Thought the previous post was getting a bit long so I'm starting my final entry as a new post. Today I am into day 11 of Phase 2. This is the phase where you increase calories and add more protein, fat and veggies. There's no real limit except that you stay within 2 lbs of your weight on the last day of HCG injections (day 23). I was at 128.6 on day 23. So far I have maintained and that has been with a family reunion weekend! I'm so proud! I just decided that the birthday cakes, hamburger buns and lasagna were not worth the challenges i had faced the last 26 days so I passed them up. Instead, when I felt myself getting a craving for something sweet I turned to apples, cinnamon walnuts and coffee generously laced with heavy cream. That did the trick. Still, I look forward to the day when I can reintroduce good breads...I sure miss them...and certain sugars...I'd love to have a slice of home baked banana nut bread!
