HCG DIET DAY 22

Today was a better day. Last night was a night where if I was allowed, I would have eaten a bowl of Peanutbutter Panic ice cream and chocolate chip cookies. It's called emotional eating. The HCG Diet does not leave any room for emotional eaters.

My guess is that if you stay on the diet for a long enough period of time then you will gradually overcome this addiction. For me, I will have to hope that I can keep things under control. I won't be on the diet for the full 40 days. Our last day of the VLCD is day 30 for us. We'll be starting our maintenance phase on July 1st.

Today we had to eat salmon and turkey instead of the usual meats. We have run out of our HCG Diet food and money to buy more. That is part of the stress that's urging me to wish for my emotional eating foods. We are both students and the financial aid for our classes hasn't come in it's been very frustrating and stressful. So if you know that your life will be stressful when you do the HCG Diet, our blog is the one to follow. Our life has been absolute stress! My posts' reflect that perfectly.

My current frustration is that I haven't lost any substantial weight for several days. Almost a week actually. So that is really frustrating! We borrowed Leif's parents' elliptical trainer today. I will use it for at least 15 minutes every night. Hopefully this will jump start my metabolism. I am still breastfeeding my toddler in the morning and at night. I'm wondering if that has kept my weight loss to a slower speed. I'm glad I've kept enough milk though!

So, tonight, I am alright with the HCG Diet. I just REALLY hope that my weight loss is a large amount within the next 7 days!! Here's Hoping!!!
