I am still here and I'm starting soon!

Just wanted to check in and let the HCG Challengers know that I will be starting after my sons graduation on May 9th. Between the 4 days of dinners and parties plus the travel, I felt that it would really not be a good start. Although I tried to follow the 500 calorie diet without using HCG this week and as you can imagine... simply impossible! Starvation is not the way to go! I am very curious to experience the diet while using the HCG. The anticipation is killing me. I have been following fellow challengers and it sound like a big success for everyone. Hopefully I will be on your coat tails soon with big weight loss numbers. I will be blogging much more as I get to the "D" day!

Not sure what to do!

Good Evening. Decisions... decisions... decisions! I received the supplies for the injections today and now I have to make a decision. When should I start?? I am leaving on Sunday for a trip to New England and it will be very difficult to start the injections and diet while traveling. I don't want to start and not follow the diet exactly so I am postponing my load until my return.  I thought that I would be starting the diet much sooner than this... so now I feel that in order to be successful, I need to put off the start of the diet until I return home. I am very frustrated but I have decided that this is in my best interest. I have set my sights on achieving my goals and I will not let myself nor the Drugdelivery team down!  I will therefore start the load and injections when I return next Sunday. Everyone else will be well underway but I will catch up... that is a promise! So I will be checking in, blogging and I will also use this time to eat as healthy, organic and consciously as possible so that on my return, I will be focused. Like all the challengers, I have made up my mind that this time I will not fail! I have been reading everyones stories and loving them all!  Keep up the good work and I will be on board soon. I have waited this long to find the new me... I guess I can wait another week.

The wait is nearly over!

Good Morning Everyone! 

Yesterday I received my hCG! I am just waiting on the supplies to arrive and I should be on my way. I must say that Drugdelivery.com has been so wonderful to work with. When I started seeing other challengers receiving their products, and I couldn't even track my order, I began to feel like the end had arrived before the beginning! Well yesterday the supplies arrived and Tammy and her team were super about answering my questions about when and how the product would arrive. Thanks Drugdelivery team for your help and thanks for the opportunity to challenge myself to this life changing event. 

I am nervous. I am anxious. I am curious. I am doubtful. But... I am ready to face the fears of this diet to reach a place I haven't been in many years. So I will now start my journey... hopefully within the next couple of days. I have not read very much about the process but I do read the blogs on this site and others, so I feel I am somewhat prepared to begin. I think once I have the supplies in front of me and the mixing begins, I will relax a bit.  Sounds like the other challengers who have begun are moving along nicely with their weight loss. Good luck everyone! I will post again after the supplies arrive. I did not do any herbal cleanses and I haven't really eaten organic foods. Maybe I will try to do a couple days of this while I am in a holding pattern. I also need to do a starting measurement... oh no!  I will be back!!
