Phase 4 – Start of Week 2

Weight: 176

I had a 3 pound weight increase in one day.  Yesterday I weighed 173, and I had been on the low end of the 170’s all week.

While that’s a bummer, yesterday was the first time I recall having blood sugar issues since starting the hCG diet, and it happened twice yesterday.  I try to eat high protein items, but when my blood sugar drops, all is fair game; I eat anything and everything in sight, and I eat often.  I’m certain that is the reason for the increase, along with not drinking enough water.

My husband bought a new breakfast sausage, Sweet Apple chicken sausage, which I suspect is the root of the problem.  Because he was trying to surprise me, I didn’t get to review the ingredients ahead of time.  While it was gluten free, it had 10 grams of carbs, mostly from the maple sugar and evaporated cane juice.  I thought it would be OK; after all, I have been eating more carbs.

I will not be eating that product again.
