I forgot to post yesterday but I was up .4 but today I'm down 1 lb. Weight today is 196.8 total lost to date is 10 lbs.
I have eaten terribly today and I have the tummy ache to prove it. I don't know what exactly happened, well, yes I do know. I'm dealing with some medical issues. I went to see yet another specialist today and I was so dreading the trip and hate every second of the visit. Sad thing is the food did not taste as good as I thought it would and now I'm sick. Oh well, what is done is done.
I leave for my business conference Thursday. I'm taking my computer but I don't know whether or not I'll have the energy to post. Gotta go the potty is calling my name "Anna Belle come sit on me." Sorry, to graphic? Hope all of you are doing better than me.

HCG R1 D16 VLCD D13
You know you're on the VLCD when you start dreaming about food. No joke, two nights ago it was cake, strawberry cake with whipped icing. Last night, it was a sandwich, scrambled egg, cheese and mayo on untoasted whole wheat bread from Sneaky Pete's. Just keeping it real by sharing.
Weight wise I'm down .8 lb. Weight is 197.4. I so wanted that extra .2 lb so I would have one stinking lb off. I weighted three times silly me. My total to date is 9.4 lbs still over 1/2 lb a day so I need not be fussy.
I'm going out of state for a business conference this Thursday - Sunday. I'm wondering if I can travel with two injections or just skip them. I haven't taken any skip days, well, I guess forgetting the shot on the 4th day (first VLCD day) would be considered a skip day. I guess I'll just risk skipping a couple of days. I'll try my best to stay with the diet but will be limited to whatever I'm served. However, those things usually have buffets so surely I can make some good choices.
That's it for me today.

HCG R1 D15 VLCD D12
I'm posting early today because I may forget later. The weather has cooled so I'm going to spend time outdoors. I have a lot of errands to get accomplished this weekend.
Weight is down another .4 lb brings me to 198.2. Considering my tummy woes and slip on the diet, I'm happy I'm not showing a gain.
Also I took my two week measurements this morning. I've lost a total of 5.5 inches in just two weeks. Here is how it breaks down: 1 inch gone from my bust, 1 inch gone from my waist, .5 inch gone from my hips, 1 inch gone from my belly, 1.5 inches gone from my inner thigh (I measured the left one since I'm left handed), and .5 inch gone from my bicep (again my left one).
I can definitely tell a difference in my clothes. But the biggest surprise for me is that I can see a difference in places I don't measure. I see bones in my toes! They don't look quite as much like little sausages. Also my ankles look little. Can you tell I'm happy? I may have to do a little happy dance.

HCG R1 D14 VLCD D11
Weight down 1 lb this morning, weight 198.6
I'm not sure what happened today. I became very ill right after lunch today. I know this is gross but I need to know if you may have experienced anything similar. I thought I was going to throw up but it was the other end that got me. Not that I didn't need to go, if you know what I mean. Anyway, I was so weak and shaky when I got back to my office, I actually thought I might faint. One of my staff, gave me a pack of those peanut butter cracker things. She had eaten 1 but I ate the rest. After about an hour I was fine. I'm afraid the refrig. at work may not be keeping food cool enough. I really don't know. My food tasted o.k.
I'll just see what tomorrow's weigh in brings.

HCG R1 D13 VLCD D10
As expected my weight was up but only by .4 lb, weight is 199.6. On day 13 I've lost a total of 7.2 since the first injection. Not to great but I'm not going to let it get me down.
Today I ate earlier than usual but then didn't eat until I got home. I started reading when I came in and ate an apple around 5:30 p.m. I'm not hungry so I don't see the point of eating. It is the emotional (want to eat) craving to eat that gets to me. On the way home this afternoon, I wanted Subway. It was all I could do to talk myself into coming straight home.
Another busy day at work but it was a good day so I should not have wanted to turn to fast food. I think it is my missing bread. Real bread. I don't know what Melba toast is but it does not do the trick for me, neither does those long skinny cracker/breadstick things.
I'm glad to know that I'm not the only one that slips but keeps on going. Thanks for your support it helps more than I can say to know that I'm not alone on this journey.

HCG R1 D12 VLCD D9
Weight this morning was 199.2 down 1 lb. WooHoo under 200!!! However, that was this morning.
I succumbed to a Taco Bell chicken burrito and cinnamon twists. LORD it was sooooo goooood. In addition to work being very, very busy the building I work in is being roofed with a new metal roof. The roofers were working directly over by head all day. Over my head and right out side my window up and down their ladders and banging around drove me to distraction (actually right to Taco Bell). I have got to get a handle on emotional eating. I knew I had my dinner already planned for when I got home but I completely blew my own plans off in favor of a flour tortilla stuffed with yummy stuff. I knew I would be setting myself back and I didn't care at the time. I care now but the damage is done. Sad thing is I'm sitting here wanting to eat more. Not hungry just wanting to crunch and chew. Well no point in going on and on.
BTW some of those roofers are kinda cute. Too young for me but I can look. HA!

