Day 14 - 7/17/13

Weight - 311.8, up .2 pounds from yesterday, 22.4 from end of loading phase.

Hunger - Woke up feeling good. Not happy with the weight loss today but a plateau is to be expected with almost 2 weeks of consistent weight loss. No problems today with feeling excessively hungry.

Snack - Orange - 10am
Meal#1 - FYV Mexican Chicken Soup - 12pm
Snack - Almond Rounds - 3pm
Meal#2 - FYV Gingered Beef and Cabbage - 6:30pm
Snack - Apple, Almond Rounds, 9pm

Drops - 8:30am, 3:30pm, 9:30pm
Water - 100oz

Summary - I had my follow-up appointment with Dr. Yarger today. With my hunger levels it wasn't surprising that my ketones were measured on the "very high" range and her suggestion was to eat 2 more pieces of fruit a day. I can also have the Blue Diamond Nut Thins (I call them rounds for short hand) x6 twice a day. So bonus for me! I'm going to pick up some strawberries and some more apples tomorrow. The rest of my levels looked great, although my pH balance was at 6, and she wants it a little less acidic so I'm taking a sodium phosphate pill homeopathic tablet a couple times a day to help. As I mentioned not happy with the .2 gain today but in the grand scheme of things that's to be expected. Dr. Yarger was very excited for my 22.4 loss through this period. One day at a time...
