R3P2 Reshaping

I have started R3P2! I am looking forward to reshaping this round. Join me at HTA to follow me day to day :-)

P2 Salad Dressing

I love this P2 legal dressing!
2T White Balsamic Vinegar (be careful with Balsamic as most have carbs. Whole Foods does have one without carbs and only 5 cal. per T)
Garlic to taste
Sweetner to taste.

When in P3/P4 you can add Light Olive Oil to the mix :-)

Follow me in my journal

It is to hard for me to post my journey all over the web. So please, for day to day undates of my weight and day take a look at my Happily Thinner After Journal :0). I joined the Boot Camp there when I started P3 and have learned alot from all the people there. Info. galore!!

I will still post here recipes and such. But my daily reports will be at my HTA journal.

weigh in

Today I am the same as yestaurday 123.2. Still within the LDW range. Although it is the first time that I didn't loss anything with the menu I'd been eating all week. I was hoping for getting a little closer to my LDW but hay I didn't gain so that is good! I'm changing up my menu today...We shall see if my body likes it tomorrow :0)

weigh in

WHaaaa Whooo I am back within the -/+2 LDW range. Okay I'm at the +2 but love being back within range!! Today I will still do the menu I've followed all week hoping to get even closer to LDW tomorrow. I'm so glad I joined HTA and Bootcamp!! I would of caved by now it I hadn't!

Weigh In

I've been very busy so can't always keep up with posting here. I will try to post more often :0).
Yesterday I spent 4 hrs. at the dentist and am now on antibiotics. I am hoping the don't cause me gains.
I have been doing Happily Thinner After Bootcamp. Sorry, I can't share my menu's here as that is part of the BC agreement. I am glad I joined though! BIZ has helped me find a menu that is getting me back into my LDW range. I am currently +3.6 pounds above my LDW, I was +6, yuck!
Today is day 20 of P3 for me so technically tomorrow is my last day of P3. I am going to continue with P3 longer as I really want my body to stabilize and I think adding other P4 things now would be a big mistake. I went 12 days with nothing but gains, trying alot of different ways of eating. I don't believe my body is very stable yet so I will wait to go into P4.

Weigh Ins I've missed :0)

So Steak Day only gave me a very small loss then I was right back up to 125. Did an Egg Day on Thurs. and got not loss Friday morning still at 125. So I've decided to let my body just settle into 125 right now. Fighting it hasn't worked...

Tuesday Weigh In

I was very very snacky yestaurday and ate way to many nuts and probably to much whip cream! I'm at 125.4...Steak Day for me today!! It's all my own doing and so I can't be upset as it was self inflected!!

Rebounder Work Out

I just did 10 minutes of jogging & kicks on a rebounder. It was alot of FUN :0). I know I only did 10 minutes but I'm way outta shape, being in P3 I want to start slow so I don't get a gain from water weight. I have defiantly found a fun way to workout!

Saturday, Sunday & Monday Weigh In

Steak day netted me a 1 pound loss :0). I then went back up on Sunday to the +2 pounds from LDW but no correction day for me cause I'm at my limit. Today Monday I am the same as yestaurday..+2 from LDW so Super Bowl snacking, on food I prepared which was all "legal" did me good! Wish I could get down a bit and not right on the edge but no CD's are a good thing in my book. I'm on day 12 of P3 so over 1/2 way to P4...Yippee!!

Friday Feb. 5th Weigh In

So I'm up 2.4 from LDW so it is a Steak Day for me :0(. I so hope it gives me a better loss then the Nut Day did!!

Thursday Feb. 4th Weigh In

So Nut Day only gave me a .2 loss....Quite upset with that cause I'm now again at the +2 pounds from LDW! I was hoping for more wiggle room!! Bernice is still a big issue. Hoping the Nut Day at least gives me a "clean out" today sometime!!

Wednesday Feb. 3rd Weigh In

Today I have to do a correction day. I'm on P3 Day 7 and 2.2 pounds over my LDW. I have choosen to do a Nut Day since I don't have any steaks defrosted. I'm also hoping the Nut Day "cleans me out" since Bernice has been AWOL...

