Guest guest Posted July 2, 2004 Report Share Posted July 2, 2004 I'm stalled at 153..Haven't gone up or down in days. I spoke too soon! This morning I weighed 152. I have another question. I gather that it's the combination of the carbs & proteins that help the weight loss. So if I eat supper, and then a little while later, say 1/2 hour to an hour I'm hungry again (or still), and I want to eat more vegetables, can I do that? Or if I want to have a little more meat? Would I have to have more of everything, so as not to screw up the balance? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted July 21, 2004 Report Share Posted July 21, 2004 Today was a difficult eating day for me because I was at an all day seminar and ate at a food court. The day started off wrong because I was running late, so I skipped breakfast, except coffee with skim milk. At the seminar, I had another 1/2 cup of coffee with half and half (just a tad). We didn't get a break until 11 a.m., so I had to wait until then to eat 15 cashews from a bag I had bought at a convenience store while waiting for the bus to go to the seminar. I had a salad with chicken for lunch, but there was some kind of marinade on the chicken that may have been made with sugar, so I didn't eat all of it. I drank a couple of bottles of water throughout the day, and at 3 o'clock, I had an apple from the snacks that were provided. (I was very proud, because I turned down Pepperidge Farms Milano cookies for the apple!). It is the first fruit I've had since starting the diet. For supper I had stir fried pork, with peppers & onions on 1/2 of a whole wheat pita, broccoli and a glass of skim milk. My snack was a sugar free popsicle. I've never had fruit and a grain on the same day, so we'll see what tomorrow brings, weight wise. Betty in RI Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 21, 2004 Report Share Posted July 21, 2004 Betty how long have you been in PH2? I started PH 2 with 1 fruit & 1 grain right fr the first day on PH2 I have had a steady loss. Most days I have 2 fruits & 1 grain or startchy veg but im working on upping my grains to 2. I have been on PH2 since the end of May I think I should be having more PH2 stuff than im currently eating. It I think your safe having them together on the same day. Did you get any cravings after eating them, and splurge later on? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you get any cravings after eating them, and splurge later on? I guess this must be my second week on Phase 2, but it's been more like Phase 1.5. I don't know if you would call it cravings, but after eating the apple I seemed hungrier than before I ate it. That's what seems to happen: I eat, I'm full, and then minutes later, I feel like I haven't eaten at all....actual hunger pangs. That's why I asked in a much earlier post if that happens, you can have "seconds" of vegetables or protein, or if you should just ignore it. Sometimes celery does the same thing...I'm hungrier after I eat it than before. Any "cravings" I've ever had were more in my head than physically in my stomach...I would just start thinking about a binge, and next thing you know, I'm at the store stocking up on chocolate or potato chips/tortilla chips & dip. Or eating tons of pasta or Italian bread. Usually the desire was for either/or, but sometimes there would be the double whammy desire for both chocolate and starch.
