Day 9 - 218 lbs - Down 7

I have been on the VLCD for 9 days and have lost 7 pounds. All last week, I ate chicken with either asparagus or salad. The Yerba Mate tea is a life saver at breakfast. It really gets me going - I think that I am becoming addicted. I have purchased a new type of Splenda to go with the tea. Each little packet has one gram of fiber. It has really helped with keeping me regular. I love that stuff!

Starting Again!

I am at a place where I am finally able to begin the HCG regimen again (yea). As you can tell from my last blog, I took the summer off to play with my family in California. Once home, several stressful things happened to prevent me from staying with the regimen. I have finally made a commitment to start the protocol and stick with it. With everything that has been going on, I did not watch what I was eating at all. When I began my load on Saturday, I weighed in at 223 and went up 2 pounds during the load period. Today (day 2 of VLCD) I weighed in at 222 pounds.

Thanks to everyone for the messages of encouragement these past few months. I appreciate your support. Keep checking back for updates!

Life Happening

It seems like when I a ready to get serious with my diet, life happens. Wednesday, I went to the dentist for an emergency root canal. I had been doing so well on my diet but after coming home and sleeping off the pain, I couldn't find anything soft to eat. I ended up eating a peanut butter sandwich and as they say things went downhill from there. Things are so hectic here. I am trying to get ready for a six week trip to California. I don't know if I should continue the injections and try to be good on vacation or just wait until we get back from California. Does anyone out there have any suggestions? Help!

Computer has been fixed. The Dell man came by yesterday and put an new modem card in my computer so now I can once again go online. Since my last post, I have been administering then injections but haven't been very faithful with the diet. There have been many celebrations in my life in the last week. End of school staff luncheon, two retirement parties and a graduation party. I am beginning the diet in earnest today and hope to see big losses in the near future.

Back on Track

Well, after almost a month of being off track, I have begun my injections again. Things got very hectic for me at work and at home and I just couldn't seem to stay focused. I began day one loading today with a new attitude and outlook. I am determined to make this work for me. I have made a mental commitment to myself that I will publish every evening to help keep myself true! Once again, wish me luck.

Day 8 VLCD

Today is day 8 of VLCD and I am down 10.2 pounds. In case you didn't get this from my previous blogs - I love this stuff :)

Question for anyone out there reading this - Has anyone done the short rounds or are the long rounds better? I would really like to do the short rounds if they actually work as well as the long round. I can't find anything in CC's book about the shorter rounds, but the 10 days off sounds more manageable to me than the six weeks that are suggested with the longer rounds. I am really worried about gaining weight if I am off of the injections for six full weeks. Any advice?? Help!!
