Before we get started with the HCG business…Happy Thanksgiving! So do you agree with me now that we chose the absolute most perfect day to start the HCG diet? Thanksgiving went quite well. I followed all the HCG protocol for weight loss AND I enjoyed all the traditional Thanksgiving Day foods. It was perfect.

I woke up and weighed myself (same as yesterday). Then I took my homeopathic HCG weight loss formula drops and my B-Total Sublingual drops. After waiting the required 15 minutes, I had cinnamon rolls for breakfast. And I didn’t even limit myself to one since it IS a loading day. I’m supposed to eat a LOT of fatty foods so cinnamon rolls were the perfect place to start.

The family was expecting me to bring an apple pie to the big Thanksgiving gathering so I got started on it right away to make sure it would be done in time. (I peeled about a million apples for Mile High Apple Pie). I also had as many spiced apples as I wanted during the process since I was supposed to be eating a lot of high calorie, high fat foods as possible during my “loading” day. There were plenty of other “holiday” foods sitting around that fell right in line with the HCG protocol for weight loss “loading” requirement so the day went along quite smoothly.

I remember reading in the HCG protocol for weight loss that one common error that limits the amount of success dieters have on the HCG diet is that they don’t “load” enough during day one and two. It just confirmed my belief that I was right to choose the day before and Thanksgiving Day as our loading days on the diet. If you don’t load enough you can apparently increase your hunger, experience headaches and be cranky during the remainder of your HCG program.

I want to avoid all hunger and headaches and crankiness if possible so I’m doing my best to take in enough fat during my first two days. I’m sure that I’ll have my rough days, but if loading more fat can increase the chances that I won’t have a lot of rough days I’m all for it!

Basically I’ve found the HCG protocol for weight loss easy so far; but loading is probably far easier than limiting myself to 500 calories so I’ve got to stop congratulating myself! Regardless…Happy Thanksgiving! And wish me luck starting the next phase tomorrow…
