My weight this morning is 132.2. That is after having my first serving of starch yesterday. So I am within 2 pounds of LIW.....still good!!
Today is the long awaited Princess birthday party for my daughter!! She is excited!! But mom and dad are more excited for tomorrow morning....we leave for Disney Land!!!! I can't believe the time has already come!!!
So this will be my last blog before we leave. As I said before, if there is a computer at the hotels that we stay at, then I will hop on and give updates while I am gone!!!!
Have a great week everyone!!!!...I will post pictures when I get home!!!

Yesssss

It looks like my blogs still are not showing up, so I will keep blogging and when they decide to show up then you'll have a lot to catch up on ;)
Well after my first day on phase 4, my weight this morning is 131.4!! I added in my first serving of sugar yesterday! One of those big double chocolate chunck cookies from Whole Foods. It was soooo yummy!! Maybe today I'll try something with starch in it and see what happens.
Tomorrow is my daughter's big Princess birthday party!!! Then we leave for Disney Land!! I am all packed and ready to go!!! So excited!!!
Well that is all for now....I think I'll email Tammy and let her know that my blogs are not showing up after I post them. Have a great day!

Hmmmm

It is now Thursday morning and I still don't see my blogs from Weds or Tues on there yet.... not sure why that happens, but it seems to happen a lot.... I'll blog everyday and sometimes they won't show up til days later....same with comments that people leave. So anyways.....
My weight this morning is the same as yesterday...131.6. We leave for Disney Land in 3 DAYS!!!! I can hardly believe it!!! I am so excited!!! Oh, and today is day one on phase 4.... not sure what I will add first....maybe tacos for dinner.....with the actual taco shells??? MMmmmmm
I have a LOT of cleaning to do today!! Bathrooms are done...but everything else is left!! lol
Well I am gonna go grab some breakfast!!! Hope ya'll have a great day!

Last Day!

Well today is my last day on phase 3. My weight this morning is 131.6...so less than yesterday!! :)
Tomorrow starts phase 4 and I am going to take it slow and try not to stress about it. I am determined to maintain, so I think I will. I am prepared to make good choices while on vacation, and will have my scale with me to keep me on track. We leave this Sunday...I am so psyched!!! My daughter's birthday party is Saturday, and I have a lot to do to keep me busy til then.....mostly cleaning ;)
Well I am signing off for now....need to go drink some water and make some breakfast!

Concerned

Today's weight is 132, exactly one pound above LIW. I am a bit concerned that it is creeping up all of a sudden, when I've been eating the exact same foods that I have been since day one of phase 3. It's not quite time for TOM yet, so I don't know if I should be concerned or not. I guess we will see what tomorrow brings....I am still within 2 pounds of my LIW, so I won't do a steak day. Tomorrow is my last day on phase three....then Thursday starts phase 4, a whole new journey.
Well I suppose that is all for now. Again, if anyone out there has any tips for phase 4, please do share.... how did it go for you? What were you able to eat? Did your weight flucuate at all??

Too Much

Today's weight is 131.8. I'm thinking I ate a tad too much yesterday. But I am still within a pound of my LIW, so I am not worried. I will be more careful today.
Okay, so I was talking with a friend who finished round 2 just a little but before I did..... she did phase three successfully and maintained her LIW.....well she's been on phase 4 for about a week now, and everytime she eats any kind of starch her weight goes up. She said she's only eating a little bit of it, and her weight goes up every time. Now I'm scared to start phase 4.
If anyone reading has done phase 4 successfully PLEASE let me know how you did it...what kinds of foods did you eat.... did you add them in slowly.... what can I expect on phase 4??? What is the best way to go about it?

:)

Today's weight is 130.8!!! Yesssss!! I'm LOVING this!!! We ate at Apple Bees last night.... I had a grilled chicken salad and some of my hubby's steak.... it was delicious!!! and after that this morning I was .4 lower than yesterday!!! This is just absolutely amazing to me!!! I can't wait to start adding carbs and sugars back in and see how well I am able to maintain. This Thursday will be my first day on phase 4. I'm excited, and nervous, as I've said before....but I have a good feeling about it!!
Well that is all for now! Happy Sunday everyone!

Same!

Once again, my weight is 131.2!! We had Qdoba last night for dinner, and I thought I ate a ton, but no weight gain!!! I'm so psyched!!!
Well today is family pictures and I have a lot to do to get ready, so I'm cutting this short.
Hope ya'll are doing well!!

Same

Today's weight is the exact same as yesterday....131.2!! 6 more days on phase three!!!
I have a hair appointment today....just getting it trimmed up so it looks nice for the trip.
Tomorrow we have family pictures! My cousin is a professional photographer, so we go to her, and get good discounts. She did our weeding, as a gift...it was absolutely amazing!! Anyway, I'm excited!
I can't believe we leave for Disney Land next weekend!!! I'm so psyched!!!
Well, that is all for now....hope everyone else is doing well!

No Steak Day in Sight

My weight this morning is 131.2. I think it is safe to say that I will be making it through phase three without a single steak day. I can hardly believe it. Such a nice change from having to do one every other day and still being above LIW. I am very satisfied!
I sure will miss blogging when we are gone. I will have to find a computer and check in as much as I can! True success will be when I come home from vacation still within 2 pounds of my LIW!!!
Well that is all for now....only 7 more days on phase 3 (including today)!!

STILL the same!!

This morning my weight is 130.8 one again! I am thrilled! Thank you all for your comments!!! I am just so happy this is working!!!
Well, I suppose I shall get to my kiddos....Hope everyone is doing well!!

