It didn't work

I did hcg for 2 weeks, I did the drops not the injections.  So for those that don't know how it works, you take hcg under your tongue 3 times a day and you only eat 500 calories. You are supposed to lose 1-3 pounds a day, which I lost 6 pounds in 3 days.  Then I went to a Healthy Women's Expo with my grandma and would you believe it there was NO SALAD!! At a Healthy Women's Expo!!!  Weird. So I did the best I could and the next day I gained 2 pounds, so that day I did an apple day where you only eat 6 apples for the day.  The next day I had lost the 2 pounds, so I went back to the 500 calories and then I gained 5 pounds!! I was careful, I didn't cheat at all, and I didn't lose weight, so I stopped doing it because only eating 500 calories is HARD! The only person I know who has done hcg and kept the weight off is my aunt Kim aka Auntie Princess, so I got my hcg from the same person that she gets hers from, I was very disappointed that it didn't work...

So now I'm doing Cheat Your Way Thin. Its basically carb cycling. So far, its going well. I've been doing it for a week and I'm down 5 pounds. I want to be able to wear some of my clothes to Disneyland and not have to wear pants... On that note, my grandparents are getting rid of A LOT of stuff, including my prom dress, my cheerleading uniform (I saved it from the donation box), and my wedding skirt that I wore under my dress to make it poofy.  My cheerleading skirt can fit on one of my thighs, I'm not kidding, my thigh is now the same circumference that my waist was 15 years ago.  Depressing, very depressing.

Training sessions

Andy has been doing training sessions twice a month for almost a year now.  So he took me to the last one and his trainer trained me, and holy crap it HURT. So we decided that I'm going to do training sessions once a month for the next year, I'm excited but a little scared of how badly I will hurt after the sessions.  Hopefully it will get better and easier and won't be that bad... I can hope. I'm itching to do a race, but I'm itching even more to fit into all those size 12 pants and capris in my closet.  Here's to hoping that training sessions will get me there, and possibly running a little faster, I also have a goal of being able to run an 8 minute mile before I do another race.  Its all for my health, right? After all I have my 4 boys to think about.

I think its creepy.....

Today I went to the gym and ran on the treadmill. There was almost an entire row of open treadmills in front of me, yet I had someone come and use the treadmill on each side of me. I got there first and I put 2 treadmills between me and the next person. Doesn't everyone know gym etiquette? You always leave an open treadmill between you and the next person. I guess if it bugs me enough I should just move to one of the open treadmills, but still, I was there first!!! I mean, I know I'm irresistible but do you have to come run right next to me while I'm trying to get my workout in? ;) 

I think I better give up chocolate

So I never thought I would be able to give up caffeine but I did, but now I think I've replaced caffeine with chocolate. So I should probably give chocolate up to. I bought Easter candy, yeah its almost all gone and yeah I've come close to polishing an entire bag off by myself. Not good. Not good at all. I think chocolate will be harder to break up with and quit than caffeine was, but I gotta try. 

Do I Dare?? And just because I'm chubby doesn't mean I don't know stuff!!

Do I dare to Zumba?? IDK the class tomorrow morning is a step n zumba, my calves seriously hurt SO BAD, and still do, but not so much now.  I've never done Zumba do I dare try to do both?

So since my calves were killing me I decided to swim laps today, and when I was done I went into the sauna, and there was a tiny older woman with a strapless yellow swimsuit on, and her hair was all crazy, then she started talking to me, she is from Korea and kind of hard to understand, but from what I could gather, she has been a member of Gold's since they opened, I need to go to the gym and do the elliptical and weights and sauna  everyday and I will lose lots of weight "real fast".  Oh, and I shouldn't swim everyday because it will ruin my hair.  She was funny, but then I went and got into the hot tub and she came in and told me the same thing, TWICE, just in a different order..... I got it, I got it....  I know a thing or two about fitness and working out, I have after all been doing it for a while now.

My husband is my hero, he got a vasectomy today, it makes me SO SAD, but I know its just not safe for me to have another kid.  He is doing well, he's never had more than his wisdom teeth pulled so he was nervous, but it was a snap.  The doctor recommended NOTHING for the next 48 hours, and nothing over 10 lbs, the baby weighs 11 :( so he can hold him on the couch but he can't get up in the night with him - double :(
