This is my story!

Good Morning! It is early in the morning which is actually my best time of day. I am thrilled that I have been chosen to be in the HCG Challenge. I really don't know much about the process but hopefully I will learn fast and lose fast! My story is that I am a wife and mother for the past 26 years. I have been an at home mom for 19 of those 26 years. How I got here... I guess it was the slow weight gain of eating and drinking whatever I liked when I was younger, having 3 children and being busy with the family so that I didn't make time for taking care of me. I am 5' 7 1/2" and have gained and lost the same few pounds for the last 10 years. I start every Monday and fall off the new eating program by Wednesday. I have slowly gained a good 40 lbs over my ideal weight. I am tired of thinking about my weight all the time and I was looking to finally take off this weight once and for all. A friend of mine who is on the second go around with HCG has lost 40 lbs and is looking to lose another 20 in the next few months. Every time I checked in with her, she was down another 5 or 6 pounds. I was jealous but scared. I tried to talk her out of it, then I found that I was asking her about the process, then I was contemplating the pros and cons to trying this method. She sent me the link to apply for this challenge and although I was doubtful that I would be chosen, I sat down one night in desperation and wrote my story. Surprise, surprise!!! I am now blogging with others in the HCG Challenge. I feel nervous, anxious and ignorant about so much, but I am sure I will be successful because I am ready to make this weight go away for good.
