After reading the forum I've ordered MCT oil and I've started taking L-Carintine, ...

Things have slowed down so I wanted to try out a sorta steak day. It's rouge(ish), I know. The weight only showed a .2 loss this morning but I'm not expecting anything until tomorrow.

What I ate yesterday:

Breakfast: Green tea
Lunch: Steak w mustard
Dinner: Steak w mustard
Snack: Fruit

Today: -.2
Total: -8.3 lbs

Happy Easter weekend all!

Yesterday I was dog tired. After walking I pretty much sofa'd it for the day. I had a brief nap and then went to sleep for good around 9.30. But here I am. Awake. At 4.30.

What I ate yesterday:

Breakfast: Green tea
Lunch: Crab claws w salad
Dinner: Steak w mustard, green beans
Snack: Strawberries

Today: -.6 lbs
Total: -8.1 lbs

This sounds so right that I just had to post it here as a reminder.

Apparently when you lose a lot of stored fat, your body replaces those fat cells with water. Once your body catches up to the fat loss, it begins to tear down the excess connective tissue and blood vessels that were supporting that fat. As these break down, the water replacing

Yesterday was a day of temptation. My grocery store had artichokes and I ALMOST convinced my cheating mind to buy them. Heck. In my mind I practically had them cooked and scooping up mayo! I got over it by going for prawns, crab claws, and strawberries instead.

I didn't take my drops last night and I'm not hungry this morning so a drop in drops looks to be needed.

Breakfast: Coffee with milk
Lunch: Chicken w mustard, tomato ...

I'm the same weight I was yesterday but unlike my first P2 I've been expecting this. Also, I'm a wee bit stopped up but I was too tired yesterday to deal with it. I could barely keep my eyes open after 4pm.

The ostrich was a welcome change from chicken/steak. Today I'll shop for meat and do my weekly steak day tomorrow. The cucumber/asparagus/frozen spinach rotation is doable, so no more thoughts of spinach smoothies!

I really like this idea. It'll break of the monotony of P2 and might even fast forward the losses.

Yesterday I went out walking and enjoyed myself. For the first time I took L-Carnitine and I believe it gave me added energy for the day. I walked through two parks and kept on walking. Then I had my taxi drop me off on the main street so that I could walk into my neighborhood.

I forgot to eat my second fruit yesterday until late. I read somewhere that you are not meant to eat late so I passed. I'm not sure if that's a good thing to do or not.

My scales are wonky things. I get on them in the morning, before I'm fully awake, and they are all over the place. Maybe I should have read instructions on how to stand? Anyway, I wasn't confident in their return today so I added .2 to my weight.

Nothing exciting happened yesterday except that I grabbed the wrong face cream. About ten minutes later I freaked because I'd used OIL lotion and not my oil-free lotion. How do you scrub off lotion successfully? But later I came across a ...

The losses continue to be steady but I still haven't sorted out being stopped up. I'll get to that today.

Yesterday I couldn't face the fresh spinach so I threw it into a blender with my orange and a tiny sliver of ginger. It was better than gnawing through tough leaves but still not an attractive alternative (BRIGHT green!) So for the duration I'm going to shelve fresh spinach and eat frozen. I don't like a lot of the choices for veg so that leaves me cucumber, frozen spinach, and ...
