Alternative Correction Days

...still getting along pretty well.  However, I was up over my lowest weight by 3 lbs this morning.  Oops!  I really do love Phase 3, but sometimes it gets on my nerves because you really have to watch your own body and what may affect weight gain for some may not for others.  So it really is a learning process.  I found this site that lists some Alternative Correction Days!!!  Listed are the following:  High Fat Correction Day (which seems a little risky to me too many places to go wrong, in my opinion), Nut Day (which sounds a little difficult to stick to and pretty expensive- nuts are not cheap!),  Chicken Day (sounds wonderful- part of the reason Steak Days are so difficult for me is refraining from eating all day long... so being able to eat on a home roasted chicken sounds yummy!), and the Egg Day.  And of course, there is the Apple and Cheese Day.  Love having some options!  Today I am giving the Egg Day a shot.  I will report in the morning.  I kind of messed up in the afternoon, though... had some nuts and raisins.  Afternoons are killers for me.  This time of day is so difficult sometimes!  

Anyway, to answer a comment left in the previous post.  Homeopathic HCG is a little different than injectable form.  You don't have to wait as long to start a next round, at least that is what I have learned.  Feel free to correct me, if any one out there knows better! :)  I am waiting 4 weeks to start my next round, which I probably should wait 6 weeks, but I just don't have the time or patience to wait.  Let's hope I don't shoot myself in the foot. :)  

I will be back in the morning and I am hoping I can get back down to my lowest weight soon!  Hope you all are well!

  1. Medically, homeopathic HCG can't have more than a trace (if that) of the actual hormone in it. Many doctors believe homeopathic HCG is not HCG at all. I hope that's not offensive, but I happened to watch a program on this recently and I did a bunch of reading on the different types of HCG when I started my first round!

    Basically for something to be labeled homeopathic, it can't have much of the hormone, otherwise it would then be considered a drug and would have to be regulated as such.

  7. I did a chicken correction day and did not loose, However I did not gain either.
    I followed with a clean day.. and lost a pound. Today I am trying a High Fat Correction day.. Breakfast 2 eggs with bacon and avocado with bullet proof coffee lunch 3 oz shrimp with butter and garlic, crumbled bacon and avocado, snack cacao Crack with almonds, bullet proof coffee . Dinner 4 oz roasted chicken breast with skin. 1 oz of lettuce. Snack, Almonds and cacao crack . Seems weird to me don't understand how it works.. I was up just 2 pounds , not over so didn't want to do a steak day. maybe i should have ... I will let you know tomorrow if it worked.

  8. Actually, nut day can be done inexpensively. You're basically going to be eating a pound of nuts which can be as cheap as $10 at Target; 8.99 for Planters Deluxe Mixed Nuts (15.25 oz) & .99 for a single pack of cashews or pistachios. If you're going the raw nut route then go over to the baking aisle & grab a 16 oz bag of Fisher pecan halves for 10.28. Since this is the only thing you get to eat today chances are nut day is cheaper than just a regular food day because when's the last time you ate for less than $11 a day?
