Ok, I know I am not good at this!

So, I finished my Round 2. I ended the round at 227.6 and was ok with that. It is possible that my body hit an immunity to HCG at some point. I thought my ending weight was 227.6, but I have had a VERY hard time. My weight has been sitting around 231-232 since the first couple of days after starting Maintenance. I even did a steak day (supposed to help you lose a few lbs to keep within 2 lbs of your last HCG weight) The protocol said that for those that hit immunity, any weight lost will be gained back, because it was not abnormal fat. I can't help but wonder if that is what is happening to me.

Anyway, to start this at 294 and be at 232 is still an accomplishment. It may not be as far as I wanted to be at this point, but I will take it. It may mean that I have to do an extra round to get where I want to be, but I will deal with that when the time comes. For now, I am tracking my calories and just bought a cheap elliptical to get started on. Hopefully with calorie tracking and exercise, I can get some good habits formed and it won't be difficult to maintain my losses.

These are my measurements when I started at 294:
NECK: 16.5"
R ARM: 16.5"
L ARM: 17"
UPPER CHEST: 44.5"
CHEST: 50.5"
MIDRIFF: 47"
WAIST: 51"
HIPS: 56.5"
R THIGH: 31"
L THIGH: 30.5"
R KNEE: 22"
L KNEE: 22.5"
R CALF: 18.5"
L CALF: 18"
POUCH: 12"
ROLL ABOVE WAIST: 51.5"



These are my measurements now:

Rarm 14.5 -2
L arm 15 -2
Upper 41 -3.5
Chest 40 -10.5
Midriff 39 -8
Waist 43.5 -7.5
Hips 50 -6.5
Rthigh26.5 -4.5
L thigh 26 -4.5




R calf 17 -1.5
L calf 17 -1
Pouch 9 -3



There are some measurements that I forgot to take. The column next to the measurements is how much I have lost from the beginning in those areas. That is 56 inches lost overall. If I were to measure the spots I skipped, I am sure I would be around 60. It works out to be about an inch lost for a pound lost. Somewhere around there. Someday I will get around to taking pictures. I just cant remember to don the sports bra and shorts to take them. As soon as I remember I will post befores and nows.

  1. hey....60 ball park is good. Now...just to establish life long habits. It's going to take a bit but...eventually it will be that, a habit. That's all I have going for me. Whether I like to exercise or not...it's habit. Good luck! Post pics soon.
