New Approach, Same Goal

Losing weight is never easy and you should never enter any diet thinking it's going to be easy. It's hard, hard work and it needs to be taken seriously. That's where my problem lies. I give up too easily and give in to my weaknesses. I've decided to take a new approach to see if I can finally take the weight off and keep it off!
My hairdresser started the hcg diet earlier this year and she looks absolutely amazing! During my time in her chair, we'd talk about how it works, what it does, how she feels, etc. I visited her earlier this month and, once again, we were talking about it. Before my last visit, I never considered using the hcg diet because I didn't feel like it was a healthy option. But, something was different during this visit.

When I got home that afternoon, I talked with my husband about it. Have I mentioned lately just how fortunate I am to have a husband who supports me no matter what I decide to do? I'm one lucky girl! Anyway, my husband's response was "why not" so I got online and ordered the hcg pellets.

The pellets arrived via USPS yesterday and I was so excited. My plan was to start taking them today but my scale needed new batteries. My husband, the wonderful man he is, went to the store to get me batteries so I wouldn't have any more delays. So, I've decided that I'm going to start it tomorrow.

I spend my Saturday night reading the PDFs that were provided about the program (2 of them I couldn't get until after I purchased the pellets). I must admit that I'm a little scared about this. I can have coffee but I can't use non-dairy creamer and I'm only allowed 1 Tbsp of milk per day. I cannot drink my coffee black, which means coffee will be off limits for me after Tuesday.

So, there's my new approach to the same goal. Here's hoping it works and I can keep it off! I'm going to do my best to post frequently during this time so I can document my progress. Happy reading!
