Well, today's menu consists of:
Breakfast: Big omelet(with canadian bacon, turkey sausage,onion, tomatoes and cheddar cheese)
Snacks: 1 oz mixed nuts adn Apple w/ Peanut Butter
Lunch: Bowl chicken soup
Dinner: Not really hungry..did not eat anything till later and had a Creamy Chocolate Milkshake...not bad for dinner, huh??? The recipe is below.

Here is the recipe I found for an HCG friendly chocolate milkshake that I think will work for those on P3...but judge for yourself.

1/2 cup nonfat cottage cheese
1/2 cup nonfat milk
1 2 tbsp serving s/f chocolate syrup (I used unsweetened cocoa)
2 servings 1 packet sweetener (stevia/splenda)
1 cup ice cubes
I put all the ingredients into the Vitamixer and blended on variable speed starting at 1 and quickly going up to 10 for about 30 seconds.

I made this tonight and used chocolate stevia, vanilla cream stevia and some plain stevia to desired sweetness. I doubled the recipe and shared with my Tim and Kayla..they loved it and so did I. I think it worked out perfectly, since Tim is following the South Beach Diet and is on Phase 1..this works for that too!:)

Now I know many on the various HCG protocols say to stay away from the nonfat dairy, but I follow Linda Prinsters Pounds and Inches Away (who bases everything following Dr. S's manuscript very strictly) and dairy is the only area she says we do NOT have to steer clear of the nonfat versions, as sugars are not added to make up for the lack of fat. So, again, judge for yourself...but if you feel it is something you can enjoy, I hope you will :)
