Today: 121.6
LIW: +6.6

P3 Day 14

LIW: 222.0
Today: 225.0
LIW: +3.0

Breakfast: 1 clementine w/ 1/4 C 2% cottage cheese
Lunch: 1/2 grapefruit, 1/2 C cottage cheese
Dinner: 1/5 of Paul’s AMAZING eggplant lasagna
Snacks: 2 organic (no sugar added) fruit flat, 1 small square of Lindt 75% chocolate
Water: 100 oz

Total Cals= 1374, Carbs= 67, Protein= 76, Fats= 48

Ed's Menu:
Breakfast: 1/2 grapefruit
Lunch: 2 pieces of pizza (at his buddies Pizza Parlor)
Dinner: 1/5 eggplant lasagna
Snack: popcorn, 1 square of Lindt 75% chocolate

I just can't seem to get this right! I was SO MAD this morning when I stepped on the scale and saw the gain. I think the problem yesterday was that I didn't eat enough cals but what am I suppose to do...eat ALL day? I just don't get hungry much and when I do, I eat. I made Paul's amazing eggplant lasagna yesterday and it was so satisfying, filling and delicious! Ya'll saw Ed's menu so even after eating the pizza and POPCORN he only gained 1 lb. I'm tellin' ya this P3 is tricky stuff, and the key is to EAT!!!

My legs and calves are so sore I swear I can barely walk. Ed had an appointment this morning so I did my jog/walk with Jackson (our pup) for 50 min. and then did my workout. I'm glad I don't have to work out this weekend-I need to let my body re-coop!

Today we are going to the Art Festival downtown and I'm sure I won't have any problems getting my cals in (hee, hee)! We plan on eating before we go (which should help)! I want to go get wings and beer for dinner so we'll see.....

Okay, in response to our blogger buds-
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hi Jan, our P3 Pro- Um, yeah P4 is right around and it sure will be interesting to see how I do after my "modified P3" (wink, wink)! I told ya I'm doing it backwards-P4 THEN P3 LOL!

Liz- I've been wonderin' about you! I checked your blog last night but no update. P3 has gone fast (probably because we've been having so much fun)! The work outs are here to stay. The ladies book that I'm following has the hottest body and weighs 120 (a pound off of where I'm at) she looks smokin' HOT so she's my motivation not LIW! C'mon over to Texas and get you some SUN! Oh, I feel for ya! Today on my walk it was a perfect 76 degrees-LOVE IT!

Lil- My good 'ole buddy girl! I read your blog last night and I see you are out playing with the big dawgs-YOU GO GIRL! Those endorphins are the best and YES it is so addicting. OMG, P2 already? Okay, we are all here for ya cheering you on! Thanks for the comment on the pics-awwww!

Hi Shell- I know, I wanna be like you! You are eating and loving life and staying stable. If I could just stay stable right here I'd be just fine. Um, so how long after working out do you not get sore anymore? I'm dying and I swear the 2nd day after is the WORST!

Mary- Thanks as always sweet Marrray! I drank some Cab Merlot last night and thought of ya! Hope all is well. Guess what? It's Friday!!!!

Becca- I need to make sure your account is "active" in the forum. I will make sure and check on that today. What's with all your technical problems? Are you sure it's not on the "user end"...just kiddin'! How do you like your hair hot mama?

Biz
- So what? Not enough cals huh? It is just a "thang" and I need find something that I can beat when the scale goes up after I've been a "good girl!" It makes me so frustrated! I'm so sick of the scale ya know?! Whip me into shape sista!

Ya'll we made it to Friday! Hold on I need to do a cartwheel!

Make it a GREAT DAY!

pooh on that itty bitty gain. I think that you're right though, you are NOT getting your calories in. Why are you eating all that low cal stuff? You can eat good fats and lots of protein. Just not all the sugar and starches like me! LOL!
I love to go to the art festivals! And your weather sounds like what we've been having, just a touch cooler. I don't like to talk about that too much on my blog though because it seems like I'm rubbing it in a little too much for all these easterners with the snow and cold and such. Poor thangs! They'll be rubbing it in to me this summer when I'm complaining about 115 degrees in the shade!
And the forum issue is mostly user error I'm sure. But I just don't like it. I want to log in, go to the messages and see what everyone's talking about like on the HCG2 group. I am to old to get used to another new venue. LOL! I don't want to have to go to a whole bunch of different places on the forum to see what everyone is talking about. I do that on the blogs!
Okay I'll shut up and quit my bit*@ing. But that's why I'm not spending too much time there. I'm not giving up yet though, I'll try it for a while, but it might not be for me in the long run...

Jenn, Hang in there!!! It will come together! i'm stable now that I'm NOT working out for a week...we'll see what happens NEXT week!

How 'bout adding some nuts to your diet? I know everyone says raw nuts are healthier, but a handful of roasted salted mixed nuts really give you a protein and energy boost, and will help add in good calories.

Don't beat yourself up, relax and enjoy the ride!! Your body is still rockin' and you'll be solid in no time, girl!!!

Thanks for having the wine for me!! I may just have a glass this evening with dinner, will think of you and toast to you and all of us in Protocoland. Hmmm, I may have to have more than one glass then, eh?

Luv ya, take care!!

Hey Jenn,
Hope the art show is fun! I love those things! In what part of Texas do you live? I bet it is beautiful this time of year! Tim and I have been complaining like crazy this year. I know it's just a matter of time when we just pack everything up and move down to the sunshine! I've lived in WA pretty much my whole life and the summers are beautiful here.... but that's it! Pretty much every other season sucks! LOL WAAAAY too much rain! My sister lives in Georgia and I've been thinking that maybe I will go there!

Anyhowsy.... I haven't looked at the new forum. I think I will check it out.

Oh and Keep up all your good work... You and Ed are such an inspiration to me!

Missing again eh? Well, I certainly missed you this weekend. Really. You have gone missing ever since you started P3 more often than ME!!!! That is NOT fair!
