A New Day Dawns

I got my HCG materials, I'm mixing my solution tonight, and then tomorrow I begin "loading". I'm super stoked to start this diet after actually seeing the success a friend had with it. She looks incredible and it takes an enormous amount of willpower to make it through this diet...so I'm not only looking forward to the weight loss but I'm also looking forward to a new ability to control myself. I'm usually somebody that can't diet very well, I'll do great for a week or two then I cave and eat the yummy, fatty goodness that tends to crash a diet. Since this diet is very strict and has noticeable repercussions if you cheat (as in 1-2 lbs of weight gain in a day) I am excited to see how well I will do. I've always said diets are too hard because they don't give you enough parameters but this one is great because it's all laid out for you, what you can and can't eat each and every day, and I even got two recipe books from my friend to help spice things up a bit.

Well, here we go! Tonight I weigh 163.2 lbs (well this morning I did)
My current measurements are as follows:
Chest: 40 (yeah, they're big! LOL)
Waist: 38
Hips: 42
L Thigh: 20.75
R Thigh: 21 (odd how that works)
L Arm: 11.75 (I'm left handed)
R Arm: 11.25
Abductors: 41 (That's the area right under your bum..aka saddle bags)

Aright, you've all been updated and I'm gonna try to keep you all posted as I go along. You have no idea how excited I am for this. I have Em's wedding in November and I'm hoping that by then my gut will be a thing of the past and my dress size will be a thing of beauty ;-)
