This morning my scale did not show any change in weight
since yesterday, oh well I hope somewhere, on my body, inches are changing though. It's my VLCD #13 today and I'm feeling a bit dizzy, not hungry but I've cravings here and there, I can't tell if
I'm just bored and I want something to chew on, or it's my food-deprivation that is talking. Nothing unbearable though, I
might just be victim of my own ovulation period. I'm not necessarily craving
sugar though, and this is a good thing.
Yesterday, for the first time on my HCG Diet, I had 100gr of Non-Fat Cottage Cheese for my protein serving, to dip with some
celery. It was good, I was worried my body would not process the cheese
properly, but it didn't so I'm thinking to change sometime and have some cheese, instead of the usual chicken. I
believe eliminating all those food categories for so long might hurt my tolerability
to it, same thing for carbs, I
usually have my grissino or my melba
toast during the day. I don't want to give up gluten forever, I might
reduce it of course, but I still want to be able to eat pasta or pizza once in
a while, never forget I'm Italian at the end.
I also think that bringing some sort of variation in the everyday diet is always good, so the body doesn't
become too comfortable with the same food and decide not to lose anymore. I do
have to admit though that I'm loving my baby
spinach chicken salad, and for now I'll keep it as a staple on my Diet,
till I get bored of it, then I'll change with something else.
Today I did my injection on my belly again, I felt I was
doing so well in the first few days and wanted to change back to see if my body
will keep on behaving for my weight loss.
Since it's Wednesday
I'll have my Detox Bath tonight
before bed, it's relaxing, I put baking soda in it too and I enjoy the warm
water for about 20 minutes or so, my
cat comes always around curios on what I'm doing, I can tell that he would like
to come inside the bath tub…if there was no water in it!
Right now I'm sitting at my desk in my office, and I'm freezing, I hope it's the Ketosis, this
morning I was a +2 Small Traces of Ketosis, yesterday I had 2 fruits and
my grissino. Too much carbs and also the Cheese has milk, which contains sugar so, it might be for that, but I also noticed that I cannot
have 2 fruits per day, I've to try with the strawberries but 2 of Apple / Orange doesn't work for my
body. So I might need to stick to 1
fruit per day. I'm pretty sure if I don't eat any fruit in a day, my Ketosis
will sky-rock to +12 in few hours!
At the end I'm eating only 500 Calories
per day.
One great thing of the HCG
Diet is that – contrary to the Dr. Bernstein Diet – does not put you
in starvation mode. The body "think"
that I'm pregnant (which I'm not), so it gets all the abnormal stored fat to release the missing amount of daily
calories and save the "baby"
from starving basically. Doing a Diet that puts you in starvation mode is not healthy at all, I've my personal experience,
weight gain is back in no time and developing an Eating Disorder is very common
in this situation.
