HCG Patch

R6 Phase 2 Day 20

Weight 136.4

Oh joy.. I stayed the same.  Sucky.  I'm eating somewhat normal P2 today and I did not inject.  I'm going to fly with the patches for a while and see how things go.  I did walk again today.  First time in 6 days.  Since my weight hasn't changed during that time I guess I can safely say the walking is not hampering losses.

R6 Phase 2 Day 19

Weight - 136.4

I am doing one more day of increase protein and then going back to regular.  I am also including 2 tbsp of chocolate delight tonight in hopes if kicking up my metabolism.

On top of all this I slapped on a MyHCGWay patch yesterday.  I injected yesterday and today, but I am thinking I'm going to roll with just the patches and see if it makes a difference.  My DIL is still doing injections and I can give her the rest of my mixed vial.  I used the patches for 18 days of last round after taking a planned interruption and did very well with them.

Getting pretty frustrated with this scale these days.   I'm pushing the protein today and stopping walking for a bit.

Weight - 135.2

Well back up 0.4 which could be due to all the walking yesterday or the lack of sleep.  Who knows.  Today was family Sunday.  Hung out at home and watched a few sports things on TV, ran to Target for a bit, and I made chili dogs for the family (both the vegetarian and the omnis).

Plugging along.  Tomorrow starts week 3.  I am hoping that means some losses.

Weight - 134.8

Well it's about time!  1.2 lbs this morning.  My net loss so far for week two is an entire 0.6 lbs.  ah well.. it is what it is.  Perhaps this coming week will be better.  I do still have one more day though.   Eating a regular menu today with extra protein and up to my calorie limit.   I also did two walks today.  The first one was just two miles, but we had my granddaughter in tow in a stroller and she was much more interested in getting to the playground.  I came home and did almost 4 miles around the neighborhood.
