Day 21 & 22

Well, one more day of P2!

I am 133.6 lb and PROUD.

Look at me!

I've been doing ALOT of cabbage meals, and cucumber meals...

<3 <3 <3 progress... nothing ABSOLUTELY NOTHING tastes as good as fit feels

P3 = Paleo and I cannot wait!

Days 18 - 20

Stalled at 134.6 lb :/

Ok, here are some theories:

• I changed to sublingual. The shots worked so well :(
• I spent these days in San Antonio and had one meal which was not on protocol :(

Now, mind you, I was well prepared for my San Antonio trip - I cooked up a storm the night before to carry these packed dishes, along with some amazing apples:

Anyhoo... I stuck to protocol... with the exception for one day - at lunchtime, I had some avocado salad with grilled chicken breast. Then, after dinner, I had some wine and then some vodka tonics :(

So! I head back to Houston after my little trip and the first thing I do is go to Central Market for some more apples and some seedless cucumbers. What did I cook for dinner? "Spaghetti and Meatballs" of course!

Man, cutting up that cucumber thinly was SO time consuming,... I so cannot wait for that spiral cutter thingie I ordered from Amazon :) To make ANYTHING like spaghetti :D yey! Go go Paleo!

I added some ground masala to those little minced chicken "meatballs" :) And cooked the "spaghetti" for like 5 mins with a little salt and pepper for taste. It was so good and within HCG protocol!

Today, I had a tough day (first, I was ultra weak in spin, then I spent way too much money on furniture) and by the time I got home, my creative juices wore thin and I just made a 3-egg-white scramble with shredded cabbage. Slice some strawberries on the side, et voila - late lunch:

Dinner? Same same... shredded cabbage with the left over minced chicken from Friday night - again, masala and a maggi-cube added for flavour (and to make me seem like a good cook :)):

I snacked on an apple before dinner... Dear Lord, please let me break out of this stall :(

Come on, 133!!

Day 17

So, like I said, I started working out as my usual self and regime again - some cardio, and at least one major body part weight lifting.

134.6 lb this morning :)

Slower weight loss, but I ran out of injectables early (I guess I overdosed? Mixed wrong? I dunno) and now taking sublingual - not a fan. Anyways!

I felt for a semi-rice dish, so what did I do? I bought cabbage, chopped it up so small it resembled rice, and "sautéd" in some water with garlic, onions, Trini curry powder and some chopped, cooked shrimp:

Stir fry, anyone? :)

Day 15 & 16

135.6 and 135.0 lbs respectively :)

I haven't weighed this much in YEARS - go hcg!

Here's what I had for dinner:

Trinidadian curry shrimp with arugula!

Now, I know I need to get a bit more creative - spinach, arugula... sheesh. I PROMISE tonight will be different :) PROMISE!

Shed weight - shed!

Day 13 & 14

136.4 lb and 135.8 lb respectively!

Whooooo hoooo!

I had senna tea to - ahem - empty the tank, and continued on with my diet as per usual AND working out again!

I'm still enjoying my food porn, the latest of which is an adaptation of a recipe I found from researching Paleo food - scotch eggs:

Aaannnnndddd... I had a date that landed me in a sushi restaurant - I had cucumber salad and sashimi (mmm mmm good) while I eyed his seaweed salad. So... obviously, the next day I go to Whole Foods (cuz that's the hip place - Central Market is "soooo yesterday" according to my gay eyelash technician) and grab me some readymade seaweed salad and some cajun spiced shrimp:

On another note, I cannot WAIT to start eating seeds and go PALEO! Come oooooon Phase 3!

Day 12

Gain... my first gain.

And I am sad about it. :(

Am I eating too little? Working out too little? What the what?!

Weight this morning: 137.4 lbs.

Anywho - what did this do for me?

This, together with my research on living a Paleo lifestyle, has brought me to the conclusion that I need to do ME... so I'm back hitting the gym hard from tonight and tomorrow, and being a bit more adventurous with the meals.

As we speak, I r cooking some scotch eggs - hcg and paleo style :)

Lookie lookie:

Day 11

137 :(

Sigh :(

I ran for 45 mins yesterday :(

Dear God please let tomorrow be different.

I didn't workout today... nor did I have lunch (other than 2 apples).

Tonight I had a date and had a greek salad with grilled chicken... from the amazing Niko Niko's (YUP!!! As featured on Diners, Drive-ins and Dives!)

But... no weight loss has me feeling blue.

Tomorrow, please be kind to me.
