day 3

day 3 weight: 284.2  + 0.8 lbs

well today was the first day of eating the low calorie diet. . .no problems really.  it is a bit hard for me to adjust because i was used to eating a healthy 2000 calorie diet and eating about every 2 - 3 hours.  that was how i lost my first 50lbs.  woke up with a headache, and kept it all day today, that's annoying.  i've been told a headache is a side effect.  don't think i mentioned it before, but i am drinking around 4.5 liters of water a day.

day 2

day 2 weight: 283.4  + 0.8 lbs

well, day 2 of loading. . . .to say i feel sick and miserable would be an understatement.  giving yourself a shot is fun.  very lethargic at work today, yes, more than normal :-)  after eating all this though, it's understandable.


today i ate:

2 DOUBLE WHOPPERS
1 TENDERCRISP CHICKEN SANDWICH
2 LARGE FRIES
1 FAMILY SIZE ORDER OF PIZZA STICKS
6 KRISPY KREME DOUGHNUTS
1 SLICE OF ICED COOKIE
3 SCOOPS BREYERS VANILLA

day 1

day 1 weight: 282.6

so today i went for my consultation and to get started with this process.  the first two days are what as known as "load days" where i get to eat all i can eat basically.  i received my first injection of the HCG hormone today and will continue to give myself one injection everyday for 40 days.  i also have a colon cleanser that i will be taking twice a day for the first 7 days and then again the last 7 days.  every 3 - 4 days i'll be going by the clinic for a lipotrim shot and i also have b12 pills that i'll take starting on day 3.  my diet today. . .was everything i love pretty much. . . .

today i ate:

MOTOS YAKI, SHRIMP, CHICKEN DINNER

SUPER DOUBLE BACON CHEESEBURGER

CHILI CHEESE FRIES

OREO MILKSHAKE

HOT FUDGE CAKE

VANILLA ICE CREAM

2 KRISPY KREME DOUGHNUTS

preface

to quote a friend of mine. . .i've been overweight once in my life. . .since i was 10.  well. . .that's not totally true.  when i was 18 i went from 336lbs down to 180lbs by eating nothing but frozen yogurt from Hardee's.  needless to say i gained all that back.  so at age 35 i started actually feeling 35. . .aches and pains, getting outta bed was becoming harder.  i was no longer in my 20's and felt like i could rule the world.  i decided it was time to not only lose all the weight but to get in shape as well.  i started a diet and exercise regiment and was successful in dropping 50lbs or so.  i had some friends that had done the HCG program and had great results.  i know and understand that eating right and exercise is the key to weight loss, and i felt like the diet and exercise regiment i had been on was something i could do for the rest of my life without a problem.  the hcg diet isn't easy to do by any means, but anything worth having isn't normally just handed to a person.  as i look at it, your food choices are quite limited, and as a picky eater that concerns me but i think i can do anything for 40days. . .and if i can get similar results to others, then it's well worth it.  once i get all the weight off i'll be able to resume my exercise and diet regiment and be happy.  i look at the HCG as a way to quickly shed the rest of the weight since i've already learned how to eat healthy and exercise.  i'm sure i could lose the rest of my weight continuing what i'm doing, but if i can accelerate that process, then why not?  so tomorrow i get started.

i'm excited to get this process started.  being from clintwood i know willie hamilton already, and have had the pleasure of working out with him over the past month or so at Anytime Fitness.  i can't express how knowledgeable and helpful he has been already.  i have a feeling that LiveFit Medicine and the people there are direct reflections of him and his attitude, so i very much look forward to it all.
