HCG 4

Well, I was worried about binge eating, only to find that on this diet, I lost four tenths of a pound! Okay... I really did the fatty stuff thing, too; I had Chicken McNuggets, sauerkraut pierogi, bacon, egg and cheese strata, mahi mahi with melted butter, tortellini with pesto and alfredo sauce - I was nauseated from second one. I cannot believe I didn't gain ten pounds.

Today was day one of the diet, and as I suspected, hunger is 90% mental. The day started off okay, only feeling that "weird" feeling (I haven't put my finger on it... what the weirdness is), did lunch, which was fine, but now (from about 4:00 on) I am looking for snacks. Crazy. I am drinking a lot of herbal tea, and trying to force down water so that nothing goes wrong. I am mentally thinking about dinner, and about more Wasa bread than I am allowed...

HCG 1

I created this because I have been trying fruitlessly to get in better shape... well, get in any shape at all actually. I was walking/jogging to try to lose weight, which did not work (but my legs look better).

I still jog, until today... I have decided to try the HCG diet, and this is day one. I have to scale back the exercise to do the diet, which frightens me, but we will see how this goes.

Emotional: I am a wreck...

Physical: Weigh 332.8 pounds (not the fattest I have ever been), measurements 43, 45.5, 64. I am ready for this...

Food: Gorge day one, wondering how I am going to eat badly after mostly avoiding bad stuff. I have to be careful not to get ill, as I am a gastric bypass patient.
