I gained a couple of pounds when I did my 2 load days so I had to account for those in my loss. But I decided not to focus on what I lose daily, but to concentrate on my total loss. That is what I will report here. Besides, I think that is all anyone really cares about in the end anyway.
Still contemplating the whole hunger thing. I am hungry at times. It tends to pass, but is is a different kind of hunger. It is physical, my stomach feels like it wants to growl. Here is the funny thing, when I notice this hunger - I still don't want to eat. No cravings, nothing. I just drink some more water and it passes. Evan now as I sit and eat breakfast, I have that same stomach tightening feeling. So I wonder if I have always mistaken hunger for something else. I also can't tell if the lack of food cravings are caused by the appetite supressants or the HCG. Need to think about that one some more.
Valuable things I learned this weekend:
- 1/2 a grapefruit is not enough food after a 10 hour fast
- The George Foreman Grill works great on Chicken and Steak, trying Seafood next
- Always drink water from something you know the volumne of. Carrying around a glass of water will cause you to lose track of you consumption. Know how much your water bottle holds and keep track of how many you drink. Much easier.

Favorite Water Bottles (3): Nathan with the straw (love the way the straw drinks, pretty, and spill resistent... still have drips if upside down, cleans well and all parts of the straw and top easily come off), the ones that Costco sells in packs of three (can't remember the brand) (they don't spill at all, and auto seal, meaning you let go or drop and you are safe & they have a clip to anything top) lastly the Nalgene On The Go bottles with the full inch in diameter drinking top... I love this for drinking water, however, this top does not stay closes well and if you drop it...or if your little one drops it, it is sure to spill and spill fast!
ReplyDeleteI love water bottles... Jeff thinks I'm crazy but my water bottle is a very important part of my diet.
