1Body4Sixty - Day 10

Peggy - 200 (-2.0; -16.0)

This morning I weighed in at 200 lbs., which is down sixteen from my starting weigh of 216 lbs. 1Body4Life Weight Loss has a starting weight of 219 lbs. for me. However, that is fully clothed. Without clothes, my scale said 216 lbs. at the start of the HCG diet so that is the figure that I have been using. I was up five times during the night.

Breakfast was two cups of coffee w/Stevia.

Lunch was a boiled egg, salad with cherry tomatoes and Walden Farms Creamy Bacon Dressing. I forgot to add my red onion. A couple hours later I had an orange.

Dinner was 4 oz. chicken broiled with garlic and sea salt, a cup of asparagus with strawberries for dessert. Skipped the bread sticks but did have a few celery sticks with Walden Farms Bleu Cheese Dressing. (No, I am not getting paid by Walden Farms!)

I am feeling great and have unbelievable energy. Although only 25% through the forty day HCG diet, I feel as though I may have become boring eating my basic same meals. I am not yet bored with the meals, however there are alternatives that I have not used but will consider in the near future: shrimp, cabbage soup, crab, etc.

1Body4Forty - Day 10

Amy – 160.4 (-2.0; 11.9 Total)

I can’t believe I lost another 2 lbs today, but I’m just so happy it didn’t go up.  I’ll take it!  Despite having the full 7 oz of Delmonico steak last night, I went down in weight and it did seem to help flush out my body this morning which is good.  All of that water I drank yesterday (at least 5-6 bottles) seems to have helped too.

After a decent night’s sleep of 9 hours, I had 3 cups of coffee this morning and didn’t eat lunch until noon.  I had baked chicken marinated in white wine vinegar and Cajun spices and a ‘bruschetta’ salad with spinach, chopped tomato, onion, fresh garlic & balsamic vinegar.  Very, very yummy!  I had my first fruit of strawberries and stevia at 2 pm.

I was able to eat dinner until 8 pm, after errands and grocery shopping, so unfortunately I had a 1/4 hamburger patty (unweighed because I was in a hurry to cook the 2^nd one for my kid) cooked with Chicago spice mix.  I had a can of cold asparagus because again that was the quickest thing I could do.  I followed with my second fruit of an orange and  a nice warm cup of chamomile tea with stevia later. 

Better planning on my part would have kept me from being so hungry and in such a hurry to eat.  I should have paid better attention and had my second fruit late in the afternoon instead.

At 10 days out of 40, we’re now 25% through our diet!  30 more to go!
