A few months ago I decided that I wanted to make a change in my life and one of the areas I need a huge change is my health. I have dealt with many challenges as it pertains to becoming healthier, some of my own and other internally, ( I will share more of these stories in my blog) but recently I was introduced to a product that has helped many to lose 5lbs in 5 days, I've personally lost 6lbs in 10 days, but very excited about that small accomplishment. So within the product line I have seen many success stories and decided to create on of my own. Using the dietary supplements and some will power I have decided to embark on a 30 Day Weight Loss Challenge to jump start my change. Feel free to follow my journey or join me whenever you feel like you are ready for a change.

WHAT IS HCG AND THE SCIENCE BEHIND IT.

If you want to try the HCG Diet but don’t understand how it works, this brief overview will help you
understand what sets the HCG diet plan apart from other diets. The HCG diet concentrates on
reducing your intake of calories to 500 a day to stimulate weight loss. The presence of the HCG
hormone forces your body to burn stubborn, stored fat for energy to compensate for the lack of
calories eaten. Your body will be eating its own fat; therefore you will not feel hungry or experience
your usual cravings.



1. HCG reprograms the hypothalamus
HCG is a hormone that has been shown to regulate the hypothalamus of the brain. When the body has
an adequate amount of HCG, the hypothalamus burns excess fat stores. Without adequate HCG, the
brain will burn lean muscle tissue before it ever burns excess fat.
2. HCG resets your metabolism
When your body’s natural reserves of HCG are restored, the hypothalamus is triggered to burn the excess
amounts of fat that contribute to obesity. This also resets your metabolism, giving it the boost you need in
order to burn fat quickly. If you have struggled for years with a sluggish metabolism, an HCG deficiency
may be your problem.
3. HCG controls hunger pains
Because your body draws the energy it needs from burning excess fat, you can maintain a low-calorie
diet without feeling hungry between meals. With the HCG diet you learn to recognize when you are full,
which trains you to stop overeating. This is a crucial weight-management skill that you will learn through
the HCG program and use the rest of your life.
4. HCG increases energy
Unlike diet pills that rely on caffeine and other substances to boost energy, HCG gives you an all-natural
energy kick. As your body burns excess fat stores, you will find your energy level increasing. While most
low-calorie diets leave you feeling weak and undernourished, HCG allows your body to unlock its natural
stores of energy.
5. HCG is safe and natural
HCG is a naturally occurring hormone in the body, which is depleted over time due to the chemicals in
our environment and our food. Taking oral HCG is perfectly safe and it does not have any side effects.
Nor does it interact with other medications. The diet plan itself does not call for any chemical-laden
shakes or bars, you simply eat small amounts of fresh fruits, vegetables, and lean meats.
If you have struggled for years with obesity and a lack of energy, the HCG diet plan may be the right
answer for you. It’s a safe, effective, and all natural diet that jump-starts your metabolism and burns
excess fat quickly.

HCG Second round

So I'm back on the HCG program... down 8lbs in 8days. For those that followed the first 30 day challenge you know I made a huge mistake but managed to lose 15lbs. My plan was to go into maintenance for 6 weeks. Well what had happened was.... life, I had about 3 hair shows in the 6 weeks time period and I literally ate out for 6 weeks. But thanks to the Iaso Detox Tea, I managed to only gain 5.... I surely thought I had blown it all.

So with nothing on the schedule for about 8 weeks, I decided to do a second round of HCG... with proper instructions of taking the drops I am pleased to to be 8 days in and have lost 8 lbs.

Pictures don't lie. I'm enjoying the journey and want to inspire and help other get started with their own .

30 Day Challenge - Final weigh in...

Ok, so I finished my 30 Day Challenge on Friday and had my final weigh in on Sunday, total weight loss... 15lbs. Not bad a littles less than average on the HCG protocol but I will take the 15. It's a great jump start and motivation the the next 25lbs. So let me share the good and the bad.

The Good: I started the program out with really good momentum... I lost the first 10lbs in about 12 days.

The Bad: I took the wrong dosage and ran out of supplement and had a few days without and began to gain weight. Once I got back on my supplement I never regained the momentum but still managed to lose another 5lbs.

The Good: I was never hungry, but would get weak or dizzy from not eating. The 500 calories was doable. My meals mostly consisted of 2 fruits (apples and cantaloupe), 2 Crackers, and protien wrapped in lettuce or with a side salad.

