About Me:
Hi All:
Thank you to everyone that has sent me post cards. I began snooping around and researching a long time before I actually started the program. I started 9 days ago at 196.4 and today, August 30, I am 185.4. I have released 11 lbs in 9 days of VLCD. I'm very happy;-)
I started my hCG Phase 1 (Pounds and Inches) 9 days ago.
I tried to do as much of T's Protocol that I could but in the end couldn't afford to do any of it that costs money. I ended up just pigging out for about a month and then started the injections. Perhaps, I would have lost more weight quicker and with less hunger if I had followed T's 30 day Protocol however, I am happy with my progress. I'm down 11 pounds in 9 days! Still using my same old products, taking my meds, and Tylenol.
I did quit taking Tums that was a 10 a day habit for me, allergy pills 4 a day habit, tanning lotions, diet cokes, and went to everything Organic. I am in the process of purchasing an organic brand of face cleansers in the near future. I have to do this a little at a time due to financial reasons. I'm lucky to have the hCG an supplies. I mostly want to get it out to this group that if you are keeping yourself from starting because you cannot afford all of T's or any of his suggested Protocol do not hold yourself back. It still works. You will still drop weight quicker than on any other program, (including Phen Fen), if you follow the diet, hCG, and water. That is without surgery.
I'm a student attending two schools with two different majors and on Unemployment. My husband is on SS so we really do not have any money for extras. After watching hCG dieters on You Tube and discovering that many of them were having great success just following Pounds and Inches I decided to just go for it without any of T's protocol.
I started on August 22, 2008 196.4
Today August 30, 2008 I weigh 185.4. 11 pounds released in a week and 2 days. I'm thrilled. I've never lost weight this quickly in my life and as I said before I am still taking my medications and using my same products.
I would probably lose even quicker if I was doing everything that T suggests but I'm happy doing it this way. Just too scared to give up my meds at this point although, I hope to one day.
If you are on meds and scared to give them up for the hCG plan just try doing it with it. Even if your weight loss is slower it's still worth it and quicker than anything else.
My goal is to eventually take all of T's advice because I think that everything he has researched and shared would make for the ultimate healthiest lifestyle. I just can't afford it right now. I am actually losing weight in order to pass the Physical Abilities Test known as the P.A.T.
Just google P.A.T. for more information. I am going to sign up as soon as I reach 146.2. Which will be a 50 pound weight release. Upon passing that, and being accepted into the training academy, my goal is to become a counselor in the Women's Prison system. This is my main motivation for weight loss including health. Diabetes 2 runs in my family and I'm trying to heal myself before that happens to me.
I encourage everyone to visit You Tube and input hCG there's many people there having great success and very supportive.
Also Yahoo has a huge hCG dieter's chat board.
Please wish me luck and good luck to all of you as we take this journey together. My motto has become "It's NOT easy but it's WORTH it!" It does get easier by the second week of injections and from there on it does seem like incredibly easy weight loss. However, I can understand people's frustrations with purchasing the book and being overwhelmed. Many gave up, never tried it, and called T. a liar for calling it easy.
Well, part of it is marketing and that's just the American way. No one would have bought the book if T was on T.V. saying that it's quite difficult but you should try it. By the time he had lost his weight with hCG and had written and published the book he may had even forgotten how overwhelming it all was in his beginning. It took me a lot of research just to figure out that I didn't have to fly to another country to get the hCG legally through an M.D. I have to keep it legal because of my plans to go into the legal system.
For any brand new people, please don't get overwhelmed. Do your research. Go to: www.hcgsupplies.com I got the "ouchless" needles and they really are. That board will give you a free copy of Pounds and Inches, show you the most reputable site to order your hCG from, and will give you the link to the Yahoo hCG dieters chat board. By the time that you get all of your "stuff", and watch people on You Tube show you how to mix for injections or sublingual, and even inject, you'll be on your way. By the second week I bet that you are calling it easy too. It's definetly fast and easy weight loss.
1 Fact that I have learned is that they tell us not to take hCG during our periods. It's because it causes topical pregnancy. I missed 2 days of hCG on my period this round but I plan to take it during my next round. I'm not worried about getting pregnant. You'll have to judge for yourself.
2: Some of the folks on You Tube are doing the hCG sublingually because they are too afraid to inject. It does work and there's lots of proof. This is not a pill. Just go to You Tube and type in hCG Sublingual. Look for mamaclock. She's lost 77 pounds overnight doing it this way and looks amazing. Don't let fear of needles keep you from doing this for yourself.
More soon,

I apologize about not writing the men on the board anymore. It's too upsetting to my hubby. He's a great guy but does have a bit of a jealous side even though it's unwarranted in this situation but it's just not worth it for me to upset him over it. Even though I'm not writing I consider all of you my friends and wish you all the best.
