R2P2 Day 4 - Onward & Downward!

P2R2 Starting Weight 03/01/09: 160.0
Yesterday: 160.4
Today: 157.8
Lb. Released Overnight: 2.6
Lb. Released Since Start of VLCD: 2.6
Average Daily Release: 2.6 lb
Total lb. Released with HCG: 22.4

I'm only 0.2 lb over my LIW! I feel this is especially significant, since my LIW was taken in November of 2007. That is solid proof that not only does this protocol work for the short-term, it will also work for you long-term!

Breakfast: coffee
Water, coffee, water, coffee, water...
Lunch: celery with spicy mustard & grilled chicken (I got my scale today!!), 5 strawberries, 1 piece of Melba.
Water, coffee, water, water...
Dinner: Ate dinner @ 10 p.m. because I was over at my dad's house doing laundry all evening (gotta love apartment life). At his house I did have 2 kosher dill pickle spears to stave off hunger. I checked the ingredients, and it looked safe. When I got home, I ate two huge strawberries and poached 1 egg + 3 whites with fresh-ground pepper, salt and about 10 drops of tabasco. YUM!!

Melba is gross. I am making grissini tomorrow. Bleck!

I wanted to let everyone know that I've been getting a lot of support from the people at Happily Thinner After. They are an awesome group of people, many of whom have completed multiple successful rounds of hCG. There are numerous discussion forums, progress photos, blogs, and so much more. I highly recommend it to anyone who wants more support & encouragement during their journey with hCG and/or a comprehensive, realiable source of information.

Hasta manana...

I am so glad to hear that you have maintained so well. That is one of my biggest fears. WOrking this hard and then having it all come back on in a week. I am also happy to see you posting what you eat. I love to see new ideas. Eggs and tabasco... mmmm

Holy mackerels. Very good start Amie! And, your scale is arrived, haha, finally. Your food choices make me desire it also. Sounds very yummy.

Btw, it is very comforting to know that you kept steady on your weight all that time! I am already thinking how to live life after this HCG thing you know. Pretty like it not to be drinking. Pretty like it not to be so food-addicted at the moment. Pretty like the idea of maintaining a different lifestyle after all this, you know what I mean? I just honestly don't know if, once everything is over, I can live as good as I really would like myself to live it (yeah, crazy story). But I certainly going to try it, I guess. Well, still have 30 days to wonder about all of this ;-). Keep up the good work! Your blog is great!

I hope that I can have maintainence success like you! I think once I stabilize that it will be a lot better. I will be able to have more than 1200 cals and not gain 3 pounds the next day. How long did it take you to stabilize? Also, is this your last round you think- What's your goal?
