Weight - 133.6
Well, that's something new. All prepared for a rebound after 2 lbs yesterday and I get another .8 loss. Amazing. Could it be that the rx was just not what my body needed and the MyHCGWay Patches? I know when I did a planned interruption last round and came back on with the patches, it really kick-started the losses. This time I switched over from injections to the patch with a couple of days overlap. Now that the rx is out of my system, suddenly I've lost 2.8 lbs in two days.

I had to check the scale several times this morning. 2 lbs? and in the right direction. I'm fully braced for rebound tomorrow.

Arggghh.. I'm hating the sale lately. It's an indian giver.
Today is family Sunday. Older son, daughter-in-law and granddaughter came over, but the little one was acting up so they went home as 'punishment'. Now why do I feel like the one punished?
I have about 10 more days to get this weight down and it's kicking me big time.

R5 Phase 2 Day 30
Weight - 137.4
Down another 0.6 today which comes as a total surprise after yesterday's drop. One day at a time. I have about 4.4 lbs left to go before I settle in for a few days and then move off to Phase 3, once again.
Quiet day at my house..well inside my house at least. Outside I listened to the landscapers doing their spring preparations. Pressure-washing the driveway, cleaning out the pond and installing a new pump since the old one died in December, removing any dead plants, pruning trees, etc. They started of course with cutting up and hauling away my lovely curly weeping willow that fell over in the snow and ice storm. Not sure if I'll put a willow back in the empty spot or not. They also cracked a narrow and long piece of glass above my entry door. They're sending the glass company out tomorrow to see what they can replace it with.
I do have to share a new tea I've been loving. It's Good Earth Originals Sweet and Spicy Tea
It actually tastes a lot like red hot candies. It's been great to have late in the evening when I'm wanting something on the sweet side. Typically I drink earl grey tea at night before bed, but now I'm switching between the two.

Down 1.8 this morning. Nice, but I'll likely have a rebound. I'm still a pound above my lowest this round. I know it's lack of sleep and output doing it.

Weight - 141.4
Yes it's been a few days since I posted. and yes my weight is pretty much what it was the last time I did. I may at some point go back and play catch up with my menus.
We had a major snow event middle of last week and then on Thursday morning the power went out from limbs breaking due to the weight of snow and ice. I have a home standby generator, so we had power, but cable was out which meant I was cripple with dial-up to get work done. So not fun. The whole family was here for a couple of days which meant all sorts of food temptations, but I did fine. I lost several trees in the yard including my favorite, a 12 year old curly weeping willow next to my pond. It's completely in my pond now.
I spent some of Friday and Saturday shoveling snow, chopping and sawing some limbs that were on the driveway. Sometimes I forget that I'm fifty years old. I'm sore because of it. When I get out there working, it feels good. When I come in and sit for a spell, the muscles remind me.
When I sat down to write tonight I realized my calories today were on the low side. I should have had more protein or a fruit.

P2 HCG Chocolate Souffle
1 egg, separated
3 egg whites
pinch of salt
2 drops lemon juice
1 tbsp Nuvita Naturals Cacao Powder
1 tbsp Xylitol or no calorie sweetner of choice
Separate eggs whites from yolks. Keep one yoke for use. Bring to room temperature.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Whip eggs into sturdy peaks. The best way to do this is with a stand mixer like a Kitchen Aid. If you don't have one, it can still be done. Place egg whites in mixer with a pinch of salt. Mix on medium low for 1 minute. Add 2 drops lemon juice. Mix on high for 3 minutes.
While the egg whites are mixing, combine egg yolk, cacao powder and sweetener in a large bowl. Fold the whipped egg whites into the bowl of heavier ingredients putting in about 1/3rd of the whites at a time.
Place mixture into ungreased muffin tin. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes.

R5 Phase 2 Day 13
Weight - 142.8
Down another 0.4. Nice after eating the steak at Applebees yesterday.
We got our first snow of the Winter today. I spent a bit of time clearing off the driveway. Tonight I cooked the Sunday family dinner and used a new recipe for a baked mac and cheese. They had sure better eat those leftovers.
I had my Sunday omelet today. Spent some time watching football and going through the things that had been in my spare closet.
On the dosing front, I decided to throw caution to the wind and skip several doses today. If the higher than usual dose is what I'm going to have to do, I'm not happy with the amount of hunger I'm having with it. I thought before I make any decisions, I should drop the level and the dose down to lower than the recommended amount and see if it makes things better or worse.

Down 2 lbs today after my nut adventure. Today was to be a clean P3 day. Because of errands this afternoon, I didn't feel like cooking dinner so I just ate Fage Total for the meal. Tomorrow will be chocolate mousse day.
Today saw new carpet in my formal dining room and family room. Also the painters were taping trim in the kitchen, dining, and pantry area so they can spray the trim tomorrow.
We cleaned out part of my second closet and hauled several bags of clothes to a place that buys them. LoL they didn't want but a couple of things. So I've itemized what I have and will drop them off at Goodwill tomorrow. I'm also going to run some errands so I'm not here smelling the trim paint as they spray.

Weight - 137.0
Wow.. just wow. Down 4.6 pounds overnight. I guess the prep drink did make me retain a lot of fluid. Wonder if there's anymore in there. It would be nice. I spent part of my Saturday at a local outlet mall. Primarily there for my DIL and Gbaby, but I did manage to pick up a couple of things for me. Some boots, a nice leather jacket, and a couple of tops. I'd had brunch at home around noon. When 6:30 rolled around we were still out and I was starving. We ended up going to Outback. I don't think I did too bad for a restaurant meal. We shall see. Typically when I have a big drop like today, I see some rebound the next day.
