This is a late post. I've been trying to figure out what I did wrong. It is a dark day in the last of hCG protocol... I gained weight. I'm thinking it's a combo of things. First, I made a gumbo last night and put way too much celery salt, garlic salt, AND creole seasoning in. I'm puffy this morning, so I know I'm retaining water. Then I went through my menu from yesterday to see if I could see what I did and--BAM! I had my math wrong on my spreadsheet. I had 512 calories. So now that I know what I did wrong, I feel better about the gain. I'm not happy about it, but at least I understand why.
But I refuse to let that stop me from reaching my goal. I WILL GET SKINNY!
Today's Menu:
Breakfast (0 calories)
Tea & Coffee
Snack (75 calories)
Apple - 5oz at 15 cals per oz
Lunch (210.5 calories)
Shrimp - 5.3oz at 30 cals per oz
Tomatoes - 10oz at 5 cals per oz
Dinner (197 calories)
Chicken - 4.5oz at 31 cals per oz
Cabbage - 5.5oz at 7cals per oz
Snack (36 calories)
Strawberries - 4oz at 9cals per oz
Weight Loss: -1.0 (I gained) :-(
Total Weight Loss: 5.0 pounds (still not too bad for only 3 days)
I created this fab recipe for my chicken/cabbage. I grill the cabbage in a combo of water and broth while at the same time grilling my chicken in the same (separate pans). I combine both, including juices, add curry and ginger, and viola! It was so yummy yesterday that I'm having it for dinner tonight.
Keep your fingers crossed that I lose for tomorrow.
