Sorry & hCG Diet Loss Update!

Well I've not be tending my blog because I've been building my site to go with my blog and frankly I'm failing! SO I will devote my entire 5 days to doing this new tutorial on building and watching the videos as I go to get it done. I was reading a book things were not going smoothly to say the least!

Okay, on the hcg diet I've not lost 17 lbs. Not bad, not the greats but not bad because that is 17 lbs less then before, 17 lbs of fat I don't have and 17 lbs off my joints!

Yes you have to look at things another way sometimes and I choose to celebrate every ounce of loss on the hcg diet protocol as a victory!! Why? Well being on the hcg diet isn't easy, eating hcg food isn't always the most abundant and if I'm going to have to do this diet again I'm not going to take it for granted.

Now for those just reading my blog, I want to say, the hcg diet didn't fail me. I stopped exercising and didn't take the 5 lbs gain or the 10 lbs gain that Pounds and Inches warns you about. That was my fault not the hcg diets fault. I also allowed myself to believe because my clothes were still fitting nicely and wasn't showing the gain, as it did take several months to really start to show up after I stopped exercising and wasn't actively dieting, that I was still OK. I wasn't.

I kept my weight off for 18 months after hCG. My record is 6 years on Low Carb Atkins style but, and I firmly believe this, my age (over 40) and my thyroid issues, I must exercise to be successful long term.

I'd say that the gain after exercising took about 4-6 months but again, I was eating whatever I wanted, not really watching that and not even walking!!

Lesson learned the hard way and I will not allow it to happen again. Can't afford to mentally, physically or health wise.

I LOVED the skinny me on hCG and I must admit I was skinnier on hCG then I was on low carb. Don't get me wrong I love low carb eating (I am not big on veggies, just don't like a lot of them, YMMV), but the hCG diet the fat loss was so much more and faster.

Okay enough of my personal sob story!! Post some happy news!
