Day 2 & 3 of VLCD

So,
I wasn't able to post yesterday. Oops! Anyways, here i will summarize how day 2 of vlcd went. I lost 4lbs. however i'm not sure because d. fixed the scale or reteared it to 0. it was reading slightly less. My start weight is slightly higher I guess, 213, and today I'm reading 206. That is 7 lbs lost in days of VLCD. NOt friggn bad. D on the other hands, is breaking rules left and right. he does admit to feeling fuller, but is not stopping the hcg or even trying to follow the protocol strict specific diet. So i have decided to make him am a comparison model to my own. He has not been losing as significantly as I have been. he has lost a lb or so.however, he does report to eating significantly less. My motivation is to prove to him once and for all, this diet has credibility.

That being said, eveybody should not be mistaken, this diet is not easy. It is difficult to not eat, when habitually for the last 30 years of my life, i have been partaking in whatever i please. you see this diet is built around dr. simeon's research, and that research is SPECIFIC. Alhtough it is a 500 calorie diet. it is also a very specific foods only 500 calorie diet. So most of you who think you can eat whatever you want, as long as it is under 500 calories. You are wrong. I am going to do Dr. Simeon's plan exactly. Which is really proving difficult because although you are not technicaly hungry. you definetly feel the cravings. your body i believe is detoxing, especially the first week of vlcd. So I compare it to withdrawals, if any of you have an addiction, you know what i'm talking about. FOOD is a DRUG. Especially nowadays, where food is specifically designed to taste better than it actually is. For example, MSG is highly addictive and completely damaging. Well that being said, food is a drug, and i've been doing "drugs" for a long time. And my body is shocked perhaps, and it is experiencing a withdrawal effect.

I have been experiencing incredible low energy, which has been reported among other hcg dieters. So it is not uncommon to feel different, to feel lackluster. That is how i have been feeling the past couple days. To me it is fascinating to see my body in this state. i know there are good things to come!! Until then, chaio babys!

ps-i have been drinking lots and lots of water....which helps alot!! Water heals!
