Diabetes and HCG diet week 2 food, weight, insulin journal

Day 8:  274.6 pounds, blood sugar 4.5 in the am, 20 units HCG, 8 units humulin N am (reduced from 15 as golfing today), 15 units humulin N pm, blood sugar good all day 12.2 before bed.  Food: celery, Apple, chicken breast, tomato, chicken breast, strawberries.

Notes:  officially over 10 pounds lost in first week.  Grocery shopping yesterday not fun… Too much food to look at.  Feeling great.  Not hungry, drinking lots of water. Golfing went great.  Lowering insulin made blood sugar perfect.  Had to watch my partner eat and drink beer.  Drank 5-6 litres of water.

Day 9:  273 pounds, blood sugar 9.5 in am, blood sugar 15 at bed, 15 units humulin N am, 20 units HCG, 16 units PM, 4 units humalog at bed.  Food:  cucumber, chicken breast, tomato, chicken breast, strawberries, orange.

Notes:  First week check up with doctor today.  Went great.  Refreshed my supply of HCG. I am so happy to be getting close to under 270 pounds.  Also my work place started a contest this month for whoever can lose the most weight by percentage.  Pot is $280 so now I have even more motivation!

Day 10: 272.4 pounds, blood sugar 4.5 in am, 15 units humulin N am, 16 units humulin N pm, 20 units HCG, Cucumber, chicken breast, cod, tomato, Apple, orange.

Notes:  doctor said that there will likely be a stall usually in the 2nd week.  I am still down over .5 pounds but perhaps a stall is coming.  Feeling great but was a bit more hungry yesterday than usual.

Day 11:  271 pounds, blood sugar 9.5 in am, 15 units humulin N am, 20 units HCG, 3 units humalog, 16 units humulin N. Food: celery, chicken breast, tomato, chicken breast, Apple, orange

Notes: back down over 1 pound…YES! I am not drinking as much water… Only 2-3 litres. I think that is why I am more hungry.  Also getting a little bored with the food but it is easy to decide what to eat since the choices are so limited. Gonna look up some HCG diet recipes online for the weekend.  All in all still feeling good.

Day 12:  270 pounds, Blood sugar 6.6 in am, 15 units humulin N, 20 units HCG, 15 units humulin N pm. Food: tomato, chicken breast, cucumber, scallops, Apple, orange 

Notes: saw a box of cookies out today and just about tore into them.  Some of my cravings still come and go but overall not too bad. Water is the solution.  Without water I am very hungry.

Day 13: 269.6 pounds. Blood sugar 7.6 in am, 15 units Humulin N, 20 units HCG, 15 units humulin N pm. Food: scallops, tomato, chicken breast, cucumber, 2 apples.

Notes: weight not down a whole bunch today but still down slightly so overall looking good.  Tomorrow is end of 2 weeks which means I am well over halfway there.

Day 14:  271.6 pounds. Blood sugar 6.6 in am, 15 units humulin N, no HCG (day off), 

Notes:  ending week 2 up 2 pounds from yesterday.  I don’t feel heavier and thought I would be down again.  Seems maybe I need an apple day to reignite my weight loss.  Going to go one more day first… After all is is a holiday today so I need a little protein!
