It has been a while

So, I haven't been very good about writing.....I have been busy with work and grad school, but am happy to report that I have 11 more pounds to go and I will have reached my goal! I didn't loose any weight this week, due to being on my period, but was surprised I didn't show a gain due to not taking my water pill (I came down with a cold and didn't want to be dehydrated). I have been continuing on the low carb diet and drink as much water as possible. I have also been getting a combo B-12 shot instead of the regular one, twice weekly. I started Velashape today, and am hopeful that with some more hard work I can reduce my cellulite and firm up my loose skin. I hope to be at my goal in another couple weeks, so I will be sure to post pics and another blog entry when the time comes :)

8 weeks in and seeing fantastic results!

 So, I haven't written in a while, but felt like I had something to share! I am below 170, which hasn't happened in who knows how long. I had my weigh in this morning and I was afraid I might have gained or lost very little and there were those magic number 167.8. I am thrilled! Not only did I not gain I lost 3.2 more pounds! I have 32.8 more to go. I am excited to increase my exercising, which I have only been walking and hiking. I need to include some light weight lifting to build tone. I am fitting in a size 10, which is also great! It is almost scary how fast the weight has come off, but so exciting. As someone who generally gets sick all the time, I am thrilled to report that I have not been sick since I began this. I think the B-12 vitamins and shots have something to do with that! I have a long time til I want to be at my goal and at the rate I am loosing I should be there soon. I can't wait to fit back in my size 5 jeans and not have a wobble under my arms when I wave.......it will happen, I am determined for it to!

2 Week Update

So, in two weeks I have lost 10 pounds! My Dr. says I am loosing too fast, but I have been eating well, cutting those horrible carbs and drinking tons of water. I hope to feel good enough to hit the gym in the next few weeks. I am not looking forward to feeling my flab bounce up and down while I run.....YUCK! So far, so good. I am super excited and can't wait til I can fit in my skinny jeans!

Today is the first day of the rest of my life.

Hello Everyone!
I have just started a weight loss plan using B-12 shots, B-12 vitamins, water pills and Phendimetrazine Tartrate 35mg. This is through a company called Before and After. They are located in So Cal and are very reasonable, so if you want their info, let me know! I earn a free week for everyone I get to sign up.

 I have only taken one Phen so far, but plan to start tomorrow, taking one pill in the morning and one in the early afternoon. I am also going to go grocery shopping for some low carbs options, as I am realizing that most everything I eat has a ton of carbs! I am very excited by the results that I have been reading. I have also started walking in the evenings and plan to head to the gym very soon as well.

I hope to reach my goal by my 30th birthday, which is in May. I am looking forward to hearing about everyone's personal experiences.
