I got a note today from a fellow sufferer on the HCG, glad to know we suffer together.  Tonight, it was comical…  I ate crushed tomatoes, pureed with garlic and other seasons and added some ground turkey.  I got the recipe from a friend who has completed HCG and she loved it-I did too.

I made macaroni and cheese for the kids.  On HCG, one Melba Toast per meal (2 times a day) is permitted.  I felt like I wanted to eat the whole box, like it was the most delicious thing until I finished making the mac n cheese.  I REALLY wanted some of that!

Just like the 4 rolls and a blizzard, it is nothing I typically crave or want but see what happens when you deprive?  I am hanging tight on my 10 pound loss-nothing more yet.  I’m finished with the second phase on Sunday then I maintain.  I will be back on dairy and more vegetables but still sticking away from breads, pastas and grains.  I suppose having nuts, beans and diary in my diet will seem like a treat!
