Day 3

180.0 lbs starting weight, as of Monday, 10/17/11

The first two days of the HCG diet are "loading days", so for my breakfasts I ate an Egg Mc.Muffin and hashbrown on the first day and two chorizo, egg and cheese tacos on the second day. For lunches I ate two double cheeseburgers from McDonald's on the first day, one McRib on the second day with a few fries, and one jalitos ranch burger from Dairy Queen for supper the second night. The first night my supper was two chicken enchiladas verdes, rice and beans. They say it is customary to gain weight during those two days (duh), but it is promised that any weight ganied will be lost by day four. Tomorrow is day four, and I am not weighing myself until then.

Today is day one of my restrictive diet and day three of the diet as a whole.

It's only lunch, but so far today I have consumed very few calories, yet I feel energized and upbeat. Here is my meal log so far:

0815 Breakfast: 12 drops of HCG under my tongue, 1/2 fresh grapefruit, 1 glass of Oolong Tea

1250 Lunch: 12 drops of HCG under my tongue, 3 egg whites + 1 whole egg, 1 raw, small vine ripe tomato

So far I have consumed 33.8 ounces of Ozarka Spring Water.

I still need to eat my cracker snack, eat supper and drink 56.2 more ounces of spring water.

I have now consumed 50.7 ounces of water, and I have eaten my afternoon snack, one cracker. Surprisingly, I did not greatly desire to eat another cracker. Don't get me wrong, I wanted to, but not because I was actually hungry.

Tonight is going to be interesting because it's family BBQ night at Rudy's. I keep trying to think about what I can eat. The diet allows for red meat a couple of times a week, but it doesn't recommend it. I guess that's probably what I'll eat unless I get a half chicken and just eat the breast.

I still need to drink 39.3 more ounces of water to hit my recommended amount, so that's two more bottles of water, plus a little, which I will get at supper.
