Woke up .2 lbs lighter than yesterday morning...even though we did the fat loading on Saturday and Sunday. I gave my own shot today (first time!).
I had iced tea (Celestial Seasonings Cold Brew Peach) in the AM while I did a few conference calls. As 1PM approached I ate my lunch -- grilled chicken over a bed of spinach and 1/2 of my allotted strawberries with a Apple Cider-based vinaigrette. I drank 48oz of water with lunch. For a snack in the late afternoon, I had the remaining 1/2 serving of strawberries and more iced tea. For dinner, I had chicken breast, 2 melba toasts, cucumbers, and apple slices, and 24oz of water with lemon juice for flavoring -- all food items were measured with our new digital scale to ensure accuracy to the hundredth decimal! I tried plain Perrier with 2 drops of Valencia Orange Stevia and it was way too sweet for me! So I will try to figure out the best blend for my taste buds. At the end of the evening I had another glass of iced tea (Celestial Seasonings Cold Brew Raspberry).
We found Melba Toast finally! We looked at SuperTarget and Sprouts yesterday and neither had any in stock or carried it. Tonight, I went to Safeway and found an assortment of Melba toasts (.50 cents off each box too)!
We cooked dinner and our lunch for tomorrow this evening. Tonight's chicken was 'Montreal Chicken'...tomorrow's flavoring for lunch is 'Lemon & Pepper (salt-free)' chicken! Dinner tomorrow evening will be bunless turkey burgers :)
I did not notice any hunger pains, however, I did notice my brain was craving something to eat around 4PM because I normally eat a snack at that time every day. It was a good thing I saved 1/2 serving of the strawberries -- it was a great afternoon snack :)
In terms of health care products, we have switched to shampoo, conditioner, face wash, and soap that are all approved within the guidelines of the HCG protocol. I stopped using the deodorant, moisturizers, makeup products and fragrances I normally use that have oils and other black listed ingredients. I am testing two brands of deodorant that I purchased at Sprouts and a moisturizing, oil-free toner spray. My skin is beginning to feel dryer but have not used the baby oil yet.