SO Happy

Today's weight is 130.8....again! This is so awesome!!! I feel great...so healthy. I have about one more week on phase three! I can't believe how fast this is flying by!
My daughter turns four while we are gone so we are having her party before we go.... the day before we go! The theme is Disney Princess....very fitting, since the next day we leave for Disney Land!! It will be a lot of fun! We are gonna have Famous Daves!!! YESSSSS!!!!!!!! I will finally be able to have some instead of just watching everyone else eat it in front of me while I have a measly 3.5 oz of chicken over some lettuce!
I have SO much to do to get ready for the trip.....I am definitly staying busy.....with school as well (homeschooling my daughter).

Okay, so I thought I'd share what an average daily menu looks like for me on phase three....
Breakfast: 2 eggs, sausage, cheese
AM Snack: 2 spoons of PB, or PB with an apple (PB is the stuff you churn yourself at Whole Foods....made from nothing but peanuts)
Lunch: Chicken breast with cheese on it
Snack: Artichoke with butter and salt
Snack: 2 sugar free choc chip cookies (they are Aunt Gussies...get them at Whole Foods)
Dinner: Taco salad, or spaghetti with miracle noodles, or a huge salad with cheese and seeds and meat, or pulled pork from Whole Foods (YUM)
I've also eaten at Chipoltle twice with my family.... I get the lettuce bowl with chicken and steak and cheese on top....soooo yummy!
So, I definitly haven't been feeling deprived at all....I think I am eating pretty well.....and, well, it has worked for me....I haven't had to do a single steak day, and I am staying just under my LIW. I never thought this would be possible for me....every other round I did phase three was a nightmare for me. Once again, I attribute this success to the Candida-G.... I have no carb or sugar cravings, and am completely satisfied with phase three friendly foods.
Okay, all this talking about food has made me hungry....I need to go eat breakfast!

Stiiiiilllllllll Holding!

This morning's weight is 130.8!! I can't help but be amazed everyday that it is actually working for me. I am so so happy! Seems like phase three is just flying by! Before I know it I will be on phase 4 and then leaving for vacation!!! Of course I am nervous about phase 4 and adding in sugars and carbs....the last thing I want is to mess things up then. My understanding is that I am to add them back in slowly and see what my body is able to handle without gaining. If anyone out there has any tips for a successful phase 4, please do comment!!!

WOWSERS.....

Okay, today's weight is 131.4 :)
And for the great news........ After a loooong shopping trip with my momma, I learned that I am a SIZE 6!!!!! Can you believe it? I was in shock!!!!! Every pair of jeans and every skirt is a size 6....and all my tops are a small!!! I am ecstatic, and definitly done doing hcg!!! This was my ultimate goal...to be in a size 6...and I am!! I'm so happy!! I have about a week and a half left of phase three.....then its phase 4...the begining of the rest of my life!! Which also means we are getting closer and closer to our vacation!!! wooooo hooooo!!!!! Can you tell I am happy?!?!?
Okay, well gotta go finish getting ready for church! Have a happy Sunday everyone!

Same

This morning my weight is exactly the same.... 130.8!!!
Today is my big shopping trip with my momma!! I am so psyched! It has been quite some time since I have actually spent money on clothes for myself! I'm also looking forward to just spending some time with my mom (with no little ones :) )
Everyone here is sick.....the weather is changing and there is a bug going around....seems like everyone I know is sick!!! Luckily it's not the puckies....just a head cold, so it could be worse! Anyway, it just always breaks my heart to see my little babies sick!!
Well, I suppose that is all for now...I need to go get ready for my day out!!

Still Holding!

Today's weight is 130.8!!! Yippie!! By golly, I think I have phase three down!!! I am so so happy this is working for me!! I haven't had to do a steak day, and the way it looks, I won't have to at all. I hope that when I start phase four (and leave for vacation), that I will continue to maintain, and not come home to find that I gained weight!
Well that is all for now...hope everyone else is doing well.

Doing Well

This morning's weight is 131.6....(.6 above my LIW) So I am still where I need to be, and VERY happy about that might I add! This is the very first time I've done phase three the right way and kept the weight off, so as you can imagine, I am so very psyched!! You know the best part?? I'm still not craving the sweets and carbs, so it hasn't even been hard!! This is maaahhhhhvelous!

Drum Roll Please......

My weight this morning is 130.8!!!!!! This is wonderful!!! When you follow the rules, it IS easy to maintain! I haven't felt deprived at all.... been eating a wonderful breakfast every day, eating snacks when hungry, and of course lunch and dinner. Oh, and I've been making a deliberate effort to make sure I am drinking enough water. I think I drink a little over half a gallon each day.
Well, I suppose that is all for now.....hope everyone else is doing well. :)

I can Hardly Believe it

Today's weight is 131.4.....exactly the same as yesterday!!! I am SOOOO happy!!! I've been on phase three for just about a week now and I haven't had to do a single steak day yet. I am so psyched!
This Saturday is my big shopping trip with my momma!! I am so excited to finally get some clothes that fit me.....and specifically some nice clothes for our trip. I think I wear an 8, but I have one pair of 8 jeans that are a little loose, so really I have no idea what size I wear...but sure will find out Saturday!! My mom will be starting injections this weekend and loading, so I get to watch her stuff her face while we are out :) lol
Well, that is all for now....hope you all are doing well!!

:)

My weight this morning is 131.4!!! This is truely working out the way it is supposed to this time!!! I am SOOO happy!!!
Oh, and this might be tmi for some, but I after this morning I realized I was "backed up" just a bit :) .....soooo, now that that is taken care of, my weight went down a little bit :) hehehe
Baby crying...I'll write more later
