Today is the last day of this diet! Hooray!
I am down to 190.6 which is 8.4 lbs lost. Hubby is actually up a pound today, which is weird, but we did eat a lot of salt with the turkey yesterday.
We had our left over chicken for most of the day and then I made a turkey (with mashed potatoes and gravy for the kids) and a side of mushrooms and zucchini for Hubby and myself.
I still felt hungrier yesterday than I expected. And I don't feel well today. I feel kind of shaky - like my blood sugar is going wonky or something. Then again, I'm not 100% sure I remembered to take my blood pressure medicine yesterday, so that might be it, too. I think I did, though.
Today is the soup day. I've actually made 2. I think the point of the "miracle" soup is that it's just full of veggies so there is little calories in it. Given that, I made one with a chicken base and added carrots, celery and onions to it. I prefer the flavor of chicken broth to the beef broth and the chicken base is 10 calories per cup - less than the beef soup base. So I've got both soups up there simmering and I've had a cup of the beef one so far. I don't feel as shaky, so it might be blood sugar that I was feeling ... not good.
It would be wonderful to dip down into the 180's. That was the lowest I got when I had lost all the weight during my "Year of Me." So it would be great to even see the scale hit that number.
I'm worried about today because I have court. It takes a lot of energy to get through a court day and if I don't have enough calories I'm afraid I might pass out in the courtroom. So, depending on how I feel, I may have to eat something more substantial before I go.
We shall see! I'll report in tomorrow for the total lost.
