Good morning. It's day 16 of the HCG Diet, Phase 2 VLCD. I back on the right side of the hill again. After a .4lb gain yesterday, I am down 1.3 today. Total loss so far, 21 pounds. I'm going to work out again today, so I will pay close attention to the weight loss/gain tomorrow morning. I was feeling a little constipated so I drank the smooth move tea last night before bed. I didn't quite work the way I thought it would.
Yesterday I decided to try on a pair of smaller jeans and they fit! whoohooo. I have clothes in storage that are smaller. I'm heading to the shed today to see what I can find.
I'm also going to try my miracle noodles today at some point. Need to find some recipes. They say there is an art to cooking them.
Not a clue what the menu for the day is. Maybe roast beef and fish. Not sure yet.
Menu for the day:
Snack: apple, protein juice
Lunch: lean turkey burger, mexican style tomatoes with miracle noodles
Snack: Orange
Dinner: Roast beef lettuce wraps (yes I'm addicted to them), sauteed spinach w onions, grissini
The miracle noodles are the bomb. I rinsed them thouroughly, them put them in a dry frypan on high to get the excess water out and then put them into the tomatoes. Slightly chewy, but not bad. Sure does fool the eye. And I need the fiber. We'll see what the scale says tomorrow.
I also worked out for 20 minutes today. In the past, the next day brings a stall or gain. Keeping track!
