Monday kicked off my 800 calorie diet! I find the drops to be rough! They don't have a nice taste to them but really what that's good for you tastes all that good?? LOL :D I weighed myself and my starting weight was 181.2. This is exactly the weight I was when I started Weight Watchers in 2009. I have the same breakfast in the morning a half a grapefruit and a couple pieces of melba toast. I worked super hard on my water intake because well water isn't my favorite. I tried different water bottles all week until I settled on my large sipper from the hospital! Holds a little more than 30 ounces!
I have been rotating for lunch between chicken, steak and shrimp and then I alternate them for dinner as well. I accompany it with a half of a cucumber and either an orange or apple! Repeat for dinner. I have been playing around with seasonings and it's been quite the process. I will be experimenting more this weekend preparing for week 2!!
I am happy to say that this is day 5 on the diet and I am down 6lbs as of this morning! I am pleased as punch!
I will be honest the first night I had a strange dream about a giant brownie chasing me just screaming at me to eat him. I woke up worried that this might be really tough. But as the week has gone on I feel more in control. I feel prepared having my lunches all bagged up and proportioned out. I am ready to change this not so flattering body of mine! This is a photo from Christmas I usually enjoy photos from the shoulder up but here caught this belly of mine!
I will post a photo on my week 2 success and show you the beginning of the new me!!
Thanks for following along. If you are interested in the HCG diet or other products stay tuned I will be hosting a giveaway after my 30 day journey!!!
I did the hcg diet last year for about 6 weeks and I lost 17 lbs. I did cheat a little bit. I went to Vegas right after I finished and ended up gaining 10 lbs in 4 days. Whomp whomp, then I got pregnant like a week later. So a year later I'm about 6 lbs down from where I started. I don't know if Id do it again, it made me really cranky.
ReplyDeleteYeah my friends are scared of how I will be on this diet and on my period! I am down 7 lbs in 6 days and I feel pretty good. I am working on my cravings and just drinking lots of water. I know a ton of people who have done it and been successful just hoping after I can maintain!!!
