I *really* want to > salvage the day after screwing up at lunch. UGH! Well, good news and bad news. I stuck to 400 calories for the rest of the day so I came out at 2018. I was cold and tired so I laid down at 7pm and went to sleeep! It's 11pm now and I just woke up and had my hot vanilla milk and now I'm going back to sleep. The bad news is that I didn't exercise. I feel like I salvaged the day. Normally I would have had that Chik Fila lunch at the mall and easily consumed another 1000+ calories for the rest of the day. pissed me off today. This morning I left for the mall at 9:15 am for the Libby Lu party, met at my parents' house at 1pm to take the kids to check out a pop-up camper to rent for spring break, and arrived back home about 4:30pm. I was hungry so I grabbed 2 sugar free puddings out of the fridge. I had not eaten one bite in front of all day and he said " are you going to eat **both** of those? " Ummmm..... yes dear.... I'm going to pig out on 120 calories of sugar free pudding! Sheesh. He never says stuff like that so it was weird that he would comment on a fairly healthy snack. Men. I need to stock up on sugar free pudding and jello tomorrow at Sam's. I find those to be life savers. I can go in the kitchen with the munchies and I can down a couple of 10 calorie Jellos and it stops me from shoving something unhealthy in my mouth. It just gives me a minute to slow down and think about what I'm going to eat. Kind of like a like a food air bag. It stops me from crashing through the windshield. I don't have to include the jello in Fit Day. At 10 calories apiece if I need to eat 12 of them in one day that's ok. Thankfully I haven't had to do that yet. The pudding is 60 calories each so I have to include that. 's going to cook dinner tomorrow. Gasp! That never happens. He's making beef stefado in the crock pot. Some sort of Greek beef stew. Should be interesting. No idea how to count it. Maybe beef bourgoine would be a close calorie count. I'll try to eat lots of fruit and healthy stuff throughout the day to compensate for the high calorie dinner. Hopefully it will be really bad so I won't be tempted to eat more than a polite amount. Back to bed after I go shave my teeth. They feel really yucky after sleeping for 4 hours without brushing them. Ann Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 30, 2005 Report Share Posted January 30, 2005 >Sue is going to smack me for the fiber. Life happens! You really didn't have much control over lunch, and did the best you could under the circumstances. What would the alternative been - a plain salad? That's not a meal, at least not for a normal person. At least you learned from the experience - to check the nutritional info *before* going.

You *know* men never have a clue as to hjow they're supposed to react to a dieting wife! > 's going to cook dinner tomorrow. Gasp! That never happens. He's > making beef stefado in the crock pot.

Guest guest Posted February 16, 2011 Report Share Posted February 16, 2011 HCG drops? HCG is an injectable hormone. It is not a drop. It is not an herb. It is not a tablet. Even though there are plenty of places to buy stuff with the letters HCG on the label that is not HCG. If used correctly is does not cause additional or faster weight loss. It is to block the hypothalamus starvation response to a very low calorie diet. The starvation response causes weight loss that can make you look tired, drawn, and look older. Facial fat can be lost and cause skin to sag and look older.The body will try to retain fat on hips, thighs, and waist. It will try to conserve the calories and regain any lost weight, and more, as quickly as possible. Good luck with your drops. If you want to try HCG you will need to get the injectable hormone.

Guest guest Posted February 16, 2011 Report Share Posted February 16, 2011 The drops and pellets are just not HCG. You will lose weight. The studies show you will lose just as much weight on the diet without HCG ( or taking other stuff that is not HCG) You can believe anything you want. You can believe Weight Watchers or Craig is HCG. It is not. There are many ways to try to lose weight, but if want to try HCG and get the benefit of HCG, you have to actually use HCG. I really wish anyone trying to lose weight all the best, no matter how they are trying to do it. But there are plenty of rip offs and cheats out there, especially in the world of weight loss. Anyone selling drops and pills and calling it HCG are lying and cheating people. In a message dated 2/16/2011 10:06:49 P.M.

Guest guest Posted February 16, 2011 Report Share Posted February 16, 2011 It seems logical that if the homeopathic remedies arent effective, then the person would gain back the weight after the protocol is finished. Does anyone have any data to support whether or not people gain the weight back due to the fact that the hypoth. gland is not being reset? I know someone who lost 30 pounds on the homeopathic drops so I know one can lose weight. Question is how do we know if the metabolism has been reset? I followed the original protocol with the injections even though I really had resistance to syringes. But I got over myself after the first injection. It was only in my head, as are all fears. I think it's a perfect opportunity to get past one's fear of needles, doing this protocol. That being said, people will continue to do variations on the diet and deal with whatever consequences that brings forth. As an HCG coach, I choose only to work with people who are willing to do the original protocol. No judgements. It's just I know for sure it is backed by research and can feel confident when I tell people they will reset their hypoth. gland. Sure has worked for me. 29 pounds, 29 inches in 40 days!
