - 120.3.

It was a carb heavy weekend, I definitely indulged a bit on carby, salty foods, and yesterday corrected it with a Steak Day.

Today I am eating a low carb day, the only carby thing I had was an Archer Farms fruit bar (not thrilled with it, wasn't worth the sugars or the calories), everything else was with an emphasis on clean eating, low carb. I'd like to maintain the results from the
