Where to purchase the HCG diet

I have had a few people ask where I got my HCG diet drops from. I purchased them here. www.newhcgdrops.com The owner of the company is a man in my stake who I trust. They are kinda pricey, but who can put a price on your health.

Day 27

It is hard for me to get excited for today. The scale gave me a 144.4 lbs this morning. I guess I should be happy for it because I realize that it is close to half a pound and not 4 ounces.

I am going to...........as much as I dread it.........................having a apple day today. I am so not looking forward to it. The 1st two apples are good..........after that I am just choking it down. This brings the 21 day total to 15.4.

I hope that my body does not just go back to what it was doing before. Another apple day will kill me! The 19 day total weight loss is 15.2 lbs. Yesterday I went up and saw my Mom and Dad for a few hours. When my dad very first walked in the door he said. Mindy, have you been loosing weight? You face looks a lot slimmer.

What the HE-DOUBLE-HOCKEY-STICKS is going on with me. I got on the scale this morning and I was 148.2. A flippen gain of .2 lbs. I am so discouraged. I am wanting to quit this diet because I am no longer seeing the results. It is so depressing. I know that the hard weekend is coming up and I am scared. I am going to do a apple day today. From what I hear, it sucks. I only have one little here this morning, so I am going to pack him to Harmon's and get an assortment of apples so I have a little variety today. I think that I am also going to do some exercise on the elliptical. I need to make serious changes to day to see if I can get a loss. I have to 17 day total loss of 13.2 lbs.

I do not like today. I was expecting a big loss. It has taken alot of sacrafice on my part to do this diet. Today the scale rewarded me with a 148.4 lbs. a lousy .4 lbs weight loss.

Weekends are horrible for dieting. I never thought that I would be wishing that it was a weekday. I am seriously messed up! The scale was semi kind to me today. I weighed in at 148.8 lbs. This is a .6lbs weight loss. For a weekend, I will take it. At least it was not a gain. This brings the 14 day total to 12.6 lbs. I am hoping for a super big number tomorrow.

Arm: 10 1/2 --10 1/2--10 1/2
Thigh: 22 1/8 --20 1/2--19 3/4

So, we are seeing some inches lost. What is up with no losing at the arms? I guess that I am okay with my arms. I really wanted to focus on the torso region. I have lost alot in the "GIRLS" area. They are getting smaller, but I did not take a measurement there.

This week is going to be good, I am hoping for a good day tomorrow. Goals. 200 oz water, very little salt and eating on time.

I like the sound of that. Also, I feel that tomorrow I will see the 140's. ( I hope that I just did not curse myself!) It is feeling good to have the weight gone. Imagine a 10 lb bag of flour right in my mid section, that is gone plus more! People are starting to notice, it make a girl feel good and capable of staying on the diet. Last night was super hard. So many delicious dishes to try. At least everyone else said they were delicious, they smelled fantastic! I did not cave, I had 2 glasses of water. (Who knew that I had such will power?)

Yippee! I am not gonna lie, it is so hard to cut out the salt. I have to admit that I used it on my broccoli yesterday. I did use a very small amount though.

Sigh........On a good note, I am down 6.8 pounds in just six days. I have discovered that weekends are going to be the challenge for me. When I am home, I am able to drink my water and eat on time.

I was really worried about yesterday, but it worked out okay. I can look in the mirror now and see the results. It looks like my neck and face are slimmer and my gut looks smaller. I will measure on mondays and post the inches lost. Here's to another great day!

I am also so sore today. I played in a volleyball tournament last night and played 8 matches. My knees hurt so bad. I am not sure if it is the HCG making them weak or me running around and diving on the floor like a moron. It could be both. This morning my stomach is a little upset, I think it is because I did not eat my apple last night until 9:30. I need to make sure and get all my calories consumed by 8:00 pm from now on.

Today was a hard day. I was out and about today and it was hard to get my drops on time and eat at good times. I did not cheat, but I am worried about the scale tomorrow. Weekends are going to be hard.

Day 7

I got on the scale this morning and weighed in at 156.6. I lost 1.0 lb! Total down is 4.0lbs. Yeah, I am not sure if I should be worried that the amount that I lose each time keeps going down. I guess that as long as I keep losing at least a pound a day I will be happy. I have a volleyball tourament tonight, hopefully I will have the energy to play. I will make sure to take the B12 vitamins tonight that give me energy.

Breakfast:
10 drops HCG

So far so good. Today before lunch I was able to take a shower! It was awesome. I only have 4 littles today and one was in naptime, one was at preschool and the other 2 are 7 and they wanted to watch TV. I asked them if I let them watch Spongebob and have a fruit snack, would they be nice while I take a shower. It worked out great.

Lunch
3.5 oz shrimp 110 calories
7 oz lettuce 30 calories
2 melba toast 25 calories
touch of balsamic vinegar 2 calories
up to 60 oz water

I make a salad but putting the vinegar on the lettuce and the salad shrimp on top and then crush my melba toast for croutons. It is so good. To bad I have to suffer so!

I will again save my apple for a snack later.

