155.0 lbs.

Okay-I really have no explanation for this. I always have had a big drop after I teach a spin class and drink all the water I have been drinking.

Need to say that this is my last day on HCG. Actually, yesterday was my last day taking it and today was weaning off, trying to stay pretty strict to the VLCD. The reason I have to come off is that I have to have some surgery and I can't be on any type of diet. I will need to prep with a 2 day, all liquid diet and then I will be recovering for 12 weeks! Yikes! I am very much wanting to adhere strictly to the 3rd phase (no sugars, no starches) as I will NOT be able to exercise-very weird for me...

Anyway, it's a good thing and I will have lots of time to come up with my phase 3 cookbook! I experimented today, with my wonderful, adorable, I'm so in love with hubby, on dark chocolate cherry cordials and almond butter nut cups (recipes found at elanaspantry.com). This chick is amazing with almond flour as a sub for any carbs and agave nectar in place of sugar! I used some of my non bitter stevia for these and a bit of agave nectar and they turned out awesome.

I will say I know I am suppose to be on the VLCD for 3 days after taking the HCG but I have been on it for so long I went ahead and ate some protein today not included on the VLCD. I am hoping and praying for no weight gain in the morning. I jumped on my trampoline today and did 3 sets of push ups and sit ups. Over a gallon of water today...We'll see...

I will blog one more time tomorrow to see my results from today and then I'll blog periodically throughout my recovery, attempting to keep up with recipe ideas, new inventions, etc. I do believe this is the thinnest I can remember seeing myself...Wahoo and Praise God!!!

155.8 lbs.

Not happy at all with this. Taught spin tonight, did upper body weights and drank lots of water, sticking strictly to diet. Expect a HUGE loss tomorrow!

155.0 lbs.

Hmmm, let's hope this was a repeat of the weights thing at the gym. Want to see a big drop in the morning...didn't drink enough water today, I know...
