My HCG (2011) Journey & 2016 Shape Reclaim Journey
Friday, July 31, 2009
I'm still here...
Well - I seem to be doing pretty good "periodically" with my weight loss. I've been jumping on the mini trampoline each day since we got it...I love it!!! Still watching what I'm eating and have lost a total of 4 pounds so far.
I have never really had trouble with my weight until after the birth of my second child. I'm sure gaining 60 +pounds while awaiting for her arrival didn't help. The fact that I was in my 30's and 9 months after her arrival would begin to stay home which would attribute to a much more seditary life probably didn't help either. In recent years, the seditary lifestyle had begun to pack on more pounds than I could handle. I tried numerous amounts of things, dietary changes (cutting out sweets:), exercising, etc. Nothing worked, never would I lose more than 5 pounds and that was SO frustrating. In 2009 we were on a missons trip and someone there had just done HCG and was raving about it...that was my first exposure. Being the skeptic that I was...I never really gave it any thought. That is until I saw a photo of another girl that was on that same mission trip with us and how thin she was...I FREAKED out. Low and behold I found out that she had done HCG and I couldn't BELIEVE the results. Unfortunately, while her results were AWESOME, I still didn't become a "believer" in it for several months later. Around July - Sept 2010 I kept being exposed to people around me who were looking AMAZINGLY good and kept finding out that all of them had done or where doing HCG. Still not 100% ready to commit to it, I held on to my now 160+ pound self a bit longer. I ran into a girlfriend of mine who had been struggling with her weight too and she now looked FABULOUS...she had just dropped 17 pounds and I just couldn't believe it. While talking to her, I began getting emotional about my no longer being able to fit into my clothes and my weight was beginning to take a tole on me...I knew then as I was crying to her that HCG is what I had to "try" to do. If it didn't work then I didn't know WHAT I would do...thankfully, it did work and I'm a living testimony to the HCG protocol losing almost 17 pounds in my first round I am so thankful that I did it and thank God for it.
