Today is the day!
The low calorie diet for hCG begins today. I spent the past two days loading -- eating anything and everything in sight, so I am pretty tired of food right now. Of course, experience tells me that will be short-lived after a day of eating just 500-800 calories, but I have GOT to get this weight down. Being a SAHM makes dieting a bit harder, because I have opportunity to eat. When I was working, dieting was a little easier because I had work to do, so I couldn't wander to the fridge a thousand times or had to get snacks for my boys. So I figured what I need is some busy work!
Last year, I started learning Korean because although I am half, I never learned and I'd like to go visit my relatives at some point and figured learning the language couldn't hurt. I let that fall to the wayside but now I think studying it on my own could be just the busy work I need. I've also started homeschool preschool with my 2.5 year old. He'll be going to school next year so it can't hurt to give him a boost. I'm hoping with that on my plate in between playing with him and my 6 year old that, hopefully, food won't be so much of a focus.
I'm dusting off my Wii Fit Plus game as well. And my Just Dance 2 game. I do not move nearly enough so, although this is starting small, it's starting. Water is going to be troublesome. I hate water and my goal is to drink half my body weight in ounces daily. I know I could doctor it up with Crystal Light or something, but I need to get into the habit of drinking plain water. Last time I did hCG and was drinking water, I have to say my skin was so much healthier and smoother. I will allow myself a little squeeze of lemon, but that's it.
Here's hoping to a great start for me and best of luck to you all who are also on the journey. We can do this!
