HCG Diet, Day 12
I've been reading more diet reviews. It makes me feel better about the things that are tough for me; because they're repeated over and over. One thing that I see repeated a lot in the diet reviews for HCG is that you should just try to stay home. The programs aren't very long so it's kind of feasible. And I absolutely agree that I'm much more likely to successfully complete the day if I am home when it's time to eat. It's my Day 12 on the diet. I'm in the midst of a 25 day program (homeopathic HCG through HCG Diet Direct). And I've got Lisa, a friend of mine, doing the diet with me simultaneously. We've got a side bet going to add some extra inspiration to do well! And I always like to win...
But I might not! Dang it! I'm doing great. And I'm happy with my weight loss so far. But I've hit a few road blocks.
The day started off the same as usual. I got up and weighed myself. I've done pretty well so far remembering to note down my weight daily. I went down one pound. And I'm always good with one pound down. I'm officially at 160. That means I've lost a total of 11 pounds in 12 days. I'm liking the sound of that.
So I keep telling myself that the weight loss is going to inspire me to want to lose more. And it does! But there are certain times when I have a real problem sticking to the approved food list. We've already identified one as the Mall Food Court. It's evil. I won't go back. At least not until I'm not on a 500 calorie per day diet.
Another activity/location that I must avoid at all costs from now until the end of the HCG regime is the "family party." Today was my niece's birthday party. They had a barbeque; which I thought would work out since grilled meat is pretty much HCG approved. So I left planning on eating at the party. But there were delays. We didn't eat lunch at the party. We ended up eating dinner because there was a problem with the grill or something. By the time the food was served I was a raving, starving lunatic. I hadn't eaten anything ALL DAY!
Waiting too long to eat is a definite problem. I've already noticed that. But this day was way worse than the sitting at home and didn't make lunch until I was actually hungry day. I think my stomach was actually starting to eat itself. And then they served up barbequed sausage and turkey legs; which is absolutely fabulously yummy, but WHAT? Where was all the grilled chicken? Along with that I had the choice of Caesar salad or potato salad. I'll cut the long story short and say...well, I did avoid the cake. That's saying something, right? I should have paid more attention to those diet reviews before I put myself in the midst of a family party. I should have put some grilled chicken in a baggie in my purse or something.
