True enough, but scale's down 0.8 today, so that pumpkin cheesecake I had has not hurt me! Wooohooo...

Hi, Amber. Welcome!

Just picture the scale saying 150 and it will! It helps me.

I've lost almost 31 lbs recently.

You are right to listen to your body and what others want doesn't have to be what you want, so you just do your thing. ")

Congrat's ladies! you are doing GREAT!

Hey, ladies! You both are doing so well!

I agree, Misty, you don't have to beat yourself up every time you splurge a little. I know you will get back on track.

Penny, same goes for you!

I was down 29.8 lbs until TOM reared his ugly head! Now I'm UP 1.2. Well, at least it's just TOM and the scale will go down again soon.

No fuss. No fret!

C25 on pavement? I hope you have good shoes!

You are doing great, Penny. You will get there.

I am down 27.4 lbs today. Yaaay! Down 22" too. But I can't do a 25k... haha.

Thanks, Penny.

I imagine the temptation must be large for you now, finally getting to have things you were not allowed to have before. You will get the hang of it.

Misty! Missed you. Glad to hear you are well. ") And Holidays got NOTHING on us! lol.

Down 17+ lbs now. Stall today thanks to TOM ;P

Take care...

Exercise while on a low cal diet will make you retain water. Sounds like your body is fighting you a bit. Be patient. It will come.

Oh, and I am now down 14.6 lbs! It's not at a 6 size loss but Im pretty happy with it :)

Take care...

I released 3 more pounds :) Makes 10. woooooohoooo.

Congrat's Penny! Am happy for you! Can't wait to buy a smaller size. But I lost over 7lbs so far so I'm on my way too.

Love & Light

Gee, I wonder who funded those double blind tests? Anyway, go to youtube and see all the people who've recorded every stage of their weight loss and read Dr Simeon's manuscript. Sure, Trudeau is a felon but Dr. Simeon was not and he wrote the manuscript over 40 years ago. Trudeau borrowed it but that's beside the point

I'm not hear to convert anyone. I just know people who have done it and so I'm going to go with that and all the personal research I've done which is numerous. For every negative study on this there are many more positive examples. :)

I agree smilbie,

Anyone who says that you are starving on the hcg diet hasnt read Pound and Inches or spoken with anyone of thousands of people who have been cured by this protocol. They need to do research.

Technically, any diet is a form of starvation. So, people in the "just exercise and eat better club" are starving themselves if they are dieting. If the body wants to be fat, it will be or it will fight you with cravings the entire time. It's not a matter of will power as doctors and researchers are becoming more and more convinced of.

Hcg protocol isn't a starvation or a diet because your body is flooded by calories the entire time you're on it. The calories from your fat stores.

I've read up on it and I suggests other do as well. ")

Hola, everyone...

Good luck at weigh in penny!

Hi Misty... glad you're still around;missed ya!

Oooohhhh... don't get me started! Men objectify women and it makes me sick. Having said that, they can't really help it BUT they  can keep it to themselves! What I do when some random guy is checking me out and I don't want to be bothered is give them a dirty look (which you cant do online) or ignore them (which can be perceived as a challenge but they usually get the point.)

You sound just like me. I've had to teach myself to be flattered when men check me out, but there is a limit. I love men, but only the ONE can OGLE me, right?

So, I guess take it as a compliment, but if you dont like it you dont like it. Limits.

Hahah... okay done with my tangent... you ladies keep working hard and take care of you.

Love...

Well, my pouch is alive and well. But I can relate to the boob shrinkage. They're always the first thing I lose when I lose weight, too. :(

That's me Ms. big belly flat chest. Haha. Well, I exaggerate, but I noticed that people who have the pooch have it for good biological reasons. For instance, my ancestors came from a part of the world where wild animal attacks were common but running away wasn't an option. Thus, the reason my body thinks keeping fat on my stomach will protect my vital organs.

If only my body understood that it's 2009 and animals don't attack people anymore. Sigh.

Good Luck.. Don't be tooooo hard on yourself....

Hey all...

Same as Misty... nothing new to report here. I'm being very active and having a great summer so far :)

Luna... I miss you too... hang in there kid... you're looking great.

Penny... people are "funny" that's a nice way of saying it, huh? I've been there many times. People who cannot be happy for me cannot be in my life either. :)

Remember... you can never be fat enough to make someone else slim and you can never be sad enough to make someone else happy.

Blessings to everyone... Love...
