APPLE DAY!!

Ate 6 apples today


Since I had to travel to day, I figured this was the easiest thing to eat since I didnt have access to all the foods that I would normally eat. I was actually surprised how full I feel after eating 6 apples. I made sure to drink plenty of water and tea through out the day.

Day 18: I can see the light at the end...

Thursday 2.4.10

So I am down to my final 6 days, let the countdown begin. It really has gone by fast though. I am so pleased with how everything went and not only can I see a difference on the scale, I can also see a difference in my clothes and just by looking at myself. I tend to show weight gain/loss a lot through my face, so that has been one of the best things is to see that my face is a little slimmer.

Today I weighed at 130 again. I have been staying at this weight for several days now, but I'm not sure I will lose any more on the HCG. Your body might reach a point where it feels like you have lost enough for this particular cycle of the diet. I feel like I'm there but I am happy with what I have accomplished. I have lost a total of 11 pounds on in the past 18 days.

My day went as follows:
morning coffee, I was too busy during lunch and had to skip which is NOT good. Don't skip any meals, but it's just what happened. I was super hungry for dinner since I missed a meal. For dinner I had baked chicken breast, a side salad with cherry tomatoes, and 4 wheat thins with tea.

I did drink A LOT of water today. Be sure and get all your water in to maximize your weight loss. The more you drink, the more you lose!

HCG Diet

LOST 2.7 POUNDS

Day 5

Breakfast- Apple, Starbucks Coffee, with vanilla Stevia drops

Lunch- 3.5 oz grilled chicken, cup of lettuce, couple of cherry tomatoes. Balsamic Vinegar used for dressing.

Snack- Apple

Dinner- 3.5oz extra lean ground beef made into a patti, topped with Valentina hot sauce, and half a cucumber seasoned with salt, pepper, and balsamic vinegar.

Its important to make sure you are not using any kind of oils not only in your food, but also your bodywash, facewash, makeup, etc...
I like using Neutrogena oil free products, such as their face lotion, bodywash, and facewash. I also recommend using the Curel fragrence free body lotion.

Day 17: One week to go

Wednesday 2.3.10

I weighed 130 again this morning. I feel like I might be at my body's minimum for the time being, but I am hopeful for a few more pounds.

Here's what I are today:
coffee for breakfast, 2 boiled eggs in place of my meat for lunch, and an apple as a snack. For dinner I had a grilled chicken breast, and a side salad with some mustard on the side. I also had more coffee later night to fill me up and to snack on.

Be sure and check out my friend Natalie Debellis on this blog also. This is her 3rd time on HCG and has done awesome! I only have 1 week left and I very pleased with my results.

Several of my friend's and family have started the HCG and I wanted to share a few of those success' with you.
My brother in law is on day 5 (which includes loading days) and is already at 6 pounds lost. He is doing awesome. My sister started at the same time and has lost 2-3 pounds. Goes to show men always lose faster than women. Keep up the good work everyone!

I recommend the Valentina Hot Sauce, adds a great flavor. Can be purchased at Wal Mart. Since I tend to get hungrier at night I like to have a cup of decaf coffee, with a couple drops of cinnamon stevia, It helps to fill me up at night when I start getting those late night cravings.

NATALIE'S JOURNEY

I am Natalie... I work at Kadiza also... I have been on the HCG Diet twice and have lost around 33 lbs. I am starting my third round of the diet. I am taking the one OZ of drops. 3 times a day, as directed. Follow my journey, and SEE HOW I DO!!!!


HCG Diet

Day 3 (start of diet after loading)

Daily Food



Breakfast- Apple, Starbucks Orange Blossom Tea



Lunch- Cucumber with Vinegar , 3.5 oz Oscer Myer Chicken



Snack- Apple



Dinner- 3.5oz Extra Lean Ground Beef Patti, Cauliflower with green tabasco sauce

Decaf Coffee with Cinnamon flavored Stevia




My favorite fruit to eat is an apple, it seems to fill me up the most. I like using vinegar on my meat and veggies to give them some extra flavor. Starbucks orange blossom tea is delicious. The green tabasco sauce that I used on my veggies is a little spicy, so by using that on your veggies and meat, it seems to make me feel more full. Today i did not eat either one of my melba toats. I generally like to take my first set of drops as soon as I wake up in the morning, and then my second and third set thirty minutes befor my meals. Its very important to drink plenty of water through out the day.

