8 Days of hCG

A full week of injections is complete.  Total weight loss for the 2 weeks we've been doing the diet is 14 pounds, 10 during detox and 4 during injections.  I thought it would be more on injections but oh well 4 is nice!!  Yesterday was my worst day.  I don't know if I was sick, tired, or just sick and tired but I was very weak and lightheaded all day.  All I could really do was sleep.  Now, that could have very well been from working 4 nights in a row, 4 very rough nights at that.  Either way, I'm better today and back at work and not the least bit dizzy or sick feeling. 

I'm trying to figure out the best way to approaching my eating schedule since I work nights and it's definitely all screwed up.  When I work, I eat my 3 meals at night, but when I'm off it's hard to figure out when to eat since I already ate the whole night before.  Since I only work one night and then off one day tomorrow, I ate lunch at home and will eat dinner and a snack at work.  Mom made chicken, spinach and strawberry salad with strawberry vinegarette for lunch which was pretty tasty.  For dinner she made a version of shrimp spring rolls, kind of like seasoned shrimp wrapped in cabbage leaves.  I'm excited to eat those but I'm trying to hold off until I'm really hungry so I don't suffer the rest of the night.  Both meals are super low calorie.  Both of us are continually amazed at how delicious of meals we can make with so few calories!  We're getting creative!  I don't know what I'd do without Mom though, she always has something delicious made up when I've had to sleep all day.  And it's good to have a partner during this crazy thing! 

Really can't wait til it's over... I really want some goldfish!
