1st Day

Today is the beginning of John and my's weight loss journey together. Since having kids I have put on alot of weight that I wish was hanging on someone else. I have done excerising and dieting half-heartedly except for after having Alex when I lost all my baby weight. But since then I have not had the motivation to stick to anything. I am praying with John doing this with me we will motivate each other.

We decided to try HCG drops and the diet that goes with it. Now I know there is some contraversy over this diet, but after research and talking to friends and family who have done it, we are trying it.

So we each have a goal in mind. John's goal is 25 lbs. I have a low, middle, and high goal. I want to at least lose 15 pounds which would put me under a number that made me cringe when I hit that mark. My second goal is 25 lbs, and my ultimate goal is 35 at least. I think it would be awesome to get to my heights healthy weight but that would mean I need to lose around 50 lbs and I don't know if that is even possible. I mean I don't think I even weight that little when I got married at the age of 17, almost 18 and I was thin then.

Maybe I will try 2 rounds of this, depending on the results I get. Who knows, but I do know I hope whatever we lose, we keep off. What is the point if we just go right back to getting like we do now.

Here is starting pictures. Hoping to see a big difference in about a month-month and a half.