My total weight loss on HCG is 33 pounds.

My goal is to loose 20 pounds on the 21 day plan starting today!!

HERE GOES!

IMPORTANT EVERYONE NEEDS TO READ!!!!!

My advice FOR HOLLY... Do not eat out even one single time...

The diet was made for you to prepare your own food and precisely know your ingredients.

I recommend eating out once you are on maintenance.
I know Rosa's seasons their meat. It has oils which is a NO NO. Most ALL seasoning have msg and sugar... YOU must read labels.

IF THE FOOD YOU EAT DOESN'T HAVE A LABEL... YOU MAYBE FACING BREAKING ONE OF THE DIETS KEY GUIDELINES... WHICH YOU MUST FOLLOW TO ACHIVE OPTIMUM LOSS!!!

THE ONLY FOOD YOU DO EAT THAT DOESNT HAVE A LABEL IS FRESH FRUIT AND VEGGIES. THAT ARE ON THE LIST INCLUDED IN THE STARTER GUIDE!

HAVING ANY SUGAR, OIL OR MSG will cause you not to loose for days... The diet is a a science and its not for convenience. It is for a big loss and a cleanse. It may not be the most fun thing to do as far as variety and such, but it lasts 3 weeks.

Spagetti squash isn't on the list of approved veggies. It is a great idea for a "healthy" alternative to pasta... For the purpose of the diet it is necessary to stick to your greens and such as "tiring" as it might be... IT ALL PAYS OFF IN THE END!

EXAMPLE.... SQUASH (YELLOW VARIETIES 94 CALORIES A SERVING) (GREEN ZUCCHINI 14) SEE THE DIFFERENCES...
THEY ARE TOTALLY DIFFERENT PROPERTIES.

I challenge you to prepare and be precise, and I know you will have a fabulous week and lose to your goal!!!! KEEP IT UP!!!!

Day 15


Monday 2.1.10
Today I weighed in at 131 pounds again. I am still at my plateau, but hoping for a loss tomorrow. It makes it harder to stay focused on eating right when I am not losing any more weight, but I will finish the plan. I decided to take a day off from the drops, that is one of the plateau breakers.

Today I decided to make spaghetti with meat sauce for lunch. Now I know you're wondering how you can have spaghetti on this diet? Instead of having pasta noodles, I did an easy no carb option. I bought a spaghetti squash and cut it in half longways. After that I scrpaed out the seeds and placed the 2 halfs face down in a glass baking dish and baked for 1 hour at 375 degrees. I also poked the squash with a fork before baking it. After that hour, take a for and scrape the squash, the pieces will come out like angel hair pasta.






For my spaghetti sauce I boiled 5 vine ripe tomatoes then peeled the skin. In a blender I put the tomatoes, onion & garlic. Then I added diced tomatoes, mushrooms, and lean ground beef and cooked slowly. Season with salt, pepper, onion powder, and garlic salt. When you put the sauce on top of the squash you would think you were having regular pasta. It was really good. The spaghetti squash has 45 calories per cup. It was a really filling lunch. I also had salad and melba toast. Then I had 6 strawberries for dessert.

For dinner I had hibachi style chicken (prepared in a pan with soy sauce and lemon juice) and mixed veggies baked in the oven seasoned and placed in foil. I put mushroom, zucchini, and onion. I really only ate the mushrooms. Then I had an orange for an evening snack.

Sundays and Mondays are really hard for me to get all my water in so that is one issue I have. When I am at work it is really easy to drink a lot of water because I refil my water bottle all day with the Aqua One machine.

Hopefully I will be able to break away from my plateau tomorrow. I only have 8 days left!
