Day 60:1

Today is the last day of my drops.  I have done three bottles, and now I feel ready to continue with just the diet. 

As of today, I have accomplished 40 lbs of weight loss!!!!!  I am happy with the result but know I need at least another 30 to go...minimum!!!! 

I will keep a weekly update on my progress off the drops...this is a crucial part of the diet is to maintain or keep losing without the drops but with the diet. 

I am also proud of the gals at work who are doing this diet...they are reaching their goals too!

DAY 50:1

well im down 2 more pounds  and another half inch on the belly...

I think I have levelled out and need to switch up some recipes.  Maybe Im eating over the calorie limit?  I don't know.  but I will take another 2 lbs over nothing or gaining...  =)

Day 44:1

Happy belated Thanksgiving!  It was a "filling" weekend....I didn't over eat, but I did eat a lot of the wrong foods for this diet.  I have a weakness for stuffing!  so Friday ended off with a 'healthy pizza' no cheese, lots of veggies! Saturday I had chinese food, not much but enough to feel yucky after...too much oil?  Sunday a hotdog from Ikea for dinner, and Monday a turkey feast!  My lunches consisted of my diet foods.

I think i gained 1 lb, but I am not sure.  I'll update my measurements as well today, yesterday I couldn't find my measuring tape so I had to measure this morning.

I think I am done this kind of gorging until christmas...it sure didnt feel good after wards, but I guess stepping off the plan for a couple of days shows how grossly you feel after eating that kind of food. Moderation is the key, and not all in one weekend.


The weight isn't dropping off as fast now ... maybe I have reached a plateau.

Day 36:1

Down another 4 or 5 lbs.  I should have gotten a digital scale, these other ones are so inacurate.  so I say 4 or 5 lbs because it varied with each try.  Measurements stayed the same, thats ok it means I probably lost somewhere Im not measuring...a chin maybe?  lol

I enjoyed a steak tonight, I am not a big steak fan but did it ever taste good!

This morning I was craving toast with peanut butter.  I still miss my breakfast, if thats the only bad thing about this diet, then I'll survive.  =)

Exercise vs. Activity

I don't know what the difference would be between actual exercise or extreme gardening.  For 3 days I have been doing a fall clean up of the front yard, splitting and moving around my perennials...  My legs feel like I have done squats for 3 days.  Hope for some good weighloss this week...including inches.

2 more days until weigh in.

A new week

33 days, still feeling great!  i can really feel a difference in my wasteline.  still continuing with the diet, no problems there.  I won't bore you with the meals anymore...they are just continuing on the same manner.  going to see about some new recipes this week...chili perhaps? nom nom nom

i'll keep in touch every couple of days.  would love to hear if any of you have started or thinking about starting the drops, what your experiences are and your achievments while on this plan. leave a comment on any of the posts.

ps...i found some fat free/sugar free ice cream at Safeway  it is a dairy, but when you have a craving...how much safer can this be?  I only got the vanilla, i wont indulge too much with the chocolates and caramels.  *slurp*

Day 31:1

I have posted some links to your right on what Dr. Oz had to say with other professionals about HCG.

I, myself, have not had any side effects from using the drops...up to now I have lost 30 lbs and feel great!  Yes I have added some extra food to my plan occasionally but didn't over do it.  Yes I beleive 500 calories a day is not healthy, but you have to eat foods that will give you your vitamins & minerals.  I don't believe in restricting yourself from your favorite foods, but I do believe to only eat them in moderation and if this plan helps me with controlled portions then that is what my goal is!  Not only will I lose weight and hopefully keep from being a diabetic, I will relearn about portion control.

Enjoy the video clips...if you decide to go on the drops please make sure you are not buying them because they are the cheapest online!  I provided the link to where my drops were ordered that are working for me.  I don't make anything off the sales, i wanted to share what I know works.
