This is the end of my HCG ride. I didn't realize that I didn't have enough drops for another 3 weeks, only a week.
I didn't lose all my weight, but the HCG helped me to get half way there. What I wanted from the beginning was to see some real progress to keep me motivated to continue losing weight. Well, I'd say losing almost exactly 30 lbs. did the trick. I am so excited to continue this journey on my own. But, I'm also so excited to just be done with the HCG diet. It was so hard and boring. But, it was very worth it. This extreme way of doing things fit my personality. I have trouble with moderation and consistency. Now I get to put my own will and determination to the test.
So, for the next 3 weeks, I am doing strict low carb. I want my body to stay adjusted to this new weight level. I will get to my goal of 115 this year. It's going to happen.

R3 Day 4 VLCD 147.2 lbs.
147.2 lbs.
So, a 2 oz. loss. Bummer. But, at least, I'm going downhill. I feel really good. 5 pounds in 3 days isn't bad at all!

R3 Day 3 VLCD 147.4 lbs.
147.4 lbs.
33.4% Body Fat
38" around my hips
From Dec. 19, 2009 to Jan. 2, 2010 I took a break. I didn't go crazy, but I went from 149.8 to about 155. Then I started again. I went from Jan. 3 to Jan. 10. I went from 155 to 146.8. But, then it was my birthday on Jan. 11. I thought I was going to take a day off, but I ended up taking a week off. I went back up to 152.2.
So, I started again. Since Round 2 after Thanksgiving was about the length of a short cycle, I am just calling this new start Round 3. I have about enough drops left for at least 30 days. There is nothing to tempt me until Valentine's Day, so this is a good time to get moving.
In 3 days, I have gone from 152.2 to 147.4. That feels pretty dang good!!! I will be in the 130s by the end of this month!!! Yay!!! I haven't been there since 2001. I am so excited!!! I'm tellin' ya, the key is the water!!!!!
Oh, my new favorite spice combo to cook with is garam marsala. Totally awesome!!
