Let's get started!

Hi everyone. My names Teresa. Will be 37 years old next month. I can't wait to get started on the HCG diet and lose weight as my birthday present to myself. I'm about 50 pounds over my ideal weight right now. I do blame the weight gain on my last pregnancy. Yeah I know, I've said it too. But in my defense I was on bed rest for the entire pregnancy and gained about 80 pounds because of it. I was in great shape up until that point. Never worried about what I ate or working out. I just never gained weight. Now I know how lucky I had it. So my lifestyle now hasn't helped. I'm a stay at home mom, who helps my husband run his business. I do all the paperwork and payroll. So not a very active job. I have tried to become more active. I became my son's cub scout den leader. So we go camping and hiking. That has helped me feel better about myself and have more energy. But have only lost about 5 pounds from it.
My husband tried this diet on his own and I don't think he did it right. Even not doing it totally right he lost almost 90 pounds. He looks great and is very happy with the results of the diet. I know if he can do that, I can do this diet. I've tried a few things over the years like the Atkins, the south beach and even trim spa. They didn't work and I always felt like I was starving. I know how well this diet works. So I'm ready to go, let's get started, I can't wait!!!
