Weight Loss update

Today is day 11 for me and day 10 for Jared. So far so good. We are both losing weight and are way excited to see our final results. We have to follow the Very Low Calorie Diet (VLCD) for 41 days. Injections are for 43 days. First 2 days of injections are load days- where you eat as much fatty food as you can.

Jared has lost 12 1/2 pounds in 8 days. I am at 8 1/2 pounds in 9 days. I have not done well in the last couple of days as Aunt flow decided to visit. And during this time you plateu or slow down on weight loss. I am totally craving pizza but its nothing serious. Jared is craving pretty much everyhting is sounds like. He drives by a restaurant and craves it. He said he is craving things that he never craved before. I just like to think about when I will be able to eat pizza. We are definately learning how to eat healthier and get creative with food so it is healthier. We have had tacos, Hamburgers, Tomato soup with meatballs, Chicken sandwich, Fajitas, Salads, but obviously no bread so our lettuce is our bread. I have ordered a book for Hcg recipes and I am way excited to get it so we can switch it up. It really gets boring eating the same stuff every day. I think there is a mock spaghetti recipe! Yay! Neither one of us have cheated yet, we are sticking to the diet. It does make it easier having each other to lean on.

Well I will keep you updated with our results.

So as of today we have received everything except the hcg which should be arriving between Feb 12-20. I am getting anxious and excited. Can't wait to see a new me in 40 days!

The next time I write might be when we start our "cure". We will be taking measurements and pics. I am so excited!

Our weight loss "CURE"

So Jared and I are going to do the HCG weightloss cure. Some of you may know or have heard of this. We have so far received our sryinges, mixing needles and vials and are still waiting for the HCG and the b water. Hopefully it will all be here by the middle of February and you will see a new us in 30 days! I am so excited but not really looking forward to stabbing myself everyday. I have heard its worth it and it's all in the mind so I guess we'll see. Jared is hoping to lose 30 pounds and I would like to lose 20-30 pounds. I want to post before and afters and maybe I can talk Jared into it as well.
