Yep, that was it. I had been eating too much protein at lunch and dinner! See the difference 1-3 oz extra was making? Wow!
Had another appointment with my NLP Coach today - keeping me on track, tweaking and eliminating any limiting beliefs in order to support me unconsciously in the conscious changes that I continue to make.
I'd better explain that for those who are not in the field of Neuro Linguistic Programming, Time Line Therapy TM and Hypnosis.
Did you know that all Learning, Behaviour and Change happens at the unconscious level.
Have you ever tried to change a behaviour consciously, it takes forever. That's because your unconscious mind (domain of our emotions, feelings and drives our behaviour) is the goal getter and your conscious mind (thinking, logical and analytical) is the goal setter.
So you're thinking (conscious mind) that you want to change a habit but unbeknown to you there's a program running in the unconscious mind that disagrees, you will be unsuccessful in changing it permanently.
That's why I love my work so much, with my many quick, easy and fun tools/techniques, I'm able to assist my clients in making the changes that they want to make at the unconscious level so that they are permanent.
Lots more on that subject of your unconscious mind at my workshops.
Cheers to Your Health,

Wow, how appropriate is this quote for me today!
I'll admit I must've been having a man moment this time around and decided not to re-read the instruction booklet, specially in regards to portion size.
Long story short, it appears that I've been consuming 1-3 oz more protein at each meal! (4-5 oz, not 6-8 oz) Yikes!!! Glad I realized this now, rather than at day 45.
Well that would explain a lot, especially the weight loss not being as much as I would've figured by this point
Back to the drawing board...
I'm certainly learning a lot that I continue to work into my programs to make sure that my clients achieve their results. The difference that I make as a Coach offering these programs, is that not only have I lived this and learnt from it but I have combined the HCG with NLP to guarantee the success is permanent.
We can guarantee our results with NLP Coaching because everyone always achieves their results. I knew that I would achieve my weight loss goal with NLP, regardless of HCG, and I, like everybody else, just wanted the visible results faster :)

Remember I said organization is very important. Well today on the way home from the cottage (takes me 2 1/2 hrs.)I knew I was going to be late for supper-not good.
Thought about stopping at Wendy's for a grilled chicken and could throw the bun away but I still need my greens-not like I can eat a salad while driving. Decided against that. Thought I'd stop at Cosco and get my chicken there (it's so much more inexpensive) even though you're supposed to have organic and just throw it on the BBQ when home.
I had drank all the water I brought with me for the ride, took one, should've taken at least 2 bottles. Again, I'd thought about driving through Tim's and get a water and a Green Tea...but didn't. Hindsight's always 20/20. Make note.
So the same thing happened that happened before (Day #13), I get home, I'm so hungry I'm almost sick to my stomach, it's after 8, I drink a glass of water but it's not good enough. If you don't eat when you're supposed to and let yourself get too hungry then look out! You can just imagine what I heard myself saying...
I was at the cottage 2 days, Sat. indulged in a few glasses of wine and because no supper 'til late, I got into some snacks! Cost me 2 lb. by Sunday a.m. and I felt yucky. Terrible headache and upset stomach, wasn't such a good idea after all. The rest of the time ate what I should and on time - I actually cooked both proteins at lunch so that I could have my supper at "my time". Therefore, as of today, I'm back down the 2 to 191.5, strange thing the BF went up by .5 so I'm wondering if my Sea Bass was too big. Think I'll stay away from that for now.
On the flip side, I'm pretty pleased that I was on my game more than I was off. In the past, whatever program I was on before I went to the cottage, went down the drain the whole time there. In fact, when I chose to have the wine and snacks it was a conscious choice, thanks to the tools and techniques of NLP (Neuro Linguistic Programming) and TLT (Time Line Therapy TM).
I remember 2 years ago, before my daughter got married I had been "consciously" trying to lose weight and I just seemed to be getting bigger, so out of desperation one day, Feb. '07, on the way home from work I went to L.A. Weight loss and signed up. It cost me around $1300, ($600 for me to go and get weighed in 1-3 times a week, $400 for bars that were supposed to kill your appetite.) Over the next 5 months, I think I reduced in total 8 lb. and then it just went back on plus more!
Anybody, like me, who's been challenged with weight issues probably has a few of these stories in their back pocket, I know I certainly do.
NLP & TLT are the tools that make the difference. How? By creating the permanent changes you want to make in your life - quickly, easily and effortlessly!

