VLCD Day 2

Today was MUCH better than yesterday! Down 4.6 lbs as my first official weigh in!!!! I did learn that I was taking I WAY too much liquid. Got a new dropper so all it right with the world, except my bottle is almost 1/2 empty. : ( Good news is my mom sent 2 bottles so I can make it through this round no matter what. 1/2 mL is all you need 3 times a day! I am an idiot.

Anyways, was going through the food chart in the book (HCG weight loss cure guide by Linda Prinster) and it says I can have cottage cheese... what do I substitute that for?? Meat, veggie, fruit or melba toast?? Confused! Ugh. I don't understand I guess.

Hopefully I will lose a bunch more weight on the scale tomorrow.

It's so funny, all I can think about is food but yet Im really not that hungry. I have only eaten one of my meals and nibbled on my toast and a few bites of chicken which are my dinner meal. I don't really have an appetite until my body tells me I absouletely need food. Kinda a nice feeling but really hard cuz I always just snacked throughout the day.

Until tomorrow...

VLCD Day 1

This morning I felt good. Ate my food and headed to school. Started feeling sick towards the end of class and ran to the bathroom to throw up but no such luck. Took home an apple from school to eat on the ride home. Actually had to pull off the freeway to throw up while driving home. No bueno. Ate the rest of the apple after that. Trying to eat the chicken I had portioned out but my stomach feels really bad. This is going to be really tough. But Im going to do it. Damnit! I need to lose weight!!! So frustrating. Hoping tomorrow will be a better day.

Gained a total of .8 lbs on my loading days... that is not that good and maybe that is why I am having a hard time... who knows.

Sunday August 29th

So, I lost .4 lbs this morning... after all the stuff I ate. Geez! At least I know the drops are working cuz if I can eat all that crap and still lose weight I can only imagine how much I will lose while eating healthy stuff!

Started making my meals for the week. Gonna have to read the back of the book in the calorie counting section so I can learn all the different things I can eat and not just go off the recipes I found online. Make my own stuff up. : )

I am totally ready to start this tomorrow morning. I am ready to get my sexy back! Here goes nothin!

So, I started loading today. I have taken the drops twice so far today. They tingle/burn under my tongue until the 2 mintues are up and I swallow the liquid. My stomach definitely felt different (inside) than it has so I can tell the drops are going to work well for me! I bought food and baggies and brown paper bags so I can grab and go my food for the next week. It's all starting to become real now. I feel completely ready and it feels right, if that makes sense??

I dunno if I am loading right... I am just eating normal stuff but I did buy those Hostess cupcakes that I love. Tomorrow I would like to eat at the Olive Garden for my last ha-raw (spelling)... but feel uneasy about dining alone and I dunno if I can really afford it. My dad and I saw Avatar for the 3rd time tonight (way better with the extra footage... if that is even possible!) so I did have a little soda and some popcorn with a ton of butter. I keep thinking that I don't really need to load cuz I have more than enough fat stored in my body already! Lol!!

Cheers!

Ok, I have never written a blog before.

I am starting the HCG diet tomorrow. Or the "loading" days anyways. I know I will be good at those! I have my drops and I have my book. I am going to take my measurements tonight and my "before" pics since I have to work way early in the morning tomorrow. I am nervous and excited. I know as long as I can pre-make my meals for the week I will be able to stick with it and just grab-and-go my meals. My schedule is so hectic that making things on a daily basis is out of the question. I have about 3 months before Christmas and I want to lose as much weight as possible before I fly back home to Idaho for the holidays. I would love to lose 50-60 lbs by that time and 100 lbs by the end of February at which time I will be a bridesmaid in my friends wedding! Those would be my ultimate goals!

My dieting moto: I may want candy and sugar and burgers, but I want to be hot and sexy MORE!

Tomorrow starts day 1...
