I thought I would document my journey on HCG. So, if you don't care the read about it, the title of them will be day 2, day 3 and so forth. So let's begin at the begging of when I decided to do this. After each kid I never lost all the weight I gained. After Paige, I lost the most, because I actually tried. Then before I got pregnant with Millie, I start prozac (not realizing that it makes you gain weight). I thought I was pregnant, because I was gaining weight and not doing anything different then before. I went to the dr.'s and took a test there. I found out I wasn't pregnant and was wondering why I was gaining the weight. Didn't do anything to found out. Then, I think it was a month or two later, I did get pregnant. So after I had Millie, my weight was the same before I got pregnant, which wasn't a great weight.
My family decided to do a biggest looser contest with just my family. My mom and I decided to join Weight Watchers. I was still nursing, so my points that I was allowed were pretty high. So when I counted my points for each thing I ate, by the end of the day, I was eating pretty much the same amount of stuff I was already doing. The food was healthier though. We did it for 11 weeks and I lost a total of 11 to 13 pounds, some where around there. I wasn't exercising like I should, but doing more then before. Well, sad to say we all didn't finish the challenge, besides my mom, who lost a lot of weight and was dedicated to it. She looks great and keeps up her exercising most mornings and has a good eating habit. (wish I could be more like my mom).
Anyways, I tried in spurts to loose the weight. I would go for long walks, 1 mile to 3 miles, at least 2 days a week. I felt good and was seeing some progress on the scale, then things changed and I stopped walking all the miles. Then the weight came back, plus more. I would get depressed and eat and eat. Then I would try it again with little results and get frustrated and quit.
My mom had recommend that I try the HCG. She thought that when I started seeing the results, I would be more inclined to keep working at it. She also suggested that after doing the HCG, that I join Weight Watchers again, so I can learn how to eat properly and the right portions. That was at the beginning of the year. I thought about it and was like, every time you try and loose the weight fast, you end up gaining it back, plus more. So, I decided not to. Now that I am at my heaviest and it is getting harder for my to do stuff with my kids, I thought I needed to do something about it. So, here I am, at my heaviest, doing the HCG shots. Now that journey begins. I am ready!!!!
