Fell off of it again!

Monday, is in sight and I am ready to begin again....the last couple weeks have been very hard for me because I would lose/gain and lose/gain...I had no hope! So I thought about it over the weekend and I am going to start STRONG Monday and stay strong!

I know that I am not going to reach my goal by my birthday, which is Feb. 21st, because that is only 22 days away and I wanted to weight 160! I've only lost 10 lbs! Which is not something that I am sad about at all because it is 10lbs of unwanted FAT!!! :)

So my new goal is to lose 20lbs in 22 days! I know I can do it and I hope that you all will encourage me to do it as well!

til next time!

CIAO!

As I sit here and write this it has been one full week since I started the HCG diet. When I started the cleanse (Phase I) part of the diet on Dec. 26th I weighed a whopping 208.6 as of this morning I weighed in at 197.8 lbs.

I didn't think that I was going to make it the first day....but, I pulled through with the hunger pangs and now know how to deal with them. It's hard to only eat 500 calories a day; but, it is so worth it to know how much weight I am losing and that it is going to stay off forever if I follow the protocol.

There are so many recipes out there it is amazing! You would be totally amazed at what you can make with so little food.

So this is my journal and I will update it at least once a week on Sunday nights if not more. I am really really excited and can't wait to find my old body again! My first goal is 160 by my birthday which is only about a month away (35 days to be exact!) So in 7 days and 2 of those days being my binge days I lost 10.8 lbs. I lost an average of 1.5 lbs per day. Yahooeeee! So if and that's a big fat IF I lose approx 1.5 lbs per day until my birthday I can lose 52.5 more pounds! I am so so excited I can hardly stand it.

So many of you are wondering what exactly is this diet and how can it be good for you! Well I was in the same boat until I saw friends doing it and keeping the weight off and looking absolutely amazing. For more information visit: hcgdietinfo.com/HCG-Diet-Protocol.htm and read "Pounds & Inches".

Until next time!

Once again I am here to let the world know that I am going to try this again! Today I weighed in at a whopping 208.6 lbs! Goal weight 150! So I have 58.6 to lose!

I am trying the HCG diet and I started the cleans which is Phase I! I am excited to endure this process here is to the beginning of my 21 day journey on Phase I and 1000 calories a day!

Oh My…

OH My… has it really been 8 days since I have blogged SHAME on me! From my last post I was very down because over the holiday weekend I fell off the "Bandwagon".

Well peeps, I have got to say I've lost 15 pounds since I started this journey on June 21^st! (that's 25 days) WAHOOOO!!!! Only 35 more to go to my goal. I am more excited about this than you can ever imagine because when I "fell off the wagon" I was depressed MAJORLY!!! So now I have new regain faith that I CAN do this!

Thank you to everyone that is supporting me it helps tremendously and encourages me to keep going. So now I am off to pick up my disaterous living room from all of the kiddos and to vacuum then maybe, just maybe, I will get the Wii fit out and kick some ASS!!

 

Happy Friday!

Beth

Sorry peeps……

I fell off the bandwagon! Damn it!!!

These darn holidays can kill someone who is trying to change their lifestyle eating habits! I SUCK!!!

So a few pounds were GAINED…now for some SERIOUS, I mean SERIOUS changing. I am going to try something new and I am hoping it works. It will be for 15 days. If it works I will go for 26 days; then I will go from there. It is a very strict calorie consumption diet with an appetite suppressant.

I'll keep you all posted! I'm off to EAT!!! Haha

PEACE!

Beth

10 pounds….

Ahhhh….10 lbs off this body FOREVERY….oh it feels so good! I am sitting here at the kitchen table typing this listening to the older girls outside play in the pool and Hayley screaming in the bedroom not wanting to take a nap…. My PANTS are falling off of me!!!

How does that make me feel….AWESOME!!

I have a size 14 pair of capri's on and literally they are falling off of me. WOOHOO!!!

 

Today is the day that my cousin, Ashly and I, set for the day to weigh in after the Atkins challenge. I have to say I DIDN'T like it at all….I was hungry as hell everyday. I will for sure continue to just do my calorie counting it is much easier and I wasn't as hungry. So Ash I only lost 5ish pounds! How did you do?

Well, it is my 11^th day on this new "lifestyle change" and I have lost 10 lbs, really?! The scale really went from 203.9 to 193.6. Almost at my weight when I was preggo with Hayley. Oh, I smell success!

I have been doing something strenuous (cardio) since the day I started and I think that is why I am losing so fast and that I have so much to lose! The last two days I have not went on a bike ride which my oldest daughter, keeps telling me MOM, let's go for a bike ride. SO I promise I will go tonight! I will go tonight!! NO MATTER WHAT! J
We have just been so busy doing things around the house before my hubby goes back to work after 2 VERY LONG weeks off work after his appendectomy!

I have 3 more days until my two full weeks and I want to lose a pound a day! Give me a challenge people!

PEACE OUT!

How did I lose 5.4 lbs! The week in review!

If you have been reading my blog I began this journey on Monday, June 21^st. My starting weight was 203.9 lbs. I began with changing my eating habits to consuming between 1000-1200 calories a day and added 30 minutes of exercise (cardio) a day. I have stayed on track all week. I did splurge on Saturday a little and had a Sno Cone at the Klamath Kruise boy oh boy was it YUMMY! So for all of you that are having trouble staying on the wagon just remember that you can reward yourself at the END of the week with something small if you have stayed on track all week. That is what I am going to do every week if I stay on the wagon for a full week.

I walked, played with kids and did zumba all week. Yes I am sorry as heck from everything I did this week but I will work through it because the HURT feels so GOOD!! J I say that sarcastically!

So I do have to tell a little story about our day yesterday…we woke up at around 7 with a little munchakin coming to our bed…..HAYLEY…to wake us up and get ready for the day WE did not want to wake up at 7 am on a Sunday morning….so finally I drug my butt out of bed into the shower.

We had a long list of to dos to do:

1. Rearrange my bedroom (Dan said we have to paint then) OK!!
   
2. Get the bikes ready for our bike ride tonight (and every night hereafter)
   
3. Clean my house (wow did it need it)
   
4. Water the garden and plant the rest of my veggies (fresh veggies, I so can't wait)
   
5. Fill the pool
   
6. Flood the yard (the irrigation ditch will be shut off for the week Tuesday)
   

So what did I/we finish on this to do list….

We painted our room, clean everything including the windows, we got the bikes ready for the night time ride, clean my house but didn't get the vacuum going and didn't finish my much needed pile of laundry (doing it as I type), Dan, watered the garden (I didn't get the rest of my veggies planted, will do it tonight), Dan filled one of the kiddie pools (the bigger one for the big kids still needs to be filled), and the yard was flooded….good day all in all.

Then we went on our "Family" bike ride and stopped at the park on our way back home so that the girls could enjoy themselves. I thought I was pretty tough and went down the slide..needless to say I "killed" myself doing this. FAT people should not go down twisty slides especially with work out pants on (they're slick). I started to go down this darn slide and was haulin' ass. My hubby was laughing so hard and thought I was going to get EJECTED from the slide…LMAO!!!! I have a huge burn on my arm under my armpit that hurts like hell from being almost EJECTED from the FLIPPIN' slide! I WILL NEVER LET THE SLIDE WIN AGAIN!!! I will never where "work out pants" on a slide again….they're slick….and make you go super super FAST!!

PEACE OUT people and have a FAB week!
