HCG Diet

So today has been a day filled with talk of weight loss. At work, after work. My co-worker is also starting the HCG diet so when I got home I decided to do some more research and was seriously considering trying it. Through my research I found out that the store bought stuff is not actually the true hCG hormone but just a placebo. The true stuff is hundreds of dollars and you need an Rx to get it. Scratch that out of the question, I don't even have insurance! Told my other friend about it who has been on the hcg for a while and I believe she is going to try to get that Rx. Would feel bad if she continued to waste her money. Hopefully she still keeps up the good work though.

So today I started my 1000 calorie diet. Most things say for my weight and height I need 2500 calories a day, but I don't see how I could lose weight with that and I don't even eat close to 2500 calories in a day anyways! I made my own lunch and brought it to work, which is ironically Subway (we have an issue there that makes me not want to eat there, that's another story for another post though). I haven't felt like I am starving myself, I've been eating throughout the day nibbling on carrots. But my stomach seems to be in a constant hunger. Just need to get over this hump and continue on!


On the plus side I have lost 2 pounds and am back down to 250lbs. A while ago I got to 248 but then went back up to 256 a day later due to lord knows why. So hopefully it continues to go down this way! I WILL PREVAIL!

A nice sleep

So day 2 of this blog. Most I've ever done for a blog before.
After stating last night that I need to change my sleeping habits, it happened involuntarily! 11:30pm I was out like a light and woke up this morning feeling awake...at least more awake than normal.

I've been trying to find some boosters that would help me and it is difficult to find. A friend of mine is doing the hgc or whatever diet and she has already lost a bit of weight, which makes me jealous. It's expensive to do though but we'll see. I'll wait until next paycheck before I really decide to spend the $40 or not on it. Also the fact my boyfriend would not be happy one bit if he found out. He just doesn't understand my situation though. He can eat like a horse and still loose weight, I have been battling my weight my whole life. I always tried to natural method, eating healthy and working out but nothing works.
Ugh we'll see.
Off to work out now. Cheer me on!

Never too late.

I hadn't thought about starting a blog to help me with my weight loss until I came across a friend of mine who had. It seemed like a great way to help me motivate myself, knowing that I have to come back here every day and tell whoever may read this what I did good and what I didn't do so well on. So here it is!

I have been battling with my weight my whole life. Never happy with myself. I would always tell myself "well I'll never reach this weight". Then I would. My main thing was that I would never weigh over 250lbs. I always thought I'd starve myself and go through drastic measures if I did. Well I'm weighing in at 252lbs, and that is after losing 8 pounds since Christmas. Have I gone through drastic measures? No. I couldn't do that because in a weird since..I do respect my body too much to do that.

Christmas came and my mom got me a Kinect game system and I began to work out that way and started to eat healthier while everyone else was waiting for the new years to start. This isn't a resolution, this is a way of life for me now. It needs to be in order for me to HAVE a life. I was doing really well but these last couple weeks it hasn't been doing great. I was starting to love to work out evey day...now it seems that when I get home from work I'm just too tired.  So that needs to change to. Regardless of tired or not, I will work out right when I come home from work. Then if I'm tired I'll have the rest of the night to relax/sleep. But it also means I need to change my sleeping habits and go to sleep before midnight instead of after.

So we'll see how that goes.
