Food Log: Day 20

AM Weight: 218 lb.

6 AM: HCG drops.

Note: It was a restless night without much sleep.

6:15 AM: Cold, black coffee

6:45 AM: 1 teaspoon phenylalanine. Reduced from one tablespoon to one teaspoon due to jittery stomach. Aspirin, magnesium, potassium.

10 AM: 5 oz. turkey with approximately 1 teaspoon wasabi. Approximately 4 grams (1 teaspoon) calcium ascorbate.

I have a nervous stomach due to a family issue that is keeping me on edge. Yesterday and again this morning I have had to force myself to eat. I am not sure if this is due to my anxiety or if I have "entered the zone" or both.


10:36 AM; Took hoodia but I am withholding the other nutrients. I will be away from home most of the day and I want to protect from a sudden wave of hunger. But given my stomach's behavior, I am skipping the other supplements for now.

Around 1 PM: 1 small slice of dried pineapple (20 calorie estimate.)

5 PM: 2 apple slices (8 to calorie estimate) 1 lb. (Shirataka) tofu noodles (faux macaroni), 1 1/3 cup salsa, one tablespoon cocoa, one tablespoon cinnamon, multivitamin, one teaspoon ascorbic acid (4 gram estimate)  Garcinia cambogia, berberine, carraluma fimbriata

Circa 7 PM: 3 tablespoons arginine mix.

8:42 PM: Half cup of cold, black coffee.

8:52 PM: HCG drops.

Ketosis circa 10:00 PM: About 2.0

10:25 PM: 1 cup of plain, whole milk yogurt. (It was thawed by my sigoth, thinking she was thawing mashed potatoes. She had previously purchased yogurt for me--a food item she loathes--prior to my going on The 30 Day Diet not knowing that whole milk yogurt is off-diet. Being one who will not waste food, I froze the yogurt in one cup units.) A serving of papaya.
I nibbled on miscellaneous veggies--lettuce, bean sprouts, baby cucumber--throughout the evening. Probably insignificant from a caloric or fat intake perspective.

10:45 PM:  5 oz. turkey breast with approximately 1 teaspoon wasabi, 10 Snyder's mini pretzels (55 calories per label) 2 oz. Ron Barcelo rum (should I decide to take up drinking, I have a new favorite drink) Garcinia cambogia, berberine, approximately 4 oz. calcium ascorbate, magnesium, potassium melatonin, diphenhydramine, multivitamin.

Recorded steps for May 8: 698. .19 miles. I did not have my step-recording device with me most of the day.

In bed before midnight. Extremely rare occurrence.

Food items I crave and want to consume at the conclusion of The 30 Day Diet: None.
