Hit my Ultimate Goal

Its been a while since I have blogged & been on www.affordableHCGdiet.com so I thought it was time :)
I have been very busy @ work trying to get things done before I go on vacation.  I wanted to share with you that I began the HCG drops from affordablehcgdiet on March 19th, 2011.  My ultimate goal was to lose 40 pounds, but I didn't....I LOST 46.7 pounds in a lil over 3 months.  My starting weight was 186.5 & I now weigh 139.8.
Thanks for all the support from my friends & family!!!!

Soft Skin

I think as I get older I have more delayed reactions on things...lol
The other day my husband was like how is it that your entire body feels so soft?  Your skin is really really soft.  It took me awhile for the lightbulb to go off, but I was like oh yea I have been using the Bonita Inside & Out from http://www.AffordableHCGdiet.com/
I have also noticed in pictures there has been a glow to my face :)
I have been taking the vitamins & using the re-pear lotion for 2 weeks & it is noticeable...YAY for the compliments from my hubby :)
If you would like to know more about the vitamins you can go to affordablehcgdiet on facebook & read about them in the discussion section.

I must have lost more then weight lol

I haven't blogged in a while & I have been very busy @ work, but I wanted to share with you & http://www.affordablehcgdiet.com/
I got a phone call today from Tricia Myerink that she reached her 1st goal & she wanted to call & personally thank me.  That made my day!!!!
My sister, Kathy & her husband Dave were home yesterday & they are both doing wonderful as well.  They have both lost over 20 pounds each.
My sister, Renae, is also doing great & when she talks about it I can hear the excitement in her voice & see the happiness in her eyes & her body language.
I even got a compliment from my 5 year old grandson <3
I have not been able to be on facebook lately, due to the busy days right now & I have a lot of reading to do on affordablehcgdiet :)
I am now on day 68 & have lost a total of 40.1 pounds....I have 6.4 to go before I go to phase 2 & I can't wait to start the maintenance drops that affordablehcgdiet has now because I absolutely love MY DROPS!!!
Now, the reason I named my blog, "I must have lost more then weight lol." The reason is I just bought my hubby a Harley Davidson for Father's Day...I was very nervous @ first & sort of queasy when I went & purchased it! That's what my title is all about lol
But as the days get closer to him picking up his bike, I am getting more excited because I can't wait to wrap my arms around him & ride with him....through town...lol...getting on the highway might take me a little longer to get excited about :)
Thanks for reading my Blog today & Have a GREAT Memorial Weekend!!

B4 & After Pic

I lost 38.9 pounds & went from a size 16 to a Junior 13 when I went to  http://www.affordablehcgdiet.com/

I was very intrigued when I was on facebook & read one of my friends statuses about how much she had lost & how good she felt so I messaged her. She told me about the above website & said they were on facebook (affordablehcgdiet.com).  I read all about it & even did some facebook creeping :) lol.  Thats all it took for me!! I jumped on board & have not looked back until today when I saw this picture of me side by side.  I didn't expect to be so overwhelmed with happiness & tears.  I actually yelled at my hubby & daughter, "COME LOOK AT THIS!!! YOU GOTTA SEE THIS!!!"  I am so glad I made the decision to get healthier, more energetic, & happier.  Being skinnier doesn't hurt either, but I have realized I am more conscious of what I eat & drink & I am lovin' it!  Thanks to all of you that post Blogs on the AffordableHCGdiet website & to those of you who post comments, recipes, triumphs, struggles, questions, & answers on affordablehcgdiet facebook page.  I couldn't have got this far without ALL of you :)

Dinner Tonight

I am going to dinner with my youngest daughter & yes I am going to eat a pasta dish.  Why? Because I deserve it!! I have been on this diet with AffordableHCGdiet.com since March 19th of this year & I have lost 38.9 pounds :)  I didn't do my measurements, but so wish I would have.  I was a size 16 & now I can get into Junior 13's.  I have 7.6 more pounds to lose before I reach my ultimate goal & I could not have done it without my family & the support from facebook friends on affordablehcgdiet.com 
For those of you who are skeptical of diets, any diets I would suggest you go to the above mentioned site & read about it.  It is only a 21 day program unless you want to lose more & LOVE it like I do!! 
I am happier, healthier, & READY for SUMMER!!!!!!! & I can't wait to go shopping for that new bathing suit :) YAY!!!!!
Thanks for reading my Blog today <3 Lori

I am back :)

Hello my fellow bloggers, friends & family @ AffordableHCGdiet.com ,  I just got back from traveling in a semi with my hubby with just a cooler to keep food in.  Before i left I cooked up some chicken & veggies for our trip to the West Coast.  I was unable to prepare food for the trip back to South Dakota so it was quite challenging to keep on track.  You wouldn't beleive the signs for FOOD on the billboards & then as you got closer to the West Coast there were even more signs for the LapBand Surgery.  I smiled each time I seen a surgical sign for I knew I made the smartest & best decision I could doing the HCG Drops from AffordableHCGdrops.com. The day i decided to do the drops was also the day that I said to myself I only have to gain 4 more pounds & then I am eligible for the lapband surgery.....It took about 5 minutes for me to say to myself...what are you thinking???? How sick was I to tell myself to gain more weight to have surgery?????  I cried for awhile & then went to facebook to a site that kept calling me back to it (affordablehcgdiet) & I couldn't be happier. 
So, as I know some of you are waiting to know if I gained, maintained, or lost while traveling.  I am happy to report that I LOST .4 pounds.  The key to my success for a weight loss was drinking all of my water & eating an apple each night before bed.  I had many challenges & temptations as I watched my hubby eat fast food, candy, & drink sodas.  I just kept seeing myself on our boat on the river LOOKIN' GOOD :)
I cannot express enough how I am amazed that I have such willpower, but after seeing the surgical signs it is even easier for me. 
Thank you for reading my Blog today & Have a wonderful weekend!

Dieting & Traveling

I will be going on a trip with my husband in his Semi.  I will probably drive him nuts when I need to use the restroom more then he is use to stopping for lol.  I have prepared myself the best I could while I travel & to stay on track of my diet.  I made grissini breadsticks & tortilla chips, bought canned tuna with a peel off top, fruit, leaf lettuce, water, green tea bags, & of course stevia for my coffee.  He doesn't have a refrigerator only a small cooler or I would take more! I am ready for this trip with him & it is my chance to hopefully get him to do this diet for @ least 21 days.  If I can do it for 40+ days, it should be a breeze for him.
I will not have internet access very often while I am gone & I am sad about that because I go to facebook to affordablehcgdiet everyday because I can see what others are having for dinner, get new recipes, &
there is always something new to learn everyday.  They are why I have been so successful in losing 34.1 pounds in 42 days :)
I will also have some reading to catch up on @ http://www.affordablehcgdiet.com/ with all the new Blogs!
Enjoy this Beautiful day & thanks for reading my Blog <3