The Good: I also have lost cravings for sugar and look at my meals totally different. My body has been trained to snack more and have one meal a day. Moving into maintenance eating 1000 calories may be difficult.

Maintenance: I now will move into maintenance which will include eating up to 1000 - 1200 calories a day while working out building muscle to keep my body in fat burning mode and keeping carbs to a minimum.

I will continue to take the Nutriburst, Tea, NRG, and Techui and share my progress. I really miss working out.

Would I do it again? Yes I actually plan to do another cycle in August when my travels slow down a bit but I finally found a program that can help me reach my wellness goals.

30 Day Challenge Update

Quick check-in...

I have about a week left in my 30 day challenge, down 14lbs. in 23 days.  I was hoping to be at 20 but I suffered a 9 day yo-yo period up and down 4lbs. First I ran out of product, then I had pms issues. been back on track for about 5 days losing on average a pound a day.




Life happens... and I had to hang in their and ride that plateau out and stay committed. Did I want to quit... yes but I would focus on my goals and adjust my eating to bring me back on track.

I'm actually considering extending my HCG phase 2 about a week to recover my week I of setbacks.... we shall see. You can actually stay on phase 2 for 26- 40 days. I will be at 26 days in 4 days, then 3 days of phase 3.

The meals are totally doable as long as I prep. I've added the NRG and Techui for more energy and protein, and I feel a lot better. Definitely more energy.

How to get more energy.

Just ordered my Energy kit with NRG(energy supplement that burns 300 calories extra/day),


 my Techui (super food), and drinking my Iaso Tea.
















 Getting ready to wrap up my 26 day cycle of HCG... moving into phase 3 (3 days with no drops and 500 calories to set metabolism, and then on the phase 4, the maintenance phase (3weeks 1200-1500 calories, no carbs, no sugars, good fats, lean proteins, and workouts). Been plateaued around 10-12 lbs since my missed dosage for a few days and then had the visit from the hormonal demon that comes once a month sometimes twice just to tell you that you are not pregnant... #sickofher But any who... about 6 days left in HCG cycle lets see where I finish... 10 lbs is still a success in 26 days and a great jump start, but I miss working out. I plan to do another round without interruptions in Aug. after travel slows down.

But I have truly learned some better eating habits. 500 calorie meals where not hard to do, I can definitely do it again and it will make eating 1200-1500 calories a day much easier to make better whole food choices.

How to lose weight fast! with HCG!

Many think the HCG diet program is a lose weight quick program. Although it offers a faster than normal results it requires extreme discipline to the program and commitment to maintenance.

The program is 26- 40 days longs by your own choice, but maintenance is a lifestyle. With average weight loss from 15-40 lbs in one HCG cycle (26-40 days), you must be discipline to continue losing and maintain.

HCG protocol does offer a great jump start to beginning a new lifestyle and is very motivation to wake up to a scale that goes down daily, who wouldn't want to stay on the program.

However you must be mentally ready to make a change to better and healthier lifestyle, which means learning what will alter or hinder your success and quickly correcting those issues. A healthier lifestyle is a journey not a lose weight quick gimmick. Change your mind... change your life.

The correct dose for HCG drops.

Good morning,

I promised to share the good and the bad part of my journey.  I totally messed up and have gained  3 lbs. which has my total loss now at 9 lbs. I'll take the 9 lbs but I was on track to be at 15 by now. However, I totally took my drops wrong, I was taking way to many and literally ran out with in 13 days of regimen, I ordered more last week but the USPS is operating at total snail mail these days. So today I wait hopefully for them to arrive so I can get back on track.

The correct dosage is 10-12 drops, not droppers, 3 times a day (30 drops a day) for average use. You take take them 15 minutes before for meals or liquids, hold them under your tongue a for a few seconds to help them enter your blood stream. For more than average weight loss or if you experience hunger the maximum is 36-45 drops a day.



Don't get the desire to eat mixed up with hungry. I found that if you start at 7 am eating your first meal and eat a snack or meal every 3-4 hrs you will not feel hungry. I have not felt hungry, but a little dizzy the beginning, I feel that way when I don't eat protein and I learned that my body is going through withdrawals from sugar being that the diet is completely sugar free.

Over all I am pleased. I didn't think I could do it but other than this minor setback I am looking forward to continuing my journey.
