I am alive! I decided that since I am starting a round on September 3rd that I needed a mental holiday from the obsessing and constant weighing. I haven't weighed in a week and it is still in the back of my mind but I am just trying to enjoy. I feel like I am staying the same, my clothes still fit the same, I have become for conscious about my belly but I feel like it has been that way since I added back in carbs.
Dont worry I will go back to updating frequently when I start P2

yep.. still P4
Yeah.. So I think I spent all of yesterday pooping.. supper gross I don't know what was wrong with my stomach! I suspect some of it might be that I am allergic to cashews and I didn't realize they were hidden in my nut clusters I was eating. By the time dinner rolled around I wanted bread to help my sick tummy so I had an open faced turkey sandwich. Down -2.4 today!
I have been feeling kinda fat recently, its so funny because I know I have lost 30 pounds but some days I don't feel like I haven't lost anything! I still feel supper self concision about my belly fat. I took measurements for the first time in about a month and I am exactly the same on my arms and chest, down .8 on my thighs, but up half an inch on my hips, 1 inch on my waist and 2 inches in my bust. Its funny how everything reportions itself when my weight stays exactly the same!
I think I am going to do another round after September 3rd. Hopefully that will be good timing because I will be settled into a school schedule and I cant think of any big celebrations.

The self doubt monster
I am 1.6 over LDW today, not surprised though.. I think my diet yesterday consisted of mostly cupcakes and cookies :( I am living by the be good through the week manta so I can correct all the bad things I do over the weekend. I am learning to take it easy on myself because I have learned with a couple of days of good eating I will always drop right back to where I was!
The self doubt monster is creepy back up today and I considering if I need to do another round. I have been so confident lately about my body and where I am, plus the supper hunky guy didnt hurt, but today I look at my little muffin top over my junior size 7 shorts and wonder if I need to loose more? I have a feeling this will always be an ongoing thing... right now is a horrible time to start a round anyways maybe I will consider it when the school year starts.

Maintence is going!
So I am not really an every day blogger anymore since I have hit the lifelong maintenance stage, things just aren't as exciting as reporting that I lost a pound like everyday when I was in P2! But things are still good none the less!!
I am really impressed with my body and the power of HCG resetting things. Yes I am in the maintance phase so technically I can eat whatever I want but I still have to weigh in daily and make sure that I am staying on track. There are days where I eat horribly and I know it, sometimes the scale shows it and I am up but two days later as long as I eat more P3 style- no added sugar or starch, then I am right back down to where I want to be! I need to start adding back in exercise, I have been so busy with work that I haven't really had the motivation, plus seeing that my weight will stay almost exactly where I want it to without it doesn't help to much either.

P4D4
So I didn't have a bite a funnel cake... but I did have almost a whole elephant ear. :- p
I ate really good P3 cottage cheese with homemade whip cream (Stevia) and strawberries for breakfast. Lunch was snacks on the go string cheese, package of 100 calorie cocoa roast almonds, and then some True North blueberry almond pecan cluster- really yummy if you haven't tried them. After the fair I stopped by a friends house to visit and when he heard I hadn't really eaten dinner he insisted that I eat his left over broccoli rice casserole and a chicken thigh.
I was sure I was going to be back up today but nope down -1.4! Heading back into the 158's hopefully by tomorrow if I eat pretty well today! I think alot can be said about the theory of set points, I feel like my body has definitely reset to be around 157-158 and always finds its way back there if I give it a little help!

Offically P4
So I decided to move into P4 on Friday. Just like in P3 the idea is to add grains and sugars back in slowly.... yeah add me to the weekend fatty club! I way over did it this weekend! You name it I ate it! I have had no desire to cook for myself this week, and I know how to make good choices when eating out but once I start cheating I feel like I might as well get it all out of the way before deciding to be good again.
My LDW is 160.2 but I have spent my whole month of P3 between 157 and 158. I call 160 the danger zone because it is were I do not want to be! I am 161.2 today, I know being 1 pound over LDW isn't bad but I want out of the 160's stat! I am thinking about doing an egg day, but it would have to wait till tomorrow because we are going to the fair tonight and a bite, just one I swear, of funnel cake might end up in my mouth!
