I did so much better yesterday. I fought my urge to eat rather than give into it, which has been my problem lately. I isn't that I have been hungry I have just WANTED to eat but I fought that last night AND then low and behold my 'friend' showed up this morning which really does explain a lot from the last couple of days.
So yesterday I had shrimp and cabbage for lunch and a little lean beef for dinner with an apple for a snack.
This weekend is my daughter's birthday and I know I will be tempted but luckily now I know at least some people really read this and will probably call me out when you see me nibbling on junk so I will fight the urge!

Ok, I know I missed a few days. I have had a rough week. I have actually been up around 2 pounds and I am finally back to where I was the last time I posted. I am still having problems with hunger more than in previous rounds and stress eating is getting to me. I am trying really hard to get over this.
Yesterday, I had a salad from Chick fila for lunch and just a little chicken for dinner with an apple for snack. I was craving the crap out of chocolate though so I wonder if my 'time' is coming earlier than I expect, actually with my mood and a few other factors I am almost positive that is what is going on.
ugh it is totally my fault, I have been slack. I am up 3.3 pounds. I am going to do a version of the steak day today and see if it will work, we are having roast tonight (that is a type of steak, right?) I will just not eat all day and have that tonight and hopefully get the same results....we will see.
I can say I think some of it is 'monthly' weight and I haven't 'gone' today weight but still I also know part of it is 'I don't seem able to stay the heck away from sugar'weight.
One more week that is all I need I can, no I WILL, do it for one more week and then in three days after that DISNEYYYYYYYYYY

I don't have much today about yesterday, I had a salad for lunch but then we had a special tribute to the military and first responders at church so I ended up having to eat bbq or nothing at all, I did keep my portion small and didn't eat dessert. I also have my little friend which is causing water retention so for today I am just happy to have a negative number. Down is down!
My son has speech early today so no time to linger! Have a great day!!!

I would be a little upset, I stuck to the protocol completely and only down .9. Let's face it though, .9 is still pretty good and my 'little friend' decided to stop by today so considering that, and the bloating I feel from it, I will take .9, down is down. If things go like they usually do when my friend comes I will have a much better number tomorrow and I might even be in the 10 pound window.
With all the bad news from yesterday, actually achieving my 199 is more important than ever(to me, let's face it I am not delusional enough to think it means a hill of beans in the big scheme of things to anyone else, lol)
Today is just one day closer to 2016....make it a good one!

Woo Hoo, I broke the 50 mark! Now just 21 pounds to go to make my goal. It is hard to believe I am technically only halfway through this round! I don't have much to say today, it is pay day so I have to grocery shop so I am trying to get ready so I can head out as soon as possible. I am out of ALL of my acceptable foods except chicken so I really need to stock up. Thankfully crab legs are on sale cause I need some variety in my protein!
that is about all for today. Have a great weekend!

Ohhh sooo close to 50 total lost so far! I am relatively comfortable saying I will hit it by the weekend (except my 'special friend' will be visiting soon. I hope that doesn't through me off course)
Anyway, so yesterday I had a little stir fry beef and bok choy for lunch and then grilled chicken and romaine lettuce salad for dinner. I don't think I actually remembered to eat any fruit though and I wonder if that isn't why I didn't actually lose a little more. Today's goal is to make sure I get my two pieces of fruit in. Well the little guy wants to read some books so it is time for me to run.
(for those not in the 'know' that means round 1phase 3 day 19)

Maintenance is going well. I have had one change, I started taking birth control pills. My mood has been all over the place particularly just before my time so when given the choice of birth control or Prozac I went with the birth control. My primary concern is having the birth control cause weight gain. It is only day two but so far I am actually still losing weight, even after being seduced by a jar of Nutella last night, so all is ok.
On a side note, today has started off beautifully, it is 8:30 and my first child JUST woke up, can't remember the last time I was actually allowed to sleep until 8 am!!!!

