Gotta love the first week of P3. Makes me a happy camper and makes it easier to keep going. I'm still following the Simeon's OP and so far so good. I know this is all water weight after the carb heavy vacation, but I'll take whatever I can get. Gonna keep on keepin on.

L: Salad with chicken
Sn: Cucumber salad
D: Chicken burger and broccoli.

We went on our epic Wagons West trip to Devils Tower, Yellowstone, Grand Tetons, and finished our trip going overlanding in the Medicine Bow National Forest. It was amazing. I gained a few pounds due to eating high-carb shelf-stable camping and backpacking foods. I have already lost a couple of those few I gained. I routinely got 15K to 20k steps each day so my gains could have been MUCH worse!

Came home from camping and all was well. Yesterday morning, I was the exact same weight as I was last Thursday before I left for my trip. Today I am up a pound - however, I did my WI 2 hours earlier than normal as I'll be getting up really early all week. Might be a factor, dunno. I did eat a lot of pork rinds yesterday - had serious "crunch" cravings, so the sodium probably kicked my ***. Ugh. ...

(Sigh) I am half way through this round of P2 and am only down 3.8 pounds. I didn't measure and I wish I had, as I"m pretty sure I have lost some inches as my clothes feel a bit different. Oh well, next time. Regardless, we leave today to go camping and I'm READY. I'm READY to get the heck outta Dodge. HCG-friendly foil packet meals are prepped and in the freezer, ready to go in the cooler right ...

I got a new scale, so my WI might be a little off. This new scale measures a WHOLE LOTTA things, not just weight and it bluetooth's to my phone and syncs with my Fitbit and CarbManager app. Kinda cool!

This is the last day of week 2, and I've only got 16 days left in this round before our vacation. It's time to really buckle down and break this stall I'm going through. Every single round ...

Week 2 stall has arrived. Up and down the same 0.4. I am thinking of getting a better scale, one that measures more than just pounds. I researched and was Surprised how cheap they are. You can get a decent Bluetooth Body analysis scale for like 30 bucks. The one I picked is compatible with my Fitbit app. I think I’ll pull the trigger on that today. My weekend was good food wise and exercise wise though it wasn’t ...

Massively busy day yesterday - Worked all morning, had to take both my Boxer girls to the vet, which I usually don't do alone as they are a handful when they are together. Just so much energy! They did great, though, and the fill-in vet was impressed with their manners. Got them chipped, so we are all ready for vacay. They are going to a boarder, and will do a "dry run" next weekend for a couple ...

I couldn't wait til tomorrow to get on the scale. My lowest WI so far was Saturday at 214. Then I think my highest on Monday morning was like 216.8 - now I'm back down to 215. Soooooooo slooooooooooooooooow.

It is what it is. I know my metabolism is "broken" and that this menopause thing is kicking my ***. My nutritionist said that during menopause, a small "cheat" of 10 ...

Not much to report today. I did not get on the scale and don't intend to do so until Saturday. I had a late night and a crazy early morning and another really early morning tomorrow too - and that usually translates to an inaccurate scale reading, which can mess with my motivation..... So, I'm just not gonna worry about it until Saturday.

I am still tweaking my macros based on information ...

Hi there! Down another pound since yesterday. Still not down to 214 my lowest point on Saturday, but steady movement in that direction makes me happy. I am still reading and re-reading the HCG 2.0 protocol, and tweaked my macros in CarbManager yesterday to reflect further information based on my BMR. My stats were all within those parameters yesterday and the scale moved. Could be a coincidence, but ...
