I am sooo tired today, Jacob has a cold (which he decided to share with me) so he was coughing all night, woke up twice and came in our room. Then the dog decided she needed out, twice! I had a hard time falling back asleep every time I woke up so I probably only got about 4 hours of sleep!? I am the type of person that NEEDS at least 6-7 hours of sleep, 8 would be perfect! :( So today might be a long day and early to bed kind of day!
Yesterday was weigh in day and I am sad to say that for the first time ever I gained!?!? +0.8lbs!! Not a bunch but still, its weird to have a gain without having a real cheat!? I feel like I wasn't in ketosis for the past week, even though I had a huge loss the week before? I weighed myself at home on Sunday and was up almost 2lbs so I cut back on my coffee intake and had a big glass of water before I could have anymore coffee. I think this helped cause by weigh in day I almost dropped that weight and this morning I weighed myself again and I am back to 179.6 so hopefully this week will be much better!!
My coach was there this time, which made me happy cause I really don't like dealing with her niece. Not that her niece is mean but she is really skinny and has no clue about IP, if she was there again I was going to tell her I was switching coaches. So I was talking to my coach and since I am close to goal and I am going to Mexico in 5 weeks, we decided that I should start phasing out, starting next week I am moving on to phase II!! :o I'm kinda excited, kinda nervous. She says the only thing that really changes is that instead of having a shake with my lunch salad I have 5oz of lean meat, just like dinner. 5oz of meat is a lot! Part of me thinks about the cost, right now I am having about 1 1/2 chicken breast for dinner so I would have to buy/cook 3 chicken breast per day!!! WOW and meat is expensive too!! I think I will start buying it from Costco, they supposedly have good meat anyway. So I will do phase II for 2 weeks then switch to phase III and by the time we go on our trip I should be good! I might not be at goal though cause I will loose slower on phase II.
Oh - I got measured last night too cause even though I didn't loose any weight I told her I felt skinnier, my muffin top felt smaller. I have lost 4 inches alone in my waist since the middle of Dec!! She didn't believe it and asked me twice if the measuring tape was on my belly button!?! LOL So since starting with IP I have lost a total of 22 inches and 38.6lbs, in 13ish weeks!! :)
Tonight I am making veggie soup, I'm pretty excited about it - not sure why? Maybe cause it will be a change from having salad everyday and it will keep me nice and warm since it's winter here and not so nice out! I plan on using one of the 2 cups of veggies I'm allowed for the soup and still have one cup of veggies in my salad. But now I will feel like I have two meals, soup AND salad!! :) It might also make the transition to eating more a little easier!? I also have a couple WS products in my cupboard which are similar to IP but higher in carbs, so I was thinking I might use those up in my transition - maybe when I am in phase III? I'll have to check the labels on them to see if they are good!?
