Well let me tell you: 1 cup hot cocoa made with heavy cream, cacao, and sugar, with a splash of coconut rum and frangelico. Splurge! Pad Thai from Sundeck … I ordered it just with veggies and shrimp (no noodles) but the peanut sauce and its inevitable accompanying sugar are a splurge. 1 bloody mary…

Last day of the HCG diet!
Today, my friends, is Day 46 of the HCG diet, day 21 of phase 3, the primal hypothalamus-resetting stage. Wahoo! What will you eat tomorrow, Lyssa? I don’t know, anonymous blog reader asking the question. I am trying to decide. What do I miss this most? I honestly don’t miss much. I miss wine the…
I <3 Red Black Gym
Y’all know I like my workouts to look like play … Nature’s Garage Gym was my own personal playground, and then I did workouts on an actual playground. Well today I got to return to my roots at the Red Black Gym (nee SicFit) with the 1:15pm class with Big Mike. LOVED IT! Warmup: lots of…
HCG Diet Day 26 (Day 1 Strict Primal): All the Food I Ate
I had a lovely time eating today. I don’t expect to be this food-obsessed in the future, but it was nice to play with how much fat and food I could eat. I did get MUCH fuller MUCH faster, so I didn’t eat THAT much. Breakfast (10am): leftover kebab meat and spinach cooked in raw…

Day 19 HCG Diet
I am pleased to note that I am breaking habits … like the habit where you get back in from something (skiing, walking, shopping, running errands, whatever) and feel like it’s time for a snack. Am I really hungry? I don’t know, it’s just snack time! Thanks, after-school snacks, for ingraining that in my brain.…

Day 16 HCG Diet + No Sugar Cravings?
Two weeks down, just one more week of 500 calorie, no-fat eating left! … it gives me a new appreciation for fat. Butter and coconut milk in particular, for my healthy cooking. Butter for sauteeing, coconut milk for curries, soups, and more. I also can’t wait to eat spaghetti squash again, and not to have…
