It's been a while so I thought I would post an update on how's things are going. I struggled in P3 but stabalized around 5 lbs up from my lowest weight. That still leaves me down 25lbs which I'm pretty happy about. I recently went on vacation and my diet was pretty crappying during that time. The last half of the week I ate really bad. As no supprise I was up over 7 lbs from my stabalization weight. I was able to lose back to my stabalization weight in about a week by just using Intermittent
The last couple of days on P3 haven't been good for me. I've stayed away from posting mostly because of being depressed over my results. My weight has steadily been going up and yesterday morning I was up over 7 lbs over my lowest P2 weight. My attempts at a steak day and Fage day have also been a disaster. I just can't seem to controll my hunger without the help of HCG. I have been sticking to P3 foods the whole time and keeping the calories to the maintence allowance. So yesterday I really
The pound I lost yesterday morning is back this morning. P3 has been a roller coaster for me. But it does seem like it's at least keeping between a 2 pound spread. The only problem is when I get to the top of that range it put's me above the 2 lbs above LDW. I hate to compromise, but I think I might adjust my allowance to 3lbs above LDW before I take steps (steak day, Fage day, etc.). Now that I got my energy back; I'm going to see if my increased Cardio can work off a few pounds too.
Down 1.2 lbs. I'm just a pound over LDW now! So I think I finally figured it out with the help of some comments to my previous days blog. I was not getting enought calories. After I had come off the drops I left like I needed to very slowly increase my calories to the maintence level and I was only up to about 1200 calories a day. Without the HCG in my system I guess my body thought I was starving and was holding everthing it could. Yesterday I upped it to 2000 and ate mostly protein.
Down .4 lbs. My steak day was a FAIL. By lunch time yesterday I felt like I was starving so I had some protein. I started feeling weak and tired just like being back in P2 again except now I was hungry also. By dinner time not only did I have my steak, by more P3 sides too. Next time I might try the Fage day like Tate recommended. So at this point I'm 2.2 above my LDW, so I think I will just see what happens here in the next few days.
