The Waiting Game

Well, I went to my consultation for the hCG diet.  I will have to WAIT about a week before I start the injections.  The first three days I can eat like I regularly do.  Day four through fifty I can only have certain foods and only a total of 500 calories a day.  I will use this blog as a daily log of my weight and the food I eat.  I was told that if I stick to the diet that I should lose about 1/2 an pound to a pound a day.  I would be very happy to be down thirty pounds by the end of the 50 days.  I will take a six week break, then start again maybe with another fifty days or only 25 days depending on how much weight I lose.  During the six week break I can workout and eat more calories.  I am very anemic so that causing me to be very tired.  Iron levels should be about 60 and my are 13.  I am going to be taking iron and a multivitamin.  The hCG is infused with Vitamin B-12 to give me a little energy because I won't be taking in enough food for energy.  I won't write again until I start the injections...hopefully soon!
