Sunday - P3D25

Greetings and salutations - Happy Sunday!!! As some may know, I am a member of www.happilythinerafter.com . It is a great site and is dedicated to those taking HCG. They have several forums for whatever level you are on w/ your HCG. For example, there are several forums w/ P3 friendly recipes (yes, there is some P2 recipes, you just have to watch for the "creative" ones) then even have an area where people have posted before and after pictures. I am in awe each time I check out the latest postings. Each time I go in there, it makes me wish I had taken before and afters. But not to worry, when I start R2 again, I will take before pictures, I will even use an accurate tape measure to take my measurements!!! Anyhow, when I start to post in here (while on P3/4 anyway) I am going to most my weight as of the current day, and then will post my meals from what was eaten yesterday, to get to todays weight. Make since? So, it will look something like this:

DAY: 25
Today' weight: 201.9
# above/below LIW: -3.5
# gain/loss from yesterday: +1.0

Here is my meal breakdown:
B - some McD's apples (I ate 1/2 my dog got the other 1/2) & 24 iced Americano w/ SF white choco. powder
S - 2 almond/agave truffles
L - Thurston County Roll (8-10 pieces) made with Garlic albacore tuna, avocado & cucumber on top of salmon, white tuna, ahi tuna, yellow tail & red snapper with 3 kinds of tobiko (rice & seaweed - wasabi & low sodium soy sauce)
S - hand full of seasoned cashews & hand full of dried mango's.
D - Chicken Cordon Blue (breading picked off as much as possible), broccoli, cauliflower & thin slice (1/4 inch) wedge of watermelon.
S - 24oz iced Americano w/ SF white chocolate SYRUP (drank at 11:00pm).

I didn't bother adding the calorie counts. Since I had lost almost 5lbs being sick, I knew I had some wiggle room. On thing that I have noticed is that under any other diet plan (execept this one) as soon as I start feeling better, I hit the carbs (sugar & breads) hard and heavy. I am proud to say that I refrained from doing this and didn't give into temptation!

As you can see (by the sushi roll), I finally added rice to my palate! And let me tell you how wonderful it was!!! No, I wouldn't do that, you can only imagine though....wait, yes, I will.... this is my blog! It was so freakin' good! If I hadn't been so full I could easily have ordered another one. I temporarily forgot how much I enjoy my rice! So, I had a bit of a weight gain but, I don't necessarly chalk it up to the sushi (raw fish & sodium?). Instead, I think it was the fact that I didn't start drinking my water until about 5:00 last night (BAD GIRL!!! I should have started at 8am) and I went to the casino (lost 1 of my 2 shirts) where I purchased my iced americano w/ SF white chocolate SYRUP instead of the normal powder. The syrup is much sweeter, contains dairy and is higher in calorie count. Oh, well, its all par for the course.

Today brings a new day which I will glady take. I get to work today at my side job and one of my favorate "treats" is the sea salt caramels and caramel covered marshmallows - I must not go near them!!! I will be a success and I will get there....Just give me a minute cause I am running late :)

Well, have a great day and lighter later!!!
