HCG, Advocare and the last 4 months

Alittle over four months ago, I decided to move my family from the west coast of Florida to the east coast. A new opportunity called and I was ready for the challenge.

It was at that point that I decided to make a commitment to get healthy and finally take the baby weight off that had plagued me since the birth of my son in early 2011.

So far my results have been fabulous. I started out my journey to health with the HCG diet. For those of you that don’t know anything about it, this can be a difficult diet to start out with. With an HCG supplement or injection by a doctor, you limit your calorie intake to 500 calories a day and the HCG consumes the rest in fat stores. The materials boast a 1-2 lb loss per day but I didn’t see those kind of results. I lost 19 lbs in 3 weeks. A great way to kick start my weight loss and help take the burden off my body to get back in the gym.

In July, I purchased and completed the Advocare 24 day challenge. I had seen many of my friends pursue the challenge with great results. I was fortunate to take off another 7 lbs and over 12 inches in combination with this diet and regular exercise. My membership to Planet Fitness has been a godsend.

Since then I have released another 7 lbs and have been feeling really good. My daughter and I are training to complete a half marathon the end of October and look forward to even more pounds melting away. I’ve lost a total of 35lbs since relocating in April and can’t wait to bust back into “one” derland. I’ll hopefully get to report that soon!
