Beta HCG - Down Another 2 Pounds

A week ago today was my #1 gorge day. Friday was #2 gorge day per the Beta HCG diet. Gained 5 pounds on those two days, lost them in 48 hours. From back to my original weight, I'm down five pounds total. Down two from yesterday to today. I even weighed myself twice a couple of hours apart -- same thing. My jeans actually were a little loose today, though I'm sure another good washing in hot water will make them fit just fine again.

So far I've stuck to the plan. Nearly perfectly. The "nearly" part came last night when I couldn't bring myself to eat leftover asparagus (which I'd already had some of at lunch) or a tomato or half an onion,which were all the veggies I had. So I skipped the veggie and had a few strawberries a while after dinner instead, even after already having my 2-fruit allotment for the day. I won't make a habit of it.

I had to laugh at myself. I'm so NOT domestic! I bought one of those plastic juicers. (I get the juice of one lemon each day). I went to wash it but couldn't get the plastic part apart from the glass bottom part that holds the juice. I pulled and pulled, tried to pop it with my fingernail. Nothing. While it was in the sudsy water, I accidentally twisted the top and it came right off. Duh....

My energy level is still low but the headache is gone, the nausea is gone, my aches and stiffness were better today, and my head is clearer. Progress! Stay tuned....
