HCG 4 week challenge!!! :)

And my favorite...........

I started my HCG the same weekend as this thread started and I did not realize but here is my progress so far. Day one of Loading I weighed 209 pounds after loading I was up to 215 (holy cow) and today Sept 23 I am down to 207. I am pretty happy with that!

Hi guys! I am writing this with a somewhat heavy heart at the moment. I am unfortunately going to put a halt/pause on my diet. Well, I guess you can say stop it for now, and begin again on about Oct. 15th ish (yes I know that is when we were supposed to finish our challenge, but you guys keep going!). My husband just accepted a job offer yesterday to go to Afghanistan. He will be leaving my daughter and I on Oct 11th. He will be gone for at least one year. I really thought that I would have more time to prepare for this, but turns out I do not. He has done this before, he was in Iraq for 22 months about 5 years ago. However we did not have a daughter then. I am having a hard time dealing with this :brokenheart: :brokenheart: :sad: Honestly, I have had more anxiety attacks in the last 24 hours than I have in my life. I do not want him to leave, but I am trying to support what he wants to do. He even joked around with me a couple of days ago that he is losing weight because of my diet. And his stomach is all messed up because I am not cooking my "good ol home cooked meals" for him anymore. Instead of cooking for him and taking the time to make something seperate for myself I would rather spend every second I can with him. I know some others might be able to pull off this diet with this, but I cant. I am just not emotionally set for it at the moment. And I would like to be able to take him to all of his restaurants that he likes to eat before he goes without having to splurge on my diet. So I figure I will just have a fresh new start after he is gone. It will be easier too so no one is tempting me with foods I cannot have. :blushing: So, I am not just giving up.... I am choosing to spend quality time with my husband before he goes. And once he leaves, I will be even more determined to lose the weight I need to lose so when he sees me again he will faint :smooched: :bigsmile: :blushing: :laugh: I still would like to get on here and check on everyone and support you guys! Hopefully some of you will still be around in 3 weeks when I come back I have found some great people on here that I want to stay in touch with, and look forward to being back on my diet. But for now, time with family first :flowerforyou:


Yes I know that I just copied what I put in our other one... but just in case... LOL I still want to be on here to support you guys. And if anyone is wanting to do another challenge at the time this one ends, I will be starting back again! I just hope I dont gain everything I have lost so far. :ohwell: But you guys are all doing awsome! You will all be such skinny bi#^hes when I get back :bigsmile: :laugh: :flowerforyou:
