Its not a diet but a lifestyle change

Well Well Well....... Its been almost 2 months since I started my weight loss journey. After seeing a depressing 279 on the scale, I got my act together and made some tough choices. I began the HCG diet and saw tremendous results in the first 28 days. In that period I lost 20 pounds. After the 28 day period I started to travel for work. This travel kept me on the road for about a month with only 2 days at home during that time. This made the HCG diet impossible. I couldnt regulate eating times, no control over the menu, and would leave my drops in the hotel or guest apartments half the time. What I did learn, was I had developed SOME discipline. No-low carb intake, veggies and fruits, lots of water and do the best I can - when I can. I put back up to 10 of the pounds (on my worst day) and had it under control to about 5. So at the end of 2 months I am down 15 pounds and ready for another round of phase 1 (ended last night) and phase 2 (begin today). Im shooting for 20 pounds again, bring my HCG experience to 35 pounds of weight loss. From that point I think I can maintain and continue with a less drastic program of weight watchers or Jenny, we will cross that bridge when it comes.
