Day one and two are the eat as much as you can days - Yipee!!!

As many of you will know, my father passed away in July last year and I have been struggling with my own loss in someone that I had grown so close to over the last few years. We got closer and closer as his health started to wane and by the end I felt nearer to him than anyone else in my life.

Loosing him I think was one of the reasons that I have slowly bulked on the weight and now that I have tipped over the 70 Kg mark it is time to do something serious about it. The signs of depression can be varied but poor sleep - tick, too much alcohol - tick, lack of focus - tick, and eating in a destructive nature - tick/tick! 

So I have heard and read about the hCG system which is a rapid very low caloric diet with almost no fats and the use of homoeopathic drops to stimulate our bodies ability to draw and utilize the fats that are the most difficult to move. When they are broken down their caloric use means that you don't feel hungry and when done properly the brain works out the new weight and you are more likely never to regain the fat and weight you had prior to the diet.

Why am I doing this blog you ask? 
Well it is really to help me by diarizing how I feel, the ups and downs, how much weight I've lost, cm changed but mainly to help keep me on tract. I mean if I tell you that I'm doing it I am less likely to want to cheat, I mean, you are only cheating you - right??
So the ugly photos, the horrid truth about how disgusting I feel is all landing on these blog spots...

Today and tomorrow are my fat and carb loading days and they encourage you to eat as much and as often as you can. Good fats and carbohydrates like nuts, oils, avocado, pasta, cream, full cream milk, pate, and the list goes on! These are the two easiest and fattiest days and one where I am tucking into the treats that I will be missing for the next 23 days. Yes 23 days of no alcohol, bread, starches, coffee, sweet fruits, and many types of vegetables. 
Wish me luck and comment as often as you like, it will help me get through it all (I'm hoping with flying colours)...
