My HCG Diet: Day 25
Day 25! It's the last day on HCG. The 500 calorie diet is coming to an end. It was a successful venture, and I'm so glad I did it. But I'm also looking forward to not limiting myself to 500 calories per day. I'm really in the habit of taking the oral HCG drops which was fabulous while I was on it, but it's kind of funny now that I'm not supposed to be taking it anymore. (You don't take it for the last three days of the low calorie diet).
I'm at 150. That was the final weigh in as of this morning. So I'm down just one more pound. I officially lost 21 pounds in 25 days. I'm thinking that's a pretty amazing feat. And since I learned so many good habits while I was on the diet it's so much more likely that I'll stick to my new weight. I drink tons more water now. I eat healthy food and I know how to cook (and enjoy eating) a bunch of different healthy recipes. I weigh myself religiously every morning.
I thought about making one of the smoothies again today...but again, it was too cold. So I had fresh strawberries with some Vanilla Creme Stevia (just a tiny bit; last time I used way too much). With my strawberries I had some Melba Toasts and I made Turkey Tomato Soup. I'm still loving all the yummy soup recipes in the HCG Diet Direct cookbook.
I did the pitcher thing this morning to make sure I got all the water I needed. I didn't want to do anything wrong on my very last day! I'm aiming for perfection. It's my last chance.
For dinner I grilled some chicken (with my new favorite seasoning, Creole) and paired it with my favorite steamed cabbage and followed it with Mock Apple Cobbler. It was kind of like a mini HCG approved feast.
Sometimes people keep losing weight once they go on the maintenance diet (at least that's what I heard while reading the oral HCG reviews). I hope I'm one of them. Who wouldn't want to lose even more weight? But if I'm finished and I don't lose anymore weight I'm good to go! I've lost 21 pounds. And that's a fabulous success in my eyes! - 17274
