Hello again! Still going strong.. did take the weekend off.. I admit it. but still at .8 average loss per day since i post load vlcd#1.
I took measurements today after work just to see where I stand
Weight: 177.2 ..... 166.6
Measurments..
Waist: 32 ... 31
Bust: 41 .... 39
Hip: 42 .... 41
Left Upper Arm: 13 ... 12.5
Thigh: 25 .... 24
Calf: 15.5 .... 15
I've lost 6 inches in 16 days.. not bad I guess. and I have to admit to not being totally perfect the entire time.
Sizes.. I am officially an Ann Taylor size 10, I got one new pair of black pants for work, I hate how they fit... but promised to hold out before I buy another pair until i'm an 8. I did buy Express dress pants at TJ MAxx on sale last week $10/pair.. size 10 and they fit.. not pretty but they fit.. they are flat front side zip kinda tight. I will wear them on Monday! Must hem them this weekend. And I can wear the 36DD Victoria Secret Bra (body by victoria lightly lined) it fits perfectly.. but the other style (with the formed cup) the band (36 part) is just toooooo big. My girls want to fall out the bottom. Anywho.. again look out 34dd that's the next step for me.
GOALS: here is my out of this world goal...
11/1 ... da da duh da... 129lbs yes you heard me right. I'm working on loosing 36lbs in 37 days.
I will be changing over to sublingual HCG on 10/2
in order to stay on protocol longer than 43days.
Ok i know my goal is NOT realistic.. realistic for me is 29lbs.. which I'd be so pleased with.. 138ish would be awesome. On 11/1 we are going away for the night and I will be taking the day off.. I know I will have a tempoary stall and that's okay..
Long term final goal, I haven't the foggiest. Anywhere under 130... I will keep pushing on until my body stops. I'm thinking around 120... but if god willing I'll go down to 110 (anything smaller and ouch! too skinny!)

My Journey!
Welcome to my HcG Protocol Journey! I am very excited to share the part of my life with you, feel free to email me with any questions, comments or advice.
After reading Kevin Trudeau's "The Weightloss Cure" I began researching Dr. Simeon's Weightloss Protcol and after months of contemplation, here I am! I waited until the time that I felt most able to devote myself 100% to the protcol and I hope to stay with it for 45 days.
I have struggled with my weight since 1998 (junior year in college) fluxuating from 140 to 200 several times. I found great success with dropping pounds with Atkins but never could maintain. My excitement with this protcol is simply the thought of fixing my broken Hypothalamus, resetting it to that of a normal person, who can easily maintain their weight at their heathy set-point - ideally lower than where I am now!
Since the first of this (2008) year I have lost 30 pounds by making small changes: focusing on natural/orgainc food choices and limiting my overall food consumption, but stilll eating and drinking what ever I want on the weekends.. But it is still not a long term solution; whenever I would eat too much or too fatty or too carby or too processed foods I would gain or stall that week... I monitored my food compulsively Monday-Friday to allow me flexability on the weekends..
I know there is no quick fix or magic pill to make us all skinny.. and I'm not looking for one.. but I just need some help getting my body back where it was.. I remember years ago ages 15-20 eating what I wanted, not being obessed with food, and maintaining a healthy weight. I ate lots of veggies, I ate out, I didn't get structured exercise, but my weight remained steady. After researching this protocol, I realize that I don't have to attribute those luxuries to being young. I know that I messed up my metabloism and hypothalamus in college, going from balanced meals to fast food and beer.. inadequate sleep and excess stress all are responsible for the mess i am in now!
So my journey begins.. wish me luck! I am very excited (but a little hungry right now - typing this during VLCD1) Check back for more updates......

Hey! Thank you so much for doing this blog! There is a lot out there online about HCG weight loss, but it is so technical and hard to read that your blog has been a breath of fresh air!
How are you doing now? I'm the same age as you with more to lose, but I'm on load day #1 and a little nervous. It really helps so read what you've gone through.
Anxiously looking for an update, if you are up for it =)
I just started my HCG 8 days ago. I am curious how you are doing now. Check out my blog at www.weightlossupsanddowns.blogspot.com
Took me time to read all the comments, but I really love the article. It proved to be very helpful to me and I am sure to all the commenters here! It’s always nice when you can not only be informed, but also engaged! I’m sure you had joy writing this article.hcg