HCG R1 D11 VLCD D8
Weight was down 1.4 lb this morning to 200.2. Tomorrow I'll be one ninety something. How exciting. I hoped to be there sooner but I'll take it when it comes along.
Work is so busy that I didn't even think about lunch today. Around 2 p.m. I needed help formatting (fixing and making it pretty) a document. The clerk that came to my assistance/rescue mentioned that I didn't go to lunch. I thought it was just stress that had my head hurting and hands shaking. While she did her wizard work on my document, I ate an apple. I took lunch at 3 p.m. (I get off at 4 p.m.), skipped Curves, came straight home, laid down and took a nap. Now I'm waiting for hunger to hit before I eat. I read that if you aren't physically hungry then your body is burning abnormal fat. Do you think that is true? I also read that you don't have to eat everything you are allowed if you don't want it. When I first read that, I couldn't imagine not wanting the little bit I am allowed. Right now I couldn't care less about food, this is a wonderful thing. No hunger; no cravings; nothing telling me I gotta eat.
Anyway, I saw the comment about skipping exercise. Thanks, I appreciate your two cents. I do believe I will take your advice. I hate to exercise anyway but it is great stress relief. However, the nap this afternoon worked wonders. Yep, an after work nap may be better than exercise for a while. Well that's it for today's report.

HCG R1 DAY10 VLCD DAY 7
Weight was up this morning by .2 lb. to 201.6. I should have expected it but I didn't. I've been doing this 10 day and only lost 5.2 lbs. I can lose 1/2 lb a day by counting calories and working out (I've lost 85 lbs in the last 2 years with Weight Watchers). I don't get it.
Work was stressful today and I want so badly to just eat. I went into my boss' office thirty minutes before time to leave and got a Hershey miniature dark chocolate bar. I'm the only person in the building that eats them. I didn't even try to stop myself from eating it either so I don't know what my weight will be tomorrow.
I didn't realize how freakin much stress/emotions play with my eating. This is huge, no wonder I'm huge. Food is my go to for everything crappy in my life. I'm not one for self reflection. Maybe that is why I've not been successful in the past.
Aside from the candy, I did resist the urge to do drive thru thing on the way home from working out (Curves). I came home and stuck with the VLCD. I have a fruit left which I may skip since I have no idea what the candy is going to do to me.
I have to be strong and hang in there with this deal otherwise it will just be another failure.

HCG R1 D9 VLCD D6
Down one lb this morning to 201.4
Today I went out to eat with friends. Although I ate fish I'm sure it had some oil on it. It was tooo good to be just fish. I also had a small flatbread cracker thing and greens. I'll see how the weight goes tomorrow.
Actually we ate at the Whole Foods Market. They have a huge food bar/deli. I gotta say I was right proud of myself for the selections I made. I really wanted pasta and dessert. However, I know if I don't see HCG though I will not know if it does what it is suppose to do.
Weekends are so short.

HCG R1 D8 VLCD D5
STUCK! Weight this morning same as yesterday 202.4
I am so tired I can hardly keep my eyes open. The sugar blues headache finally went away but I just want to sleep. I have nothing pressing for this weekend so I think I'll take advantage of it.
I know this is a very short post but there really isn't more to report.

HCG R1 D7 VLCD D4
I forgot to post yesterday but I did remember the injection. So far so good. I'm a little hungry today but it is manageable. I had a wicked headache yesterday and most of today but it is gone now. I figure it was lack of my favorite drug (sugar).
Weight yesterday was 205.4 down 2.4 lbs. from the day before.
Today weight is 202.4 down 3 lbs. from yesterday. My starting weight before loading was 206.8 so I'm down 4.4 lbs. from the first injection, I'm down 9 lbs. from day 3 of loading. I'm not sure which weight I'm suppose to go by. I'm going with my weight from the first injection. That is still up 7 lbs from my lowest weight so basically I'm still losing weight I've already lost before.
I hate that I gained but nothing I can do about that now.
Surprisingly the injections don't hurt at all if I poke the needle straight in. I viewed videos of injections being done at an angle but that hurts. I'm keep with a straight poke.
My plans for the weekend are to do nothing. I'm very, very tired. I feel like I could sleep all weekend. I'm wondering if that is normal. Well, I'm rambling so I'll go for now.

HCG Round 1, Day 5, VLCD Day 2
Thanks for the comments and encouragement. Today has been much, much better. I have a confession to make. Yesterday may have gone better had I given myself an injection. This morning when I reached for the alcohol pad I saw it. The injection I should have done yesterday!!! I can't believe I forgot it. More than that I can't believe I forgot that I forgot. Oh well, I disposed of it because I didn't know if it would be any good having set out all day and all night.
Weight this morning was 207.8 so that is down 3.4 lbs from yesterday so I very happy about that. I'm not yet where I started on July 4th but maybe I'll be below it tomorrow.
Work is very busy, I spent 1/2 of today in one meeting that accomplished nothing. At least, I wasn't thinking about hunger or food. I was thinking about all the projects on my desk waiting to be completed.
I'm so excited about finding other HCG bloggers.
Well that's it for my day.

