Today is my second day of Phase 3 and I feel a cold coming on. I have been doing a Vitamin C flush but not sure how well that is working. I made my first juice concoction yesterday and well, it didn't turn out to well. I used cucumber, spinach, strawberries, blackberries, carrots, golden flaxseed meal and spirulina. Oh and some apple juice to help it in the Blendtec. At first it didn't taste all that great but was filling. That's when I realized I had forgotten the whey protein and so I added it and blended again. Much better!! I bought some gluten free crackers and I just can't stop eating them. They contain flaxseeds, quinoa, sesame seeds and other organic ingredients but are very tasty. I made another trip to Costco yesterday to get some items that I was allowed to when I went on Sunday. I've been craving Nutella. I saw a cooking show where the chef got some heavy whipping cream and a tablespoon of Nutella and let his mixer whip it. It came out like a beautiful mousse and looked absolutely divine!! So guess what I'm making for dessert soon. Well, at least I'm just below my LDW, so we'll see how I do tomorrow.

48 Hrs Done!!

I didn't get a chance to post these last couple of days. Sunday was my last injection so my LDW is 165.8. On Sunday, I made a Costco run since I needed to refuel my vehicle and renew my membership. Well lo and behold, they had a demo for the Blendtec!! I had been debating on purchasing this item so I purchased it. Tomorrow I will be able to make my first smoothie in it. I made a Sam's run as well so I am well stocked with spinach, salad greens, frozen and fresh fruit. I plan on doing the 17 day diet which is the same as carb cycling or the JUDDD system.

Oh isn't alcohol great! Drink and lose weight, haha! I know its a false number and tomorrow it will be another gain. Trying to drink lots of water today to rehydrate myself and flush everything out. I went out to a club with a friend but since I had to work today I only drank 4 beers. It was a bitch to get up this morning but that's the price I pay for wanting to go out on a work night. TOM is taking his time but tomorrow is my last injection, whoo hoo. I can't wait for this round to be over because it was not my greatest achievement for this protocol.

TOM, TOM

Yesterday I received a call from a good friend of mine, who shares my birthday. I had text him on our birthday and suggested we get together to catch and grab a bite to eat. So yesterday was the day. I behaved and only ordered an ham omelet which was served with hash browns and toast, ugh!! I ate the omelet and some of the hash brown and only had 1/2 a slice of toast. When I got home, for dinner was 2 eggs. So this morning, when I got up to get ready for work (4am), to my surprise, TOM arrived!! So the gain is from both what I ate yesterday and TOM. I only have 2 injections left so I'm not skipping or stopping them. Sadly, this has been a very sad round for pounds but inches are gone!! Can't wait for Phase 3 Wednesday morning!! Plus I also need to get more HCG, this was the last of it. Boo hoo!!

Down!!

I can tell TOM is lurking because its very close to my time. Also because I'm retaining water like crazy!!! Yesterday I didn't have to go pee till 6 hours after I started my shift and that was after a large cup of coffee and water!! I'm having the same issue today. I HATE TOM!!! I drew up the rest of my solution and I have 4 injections left. So my last injection with be on Sunday, Superbowl Sunday!!! Then I have to wait the dreaded 3 day clearing. It's funny how the scale isn't showing much of a drop in weight, but everyone has complimented me on how much thinner I look so the inches are coming off but very little pounds. As long as I look good in my clothes, I'm happy, especially without a muffin top!! So as soon as TOM rears his ugly head and leaves the building, I will be happy. I have a tendency to gain 5 pounds with TOM, thanks water retention and constipation!!
