R2/P2 VLCD19
I'm still doing HCG, but this round has been more challenging than the last one. I started round 2 in mid July but then went on a 2 week vacation. Staying with family around the country made it just about impossible to stick with protocol, so I called it quits during the vacation. I restarted P2 just before the start of August, but we had a week of family visiting us and they wanted to eat out most of the time. Ugh. I stuck with HCG as best I could during that first
R2/P2 VLCD 3-4
FOOD
Saturday: Lost about 3 pounds from yesterday. Waited so long into the day to eat that my blood sugar dropped and I felt grouchy and had brain fog. In my frustration I ate junk food to deal with the stress. I know I'll pay for it on the scale tomorrow.
Sunday: One pound gained. Made the same mistake today as I did yesterday... waited too long into the day to eat and had blood sugar problems. Lesson: eat earlier when I need it

R2/P2 VLCD2 - 3 pound loss
Wifey and I picked tomatoes and peppers from our garden today..... added in some onions and spices and made 3 gallons of salsa. Yum.
To load my body for tomorrow's run (7 miles), I ate a bit heavier than normal... 750-800 calories - mostly protein, but also had a Greek salad. Drank about 80 ounces of water and 20 ounces of diet green tea.
I need to start increasing my running distance to prep for my half-marathon in November.
I just got home from a two and half week vacation with my family. I tried to maintain P2 during the trip, but it just wasn't working. We went on a road trip to visit family in Pittsburg, Ohio, Indiana and even Miami, FL. Everyone wanted to feed us and after a few days I decided it was best to just enjoy the trip, accept what I was given to eat and start this round over when I got home. I have no complaints. I ate some great food and had a tons of fun.
