My Journey So Far

in Success Stories
Alright, so, I'm nowhere near where I want to be just yet, but I really feel like sharing.
As of current, I have lost 55 lbs and counting.

I realize that posting on a public forum is bound to get some kind of snarky comments, but please... let's resist the temptation, just this once. Ok? Thanks.


1 year ago, I entered the HCG weightloss contest. Today, I had to submit my results. If you're interested in reading my entire entry (it's a bit lengthy) feel free to read it here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1MUAHv3kC9pmE2iKfTU4s9DpXmsFIiizf05lP2mPDPVM/edit?usp=sharing

I'm currently 290 lbs with a goal weight of 160-175 (depending on how I feel once I get there). My starting weight was 345.
I'm still 'fat' but I feel amazing and I can't wait to show off more progress in the months to come!

    It thrills me that I was able to help, even just a little bit! Losing weight is HARD work and sticking together makes for the best results. I'm living proof!

    The HCG Diet is a hard hard diet, I do agree. My body was not fit to cope with the full on diet, as I explained in my entry.
    As of current, I do not follow the HCG diet, but they did help me take a look at how to eat properly and for that I just can't thank them enough!

    Thank you. I am quite proud of this actually and my 'fat' comment wasn't meant to put myself down. :)

    I applaud you for being honest with the contest. Most people would have just made stuff up in order to win. Now you are on a healthy path and doing good for your family. Congrats! :smile:
