HCG Diet- Monday Monday

It's Monday and I'm not ready to go back to work. boo hoo. I had a very exhausting but fun weekend.
I love Phase 3 of this diet, I can live on this forever.


I haven't been real religous about blogging the last week. This weekend I had a great workout at the park. Riding, running, climbing and taking on the HILL. Saturday I also got the yard mowed and the cars washed. I was pooped at the end of the day.

Yesterday morning, I went on my first every real mountain bike trail ride with a friend. WOW, can you sad addicted. I could really get into this. It was treacherous at times, but I think that's only because I hadn't done it before. I wasn't familiar with the trails, so I was extra cautious. We only did about 6 miles, but it was quite rigorous. The weather turned sour and sent up packing. Next time. My friend was very informative and took it slow with me so that I could get the hang of it.

Here is a little video of some of the trails that we conquered.

I'm really looking forward to doing this again, and plan to hit all the mountain bike trails in my county. That there is a goal.

This morning, I went for a bike ride and then hit the park for my boot camp. Every time I think it's getting easier, the trainer switches it up and adds a new exercise. Booyah. I will not quit.

I should have eaten before I left. I keep forgetting to do that, and it affects my performance.

There's always tomorrow. I'm hoping that Wednesday morning, I will be doing another ride at a different park. Wooohooo!

I love the feeling of kicking my own butt. I haven't felt this damn good in years.

What a Feeling!

Yay! for me. I am happy to report that I have lost all of those unexplainable 4 pounds that I gained 3 days ago. PLUS an additional pound. 250's gone, 240's gone, 230's gone. Day 26 of Round 1 Phase 2 of the HCg Diet and I am down 27 pounds. Only 3 pounds away from my secon mini-goal of 30lbs. Can't wait to put on that second ring. 16 days left of VLCD and 9 pounds to reach my round goal. So if I lose a little over .5lbs a day, I should hit it. Wooohoooo!

I'm stressing little bit because my schedule will be different today. I have to teach a class so my normal work hours will be different. 10am to 6pm. Which means I will have to take my lunch with me. I'm really not sure if I'm ready to try to eat on protocol at a restaurant. I know that I will be invited to lunch. I will pack some roast beef wraps and a fruit. Depending on where they decide to go. I will go with and take my lunch or try to stay POP.

We'll see how this day pans out!

Well I ended up eating with the guys in the cafeteria. Luckily, They had a grilled chicken salad. But I had basalmic vinegar and that is not on protocol. Hopefully it wont affect me negatively.

Think I'll do shrimp and spinach for dinner.