Sorry posts are a little erratic right now. Mostly things are boring during this round. I did want to update that my new supply has come in, making it so much harder to wait to start the next round. The good thing is I haven't ordered my mixing kit yet so I can't really do anything until I get that part. Maintenance is going well. Although I am actually a little worried I have lost more than 2 pounds since my last shot(don't get me wrong I am thrilled of every pound I drop but the protocol says I shouldn't be at this time.)

Not much to say, seem to be maintaining pretty well. I have 1 week and 1 day until I can begin eating starches and sugars again! I really just want some chips and guacamole!
That also means only 4 weeks and 1 day until I begin round 2. I am sooo ready to start seeing pounds come off again rather than worrying about staying at the same weight!
I am concerned I may not be eating enough. It is that horribly hot time of year when nothing sounds good! Also, my period is being very strange, it doesn't want to start but acts like it should be so I don't know what that is about and not sure if it is connected to maybe the extremely quick weight loss. Hopefully that will resolve soon because I can't start round two next month until AFTER my time starts....

Yes I am up a little, I slipped and ate a rice krispy treat. Also it is my time of the month which should be popping up any time now. (joy) As much as I am craving junk right now I am lucky that is all I messed up!
On the other hand, I want to share the discovery I made. Ok well I didn't discover them but I have recently tried shirataki noodles. They are marketed as Miracle noodles. They come from a root in Asia and they are wonderful. They resemble glass noodles but they are free, free from calories, free from carbs free from everything. They can be eaten at any phase of this diet which I think is going to be a big assist with my next HCG round. They can be kind of pricy but if you sign up for Amazon's subscribe and save you receive 15% off AND if you go through Ebates you can get 3% cash back on every grocery purchase from Amazon. Totally worth a try!
In the meantime I have to say I am not enjoying all the food I have to eat now. That being said, I am off to eat some breakfast....Good day all!

I am officially the lowest I have been since starting, all the 'time of the month' yo yoing seems to have finally balanced out!
Yesterday, I had a grilled chicken salad for lunch and crablegs for dinner(can't beat a diet that lets you enjoy crab legs!).
Drank a ton of black coffee and unsweetened tea(both iced and hot)
I also took about a 2 mile walk, I wasn't trying to win any races just wanted to get my son to take a nap (which he did).
I am going to try to fit these walks in at least 3 days a week from now on.
I still have 23 days left on this round, OHHH I hope this speed of loss continues. When I hit forty two days I will take two weeks off from the shots and then do another 42 day round on the shots, at that point I will take a month off. At that time I will evaluate where I stand. If I stay on the track I am on now I will have lost at least 40 lbs this time, that will leave me 54 or so to go. I will probably want to do at least one more round of shots after that but possibly two depending on how things go during my vacation in December.....for now I am very happy with how things are going!
I have to take my daughter to camp this morning so this will be short and sweet....

My period actually started yesterday, I don't know how long it will take to level out but I hope it happens soon. We went to the beach, the rest of the family snacked on twizzlers and pringles but I stayed strong. Actually I did make my day kind of screwy, I was going to try to do an apple day but it turns out on the beach in the heat is NOT the time to do that. So I had two apples for my fruit and I had them both at relatively similar times but it was two hours apart. Then I had a grilled chicken salad for lunch and shrimp and asparagus for dinner.
We ended up getting house guests at midnight which is going to kill me today because we were up until 2am talking. (my step son's came by because their mother, who they were SUPPOSED to stay with had to worry more about herself than where her boys would sleep and told them sorry I am out of here heading to my honeymoon.) But I digress, anyway, today would be a no shot day anyway but since my 'time' has started I will be taking a break until my 'time' is up.
Off to have some coffee, I fear I will drinking a lot of that today, I NEVER in a hundred years would have imagined I would be drinking BLACK coffee!

I knew the 5lbs yesterday were too good to be true. I am still down from before the huge drop though and I feel I know what happened, my period. I start today. The literature I have read said to expect this but that it would level back out by the end of the "visit"....
we will see, I did also cave to soup in a cup noodles (of all things) last night and had a few noodles. I am giving myself that as period weakness and getting back on track today.
The lit does also say to halt shots during the time of month, so since it hasn't completely started yet I will take today and break until it ends....this should be INTERESTING!
