VLCD

I might as well call this my 1st day of the diet. I was surprised after the first day that I didn't gain at all. But a lesson learned for me. Trying to start the VLCD on the weekend is disastrous. I was able to get by for two hours yesterday before I gave in. Now, I'm at work and feeling better. I can try to do things at home but my mind is occupied. I've already have about 14 oz. of water so that is a definite plus for me.

Since I had chicken breast in my freezer I cooked that and some cabbage for lunch. I also made the french onion soup. I'll keep my fingers crossed for all of us. I wish it was that easy but it isn't. It is a struggle nearly every minute.

Loading Day 1

Well I prepared my batch of HCG last night and did my first injection this morning. Two days of loading. I can't wait for a flatter stomach, less love handles, and a better self image.

A Funny Morning

Well, yesterday I wore jeans and the entire day I was thinking I am so tired of my thighs rubbing together. Then I was paranoid for the rest of the day that everyone could hear them. That's my first goal. Then this morning I wanted to put on my knee high boots. I brought them last year and never wore them. Well either my calfs grew bigger or I didn't try them on good enough because I just knew I burned at least 100 calories trying to zippen them. Eventually I gave up and put on some pants instead of the skirt I had ironed. That's goal number 2. :-) They seem like small ones I think.

I received my stuff in the mail last night. Now I will be volunteering all weekend. Now I am loading on Wednesday & Thursday. I know, sure I can probably do it sooner but I may be at the place for 12 hours so I know it will be highly impossible for me to stick to it. Just being honest.

Getting Started Later

I was hoping my supply of needles, etc. would be here but it isn't. I called today and they were out of stock of some of the items I ordered. But been a bunch of protocol people getting their orders today. I just got a confirmation email that it had been shipped so next week it should be here. I had all these plans to load this weekend so I better wait until it gets here.

Waiting by the Mailbox

Well, I have my HCG but I'm waiting for the rest of my upplies. I ordered them a week ago and am trying to be patient given the holiday time. Hopefully, it will be here by tomorrow because otherwise I may have to wait to do my load. I was planning on doing Saturday & Sunday.

And, will the media leave Oprah alone... who isn't gaining weight? and if they aren't, they are suffering from some other kind of issue and complaining about how hard it is. Okay, I'll be nice :-)
