Steak Day

Steak Day, oh Steak Day.
How I wish to stay
Right at Last Drop Weight.
Return now with Steak.

Ok.  It doesn't quite rhyme, but it's close.  lol.

P3: Steak Day video

This is a first attempt - can you see and hear everything ok?

Steak Day

Well, I was away from home all day yesterday. I didn't do the steak day, as I was supposed to! However, I drank so much water I felt like I should have had on a swim suit. :)

This morning, when I got on the scale, even without the steak, I was back within my LIW limits. On the high side, but still within the 2# limit. :) Steak Day avoided, but only because I drank so much water and ate like I was following P3 with lots of veggies and protein.

Lesson learned?

You *can,* even if it's not in the P&I book, avoid a steak day on P4 by increasing your water intake to your weight in ounces * .75. So, if your weight is 200, multiply that by .75 and drink 150 ounces of water during the day. Follow the P3 outlines, going heavy on the meats.

For me, it did basically the same thing as a Steak Day. Maybe it will for you, maybe it won't... But it's something you can put in your back pocket and try, should you need to.

Steak Day Tomorrow?

Well, I really tested things today - I ate at Skippers. Baked potato, clam chowder, fried shrimp & clams... The Skipper's Platter. I expect a steak day tomorrow, just from the excess sodium I tossed into my system today! Yikes!

But it sure was good!

I'll let you know if I have to do a steak day in the morning, k?