Dinner
10 drops HCG
10.5 oz tomatos 60 calories
3.5 oz crab 100 calories

Day 6

Drum Roll..................157.6..........CHING! I am down another 1.4 lbs. Yeah! Its working! (knock on wood) Total weight loss so far is 3.0 lbs, in 2 days! I am ready for another day. A good side effect that I am having is that I am sleeping well. I am tired at night and it is easier for me to fall asleep. I am not having to wake Kendall up because he is snoring. Looks like he is getting better sleep too!

Breakfast:
10 drops HCG

I was so hungry for lunch time. I made the littles pizza and it practically killed me! For lunch I had.....I have been craving canned tomatos. I put them up this year! They were fantastic just out of the jar! YUM!!!

Lunch
10 drops HCG
10.5 ounces stewed tomatoes 60 calories
3.5 oz chicken 87 calories
2 1/2 melba toast 31 calories
Up to 60 oz water

I am going to save my strawberries for a snack later. 12 strawberries = 72 calories

I made it until about 2:00 and I needed food! The strawberries hit the spot. I have also drank 80 oz of water so far today.

Dinner
10 drops HCG
3.5 oz shrimp 110 calories
7 oz broccoli 68 calories
orange 59 calories

So, for the day I consumed a total of 499 calories. I have drank 120 oz of water. I am not gonna lie, getting the water down is about gagging me! Good day for me, I hope that I see the results in the morning.

Side note: Dyllon and Kendall are naughty! They went and got a baskin robbins blast. Those suckers are more calories then I have consumed in the last 3 days! Why must they torture me? If they keep this up, they will no longer get a different dinner then me!

Day 5

Drum Roll, I weighed myself this moring and I was 159.0. I lost 1.6 lbs. Yeah! So, I am ready for today. I am a bit tired this morning, but that is very normal for me. I really don't start feeling awake and 100% until around 10am.

Breakfast
10 drops HCG
12 0z hot lemon water (water, fresh lemon juice and 1 packet truvia)

Boy, was I ready for lunch. It really is a challenge when I have to fix lunch for others. Such a temptation! I have not cheated thought. I did take a really long smell though.

Lunch
10 drops HGC
3.5 oz shrimp 110 calories
3.5 oz lettuce 15 calories
4-melba toast 50 calories
touch of balsamic vinegar 2 calories
water is at 60 oz

I will save my 72 calorie apple for a snack.

Snack:
Apple 72 calories

I sliced my apple thinly and sprinkled with truvia and cinnamon. I then baked it in the oven with a touch of water in the bottom. It was so yummy! Tasted like apple pie. I'm not even cheating, but it feels like it!

Dinner:
Crab 3.5 oz 100 calories
Broccoli 3.5 oz 34 calories
2 melba toast 36 calories
grapefruit 74 calories

Today I have been good. I am proud to say that I have not cheated! So for the day, I consumed 494 calories and by the time I go to bed I will have consumed 145 oz water. I will see you in the morning.

Day 4

So, today I feel is the first day of the diet. It's going pretty good and I am not starving yet. Okay, it is only 8:16 am. I still super full from the last 3 days of binging. My starting weight this morning was 160.6 (everybody pretend the number is lower) I gained over 3.8 lbs in the last 3 days. YIKES! Hopefully we see the number dwindle fast. I am going to take my measurement, but I have not gotten to that yet. The goal is to drink about 100 oz of water per day. And take the drops 3 times a day.

Breakfast:
10 drops HCG (yum!)
12 0z water

Lunch:
10 HCG drops
3.5 oz crab meat 100 calories
7 oz asparagus 40 calories
2- melba toast 25 calories
I am up to 60 oz water consumed

I still have a 80 calorie apple to eat for my lunch, I am going to save it for a snack later. Do any of you realize how much asparagus it takes to make 7 oz. It is a lot!

So, you can see that I am not suffering to much. I do miss the butter. I really like to spritz the asparagus with the butter spray and that is not allowed. I went ahead and steamed it with Mrs Dash and then put fresh lemon juice on it. It was good, but not as good as the butter.

It was a lot of food and I can't fit the apple in. See you at dinner!

Snack
1 meduim apple 80 calories
water is at 80 oz right now.

Dinner
chicken 3.5 oz 87 calories
tomatoes 7 oz 40 calories
melba toast 4 50 calories
8 strawberries 72 calories
I have consumed 130 oz water and went to the potty 20 times!

Total calories for the day: 496
Total water for the day: 130 oz

Today was a good day! I did not cheat. I was not hungry. I think that I can do this! I am tired.

Measurements:
Neck: 14 1/2
Waist: 39 1/2
Arm: 10 1/2
Thigh: 22 1/8

HCG Diet

On friday, I started the HCG Diet. I have a friend that has lost over 20 lbs in the last 35 days, so I thought I would give it a try. I am now on day three and it has not been to bad.........granted, I am on my load days. The basics of the diet are: For 3 days you take the HCG drop and load up on high calorie, high fat and sugar foods. For 37 days you are restricted to a special 500 calorie diet that includes only certain items plus the HCG drops. For 21 days you have a maintainance diet of 1500 calories. So, to thell you the truth I am getting pretty sick of the loading. I really don't want to eat anymore and will be gratedful for tomorrow. I am going to post my start weight tomorrow and my food journal.
