I'm on Day 12!
Alright...in a lot of the diet reviews I read about the HCG diet it would mention that you just need to stay home. This part of the diet reviews is absolutely true. You'll know why by the end of today's article. It's day 12 for me on my HCG diet. Just as a recap in case you're just joining in...I chose to do the 25 day homeopathic HCG diet. I'm doing it through HCG Diet Direct. I bullied a friend into being my HCG diet buddy. Her name's Lisa. And we've got a side bet to see who can lose the most weight. I want to win.
But I'm starting to doubt myself. I just might not win this one. But then I've lost a substantial amount of weight so I'm happy with that. I just need to pay attention and avoid the obvious pit falls!
Today I weighed myself. I took my HCG as necessary for breakfast and lunch and then I took my third dose in the evening. I've been noting my daily weight down as suggested on the pad of paper by my bed. I've only forgotten once so far and I think that is a fabulous track record. Today my weight went down one pound; which is great! I'm at 160 pounds officially. That makes 11 pounds of weight loss within 12 days of HCG dieting. According to the diet reviews I'm right on track to meet the weight loss averages.
I thought when I started that the weight coming off would be inspirational and make it easy for me to stick to the diet; even though I read several diet reviews that said they loved the weight loss, but still had a hard time sticking to the strict guidelines. And it's true. It's still not easy. But I'm just going to keep a running list of the places and activities that I just have GOT to avoid while I'm on the low calorie diet. One for sure "no admittance while on 500 calorie diet" area is the Mall's food court. I was absurd to imagine that would work out. It didn't. And it won't; ever.
The next place I now know I should NEVER enter while on a low calorie diet is a family party. My sweet niece's birthday party was today. They were serving lunch so I didn't eat before I left. Long story short...lunch was delayed; it because dinner. I was absolutely starving.
That in itself is a problem. But the other problem was that they barbequed sausage and turkey legs (neither of which are okay for the HCG diet). They also had potato salad (a big unh-uh) and Caesar Salad (can there BE a more fattening green salad) and cake. I don't know why I assumed they'd have some grilled chicken. So long story short. I had a turkey leg. I had some potato salad. And I had some Caesar Salad. I did stay away from the cake. But that's such a small victory in comparison to the other concessions I made. I'm dreading getting on the scale tomorrow. I do not want to go up. I want to lose more weight than Lisa so she has to buy me a pair of jeans...I feel like I should get online and add to the number of diet reviews that points out this particular issue. But I guess I'll wait until the diet is complete so I can leave a review with all information disclosed at once. - 17273
