Been gone for a second!

Ok yall, so I was MIA for a second, but I am back now. I am officially down 13.2 pounds! I started at 193.4, and now I am at 180.2! WOOHOO!!!!!!!! I am so excited! I even lost 1.6 during Thanksgiving, even though I cheated a little bit. My dad is a chef, and he made Sweet Potato Cheesecake . . .I had to taste it!

Right now I am at a conference for work, and I am being so good. I cooked all my food and brought it with me! I am so serious about this weight coming off! Before my colleague and I got on the road, we went by our office. My other coworkers asked me where was I disappearing to and how much had I lost. They were actually calling me "skinny minnie!" I was so crunk. My nickname in middle school was Sticks, so I have not always been this size. Don't forget . . . I am trying to get my SWAG back!

I am a walking ad for HCG! I tell people about it. I haven't gotten bad reactions at all. My FB inbox stays filled with people asking me questions or encouraging me. I just hope I can get my mom to try it. 

My recipes are still getting me through and I tried Italian Mini Meatballs for Thanksgiving . . . new favorite recipe (will post probably tonight)!!!!

So anyway, life is kinda normal again, but about to swing back to the busy way, but I am really going to get it together and get back here. I did take a couple pics for Thanksgiving so I will get them up here, but more will come soon!

Feeling good . . . 9.2 gone!

So got on the scale this morning and I was down another pound. That makes my total 9.2 so far. I am feeling good about that. My mom and my aunt told me that they can tell that I am losing. I have friends on FB who are asking about HCG, and a few who said that they are about to start after Thanksgiving or at the beginning of the New Year. If I would have know about this all those years that weight loss was a resolution, I would have been at my goal weight 5 years ago! But I am still excited about what is happening to my body. I just ate Tomato Basil Chicken for lunch, and looking forward to my Hamburger later! Yep I said hamburger! If you want the recipe, let me know.  Will probably post later, but gotta catch up on some water.

No loss today

Yesterday, 185.2. Today, 185.2. I did eat well today. I am about to post some of my favorite recipes. Be back tomorrow.

Will I ever see 185.0?

I lost 1.4 yesterday! So excited about it! I drank enough water yesterday, so I am glad that I lost that much. I wish that I could have gotten off that 0.2 lbs to get to 185.0. But anyway, I am down a total of 8.2 pounds. I am very proud of myself.

So quick story, I was talking to my mom and was telling her how munch weight I have lost. She is worried that I am not getting enough calories in a day. She is doing WW and counting points. After we finished our convo, she called me right back, and then asked me this: "Geralyn, are you giving yourself injections?!" I explained to her that I am taking the drops, but it was funny to me. Maybe I can get her to join me in this journey when I start Round 2 in January.

The question is this: Will I ever see 185? Hopefully tomorrow . . .

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.

i cheated

Ok so yesterday, I cheated. I was so mad at myself. I had a few small plates of popcorn and some chocolate mint candy. I was at a meeting with teachers for my job. UGH!!!!! So tried my best to fix the situation by drinking water until I turned into a water faucet. I worked apparently because I loosed 0.4 lbs. That's right, I made it my business to not gain.

I cooked last night for dinner last night, lunch today, and dinner tonight. I was so happy to be back in my own element since I had been out of town. And guess what I did . . .  I LEFT MY LUNCH AT HOME with my drops!!!!!! Everything! WTHeck? I don't get home until late in the afternoon. All I have are my 60 ounces of water. So now I have to fight the urge to buy something to eat. BLAH!!!!!! I will figure something out.

Well just so far . . . I have loosed 6.6 pounds and around 10 inches! I can tell a difference in the way my stomach looks, and I can definitely start to see a waistline. I must stay focused.

TTYL!   Working on the SWAG!!!!!

Today was a test . . . AND I PASSED!!!!

So today was a busy day for me . . . I had to pack up and go out of town, went to a baby shower, and then went to my father's home, oh yeah, HE'S A CHEF!!! I didn't cheat at all, not once!!!! I am so proud of myself! One of my friends held a Hershey kiss in my face and was like "eat it, eat it, you know you want to." I just stared at her; mainly because I didn't want it! YES!!! I love the phrase "nothing tastes better than how skinny feels!" So true! Nighty nighty!
