1body4twenty - Day 1

I am finally starting my hcg diet plan today! I had a bit of a late start, but the doctor says I'm good to go, and I'm so ready for this! I woke up late today, so I really started with lunch for the day, and I had a bunch of tater tots! Who remembers eating tater tots when they were young? I do, and I still love them! I also ate an Israeli snack called bamba; imagine cheeto puffs, but they are peanut butter instead of cheese! I then ate 12 pieces of spicy tuna sushi, the brand Amy's mac and cheese, and a Chobani blueberry yogurt. A little later on, I had some smoked gouda cheese and an Amy's tamale verde with cheese. Later, I plan to have some pasta and chicken, and a little while after that, ICE CREAM!! Just trying to eat small snacks whenever I can because I started eating later in the day, and I need to make sure to eat a proper amount before starting phase 2.

As for weight and measurements, I am 5'6", and my starting weight is 167.5.

My starting BMI is 27.1.

waist:35.5 in.
hips:43.25 in.
right thigh: 24.4 in.
left thigh: 25 in.
calves: right and left are both 16.5 in.
right ankle: 9.5 in.
left ankle: 9 in.
chest: 37.25/37.5 in.
upper right arm: 13 in.
upper left arm: 11.5 in.
neck: 13.5 in.

So that's it for now! Finishing up today with some more delicious food, and some tv accompanied by mint chocolate chip ice cream! Be back soon for binge day number two!!
