HCG Diet phase 2 - Day 4

Today was a much better day than yesterday. For starters, I lost another 3 lbs since yesterday. Woohoo! I'm really not looking forward to when this 3 lbs a day loss streak ends. I know it will. For now though, I am just super excited to have lost 8 lbs from my starting weight. In 4 days. Yay for me! Also, what made today pretty great was that I really wasn't all that hungry between meals. I felt really satisfied after both my lunch and supper, and all in all I just felt good. I'm hoping that my body has finally gotten used to this new way of eating and that this will be the norm from here on out.

For Breakfast today I had Strawberries and Green Tea. While I was taking the picture of my food, my kiddies wanted me to take a picture of their breakfast also. So I did. I didn't eat that cereal!




 For Lunch I made Taco Salad. It was super delish. It really filled me up and I felt extremely satisfied after I ate.

Taco meat (I made 4 servings worth)

400g ground chicken
2 cloves garlic
1 tsp onion powder
1 tbsp chilli powder
1/4 to 1/2 cup chicken broth
sprinkle liquid aminos
Salt & pepper to taste

Fry everything in a pan, minus half the chicken broth. Once cooked, add rest of broth and simmer for a few minutes. Portion and/or sprinkle on top of 4 cups lettuce.

I also sprinkled a small piece of lemon over the salad as well as salt and pepper.


 I might end up making this or a different version of this everyday from here on out. It was that good!

 For Dinner I had baked Tilapia with Asparagus. It was excellent as well.

Baked Tilapia

To make this I put one 100g serving of tilapia and my previously frozen asparagus onto some parchment paper(Which I folded into a closed packet. I sprinkled with Dill, garlic salt and pepper. Topped the fish with 3 lemon slices, and baked in a 400F oven for around 20 minutes(Or until the fish flakes easily with a fork).

Since this was such a mild tasting fish, I will definitely be making this for my husband and kids. Try it out, you won't be disappointed!


 For my evening snack I had a cup of cherries.
