Net Change -8.6 lbs

Net Change -8.6 lbs

This is so cool. I signed up for this because I really wanted to change my body and hopefully change my metabolism. Obviously weight loss was assumed. However, I never truly believed that it could happen so fast. Talk about motivation.

I measured myself a couple of days ago. I hesitated to do so but in the end decided that I might want the information later. I have been reading in some HCG forums that at some point a stall occurs. This can last up to 12 days and that most of the advice given was geared toward a continual loss of inches. So I thought if I measured my self now, I might need it in the future to get through a stall.

Major highlight the first week. Getting some previous tight pants on... easily! I have these pants I that I haven't worn in a while because they were pretty tight. When I do wear them I have to go through a little routine to stretch them out before I can button them up. You might know this one, the squat stretch. Pull the pants over your hips, stuff in all the extra flab, do 1 or 2 deep squats (use a piece of furniture to pull your self up), suck in your breath nice and deep, hold it, and button. Well, I was preparing to start the process when I realized that they seemed looser than before. So, when I tried to button, I didn't even have to hold my breath. I was so cool. Now these pants are a long way from baggy, but I am getting there.
