I Want to Be Fat...NOT!!!
I knew people could be cruel but never like this. I usually check a couple of posts on a daily basis even if I don't post one of my own. I was amazed and happy for the update that over 411 lbs. had been lost in 6 weeks but then I was disappointed that I haven't added much to the total. I know this diet isn't easy for anyone but why does it have to be so hard for me. I don't get intimidated easily but have learned that I do when weight loss is involved. Over the past few days I have almost found myself in tears (and I don't cry easily). I have learned to be independent and not express myself in fear of being judged. I have been using the HCG message boards lately and found myself sharing and asking more questions lately only to be told, "Why can't you just follow the protocol?" I try to be a very understanding person but it does sting when others don't give that in return. I honestly chose this diet because I do need discipline. It's taking me too long to get it. If I had to be honest I would have to say that food has been the most faithful to me. Maybe that is why it seems so hard to give up. Despite the pain (emotionally and physically) it has caused me, it has always been there whether I needed it or not. I am definitely a voice that wants to be heard.

Dear Cherie
You sound like you're really hurting, and I'm so sorry for that.
I read the yahoo group posts, but I rarely post - they can be a pretty tough crowd! I've found the best way to get support is emailing Cindy Cook directly (her email address is in her book), and she can answer questions specific to your situation. Also, don't hesitate to turn to your fellow HCG Challengers - we're all in this together!
Now you just hang in there with the HCG - I'm convinced that once the results start really coming along that you'll have renewed determination to continue on. And until then, just try to make it through one day, one meal, and one bite at a time. You CAN do this! And you know you NEED to do this. And by being chosen for the Challenge, you DESERVE to do this for yourself.
My favorite quote these days, "It's hard being fat, it's hard losing weight, and it's hard maintaining a weight loss - choose your hardship".
Take care of yourself, my friend - you're not alone!
Hey Cherie dont be too dissapoinated that you havnt lost as much weight as you have wanted to, this diet is not for everyone and just rememeber it has only been six weeks, there is plenty of time to lose all the weight you want, as long as you keep learning new things along the way and you know that you must keep going down in weight and not up you will be fine.
Cherie - don't lose heart... It is tough and food is an addiction for us... I've seen some pretty mean spirited comments on the boards and I just stay away from the for the most part and stick to our little group. I think all or most of us have made mistakes on this protocol. Shoot it took me almost 2 weeks into R2P2 to get my butt back in gear. So what if it takes us a little longer to get there - were still on the road... It's not like you've tossed the HCG in the garbage and said forget it - it's too hard. Just keep getting up and trying and eventually you'll get there girl!!! You can do it! We all can!!!
hey Cherie do not be so hurt, its just being 6 weeks and do not lose hope like that! i am sure that after some break you will be able to follow the protocol and it takes sometime before you could see the difference in your weight and then you will be very happy, i assure you because there were some participants who was like you but at the end of their protocol they were so happy and so joyful that they had forgeotten all the pains and hurts they had! be positive dear and you will succeed! bye and take care!
