My 13th HCG Day Down!

If you read my summary of events yesterday then you\’re probably very hatefully waiting to see my weight jump up by several pounds. And I\’d deserve it. I did break all HCG protocol and oral HCG reviews advice and indulge in disgustingly (yet tasty, it had to be said) fattening items like homemade potato salad, green salad doused in Caesar dressing and massive turkey legs (grilled, but still). It was a very bad day for my HCG diet.

But if you\’re a hater and you\’re hoping my weight will jump by several pounds you\’re going to be disappointed. Because when I got on the scale this morning I was still at 160. I stayed the same. Now I would rather have dropped a couple pounds, but staying the same in this particular instance is totally agreeable.

I might still be punished with a jump in my weight. The oral HCG reviews suggest that it can happen that way. But still…for today I\’m saved. Alright. I\’ll quit being dramatic. But it is lovely that I wasn\’t punished for my bad eating behavior yesterday.

This morning the first thing I did was take my B vitamin supplement. I usually weight first, but I decided I needed the benefits of its positive effects on stress and energy before I weighed myself. I took my HCG after I weighed myself. And then again at before lunch and dinner. I searched through some oral HCG reviews for any sort of trick I could try that would counteract my horrible diet yesterday, but the only thing they said was to get back on plan as quickly as possible and stay there.

Today I grilled up several chicken breasts with Creole seasoning (I know…I\’ve gotten obsessed, but it\’s really good). I had grilled chicken for lunch with a sliced tomato and some Melba Toasts. I had a lot of lemon water throughout the day (trying to drink the whole pitcher). I gagged down a cup of green tea and I had an apple in the afternoon.

Then I took some of the chicken I\’d cooked earlier in the day with some fresh asparagus and made the chicken asparagus soup. It\’s another \”soup\” favorite. I guess I\’m hooked on the soups because they\’re easy to save as leftovers and it\’s kind of cold outside so soup seems appropriate. With the soup I had Melba toasts again and I had an apple. I\’ve learned to eat an apple whole. I haven\’t done that in years. I got used to having them cut up because I always cut them up for my kids. It\’s kind of exciting to be able to just grab it out of the drawer and eat it right up; so easy and no mess cleanup. Plus I can throw it in my purse to snack on while I\’m out running errands or something.

Amelia Handley studied exercise science at university with a minor in Nutrition. Yet she still found herself veering from diet to diet in order to control her weight. With HCG Diet Direct she\’s found a program that allows her to combine her desire to control her own body weight with her education and not feel off balance.
