R2 VLCD Day 18

Weight - 174.0

Down another 0.8 even with doing double protein for last night's dinner, having turkey, and taking a surgary cough syrup.

Breakfast
coffee with chocolate flavored liquid stevia

Lunch - (124 calories)
**Egg drop soup
3/4 c eggbeaters or 1 egg plus 3 egg whites
75 g green onion
1.5 cup chicken broth
1.5 cup water
.25 tsp white pepper
.25 tsp ground ginger
salt and or Braggs Aminos to taste


In a wok or medium saucepan, bring liquid to a boil. Add the green onions, white pepper, ginger and salt. Cook for about another minute.

Very slowly pour in the eggs in a steady stream. To make shreds, stir the egg rapidly in a clockwise direction for one minute. To make thin streams or ribbons, gently stir the eggs in a clockwise direction until they form.
 

This is a recipe I've used at home for many years.  I realized a few days ago that for the most part it's P2 friendly.

Dinner - (316 calories)
**Beef in mustard sauce & roasted cauliflower
200 g sirloin tip, sliced thin (previously cooked)
2 tsp yellow mustard
1 tsp water
pepper to taste

I did double the normal protein amount to try to help kick the pneumonia. 

235 g cauliflower, sliced
several sprays of Braggs Liquid Aminos
garlic salt to taste

On a sheet pan, place the cauliflower, spray with Braggs and sprinkle with garlic.  Roast in a 400 degree oven for 20 minutes or until slightly brown