Day #15 "Create a definite plan for carrying out your desire, and begin at once, whether you're ready or not to put it into action." Napoleon Hill
Day #15 - 191lb (down 1/2), Body Fat 41.5 (same) - Total so far: 8 1/2lb
Well as I said before the plan and preparation is the key.
Am going to the cottage for a day or two and the truck is loaded. lol
I've got my supply of grapefruit, berries, spinach, arugula, apples, fish, chicken, teas, HCG drops, B12 drops, my tracking book and my bathroom scale!
Although it is my intention to do my best, the wagon may tip a little bit...hopefully not

Day #14 "The important thing is not to be afraid to take a chance. Remember, the greatest failure is not to try...
Once you find something you love to do, be the best at doing it." - Debbi Fields, Founder of Mrs. Fields Cookies
Day #14 - 191.5 same as yesterday, Body Fat 41.5 (down 1.5)
I'd like to adjust the quote and change the word "try" to "attempt it". In my vocab "try" equals "fail".
For example, ever try and pick up a pencil say off the table, go ahead, pick it up. You either pick it up or you don't. Same as you ask a friend if they'd like to come over on the w/e for a visit and they say, "I'll try", you might as well say, OK well I won't be expecting you then.
Here's my question, when was the last time you heard yourself say "try" in a sentence. Picture what was going on. Did you do it or not? If you didn't, I bet you had no intention to when you said "I'll try".
I use the expression "do your best", useful when asking a child or a person to attempt something, especially new.
So in regards to this protocol, I'm doing my best to stay on the straight and narrow.
It's especially challenging when life throws you a curve ball, little or big, like it did me yesterday. You need to be prepared for the unexpected.
You'll find that you want to cheat. NLP teaches up that under stress we tend to want to revert to our old ways. When you realize/recognize that you're leaning that way stop, be still for just a second or two and ask yourself, ok, do I really want to throw away all those good feelings, all the happy sounds and seeing those successes on the morning scales and in the mirror? If the anwer is no, then if you're like me, I quickly swig back a glass of water and put the kettle on for a nice comforting cup of green tea. Focus on the end result.
Also I remind myself, "If you cheat you're only cheating yourself!"

"Surrounded by people who love life, you love it too; surrounded by people who don't, you don't." Mignon McLaughlin
Day #13 - up 1 (191.5) up 1% body fat-ouch
I don't know why but I somehow thought that rainbow trout was allowed. If in doubt, check the list, which I did this a.m., it's not. Only fresh white fish, sole, flounder, veal, lobster, crab, shrimp, halibut, 3 egg whites (daily), wild chilean sea bass, turkey, chicken breast or beef (limited) - all organic (Hormone and additive free).
I've also learnt that when going out for lunch, order the following: cooked chicken breast, salad greens, 1/2 lemon. Just keeps it simple, yes I know repetitive but it's only for 26 or 45 days.
The HCG programs can be as short as 26 days or as long as 45 days.
Everyone is different, and everyone will have different results.
Some people will lose 9lbs their first week and only 2lbs their second week; while others will lose 4lbs both the first and second week. Everyone slows down at some point and will usually hit a plateau.
By following the specific program outlined, you will lose weight safely and rapidly from the areas of the body that contain stored abnormal fat.
During this program, generally men will see better and quicker results than women.
So in a nutshell:
Weigh and record it daily, measure 1st and every 10th day.
Phase I is the first two days where you "Binge" (eat double the calories you normally would) and take HCG drops a.m. & p.m.
Phase II day three to forty-five, HCG drops a.m. & p.m., B12 drops every other day, eat 500 calories of the approved foods and drinks.
Phase III Maintenance - now that the weights off as most of you serial dieters know, this is the most important part. Here you eat 1500 cal of the approved foods. You're looking to completely reset the hypothalamus gland, improve your metabolism & support endocrine systems. During this phase you looking to install a new weight set and point in your body and you should attempt to keep your weight as steady as possible. The faster this is done and more consistent one stays at a weight, the quicker the body takes over in making sure the new weight is maintained.

"The real winners in life are the people who look at every situation with an expectation that they can make it work or make it better."
Quote by Barbara Pletcher - Author
Day #12 - down 1.5 lb, body fat up .5%
Yesterday was a great day until the early afternoon, was out shopping and Bam! didn't think I'd make it back home to the bathroom in time or whether to kneel or sit down when I got there! Wow, was I sick, lasted 2 1/2 hours, then gone.
Dr. Hamer's work, which I studied this winter, he calls it a "healing crisis" due to a resolution of an emotional conflict. I think I would've appreciated it a little easier myself, with a little notice that it's coming but the quick part I like, rather than lasting 24 hours or so. His work marries very nicely with NLP and TLT, so for anyone that's curious check out www.newmedicine.ca
Well, then you can imagine what happened to the rest of my day...no apple in the afternoon-too busy in the bathroom. Remember I said about planning and having the correct foods on hand, hmmm, well, I had planned when I was out earlier to buy groceries, so I still needed to go.
So off I go and by the time I get home, I'm getting hungry, it's after 8 (it's recommended that you don't eat past 8), I'm still feeling weak, decide to cook spinach (allowed) but the look of the raw fish in the fridge is not doing it for me, I want comfort...oh oh.
Note to Self: Remember before starting the protocol to clean out the Junk/Snacks cupboard and other unsupportive foods for your health while on the program.
Needless to say, I found and ate 8 tostitos and a whack of cheese (about 1 oz.) - both of which are not allowed! Which would explain the Up .5% of fat. Oh well, today is a new day and this is called life! :)
Also, we're all just doing the best we can with the resources available and when it comes to your awareness that you need something, ask-where can I get these and go and get them...take action!
