Day 25:3

We started the biggest loser at work 2 weeks ago. I have lost a total of 4.4 lbs in 2 weeks. I have been doing my hcg but haven't quite cut out the sugar or coffee cream in my coffee. It's hard to do and I love my coffee!!!!

I have been looking at what to change my diet with when I'm done the drops. I have decided to emit canned food due to the high boa levels that saturated the food inside. So much to learn about all these chemicals that are contaminating our food supply. Guess its time to get back into baking my treats which are way healthier than prepackaged goods.

Our society has become so dependent on crap quality food and fooled by "healthy" titles. You can't even trust that a fruit or vegetable will give you 100% of the nutrients they should because they are grown too fast and not able to soak up the natural sun and soil nutrients in the proper growing time. I wish I could garden all year long to make sure I'm getting 100% organic produce.

Now that I've ranted... I have to stick to the hcg and go for at least 5 lbs for next week. Going to cut the sugar down to 1tsp and possibly no cream. That should help a lot.

DAY 1:3

I'm back!  I really went by the wayside and fell off the wagon.  The holidays were really hard to keep on the healthy food.   I didnt stop at the holidays either.  I blame stress on my over eating, lots to stress about but nothing that cant be handled.  Round 2 I didnt do much in weight loss if any, but was proud to at least maintain my weight.  It was the last couple of months that I put on a few pounds.  Stress really does put weight on the middle! 

I have started another round of HCG.  At work we are doing a friendly challenge of the biggest loser.  We do our own thing for weight loss and a healthier lifestyle.  One person does the weigh in once a week and keeps everything confidential.  a chart is kept and once a week the percentage lost and amount of weight is recorded for all to see without the actual weight being announced.  We do this starting today until July and the winner is the one with the most weight lost at 3%.

I will keep my weekly accomplishments with the challenge posted here as I did before.  I am not going to give my weight to keep it private from coworkers who may read these posts that are in the challenge.  I will post inches lost to give an idea.

Day 20:2

I haven't been posting, my bad.  Just been busy and then too tired to put my thoughts into words.

I have been maintaining my weight and I am not too happy about the progress of losing it.  I have come to a theory a long time ago that in the winter no matter how hard you try with any diet or exersize it is impossible to lose a large amount of weight because you body naturally hold on to fat/calories in the winter months.  Does that make sense?  Hence the fact that most New Years Resolutions never work out because peeps get frustrated at not losing anything the first 3-4 months.  Thats my excuse and I'm using it!  LOL

I haven't been totally strict with my diet, but I'm not doing anything overboard either.  My metabolism may have levelled out from the previous drop session but who knows for sure.  I am going to start doing my Jillian Michaels Wii work out Monday morning now that I'm done my drops.  I only did the 21 day stretch this time, hope the exersize will kick some ass!  Spring and Summer is just around the corner!!!!

So my weight is at 180lbs.  I'm not going to stress about it, I feel good with the food I eat and feeling better is what its all about!  I am going to try and start eating more gluten free foods now

Day 5:2

Its Friday.  I had a vegetable thin crust (Dr. Oetker) pizza.  I needed some food in my tummy.  I dont think I was hungry though, I think my tummy is rumbling because I am getting the flu.  As long as I sit here on the couch I'm fine.

The diet is going well....I cannot give up my cream for coffee so I am carrying on using the fat free vanilla international delite.  i figure its better than real cream and sugar (for the diet).  This time around I cannot get into the taste of the Stevia drops....I don't know why, but it just doesnt sit right with my taste buds... I must have my coffee and enjoy it!!!!  lol

I am going to make my cabbage soup this weekend and a couple other meal ideas.

DAY 3:2

Its day 3 of the second round.  I weighed myself for the first time since Christmas and I gained about 5-6 lbs.  Its hard to say if its actual weight or just the usual fluctuation of water retention etc...  so i will just go with a cool 185lbs to start off round two. Not bad for all the naughty stuff that was eaten over the holidays.  Measurements were the same as when I finished the first round.

I can't wait to start feeling good again...I really let my diet go to shit during December. Thought the drops would give me strength to not eat chocolates and other yummy holiday treats...WRONG.  lol  Oh well.. I didnt gain my weight back , if anything, I learned that certain foods cause me irritablility for certain functions. 

I will start the weekly update thread of weigh in and measurements again HERE

Happy New Year!

Ok so I failed at my second attempt...stopped taking the drops and did the holiday munch fest! I don't feel the least bit guilty!  Ok..a little but I know I can get back on track and do this for another 40lbs!!!

I am not going to do a binge for 2 days... I think I have done enough over the last month.  I feel so bloated and gross and am ready to start feeling good again. Tomorrow I will start my hcg diet and stick to it 100% even better than the first time.  Some girls in the office are starting again or for the first time...its much easier with support.

I will keep all posted daily with the weekly updates on weight/inch loss.
