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 DAY10

My Vitamin B arrived today. That's about as good as it gets.

My body is rebelling against the HCG Diet. It is as if a Mama Bear has come to visit in my place. To me, this is not acceptable.

We will evaluate how things are going on day 23. That is the minimum days for the traditional HCG Diet. So I will do it until then and then decide.

I sure wish I had this energy and good mood during the day! I'm hoping that the two rounds of Vitamin B are kicking in and helping me. I really need to find a happy medium as you can see from my post earlier this afternoon.

I found an HCG Blog where the lady warned to watch your lean body mass while on the HCG Diet. I don't have a scale or the knowledge at the moment to watch the muscle pound for pound. But my scale does show muscle percentage. So I will watch that closely.

I have heard the HCG Diet referred to as a starvation diet twice in the last couple of days. Yesterday, it bugged me. Today, feeling like I did I agreed. I believe that it is somewhere in between. At this point, I will not recommend the HCG Diet for more then 1 round. I honestly don't have a CLUE how people can go more then one round. But from what I have read, my body just follows along with the possible side effects. Bummer!

I keep pondering about early pregnancy symptoms and the HCG Diet and how they are realted. So far, the first ten weeks of pregnancy for me are HADES! I get Very Very ill and am hospitalized at least once during that time. I have had people including myself joke that I am allergic to pregnancy. I am starting to wonder if I really do react to the HCG Diet just like I would react if I only had this much of the hormone when I am pregnant? It's an interesting thought...
