VLCD #14: -.8
Well, today showed a pretty good loss, considering that I was flying by the seat of my pants, food-wise. Last night, I had to go out to eat with friends, and was originally going to eat beforehand; however, I got in a hurry and overcooked the chicken breast that I had prepared, and ruined it. I ended up ordering some plain shrimp cocktail and seasoned it with salt, pepper and lemon juice. Also ordered a plain garden salad with just oil and vinegar, and didn't use the oil. Then picked the lettuce out of all of the other cheese, croutons, etc. and managed to have a rather decent meal - I felt good about the choices I made!
Today, though, was another story. My insomnia is turning into a real problem - I woke up at midnight and didn't get back to sleep until almost 5:00 this morning. Called work and told them I'd be in late, but then in my rush to get ready I forgot my injection! But that's not the worst part - I was so busy at work that I never ate lunch, and was absolutely famished by the time I got home. So I had a double portion of halibut and an apple. Call it cheating if you will - I will never, ever, ever skip a meal again - especially on a day when I didn't take an injection!
So - stats for today: -.8 lbs makes a total of 15.6 lbs gone for this round, and a grand total of 39.6 since starting the HCG protocol at the beginning of the year. I'm loving these results!

Susan,
I take OTC store brand sleeping pills. They have never effected my weight loss. Good luck.
Susan,
Have you tried melatonin? I've heard people get great results from it. I've tried OTC sleeping pills before and they made me feel horrible. My sister's a nurse and she told me the OTC pills contain acetaminophen and benadryl and fillers. I'm going to try the melatonin to see if it helps. Best of luck, Pam
