I've lived through eight morning injections of HCG and I've lost 12 pounds. I'm very happy with my results so far! I'm down to 134lbs.
I did great at the party on Saturday night. The food and drinks all smelled yummy, but I just wasn't physically hungry. I was so determined not to cheat again, I must have used mind over matter. I wasn't even hungry hours later!
The three really exciting things that have happened for me so far are:
1. I no longer walk straight to the fridge when I walk in the front door (for me, this was the habit of a lifetime).
2. I'm getting better at recognizing that "I'm hungry" is often "I'm bored" or "I'm thirsty"; and
3. I am no longer terrified of injections! It has been YEARS since I've had a shot and not cried (in fact, it may have never happened). I still can't watch my husband give me my injection, but I peeked out from between my fingers this morning and didn't freak out at all. My goal is to be able to watch the whole procedure calmly.
About Me
- Alysia
- I'm a 33 year old Australian living in Orange County CA. I'm happily married and LOVE my life. My work is really fun - helping people change their lives is as fulfilling as it gets! I'm basically a personal trainer, but I specialize in working with people to help fix their posture and stop their backs from hurting. I also teach Kettlebells - a rigorous workout, tougher than any bootcamp! My struggle is keeping slim, even though I work out more often than not, and I run (sometimes stairs, sometimes miles). I eat well most of the time too. I think I ruined my metabolism with anorexia almost 10 years ago. I recovered quickly emotionally, but my body isn't co-operating. I gain weight in a week and it takes MONTHS to get it back off. So I'm doing this program with Dr Purcell to re-set my metabolism and use my experience to help others. **Go to the "What is Medical Weight Loss?" post for an overview of the program.**