HCG Round 1, Day 4, VLCD Day 1
WHAT THE HELL WAS I THINKING!?! As I sit here, trying not to notice my hunger, this is the thought I am having, "What the hell are you thinking. You know you can't go from thousands of calories a day to 500. You must be absolutely out of your mind."
I've eaten everything I can eat today except for the bread stick or melba toast. I hate melba toast so I'd rather not eat bread at all. It is one thing to fight the urge just to eat but this is real hunger. I thought the HCG would keep me from having real stomach growling hunger. Apparently I was wrong.
I called a friend who has done very well on the HCG and is continuing to lose even though she has been off of it for a while. She could be doing Round 2 but she said she isn't in a hurry. She says the hunger will get better in a few days. She asked if I gorged enough. Honestly I don't think I could have possibly eaten more than I did.
My weight this morning was 211.2 so that is down .2 from yesterday. I've got to keep a positive attitude or I'll be sunk for sure.
Hopefully I will see a big loss in the morning, that would really help to motivate me.
Maybe I need to read the manuscript again. Well, that is enough whining for one day.

HCG Round 1 Day 3
Weight up another pound to 211.4. Can't believe I'm excited about starting the VLCD tomorrow.
Today I ate:
Breakfast: McDonald's large Hazelnut Iced Coffee & an Egg & Cheese Biscuit
Lunch: Sam's Club Hot Dog & Coke Zero
Snack: Ice Cream Drumstick
Dinner: Thick burger with Swiss Cheese, lots of Mayo, lettuce, tomato & onion on a great bun (not a regular bun but I can't think of the name of it) & rest of the bag of Peppercorn Ranch Sun Chips & Coke Zero
I have my lunch ready for tomorrow (chicken & tomatoes) taking an apple and a few strawberries for mid morning and afternoon snacks.
The injection stung a little this morning but it didn't leave a mark so I don't guess I did anything wrong.

HCG Round 1 Day 2
Weight is up to 210.4, almost 4 lbs over night. Not telling what it will be tomorrow morning. No problem with the injection this morning.
Today I've eaten:
Breakfast: 2 ice cream sandwiches with a cup of chai tea & FF milk
Lunch: Veggie & Cheese Omelet
Dinner: Walmart boneless honey bbq wing plate with Amish potato salad and mac cheese
snack: Peppercorn Ranch Sun chips
Consumed a least 64 oz of water
This is not more food than I usually eat but I'm just sick of eating. I'm glad there is only one more day of this.
Well it is back to work tomorrow. It has been a great long weekend. I'm sad for it to end.

HCG Round 1 Day 1
O.K. I did it I gave myself the injection this morning and it was not too bad. The thought was worst than the reality.
Today being July 4th it was not difficult to gorge on food. I would be shocked to know how many calories I consumed today. Since I'm a binge eater, gorging isn't a problem at all it will be the diet that will be hard. Anyway, here is my list of food I consumed:
Breakfast: McDonald's - med. Hazelnut Iced Coffee & Sausage, egg & cheese biscuit
Lunch: With family - Pork BBQ, baked beans, potato salad, slaw, mac & cheese, peach cobbler, ice cream
Mid afternoon - brownie
Dinner - McDonald's - Big Mac, Fries, Sweet Tea plus a big Angus Swiss & mushroom burger then for dessert a bag of choc chip cookies.
I'm sitting here listen to neighborhood fireworks. It doesn't sound like a bad economy around my house. I'm so stuffed, I feel like I may barf. I didn't want any of what I ate today but so many have told me that the 72 hours of gorging is important. I don't understand it because I will gain weight by eating like I ate today. I don't know why you would purposely gain weight.
I weighted and measured this morning.
Weight is 206.8
Measurements are:
Bust 43
Waist 41
Hip 45.5
Belly 45.5
Inner Thigh 19.5
Bicep 12
For what it is worth, I am 5'2" tall.

HCG PROTOCOL
Hi, my name is Anna Bella. Welcome to my blog about losing weight. I will be following the HCG Protocol starting tomorrow. The HCG Protocol involves daily HCG injections plus a very low calorie diet (500 calories). The diet is very restrictive as far as what foods can be eaten so it definitely isn't for everyone. I know several people who have done the protocol with amazing results. To learn more about it, GOOGLE HCG. There are even You Tube video diaries but I'm not that techo savy. This is my first attempt at blogging so I'm shocked I'm actually posting.
This is the only diet I think I have not tried in my 50 + years only to gain the weight back and more but I'm in a good place in my life with a lot of encouragers.
I mixed the HCG today so it is ready for my first injection tomorrow morning. I chose Independence Day to start because for the first three days you eat whatever you want. They are called loading days. In theory you are suppose to lose 1/2 to 1 lb a day. I will be on the Protocol for 40 days as far as shots & diet go, then 3 days on diet without shots, then 21 days of adding foods back to my diet except for sugar and starched. Really, if anyone is reading this don't take my word for it. Since it is the first time I'm doing this, I've got a lot to learn.
This blog is mainly to keep a journal of this journey. Hopefully, some folks will read it and leave me comments. If you have done HCG, please let me know about your experience.
Tomorrow I will weight and measure and I'll post more then.
