So today marks my one month journey on my weight-loss program.My goal is to lose 30 pounds but I've only lost about 20.However that being said on this round I exercised whereas before I never had.In other rounds I lost 25 to 30 pounds, However I didn't exercise.While the drop wasn't as much in pounds, I still dropped two pants sizes in 30 days.I went from a 14 to 10.
Had really been frustrated at the end not seeing the scale drop.However when I tried on my skinny close today they all fit. It just goes to prove that muscle does way more than fat.Although the pounds did not dropad much the inches did and now I have a healthier way of living.My goal is still to lose about another 20 pounds or drop another pant size.But for today I'm very happy with my journey so far.

20 lbs in one month is a lot, be proud !

Considering I keep reading and hearing that 1-2lbs a week of weight loss is considered a healthy and decent amount, making it up to 8lbs a month, I would say 20lbs is somewhat insane. Anywho, yeah, muscle does weigh more than fat, which is why people get confused if they aim to gain muscle and lose weight at the same time.

And you had a terrific family weekend along the way, no?

Terrific work. Are you going to continue your cycle?

No more injection. Not sure if I am going to switch to lchf now or phase 3. Leaning more towards lchf to drop the additional but still keeping my fitness routine.

PS - BTW - I ran the diet w/o the HCG for awhile. Results still really good...

Thats great! And i like what u said about muscle weighs more. It just shows that its not just about the scale.

Great job Karen! We are on the same journey....our stories definitely parallel! Have a great week.

For me it would be worse for the weight to come off and the clothes to still be tight. Kudos for your effort.

Hey Karen, you look good right now, but I understand you would like to lose more. It does make you feel better. I never will go back.

Thanks Warren! Its more about being healthier and being more fit, truth be told.

Thanks Smarty Girl :)

Hey Karen, read your earlier post about LCHF. I joined that group here as well since I was flirting with it before deciding to HCG again. I think that I may go through Phase 3 1st, especially since I'm a beer and BBQ summer gal. Also, I'm thinking about the whole new "set point" theory. I'll definitely be adding in exercise shortly although I don't think that I can keep up with you. I'm definitely interested in seeing what you do next and how it works out for you.
