Only lost 6 ounces in 2 days!

Day 10
268.4
-.06


I have to say, I was a little disappointed when I woke up this morning and weighed! Especially since I didn't lose anything yesterday. I guess that is the problem when the first week of dieting you have your biggest weight loss which is normal but I would of rather took it a pound a day or something like that. Of course, I say that TODAY but I was quite happy when I lost it last week!

So I am beginning to recheck what I am doing wrong, if anything. I realize my body may just be adjusting but I wanted to double check so I decided to find out if the foods I was eating was over the 500 calorie mark. I looked up an online calorie counter and found that the food I ate yesterday was about 554.

My mistake I made there was cocktail sauce with the shrimp. I don't know if I had a full serving or not but I can have 14 medium shrimp and so I am sure I did. That alone is 60 calories!!! I didn't realize how many calories was in it and thought it was okay because there was no sugar on the label. Not too sure if I will like my shrimp plain--maybe with lemon???

So I usually eat the same thing everyday--

Get up have a big glass of herbal tea at 6:30
Do drops at 8:00 and sometimes have 4 or 5 fat free crackers (44-60 calories)
Then I am lazy and usually go back to bed for an hour or so.....

Get back up ***well it is almost 9 now and so I haven't gone back to sleep yet LOL! But usually,
Get up about 10:30 and in the next half hour take the drops and drink more herbal tea.

Lunch I have a bed of lettuce (12 calories) shredded up chicken (124 calories) and the strawberries and juice (45 calories) **I take the strawberries and cut them up --then sprinkle with the stevia and pour lemon juice over them! It draws out the juice and makes a type of dressing for the salad.

Sometimes if I get hungry I may use my second set of crackers here (44 cal) or a piece of fruit

Around 4 or 5 ish take the last set of drops and either have
14 medium shrimp (90 calories) with a tomotoe (33 calories)

or I have done the 1 whole egg with 3 egg whites (didn't look that one up yet)

Later if I am still hungry before bedtime (later hours of the night--9ish) then I will eat the crackers or the fruit whichever one I didn't eat before.

As for the water, I must say I am struggling with that! I drink like maybe 16 oz of water and the rest of it is herbal tea. I started putting lemon juice in it yesterday and actually got in a little more. I need to work on that this week and see if it helps.




Hopefully I will lose something tomorrow!
