Day 2 255

Day two. I lost one pound. The scale said 255.1 and yesterday the . (point) was higher, I just don't think I want to worry about ounces, that would stress me more I think. I should be happy with one pound and I am I just the 3 pound days!

I went walking this morning and that made me happy. I got up at 5:25 and got back at 6:50. I wonder what that will do to the scales, sometimes exercise doesn't do anything for me. A couple of years ago I went exercising for 6 months strait, 3-4 miles a day and lost nothing! I didn't change my eating habits but you would have thought I would have lost something!

I really want to be under the 250's and NEVER see it again. I wonder how long that will take. Hopefully just a week. Please! Ü

Round 2 Day 1, I'M BACK!


I'm BACK!!! I am starting today for my second round of HCG. I had some mixed in the refrigerator (thawed from storing it in the freezer from my last round) I had planned on starting again about 6 weeks ago but things happen...

Anyhow, I weighed myself today, back up a tiny from my all time low and even from my average low during this "off time". Today I am 256. I
HOPE to lose 30 lbs this round. Last round I think I lost 30 for a day or maybe 28 or 29? Of course if you count today I lost 21 but today is weird and high (easier to lose if you start on a high I guess so not all bad!) I need to take measurements to see where I'm at and where I will go :)

I planned on starting exercise this morning but I was woken up at 12:30 and it took me 2 hours and a Tylenol PM to fall back asleep, thus I didn't wake up until 7, too late to go in the morning (kids) maybe I will get to it later today but I wont feel bad if I don't!

So here is to today and I
thinner body just in time for the holidays which again is good & bad!

Lo and Behold....


This phase 3 really sucks. I mean it's summer with BBQ's and ice cream. Kids are home all day long with their food needs and brownie treats. Lately the household (and my) treat has been peanut butter M&M's, not quite so healthy. I have been grateful that my weight has not really fluctuated that much over the past 5 weeks. It makes me wonder if the whole thing about HCG "resetting" your metabolism might be kind of true. These is only so much I believe about a diet and this was something I did not really believe in. Anyhow, I got on the scale yesterday and lo and behold...249! I have actually got under 250 something that I was never able to do in phase 2. I am actually a bit excited to start phase 2 again next week. I hope that again I can lose another 25-30 lbs.

So it's been a while.....


Well I haven't been weighing myself everyday like I am supposed to, about every three days or so and for the most part I have been at 253 which I am perfectly happy with. Of course when I went to the doctor I was about 5 lbs more than my home scale. I like when I went to the hospital for my endometrial ablation, there when I was weighed it was in kilograms and I weighed only 117, I like that. It's like British stones, I weigh 17 stone, that is awesome here in the US when no one knows what that means (a stone= 14 lbs).

Anyhow, today when I weighed myself I was back to my all time low, 250. It might only last for a day but I am totally happy with that! Especially when my husband says to me yesterday, "so you quit your stupid diet now?" Nice support.....

I have noticed that when crap is around the house I will eat it. I make a point of not buying it so it is not in the house. If there were M&M's here, I would eat them. Same with Teddy Grahams, Love those but I would eat the whole box. I do buy sugar free Popsicles and Quaker Rice snacks for "healthier treats".

Day 50, 256 arughhhh!





Oh I HATE this next portion of this diet. This is SO hard. I am supposed to be eating like an Atkins diet which means basically no carbs. Well, I had a mini holiday with my sisters during which I ate half a bag of animal crackers, Pizza Hut pan pizza, a Blommin'Onion & ribs from Outback.


I then went to a family party during which I ate a sandwich and yes, about 4 chocolate chip cookies. THEN I basically had a breakdown yesterday and ate eggs & hash browns, a million dumps (chocolate no-bake oatmeal cookies) then to top it all off a Fat Boy ice cream. I have been having my period & got sunburned so I am hoping my weight was high because of that as I was +9 (arughhhhh) today I weighed myself and was at 256 so I was down again but still +6 from my lowest, although I only ever weighed 250 for one day. I have stayed around 252/253 for a long while, until now of course.

Well today is another day and yes, I do plan on staying away from treats for sure as those are almost always my downfall.

I can't wait to get back on the HCG, real or psychological it totally helps!

Up 2, WTF? 252 day 38


Actually I think it might be EVIL Aunt Flo which should be arriving any day now. I have being up even if I know it is water weight. Pisses me right off! I only have two days left of the protocol too! I really wanted to be down but I also realize that that might be impossible with Aunt Flo's pending arrival....Darn pissy

Day 37, 250!!!

Down a pound again, Yahoo~ I can't wait for one more pound then I'l be in the 40's. Still I have 13 lbs to be under (by one pound) my pre-pregnancy weight and 50 more to be under my all time (since babies) weight of 201 (2004). This is exciting though as I have actually lost weight and feel good about doing what I am doing. I am a bit worried about going off the Hcg and moving to the Atkins diet for a month. I hope I can still lose weight even if it is just a little.
