I bet that you can do it by Sept in order to surprise your hubby!!!
Now what I eat in a typical day right now... hehehehe.....
Breakfast: None ( I can not eat when I first get up)
Lunch: Something like a hot pocket or some other microwave crap
Snacks: Cookies, Candy.... more crap. Sometime I do eat fruit or celery. But lately I've been really stressed so it's been bad bad eating.
Dinner: Huge plate of meat (beef, chicken) with mashed pot, stuffing, veggies
Snacks: More cookies, and candy... So it really is no wonder that I put on so much weight... Going from this to the VLCD for HCG is going to be quite a change:
Breakfast: Herbal tea or black coffee and 1 TBSP Milk ( I think a little Stevia is allowed). LOTS OF WATER!!!
Lunch: 100g of chicken, fish, (or beef on occasion), handful of veggies that are on the approved list (celery, cucumber, tomatoes) and either an apple, orange, strawberries, or 1/2 grapefruit. LOTS OF WATER!!!
Dinner: Same as dinner (although I think that they want you to eat a different protein and veggie). LOTS OF WATER!!!
You can save your fruits from lunch to have as a snack too. And you can't use any butter, oil or dressings to cook. Lots of stuff to do!! And to stay under 500 calories. So it's a big change. Friday will be my first low-calorie day (after my two day loading), so we shall see.
