8- 150.5 @12:20 pm and 150 @ 545 pm
9- 149.5@ 2 pm- i believe I cheated a little this day too and had tokyo diner with my boyfriend. Tried to stay away from oils..Had lobster, shrimp, and chicken, no rice, only salad, no soup.. and water with lemon. The cook didn't get that I couldnt have any oils or sauces, so he smothered all my food in soy sauce, ugh. I reluctantly ate, because everyone was staring and it was akward.. Never doing that again!
10- 149.5 @ 1230 pm phew no gain, but no loss :/ sigh
11- 148.5 woohoo! back to the lb a day.. I like this feeling
12- 147.5 yea yea yea ( and I cheated again last night and this morning with some skin white milk and peanut butter and a tiny bit of chocolate..)
13- I was so worried to weigh in .. but I took my HCG at 12ish, tried to sleep, and woke up with this huge amount of energy and weighed in at 1:00 pm at... dun dun dun
146.5! Woohoo! Back to what I was end of July for my 2 yr anniversary.. yea yea yea! :) Target goal by birthday is 140 (high school weight) and by summer 130, but man 125 would be freaking awesome! :) I think the lowest I ever was on this scale was 118 (hyperthyroid incident) and highest was 158, yack! thats 40 lbs! waaaaa. I was NOT healthy at 118, though. No muscle or anything.. Gross! I'll keep ya posted. Currently just had an apple and going to drink some water, maybe go on a walk.. Do some homework.. Tonight having study date with the boyfriend and making lobster and steak romantic dinner :) hehe fun fun!

HCG Days -1 Through 4

Okay, so I have tried everything, from lets see..exercising 1-3 hours a day and practically starving myself to the P90x program, turbo jam, and assistance from personal trainers, but yep..nothing seems to work. It may take, oh let's say 3 months to lose 10 lbs (and gain some muscle), but less than 2 weeks to put it back on! (Bummer!) So I have done a ton of research (I would say at least over 100 hours) on this new HCG thing and spoke to several people and a doctor, and well.. I am willing to give it a try. Now I know this whole starvation mode thing may be true for some people, but I think I should know the difference, considering I have tried this myself. In all, if it doesn't work then at least I am training my body to eat healthy foods and eliminating all that nonprocessed crap.. I just want to look good for my birthday in 5 weeks! :) Okay so realistic, I know..I would love to be 140 by my birthday.. back to the old high school weight.. I would be happy at 144/145, though, fingers crossed! :)

Anywhoo, if any of you are interested, just look up the protocol for HCG which Dr. Simeones has called "Pounds and Inches." (okay so here is a general outline:)

1. 100 grams of veal, beef, chicken breast, fresh white fish, lobster, crab, or shrimp. All visible fat must be carefully removed before cooking, and the meat must be weighed raw. It must be boiled or grilled without additional fat. Salmon, eel, tuna, herring, dried or pickled fish are not allowed. The chicken breast must be removed from the bird. 2. One type of vegetable only to be chosen from the following: spinach, chard, chicory, beet-greens, green salad, tomatoes, celery, fennel, onions, red radishes, cucumbers, asparagus, cabbage. 3. One breadstick (grissino) or one Melba toast. 4. An apple, orange, or a handful of strawberries or one-half grapefruit.

**Now, I am not going to start this blog to praise HCG, because for what it's worth I am only on day 5 and am unsure of my overall feeling..We will see at day 42! My current mood, though, (in case you are wondering) is SUPER STOKED! Ill tell you why..

Day -1 (This is just because I started "loading" phase, which means putting all the crap in your mouth that is high in fat that you can find in order to prepare the body for the low calorie diet in the upcoming 5 weeks..) Okay so weight was 153 at this point

Day 0- 155 ack! So I gained 2 lbs..impossible! well, not really. For me, all that starchy food really adds up..plus some is water weight

Day 1- The gorge! Okay so I went out to eat today and enjoyed myself! Lots of peanut butter and some chocolate as well, yummy! I felt guilty, but I tried to load up because the more you do, the faster it comes off! Okay so still 155 at this point.

Day 2- The 2nd day of gorging! So I am up 3 lbs yack! 158! Tear.. oh well lets see if this comes off

Day 3- Surprisingly my morning weight was uhm 157? I lost a lb from gorge day? Odd isn't it..
So today for breakfast I had lots of water. For lunch, cabbage and some shrimp (which were seasoned and steamed in lemon juice yummy).. For snack, an apple during school. Then for dinner, steak wrapped in lettuce yummy! Added some stevia and apple cider vinegar to my spring water and it tasted oh so yummy! Also had a piece of celery, 2 apple slices and some more cabbage in between. I didn't eat my orange so I figured a little more wouldnt help.. Went to gym for Zumba (but took it easy and just had fun seeing as cardio apparently hurts our weight loss) then came home showered, and off to the padres! Had a little bit of chocolate, peanut butter, and macaroni salad! AGGGG! And some diet green tea! Shoot! I was so nervous I would gain that I didnt sleep well and slept in til 11:15 am! But to my surprise...

Day 4: Weight 153.5! Woohoo! This is almost back to my negative day weight haha (And this is before I went to the bathroom, if you are following...haha) I am a happy camper. Phew! No more bad late night adventures for me! Just ate an apple and had some coffee and water...Will check in later!
