Could some of you P3 vetrans post a sample day food plan (P3) that works for you? It was my first day today and I feel like I had too much fat. Enough protein but too much olive oil for sautee-ing veggies and drizzled on meat/fish. I just feel oily and not very well after feeling so great for 3 weeks. The hcg and clean eating makes me feel so good and energetic. I am feeling lethargic and sludgy today. Do you plan out your meals for a couple of days or just go off of safe foods that you feel like those days?
amy..first couple days I also felt kinda ill...yucky. couldn't wait to eat and then felt bad..maybe try and eat more of what you ate on P2 except lots of it...except the fruits. I avoid fruits first week. add like 1 or 2 new things a day in. I added eggs, cheese, butter, and olive oil in at the beginning and then a few more each day as my taste buds dictated. I'm a planner so I always had some kind of meat or chicken in the crockpot...plenty of all kinds of fresh veggies, and then after first week, lots, and lots of fruit....love it. see what sounds good or you are craving and try to work that in.Don't go hungry and eat whatever you like ...except NO sugar or starches. When I had a crunchy chip attack, I ate pork rinds, sweet tooth,my strawberries with cream cheese, i even made the pork rind pancake a couple times with sugar free syrup...experiment with the okay foods. take your time at the grocery store and try new veggies or fruit...read the labels to see whats okay. Before the protocol I never drank coffee...now I love the flavored coffees over ice with reddi whip on top. The strawberry smoothie is still an excellent treat in P3. good luck also in the P3 lounge thread on page 40 or 41 I listed a lot of the foods I eat.
Thanks for the great information provided. I start P3 tomorrow and am a little nervous about over eating and gaining. I feel more confident about it after the information.
Thank you so much for bringing this important information as a reminder to us newcomers. I will be completeing P2 and starting P3 fairly soon. This helps to solidify my stradegy. I really appreciate all the support this forum gives....
I will be starting P3 in a couple weeks but I am concerned about weight loss during P3. I have done "low carb" before and lost weight. It is my understanding you should stay within the 2 lb range up or down from lwi. What happens if you continue to lose in P3?
