Dieting Sucks

So, when I couldn't get down from 170 lbs. I was devistated. I heard about the HCG diet and it was sort of exciting to listen to. 28-48 days (choose one), HCG (pregnancy hormone) and 500 calories a day of proteins and fruits/veggies. Loosing up to 3 lbs a day. Sounded awesome to me, and very doable.

I signed up. And started with enthusiasm.

So far, I've lost 15 lbs, it's day 10 today and I just couldn't get past the 500 calorie thing today. Maybe the HCG didn't quite work this morning for some reason. I was going mad. Didn't cheat off the diet, but boy did I ever want to. Didn't do it. My friend ended up stopping by and she's been trying so hard to loose weight for a year and is stalled. She asked for advice and we went to the store to read labels on food and talk about her calorie ins and outs. Exhausting, to be honest. I want to help her, and I probably will.

Good news? I'm in my size medium shirt and the medium pants are falling off my hips.

I'm onto cracking into the massive amount of editing that I need to do for the month of June and my poor friends on facebook might be wondering why I haven't responded to their inquiries through my inbox there. I'm just a mess.

Portrait of Hope is growing up, Rwanda trip is coming up and I can't think straight with keeping my details.

So onto that, and time to stop spouting at the fingertips.

Mom's here, gotta go. :)
