Day 36 -- HCG Diet

This past week's weight was certainly all over the scale! I would gain ounces, lose a pound, gain three pounds, lose two ounces, it just kept fluctuating. With only a week left, I won't be waltzing through the finish line, oh no; I am going to run as fast as I can and with all of my might! I am going to fight and push through until the finish!

And the determination has already begun. Though exercising is not recommended, I have been getting back into the habit of taking Zumba classes, using the Elliptical machine, lifting weights and walking more. Perhaps some of my exercises are creating muscle? Who knows. What I do know is that I hope to lose another 8 pounds by Thursday morning. A hefty goal yes, but I am behind the curve. A little self-pushing can't hurt, right?

• Total weight lost = 11.6 lbs
• 4.2 lbs lost last week
• Difference of measurements of my chest, arm, waist & thigh from last week:
• Chest: Remained the same
• Arms: -0.4
• Waist: -0.4
• Thigh: -0.7
• Abiding by daily doses of HCG drops = Yes
• Cups of water consumed daily = 4-5, 24oz cups at work daily, more at home
• Any aches or pains = No
• Any cheating? Occasional cheating occurs. It gets harder NOT to cheat during certain times of the month [hint, hint]. ARG!!
