So, from yesterday to today, I lost 5 pounds. Yay!! I feel better about the diet now. =) What's irritating though, is my scale. On my scale this morning I weighed 341. I know better than to believe it, so I came down to my parents scale and on their's I weighed 363. 22 pounds different!! So irritating!! However, my Mom has weighed herself on my scale and then on her own scale and she weighs the same. It obviously doesn't know how to calculate super fat people properly. I wish I could get a new scale but... they can be so expensive. Especially if you need one that can withstand (and work) for super fat people. Sucksssss.
Last night at dinner I had a 2 oz. piece of chicken (60 grams, raw) which was actually fairly good sized. I would have thought it would have been more than 2 oz. I had put a little of Bragg's Liquid Aminos on it to season it and it was really good. Then I had about a cup of broccoli and a small amount of cauliflower. I also had a half of a whole wheat dinner roll. I had an orange and a pear later. We eat super late and then I stay up later, so it's not like I'm eating and going straight to bed. I've heard that that's not good to do. Supposedly if you do that, it all turns to fat. I don't know.
I was going to start my diet about a month ago but I didn't because my Mom and my sisters were going to Michigan to visit family. They were going to bring fudge and pasties home. So, I decided I'd wait to go on the diet til after they got back, so I could have some fudge and pasties. Well, I ate a bunch of fudge but I forgot that my Mom had frozen the pasties. Today she mentions to one of my sisters that we should have them next Monday night for dinner (every other Monday night, the whole family gets together for dinner. My Mom usually makes hamburgers on the grill). I kind of freaked out. I can't believe I forgot about the pasties!! Albeit a month has gone by (maybe longer!) and I have a tendency to be of the thought, "Out of sight, out of mind" sometimes... so that could explain it. But I was like, "What?!?! I told you I was going to be going on this diet!!" And she says, "Well, you could go off of it for a day!" She totally doesn't understand this diet at all! I had given her a little 2 page summary of what the diet was about and what I could and could NOT eat but did she read it?? No. She read a little bit of it, she said. Grrrr. So, now I'm not sure when we'll have the pasties because I'm on this diet and want to be on it for awhile. Another 'Ba-Hum-Bug' moment.
Last night my family had stuffing with their chicken, while I just had my plain chicken (with Bragg's Liquid Aminos). Thanks to last night, I was craving stuffing. So, today I made my own HCG-approved version. I'll post the recipe after this. It was actually pretty good, considering it's small amount of ingredients. And I did it in the microwave so it was fast and easy, which has always appealed to me. =) I was thinking, it would be really good if you rolled it up in the chicken and baked it. Yum! I'll have to try that next time. =) So, for lunch today I had a small piece of steak that was left over (about 2-3 oz, raw) from the other night and my "celery stuffing". It was good to eat the "stuffing" with a bite of steak. =)
Tonight my Mom made pork chops. I cut all the fat off, cut it in half and weighed it. It was about 70grams. I figured that was good enough. So, I had that for dinner with about a cup and a half of broccoli and some more of my 'Celery "Stuffing"'. I also had half of a whole wheat dinner roll. Afterwards, while we were watching TV, I had a tangerine. Later I'll probably have a pear. I can't believe how un-hungry I am. I mean, the craving to eat is still there because that's just what I've gotten used to, but I'm not actually HUNGRY. It's nice. =) I do have some self control!! ;-)
Oh, I also started my period tonight. Yay. I wonder if that's going to effect my weight tomorrow. I'll let you know. =)
