I keep telling myself that I'm going to give it my ALL! It's only 35 days left. One day at a time. I was up till like 3am after watching the boxing match and couldn't settle at home. I've only gotten like 4 hours of sleep. Today will be a restful day. Taking out one of my fruits for the day and making it another veggie serving.

Day 7...188(+0.4) Yesterday was quite the busy day. Got up and went to my nieces for coffee, then hit the gym for an hour, went to store for new measuring tape and then Barnes & Nobles Book store. Didn't get home to eat till evening and was starving. I had the orange b4 the workout and then at 5pm stuffed the chicken w/all 12oz celery planned for day in 1 sitting. Then at 7pm had my lunch plan. I was stuffed but knew I had to get in my calories. So I'm up 4oz this morning. No big deal

Day 8...188.6(+0.6) S o I'm up a bit more this morning. I think it may be a couple of reasons. Two days in a row I went to the gym and 2 days in a row I gained. Not peeing much so I believe I'm retaining some water. Also last night I gave in to a heaping tsp of PB. I've been wanting it for days so I took 1 and left the jar in the cabinet. Hopefully now I can move on without the daily fight of wanting it. One more thing is that this was my LDW on Round 1 so it's a set point. There's 3 good reasons for it to be this today. Today I'm going to try Talapia. I hear it's good and I don't like fish. Tunafish I like but I've never liked the others but I've been trying new things to live a lifetime of better eating
Oh....my clothes do feel loser this morning!
Meals
snack~ orange
Breakfast~ green tea w/stevia
Lunch~ 4oz Talapia w/6oz lettuce (hcg approved dressing) & 4 melba snack crushed to try and use it as a breading for fish.
Dinner~ 4oz steak w/3oz onions & 4 romaine heart leaves (like a sandwich)
snack~apple
Calories 499 Carbs 60.6(Being that I've been a lowcarber for the last couple of years this high of an amount looks scary to me but on hcg your not supposed to focus on those numbers.
Day 9...187.4(-1.2) Yesterday went well although I did still have a wee bit of thoughts of PB lol. But I stayed on plan, no workout and guess what...a drop! So no workouts for a little while. I'm very busy around the house with cleaning and taking care of my daycare kids so it's not like I don't get my heart rate going at all. I ate the tilapia yesterday and liked it
today I'll be trying to make mock mash Mmmmm

Day 10...186.2(-1.2) Yes! Down some more. I think I passed that 188 set point for good now
. The mock mash yesterday was very tasty. I still have 5 servings left. Today I'm trying the chicken fingers and celery root fries. Also will be making beef and broccoli stir fry for dinner. Its so nice to be trying all new stuff. I look forward to it. I got to the health food store yesterday and bought the root, 2 liquid stevias chocolate & vanilla cream and baking cocoa. Looking forward to also making/trying chocolate delights. I'll be doing that tomorrow. The liquid stevia's I've been putting in my tea and it's sooooo good! According to fitday I'm just about out the obese range....Yay now I'll only be overweight LMAO!

Today I'm going to try the tilapia again but breading it in the way I did the chicken fingers yesterday.

Day 13...185(+0.4) Yesterday I did well eating clean but because I didn't feel well at all I gave into a shot of Nyquil. Woke up this morning up 4oz...UGH! So I decided to do an apple day. I'm retaining water, I just know it. So I'm in bed drinking water minimally and nice hot tea and eating apples LOL.
Meals
6 apples throughout the day
Calories 431 Carbs 114.3 (WOW, scary)
Day 14...189.2(+4.2) Yes you read the weight right! I just wiped out 2 weeks worth of work for one evening of cheating. UGH!! I"m so mad and disgusted with myself. I know the outcome and yet I let that little demon inside get the best of me. It was comforting for a whole maybe 15 min for taste ONLY. Now today I feel sick not only from a cold but now upset stomach. My body reacts this badly to the other stuff for a reason. It's toxic!!! I need to get that through my head. Today I'm eating back on plan. I'm going to try my hardest to learn the right way. That's all I can say. UGH I know better....why????
Meals

Lots of tea and water
Calories 442 carbs 10.1
Day 15...190.2(+1) Despite my efforts yesterday I'm up another lb. WTF!!! I could so kick myself in the ass now for cheating! Today I'm going to try the smoothmove tea and the night cantaloupe trick for getting rid of water weight. Hope it works. I'm wondering if I'm pms'ing for TOM already. It would be too soon but who knows. I always have one indicator that it's coming. A pimple that always comes in the same spot every time before it comes and I've got it. Maybe? Guess I just have to keep moving along. Somethings got to give as long as I stick to plan.
Meals
B~ smoothmove tea
L~3.5oz chicken w/3oz celery
D~4oz 95% lean ground beef with 4 romaine leaves
snack b4 bed~ 1/2 cantaloupe w/large glass of water
Calories 522 Carbs 41.8
Day 16...187(-3.2) Headed back down. Couldn't find the smoothmove tea so I just got some magnesium citrate and it cleaned me right out and got all the extra water down. Back on plan, hoping to be back to my lowest weight by friday and continue on. Never did the cantaloupe.

Day 17...186.2(-0.8) Back to where I was exactly a week ago. Waisted a week...UGH so I continue to move on. 23 days left to go. Yesterday went well and today is Thanksgiving. I have my meals planned out. No turkey or other things for me. I ruined that idea Sunday LOL. I'm okay with it though
I will get a nice Christmas dinner within my calorie limit

Day 18...185.4(-0.8) Yesterday went well considering it being Thanksgiving. I did well all day with all the many temptations. BUT I woke up sometime in the night and ate a bunch of PB off the spoon (me weakness). So mad at myself this morning for doing that after doing so well all day and afraid to weigh in after finally coming back down after the Sunday cheat. I got lucky this time and still went down. I need to remember I may not always be so lucky and I need to stay on plan. Been on almost 3 weeks already and I'm only down a few lbs from my round 1 LDW.
