First Month Down!

So official weight after one month 363.2 -36.8 pounds for the month!  I didnt reach my goal this week I only lost 3 pounds. Kinda a bummer! I am not sure what is going on but I really hope the weight picks back up soon. I think I will add light excercise in and order some Ketone strips to make sure I am burning fat. OK GOAL for Next Month- 40 pounds- I will do a better job of eating all the food I am supposed to eat and not missing meals, I am also going to go back on the b12 shots -Wish me luck!

Week 3! And another one bites the Dust

Okay week three is over and officially 32.6 pounds down. This has been an awkward week,  My monthly visitor has been here for a week and half (not normal) and I have made more of an effort to eat the required amount of food as I have not been eating enough. Also this was by far the easiest week to resist temptation so I was hoping for a bigger loss total for this week 8.6. I am hoping that it is my period messing things up and that it goes away immed.!!!!  I am seriously thinking about getting B12-w/lipo shots to help with energy level and with liver production. I plan on staying on drops and not taking a break and I think processing that much fat and toxins can be taxing on the liver so I think those shots will help! But they are a bit pricey!

I feel like I have complete tunnel vision right now and for the first time feel without a doubt that I am going to be successful on this journey. I think by September I will have seen a significant weight loss and so we decided to go on our first family vacation to Disney in October - I am excited to plan this and not have to say oh I will do it when I lose weight because I know in September I will have lost it!

End of Week Two!

OK so week two was a little harder resisting temptation so a couple jelly beans and a couple deviled eggs and only 10 pounds down, wait a minute did I just say only WTH is wrong with me???  Yesterday I weighed in down 24 pounds today officially 25 pounds. Being my size its hard to see that loss physically but I tried on a pari of bermuda shorts I bought three weeks ago and could not button and today I am wearing them to film with Valeria Hoff!  Another Victory! 
It is that time of the month for me which could be (from what I am reading) contributing to the lower weight loss as well so hopefully it will pick back up this week! I am going to aim for 10 pounds this week.
Per my moms advice I am portioning my food and I have it all put into baggies and tupperware it has helped sooooo much already!

The Small Victories!

So I went for my first weigh in after being on the HcG diet for one week and I lost 14.6 pds (oh yes I am counting the .6!) I told myself last night anything over 7 I would be very satisfied with. I have taken my last B12 shot  (for now) so I am not sure how much of the shot contributed to it. 
I have to say that I have not felt hungry all week and the only side effects were a couple of minor headaches that Advil took care of - the headaches could be from the lack of soda as well. This diet is very limiting but I feel in my heart that it is going to be successful for me. I know that if I can do this I can transition when I am not doing this diet to a healthy style of eating and be able to maintain control. 

The hardest thing about this week was at times coming to terms with (although I have said it before) the fact that I am clearly addicted to food. I felt when I was around sweets or just yummy delicious food (thanks JOJO) that my whole mind and body was attracted to it and had a clear desire for it. And was getting irritable not getting it.  I am proud that this week has been a major victory both in my weight that I have lost but maybe more importantly the choices I have been able to make : picking up fast food for Wes and not getting something for myself and eating it on the car ride home (because no one would know- which yes I admit I have done all to often!) Staying on the diet when I left my food at my house when staying at my moms- normally I would have packed it in and said oh I'll just start again on Monday. 

To Quote my Mom  "It took me Thirty year to put on the weight" and it will be a process getting it off but I believe that if I can follow this diet I will succeed and the daunting task in front of me that is the amount I need to lose might seem alittle more doable!!
