Never Perfect and Always Under Construction

Went over with my carbs by just a little, bit not too bad. Didn’t get in the full amount of calories, protein or fat that my app suggests. It’s really hard to get all that in without going over the carbs! #keto #woe #newme #doingthisforme (at Plainfield, Illinois)

Started my new way of eating today! After research and studying I am excited to start this new journey! Check out the Netflix documentary The Magic Pill to understand more why I am so determined to change my life and my way of eating! Breakfast was 3 eggs and 2 slices of bacon! Yum! #keto #ketolifestyle #doingthisforme #healthierme

I’ve been MIA lately but I will be back full time next week. I’ve been watching a friend’s son and it’s really gotten in the way of trying to focus on me. Starting next week I’m going to try living the Keto lifestyle since I already know my body can’t handle carbs. My journey will be shared with you all. The good, the bad and the ugly! #dietjourney #doingitforme #healthierme #letsdothis #keto

I’ve been gone a bit. Crazy life stuff going on. Got to visit my new grandson, found out I’m going to have a niece soon (First girl in the family around here since me!) and other emotional issues. I’m back up to close to@my starting weight but in all accountability it’s my fault. I haven’t been strong so now it’s time to get back on track! #28dayjumpstart #icandothis #losingweight #doingitforme

I am so infatuated with my Little Peanut’s Little Peanut!! My grandson, Kingston Reign is here! He has stolen all our hearts! 💙

This has been me the last week! I need to get ahold of my emotions and face the problem! Need a good sit down talk with my son and lay it out there instead of holding it all in and building up to this point of emotional eating! I’m gonna get back on track! I can do this! #emotionaleating #hcgjourney #icandothis #losingweight

A little Friday humor. Sorry I’ve been MIA...busy week plus still sick = no social media time!

So I was sick Sat. and Sun. And unfortunately I turned to comfort food once I was able to keep food down. I’m not weighing myself until later this week. I want to become a little less dependent on the scale and feel more confident in my food choices and my exercising. I know I have probably gained this weekend but I’m not letting it get me down! #hcgdiet #hcgresults #hcgjourney #losingweight #losingweightfeelinggreat #doingitforme

Woke up to a 1.8 drop. Starting to feel better! I’ve got two more injection dates and then 3 more VLC days and on to phase 3. #hcgdiet #hcgjourney #hcgresults #losingweight #losingweightfeelinggreat #doingthisforme

2.1 loss. I’m relieved but still had wanted to lose more than this. 3 more injection days on this round. Even though I didn’t get where I wanted to on this round I know I will get there eventually! Thank you all for your support! You all are amazeballs!!!! ♥️ #hcgdiet #hcgjourney #hcgsupport #losingweight #losingweightfeelinggreat #doingthisforme

The HCG diet is not always easy. You read all over that the weight just melts off of you but that is not entirely true. There are ups and downs. There are losses and sometimes there are gains. If you let the gains get to you, you are led to cheat days. I’ve had a gain and it frustrates me but I know deep down that I can’t let it get to me. I need to keep my head up and keep moving forward. I am not just trying to lose weight I am getting rid of it for good. This journey is a tough one, full of ups and downs. The important thing is not to let the downs keep you down!

So very frustrated. Wondering if my HCG is any good anymore. Maybe it was the half of avocado I allowed myself last night. Whatever it is I need to keep my head up and keep working towards my goal! #hcgdiet #hcgjourney #hcgresults #losingweight #doingthisforme

Dinner is Tuna Fish with onions and Super Yellow Mustard (mustard that has tumeric abs mustard seeds in it) cucumbers and half an avocado. It was delish! #hcgdiet #hcgjourney #hcgresults #losingweight #losingweightfeelinggreat #doingthisforme

Trying not to get discouraged. Nothing worth anything ever came easy though. I need to have patience and remember I will get to my goal eventually! #hcgdiet #hcgresults #hcgsupport #hcgjourney #losingweight #losingweightfeelinggreat #doingitforme

Gaining, especially after a good hard workout, can be really frustrating. But what really happened is that the muscles have a bunch of tears and water retention from the inflammation is causing the weight gain. I should see a drop in a couple days so I need to stay positive and not freak out! #hcg #hcgdiet #hcgjourney #hcgresults #losingweight #losingweightfeelinggreat #doingthisforme

So...I took the TurboKick class tonight! I made it through the class! I’m so exhausted but proud of myself! Not only did I do the class but a few hours before the class I still went to the gym and got a mile and a half walk in too!! I have a feeling I’m going to be sore tomorrow, sore but happy! #hcg #hcgdiet #hcgjourney #hcgresults #losingweight #losingweightfeelinggreat #doingthisforme

I’m getting back on track today after two days of being off track. What surprised me most is how yucky my body felt not eating clean! By the end of the night each night I just felt blah! Tonight I am going to try to take a TurboKick class! We will see how that goes, I’m nervous I won’t be able to keep up and will look like a total fool! LOL! #hcg #hcgdiet #hcginjections #hcgresults #hcgjourney #losingweight #losingweightfeelinggreat #doingitforme
