So far I haven't been up that long so this post is more about late Day 3 and early Day 4. I woke up and weighed myself like i'm supposed to every day and i already lost 2.2lbs. i went from 229.2lbs to 226.6lbs in one day! thats nuts! i certainly was not expecting that. if thats what i lose in a day i wonder what i'll be at in a week!
Last night the hunger did kind of get to me. I didn't overeat but i did end up eating my melba toast which i wasn't planning on eating, but after thinking about the lack of carbs in my diet, i figured it was better for my system.
I did find 2 issues though that i need to figure out how to fix. 1. i forgot to weigh the chicken BEFORE i cooked it so i had to eyeball the 4oz (which is the size of about a deck of cards). 2. i wasnt sure if i had to measure the veggies before they were cooked or after! i ended up measuring them after and i feel that even though it looked like a lot, it was a moderate helping. 2 cups can be a lot of veggies! and i kind of doubt that eating one or two more pieces of broccoli is gonna throw off my diet! lol
So i may not find myself being as strict as the plan is, being that i used more lemon than i should and possibly ate a couple pieces more of chicken, but the amount i'm eating is still way less than i had before and i know its hitting 500 cal. hence why i'm not worried.
Anywho, now i'm on day 4 aka day 2 of the VLCD stage of HCG and so far so good. i've taken my drops, taken my vitamins (b-12, vitamin c, calcium) and now i'm ready for my daily coffee and some delicious lemon chicken and broccoli!
i'll keep you posted!

I found out that the veggies are 2 cups raw. Since I don't eat the bread I'm going to do cooked because I'm not even eating the full 500 calories! lol.
