Day 12

Weight: 224. Down a pound!

Today I added fresh squeezed lemon juice to my morning water. I only used 1/2 the lemon and will use the other half when I get home from work. I'm not a big lemon fan but I heard it may help shed pounds.

I teased my husband this morning that he's a saboteur because he put his leftover stick of butter right on top of my hcg dropper/syringe in the fridge!!! He said he didn't do it on purpose - yeah, just like he didn't eat that tasty apple pie right in front of me last night on purpose. ;) I still love you, Dear. I'm just teasing. Really, he has been wonderful. I do not know how to grill so he's been grilling my meat on Sundays so I have all my stuff ready for the week. I couldn't do this without him.

So instead of counting down days (I have 28 left), I decided that it sounds MUCH better (and shorter) to say that I have 4 weeks left. I can do this. I can DO this! I AM doing this!!! I haven't ordered my 26 day refill from the site yet because they are about to release a 50% off coupon once they reach 100k "likes". I'll order a 26 day refill to finish this round and then my next two 40-day rounds. 50% off! Yeah, Baby!!!

I finally came up with a story to tell my co-workers. I just explained that I'm doing a new plan where I eat little meals throughout the day, which I am. That way they stop clicking their tongues at me saying, "That's not much to eat, Beth!!!" when they see my plate of chicken and cucumber slices.

WOW 50% off how cool is that? I order my 1st 40 day round, then at check-out I had a 40% off code and I turned right around and order a 2nd 40 day supply. So... should I have my hcg drops in the refrigerator? I was thinking I read somewhere they didn't need to be refrigerated? (HELP!!!) CONGRATS to your additional 1 pound loss, that makes me so happy for you! So.... How much is that total for you in 12 days? Have you done any measuring yet?
I totally believe your hubby didn't mean to place the butter where he did, I could see my hubby (Jamie) doing that exact same move, without thinking a thing about it... eve down to eating the apple pie, only Jamie, would be sipping a large Strawberry milkshake from Sonic! (LOL)
But... I have no doubt he will do everything in his power to make sure he supports me. He's been telling me for weeks now...."You know, this HCG diet your doing is not for me,I'm in love with you just the way you are!" I don't see how it can get any better then that! ( he's such a sweetie....I know!) Great idea on telling your co-workers too. I am a school bus driver, so... I only see my co-workers 20 minutes per day while we're sitting around chit~chatting waiting for school to dismiss, but, even wit that 20 minutes, in a matter of a couple weeks I'm sure I'll be ask....Are you loosing weight, and what's your secret to it? (LOL) I'll let you know when it happens and what I come up with! (lol) Until tomorrow my friend.....Stay strong & focused, and enjoy every bite of your food! LOL! =)

I'm so excited for you to start tomorrow!!! I just read your blog but I can't comment from work for some reason so I will have to comment from home. I'm at 14 pounds down! We have wonderful husbands. :) Oh, and I'd put your drops in the fridge. They say to store in a cool dry place and recommend the fridge. I will write more on your blog later!!!! :D

I too am waiting for the coupon. I am going to do another round on the 6th of october and another after thanksgiving. Woo hoo on the weight loss i am there with you i have lost a little over 9 pounds in 8 days. As for your hubby i think it was an honest mistake. My husband has been ver supportive even reminding me to not eat the wrong food

From what I gathered I'm suppose to take the drops for 40 days and then days 41, 42, & 43 are no drops yet still eat only 500 calories on those days, because the hcg stays in the body 3 days after you stop taking them.

That's cool if that's what your protocol says. Mine is a bit different but oh well. Mine says you take your last drops on day 38 and then 39 and 40 are 500 cal with no drops.
