HCG Is Going Strong

Just wanted to share with all that the HCG Platinum I got from Hi Health is working great. I've lost 15.4 pounds in only seven days and I feel great!

The primary difference between this HCG and the homeopathic drops I did last time is that the platinum has added some important amino acids that help you metabolize fat and build muscle. This is important because on these drops you are encouraged to exercise, the exact opposite of the previous HCG instructions.

The extent of my workouts has been limited to walking only. I won't sugar coat it, not even stevia coat it, I am walking A LOT. I am trying to get in a minimum of 3 miles a day. So far this morning I walked 1.2 miles before breakfast, then 1.43 miles after lunch and will walk another 2.5 miles tonight.

On average I have lost 2 pounds a day doing this. Life is good! My goal was to lose 15 pounds and I crushed that in a week. Now I am resetting my goal and going for 20-25 pounds.

I have some challenges ahead of me. First is PowerShell training night this Wednesday. They serve pizza. I want it bad too...I have not yet decided if I should indulge and just be sure to walk a ton or if I will try to figure out what I could eat cold and bring it with me. The latter is not very appealing. next big challenge is Saturday, that is fight night. I think it should be easy enough though to just order a salad to get by on that one. Final challenge I know of is the 11th where there will be a work lunch that I need to participate in.

Back on HCG

This past weekend I decided to go back on HCG, I've been walking a lot and figured the extra boost to my weight loss would be helpful.

This time around I am using HCG Platinum which is available from Hi Health for around $30.

Now that I am up on Facebook I've been posting my updates there. Still doesn't hurt to spread the good news around to the blog too. So here are my past two days results/

1/26/2011 HCG Update: Weight: 210.0, Blood Pressure: 130/58, Blood Glucose: 104. Down 6.6 pounds today, that is a little misleading since before carb loading I started at 212 lbs. By my count I am right on track with a pound a day of loss.
