My HCG Low Calorie Diet
Today was my first day on the very low calorie diet portion of the homeopathic HCG diet. I'm not going to lie to you; it was really tough. I don't think I took in enough water. But that's something that I'm just going to have to keep working on.
First thing I did the day after Thanksgiving was weigh myself. I was up a pound (171). I figure that's normal since I've been loading for the last two days. I took my homeopathic HCG formula and my B-Total. Then I offered all the Thanksgiving leftovers to the kids for breakfast. After they took their fill I tossed the rest. That was a temptation that I wouldn't be able to stare at for the next several days without breaking.
Then I had some water. I tried some green tea sweetened with Vanilla Creme Stevia. It was alright, but I'm not attached. And it would definitely be nice if I was attached since it's basically the only freebie on the HCG diet besides water. But I figured I couldn't go wrong by drinking water since according to a lot of the homeopathic HCG reviews that's one of the easiest mistakes to make; not drinking enough water.
But the water didn't keep me from being really, really hungry by the time I decided I should think about putting something together for lunch. Next time I really need to start making lunch before I'm totally starving. I ate it standing up in the kitchen while my kids waited for me to make them lunch. They got grilled cheese. It smelled awesome; butter and cheese on bread never seemed so mouthwatering until I couldn't have any.
But I did finally get my lunch ready. I had a romaine lettuce salad with tomato. With the salad I had chicken cooked in a pan on the stovetop sprayed with non stick cooking spray. I seasoned the chicken with the Creole seasoning that was listed as approved on the diet. I read about it in a few homeopathic HCG reviews so I figured it would be pretty good. It was more than good; it was amazing! It could be my new favorite seasoning. I'd never tried a Creole seasoning before so I was surprised. I had strawberries with both lunch and dinner for my "fruit" portion of the diet. I was a little sad that the kids were dipping their's in chocolate and I didn't get to, but I did try mine with a little Stevia on top. It was pretty good.
For dinner Lisa came over and we made Shake and Bake Tilapia from the HCG Diet Direct Cookbook. It was REALLY great! Even the non-dieters agreed the fish was amazing so it wasn't just because we were hungry. I was able to successfully fit in my 3 doses of homeopathic HCG weight loss formula as well as my once per day B-Total Sublingual vitamin supplement. So I feel like I did pretty well. We'll see if I can keep it up tomorrow.
