Who We Are

We are Leif and Lena. I (Lena) am the primary voice of the blog. Leif is the fun side of the blog. This blog tells about our journey as a husband and wife team following the HCG Diet. We are both 30 years old. I am 5 feet tall and Leif is just over 6 feet tall. I have been pregnant 4 times. Leif's body simply had sympathy pains that went along with mine.:) We both need to lose about 20-30 pounds, 40 would be Awesome! I am also a Holistc Health Practitioner (Student) with GCNM and I am following this diet with the "Science Project" mentality. We hope you enjoy reading about, and following our journey. Please feel free to be a cheerleader!

HCG DIET DAY 8

Well, unfortunately today was pretty much a drag... literally. I have a strange surge of alertness and energy around 5:00AM if the baby wakes me up around that time. I actually find it hard to fall back to sleep. But then I sleep in and am dragging much of the day. I literally couldn't concentrate or focus on the homework that I needed to do today. I felt better towards the end of the day. But that may have been because I just walked away from the computer and tried not to think about it anymore.

I read today that you aren't supposed to feel so run down while on the HCG Diet. I'm not sure what's wrong with me? I'm making sure that I reach exactly 500 calories a day. My vitamin B hasn't arrived yet. I'm hoping that will help!

We watched a movie tonight and my very first and natural instinct was to decide what dessert we would have during the movie. It was hard.

It's strange, I am actually too nervous to quite now. I've heard that people who have quite early end up gaining weight faster then before they started HCG. That is not an option for me. I told myself that if I did this I would do it right, and completely. Now I just have to dig deep into the reserves and make it.

Honestly, it's not the lack of fun food or the restricted calories that are the most difficult for me. It's the lack of energy and mind power that I have and the requirement that I have that isn't being met. I pray that I will gain strength soon so I can accomplish all that I need to...
