But then I woke up and found that I lost......3.8 pounds!
I was so excited! I'm also quite happy that I was able to sleep last night. I had to get up 5 times to use the bathroom and one time to re-dress my son but I was able to go back to sleep and even slept in until 7:15am.
Yesterday, my newly pregnant friend sent me a text and said she was up all night peeing too. And that it's almost like we're pregnant together. I told her 'Yeah we are...except I'm having a Food Baby'!
I thought you might like to see what I have to chose from in my menu. Luckily, I like most all of the choices and I think I should be able to mix them up a little. I just keep thinking...What Would Martha Do?
Yesterday, I was so hungry that I ate one of my melba toasts with my coffee. And I'm thinking I might have to eat my fruit as between meal snacks until I get used to not grazing through the day.
• For breakfast have only:
— black coffee, organic green, black and white tea...as much as you want.
• For lunch eat 100 grams (weighed raw) of grilled (no oil or fat):
— organic beef or veal, or
— organic chicken breast (skinless), or
— wild Chilean sea bass, or
— flounder, or
— sole, or talpia or halibut
— lobster, crap or shrimp
• One large handful of one of the following organic vegetables:
— Spinach
— Chard
— Beet greens
— Lettuces of any kind
— Tomatoes
— Celery
— Fennel
— White, yellow, or red onions
— Red radishes
— Cucumbers
— Asparagus, or
— Cabbage
These can be eaten raw, steamed, grilled (without oil), or gently boiled. Do mix vegetables in the same meal.
• One small organic apple, or small organic grapefruit or orange, or a handful of organic strawberries.
• You may season any of the food with the juice of half an organic lemon, white or black pepper, organic raw apple cider vinegar, sea salt, organic garlic, organic basil, organic parsley, organic thyme, organic marjoram, or any other organic herb. Absolutely no oil, butter, dressings, or anything else!
Two Melba Toasts or Grissino Bread Sticks.
• Dinner:
— The same choices as for lunch. Do not, however, have two meals exactly the same in the same day.
You may also find this interesting....I can't wear my regular make-up or use my regular soap and shampoo because they contain oils and chemicals that mess up the rate of weight loss.
So....I'm going to be looking pretty bad for a while because I really don't want to buy a bunch of crazy organic products. I have approved soap and toothpaste. I think I'll be staying home for a month!
Wow- I didn't realize it was that involved...no regular make up or soap?
ReplyDeleteYIKES!
Whats the plan for after you lose the weight? I assume there is some type of maintenance protocol.
And 3.8 lbs! CONGRATS!
That's a great weight loss Connie. After only two days? Wow I'm impressed.
ReplyDeleteBut have to admit that the diet that comes with it is not my cup of tea. I need change and I'm sure I get bored by eating almost the same thing day in day out.
But what I think doesn't matter, it's about that it works for you!
Yay!! Congrats!! That is so exciting! Most people lose that in an entire week!
ReplyDeleteOh my, I can get fat from makeup too? YIKES!! :)
ReplyDeleteLooks like healthy stuff just not very much of it.
Holy crap! My makeup and hair stuff is why I am fat???
ReplyDeleteLOL, I only wish I could blame my cosmetics ;-)
3.8lbs is AWESOME! That is crazy! I feel for you on the very low calorie part, I know that must me a killer, but with progress like that it must be motivating. Wow.
A "food baby"? BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
ReplyDeleteI am also on my VLCD2, though I'm on round 2. I completed my first round in November. :)
ReplyDeleteI found your blog doing an HCG search on blogspot, lol. I blogged last round (this round as well) and it really helped me, it also helped me finding other bloggers that were doing the same thing.
Anyways, I just wanted to say hi and good luck! :)
Wow great job girl!!
