Done with HCG (for now)

Well, I am off HCG and back to the way I was eating before. I've been off for about 3-4 days I guess, and I know I was still supposed to follow the 500 calorie diet for 2-3 days after the drops but of course I quit on a weekend and didn't get to follow it like I planned. Oh well. I am sure I gained some back. I weighed today and had gained most back and was only like 2 pounds under where I was before starting the drops. I am not logging that though, because I did have Mexican food last night and a big drinking night the night before, so I'm hoping it is a temporary gain.

Maybe some time in the future when I am in a stable place I will try it again. It was too time consuming and too much trouble for now. It was nice while it lasted, I guess, but I am kinda glad to be done with it.

I will continue with logging meals, and I know I haven't updated my weight-loss ticker in a while, so I will either update it tomorrow or wait until the weekend on my usual weigh-in day and log it then.


I hope every one had a wonderful weekend and a pleasant mother's day!


OH, and I am also down another pant size, and shirt size! This weekend I wanted a new outfit for a party I was going to. I bought a pair of Capri's, a pair of super-short shorts that I may never even wear but I felt confident that I fit into them and was like, I'm getting these! Lol. I also got a size LARGE shirt! What?! Omg! That's a size 12/14. I don't think I've ever, at least in the last 10 years, worn a shirt that size. It was so exhilarating. I've worn a size 2x for the last few years...so to get a shirt that the size didn't start with a number or an X was a really, really exciting feeling. :)
