I am pregnant

Well, as much as I wanted a baby, I am a little bummed, cause I wanted to lose weight first, and I was finally motivated and determined. I guess God had other plans.

This is not the end for me. I am determined not to blow up like a balloon just because I am pregnant. I am still eating right and will continue, and I plan on getting back into a good workout ruitene. And after the baby comes, and when I am done nursing, I can always give it another go.

Thank you to all of you out there that followed my blog and supported me thru this journey.

Hmmm

Well, I did have to stop....I was so weak I could not function. Either one of two things is happening....either my body is still immune to the HCG, or I am pregnant. I think it is the later. I will have to wait a few days then test to be sure.....right now I am testing positive on all tests, so we will see if that is the case even in a couple of days. That would definitly explain why my body was not okay with the 500 cal diet.
I will let you all know when I find out.

Good start

Today's weight is 160.0, so that is a loss of 2.4 pounds, and a total loss of 8 pounds in the first two days. I'd say that is a good start. I am a little concerned....when I got up this morning, I was so weak and shaky and lightheaded I could hardly function. By the time I drank a bunch of water and tea and ate an apple, and took 2 potassium pills, I am feeling a bit better, but still weak and shaky. My mind is finally motivated enough to do this, and I am not craving anything...now I just hope my body will cooperate. I thought I gave myself a long enough break to correct any immunity issues.....guess we will see.

Day 1 on VLCD

Okay all, today is the day...first day of the diet. My refridgerator is stocked with fresh apples and grapfruit and lettuce, and my freezer is stocked with individual pieces of chicken and beef. I am READY!!!
I really do NOT want to report my starting weight, but that wouldn't be fair to all of you, so here it goes....I weigh a whopping 168.0 this morning. If you don't remember, I was down to 131, so I am very dissapointed with myself, but that is the cold hard truth.
Ohhhhh and here is a little secret just for you, my readers....
I have been wanting another baby badly..... but hubby has been saying no....weeeeelllllll, last night he made me a deal....he said when I get down to 120 then we can talk about it!!! WOO HOO now THAT is motivation for me. Now whenever I want that cookie, I will just ask myself "would I rather eat this cookie or would I rather have a baby." So, I have 48 pounds to lose before we "talk", which means 2 rounds more than likely, depending on how fast things move.
Well, that is all for now....if you are out there, and still reading my blog, please let me know with a comment.....also, I could use all the encouragement that anyone is willing to give!
Thanks all....here we go on this journey together.....