Correction Day Alternatives

Posted from the LCF site.

Nut Day Average loss 1-2 lbs.

This has proven effective for some. A nut day seems to be good for those on the go because it allows snacking throughout the day.
The most important point to keep in mind is that the nuts have to be eaten RAW and to choose nuts with the highest fat content. The recommended order is as follows:

Macadamias 200 calories
Pecans 189
Walnuts 182
Brazil Nuts 186
Hazelnuts 179
Pine Nuts 179
Pistachios 164
Almonds 167
Peanuts 161
Cashews 163

This caloric measure is for 1 oz of raw nuts.
Concentrate on staying under 2500 calories for the day, using any mixture of nuts that you like. Try to eat your allotment for the day in small servings, like once an hour. This will keep you surprisingly satiated and will create quite the laxative effect the next day!!!


Chicken Day
Following the correction day instructions it says to oven roast a whole chicken then start with the brown meat, including skin...eat away all day on that chicken...but eat when hungry only. I am keeping that handy if I need to do a correction day. That not eating all day and than eat steak/apple at dinner was really hard for me. Like the idea that I can munch all day.

Monday, Feb. 1st 2010 Weigh In

I am the same today as yestaurday 122.4 which is 1.2 up from LDW. I'm within my -/+2 pound range so no worries. TOM is still here and I didn't get all my food ate yestaurday so I was a bit worried...no need to be though :-)!!
I actually went shopping yestaurday and bought myself some size 2 jeans!! I am so excited...I did a happy dance in the dressing room. I noticed about 5 days ago that my size 4 where getting a bit loose in the waist. So while I was out yest. I decided to just go try and see how 2's would fit and to my surprise they fit GREAT :0)! So I may not be lossing pounds I'm defiantly lossing inches in P3!

Monday, Feb. 1st 2010 Yestaurday's P3 Menu

Coffee w/HWC, Water & Iced Tea
2 pieces Bacon & 2 Scrambled Eggs

I know calories where low. I was going to have shrimp scampi for dinner but got home to late to eat.

TOM is here...don't like this 10ish days early thing! I was on day 2 of P3 when TOM came to visit but had gone through the 72 hrs so technically off HCG for 5 days so I think I'm okay per P&I...and this shouldn't mess with my stabilizing

Sunday Jan. 31st 2010 Weigh In

Good Sunday morning! I am up .8 pounds today. Still well within my 2 pound limit so I am telling myself it's okay :0)! I think it's because TOM has decided to come early...like 10-12 days early and Bernice is being scarce. I'll take some Natural Calm today and drink lots of water. My back is also still outta wack so I've done nothin but lay or sit the last 3 days.
I was going to change up my planned menu for today and not add anything new. I've decided not to do that though...I'll eat as planned and see what the scale says tomorrow.

Happy Healthy and Maintaining!!

Menu Posting Change

I am going to start posting the menu I ate the day before. This way I get a "true" account for what I actually ate and not what I'm thinking I'll eat. Hope that makes since...I plan on eating something and sometimes I have to make adjustments/changes depending on how full I am or what I am doing for the day.

This menu should be dajavu since I posted it yesterday :0)...
Reg. & Decaf coffee w/HWC
60 ounces of Water
Hot & Iced Tea sweetened with Stevia

2 eggs scrambled w/butter & TS Spinach & Herb seasoning
Apple

Shrimp w/Garlic Butter
Strawberries w/HM Whipping Cream that is sweetened with Huckleberry SF DaVinci Syrup

Gr. Beef Taco Tomato Soup w/1T HNH

Saturday Jan 30 2010 Weigh In

Good morning! Day 3 of R2P3 my LDW is 121.2 I am up .4 today to 121.6. Not worried, I haven't been active since I hurt my back. Chiropractor want me either sitting or laying to heal. I believe I may be retaining water so my body can heal my back.
