My HCG Journey: Getting My SWAG Back!: Ahh...a day.

Ahh...a day.

So today was a good day. I just had dinner: savory baked chicken and garlic spinach. It was good. I am about to get ready to take my final dose of drops for the evening. I have had close to 90 ounces of water today, so I am hoping for a big reward in the morning. It felt good to be back on schedule today with my food. I am going to get my dessert, which will be grapefruit with truvia and stevia. We will see what will happen in the morning. It didn't take overnight to put this weight on, and it won't come off overnight.
