Day 29--HCG Diet

I am still very proud of my progress but I would be lying if I said I wasn't slightly disappointed. I was hoping to have been halfway to my goal by this date. A vicious goal? Perhaps. But the purpose of this diet is to lose a pound a day, minus the first two stuff-your-face days that they recommend. I figured with a few "cheat" moments, I still would have at least lost 20 by now.

What I am learning however, is that weight is being lost and probably at a healthier pace. I have also noticed that on the days that I don't drink as much water as I should, I don't lose nearly as much weight as I should (thanks for the reminder, Michelle!). I am reminding myself that these are all lessons I am learning along the way and my goal is still attainable. 16 days left!!

• Total weight lost = 9.2 lbs
• 2.4 lbs were lost last week
• Difference of measurements of my chest, arm, waist & thigh from last week:
• Chest: Remained the same
• Arms: -0.7
• Waist: -0.7
• Thigh:  -1.0 
• Abiding by daily doses of HCG drops = check, though it's still harder to remember the 3rd dosage due to nightly social activities
• Cups of water consumed today = half of one (it's still early though!)
• Any aches or pains? They're becoming few, actually. I don't feel hunger pains as much anymore
• Any cheating? Occasionally but not nearly as much...then there's the "accidental cheat" (that had corn in it?!)
