Today is the first day that I have started the HCG, I have done tons of reading and have talked to my OB/GYN as well as my doctor about doing this. I am very nervous about doing this as I work at one of the unhealthest offices out there, their is always chocolate, someone going to lunch and always something to celebrate, everyone has gained at least 20 lbs from working there. I am hoping I have the will power and be able to stay on this without a lot of trouble. I am starting this week as it is Spring Break and I only have to be in the office for 2 days I am hoping when I go back (5 days off) that I will have this under control and will know what I am doing. It took me about 40 minutes to mix the HCG as I was scared to do it wrong, I followed the directions, re-read them and then re-read again. I am hoping I did it right. I thought I would be glad to eat whatever I wanted today but I can't get to thrilled with eating anything, I have gotten used to salad for lunch so when lunch time came I was looking for it, instead I had a big mac and fries and feel sick. I have also had Easter candy with the kids. I took my measurments and they are:
Weight 354.4
Neck 16
Upper Bust 52
Middle Bust 55
Lower Bust 49
Waist 52
Hips 68 3/4
C-Section Line 59
Thigh 40
Knee 20 3/4
Ankle 11
Upper arm 22
Elbow12 1/2
Wrist 7 1/2
I have taken some pictures as well and will post them each Sunday so I can see if there is a difference. I am so excited to begin but also scared. I am hoping I can do this and that I will be succesful in doing this. I am most worried about giving up Diet Coke I love it and have at least 64 oz a day I am going to have to drink water and tea, I am not sure I like water or tea so this will be the biggest challenge.
Well that is all I have to say for today, wish me luck tomorrow is a new day.

Beth,
ReplyDeleteI saw your post on my blog a few days ago but just now realized that you also have a blog! I am interested to know how your first day of the diet went... is it today or was it yesterday?
I was also scared to death when mixing my HCG that I was going to do it wrong. Good to know I'm not the only one.
You CAN do this! The fact that you are willing to try such a drastic step toward health is huge! Please keep updating and I will be following your blog! :)

ps I am also a HUGE Diet Coke fan. I have found that putting flavored Stevia in my water really makes it easier to get down, and I get my "sweet fix". At this point I am not even missing the Diet Coke (day 16 of the diet). Hope that helps!
