PHASE 3 – DAY 8
JUNE 22, 2010

Well, it IS possible to eat out and be fine! We went with daughter #3’s family to Pirate Island restaurant last night, and Lanny and I both had the salmon. Veggies and a grilled pineapple section were the sides. We passed up the dessert, and played in the arcade with the kids. I was down ½ pound today. Lanny was up [which was totally expected. His body went back to his maintenance weight]


Education is a good thing. I remember hearing that other women were doing the HCG diet, and I was appalled. I thought they were existing on only 500 calories a day, and that is not healthy. When I did my own research into the diet I found that the body is actually experiencing 3,500 to 4,000 calories a day, and still drops weight. It really does re-set your metabolism. I can eat pretty much anything I want right now [less the sugars and starch] and my weight is stable. That has not happened forEVER!


A co-worker commented on my weight loss today. That felt really good. Lane’s is so dramatic, he gets comments every day, but my loss has been more subtle, and it’s nice to have someone notice.
