1Body4Sixty - Day 33

Peggy - 187 (-1.0; 29.0)

This morning I weighed in at 187 lbs., down 29 lbs. from my starting weight of 216 lbs. I slept 9 hours and was up 3 times. I drank 64 oz of water.

Breakfast was two cups of coffee w/Stevia.

Lunch was 3.5 oz. salmon (usually reserved for the second part of the program) and spinach. Strawberries were dessert.

Dinner was 4 oz.. lean ground round patty with asparagras & two breadsticks. Again strawberries was dessert.

I realized that since starting the HCG diet, I have NOT had to use the anti acids on my night stand that I needed EVERY night before!!!!!

1Body4Forty – Maintenance Day 1

Amy – 155.4 (-0.0; -16.9 Total)

Today I officially begin maintenance, so I will need to carefully add in more calories and fats into my diet, while still staying away from carbs and sugars as much as possible.  This is usually a bit difficult at first because you are so used to eating such a very simple diet.  I am so used to eating steamed vegetables without any adding oil that it doesn’t even sound good or appeal to me at the moment.

I started with 3 cups of coffee and a breakfast of a couple of hard boiled eggs and some strawberries with stevia.  At lunch I had about an 7 oz broiled steak with a tomato and no-cal Caesar dressing.

For dinner I had a larger hamburger patty with cheese on it and a tomato with real blue cheese dressing and some steamed broccoli with spices.  Boy, I’m stuffed so I’m wondering whether I ate too much or am just not used to a larger meal after 4 weeks.

We had a skating exhibition tonight and afterwards I headed to go out with a friend for a drink (hard cider) and an appetizer.  I ate a chicken finger with some honey mustard sauce, but  I managed to keep myself away from the waffle fries (for the most part) and only ate 2 small ones.  They really are not appealing to me at this point which is a good thing as I go out into a world of food temptations…

This morning I weighed in at 188 lbs., down 29 lbs. I slept 9 hours and was up 2 times. I drank 64 oz of water.

Breakfast was two cups of coffee w/Stevia.

Lunch was 3.5 oz. chicken breasr with broccoli and an apple for dessert.

Dinner was 4 oz..ground round with taco seasoning, lettuce, salsa, two bread sticks.

Evening snack was strawberries with Stevia.

COUNT DOWN….ONLY EIGHT DAYS LEFT!  My goal has always been to high 170 lbs. BY THE END OF THE FORTY DAYS. Oh, to be in the seventies again for the first time in over a decade!!!!!!!!

1Body4Forty - Day 32

Amy – 155.4 (-0.0; -16.9 Total)

No change, so going into maintenance, 155.4 will be my weight that I need to maintain when I start vacation in a week.

I have my couple of cups of coffee in the morning and lunch at 12:30 of 2 hard-boiled eggs and a chopped tomato with 1 T. of Walden Farms blue cheese dressing.  At 2 pm, I have an apple with cinnamon on it. 

For dinner tonight before a skating practice, I had 5 oz of broiled steak and steamed fresh broccoli.  I am already starting to feel the HCG wearing off because I am starting to get hungrier.  I still need to remember that I need to keep my water intake up going forward.

1Body4Forty - Day 31

Amy – 155.4 (+1.4; -16.9 Total)

I guess yesterday’s choices were a mistake because I went back up 1.4 pounds this morning.  Hopefully I can at least stay here or go back down as I go into my temporary maintenance.  This is my 2^nd day on after shots and before maintenance. 

I have 3 cups of coffee in the morning and strawberries & stevia around 11:30 am.  Lunch later of baked chicken marinated in Chicago spices, along with ½ can of chilled asparagus.  I had my second fruit of an orange around 3 pm.

For dinner tonight we watched a hockey game at Buffalo Wild Wings so I had their blackened Cajun chicken salad with tomato, cucumber & onion.  I dipped the tines of the fork into blue cheese dressing to limit the amount I used.
