Today is the Day (Day 1 of HCG "fat loading")

Well today we officially started the HCG diet. We (my husband and I) are disgustingly overweight...well I am anyway. So I thought I would journal the journey. I think it's important to do that. So yes there will be before and after pictures.

I have 90 pounds I am going to lose. He has 30. I think it will take me a little longer. What do you think? ;-)

So on this diet the first 2 days are called "fat loading days". You start taking the drops and you eat as many high fat calories as you can possibly stand...I'm not doing very well so far...only McD's for lunch. GROSS but high fat. It's an important part of the diet they say. I also got some "no oil" make-up and face cream so I could still look human.

We have done cleanses. I did 2. I did a liver cleanse and that was killer. I was exhausted while doing that. I also did a heavy metals cleanse. That one, for me, as not so bad. I am going to through a naturopath. He is not. We'll see how it goes.

Anyway, I am excited! to. start. the. next. phase. YAY!

It's funny because we are changing so many areas of our lives...this is the last "fat" weekend". We are getting rid of our too expensive car next week and that will be a big step towards getting us out of debt. We are getting rid of clutter around the house. We are in the middle of revamping the business. So many changes. All so very good...and also very painful all at the same time.

In the end...it will be worth it!

So here we gooooooooooooooooo.
