My Investment

For fwo goddamn days i had nightmares.
What? hormones of a pregnent women!
Gulp!!!!!
The first fear sets in, will i grow breasts? will my voice change and my skin smoother and my moustarch and goatee drop bits by bits - no way. The doctor rest assured me that HCG is not estrogen.
wow! what a big relieve.
The program that i had paid for, costs over a RM1K which i took from a legit medical practitioner uses the injection instead of oral drops. I must confess that I am one that is diffident of needles, no matter how small it is.
OMG! there were 25 syringes to go. the pretty doctor convinced me that i would feel no pain, nevertheless, i had the strong feeling of mampus la aku.
well, true enough the needle, alas was very small and curtail.

regardless, on the first day i  challenged myself and braved administering the injection to the area slightly below the belly button, shockingly it was a breeze. i learned from youtube - to feel no pain simply stretch the skin before injecting the needle into your flesh,
yet, I was shocked to find out that once you stretched the flesh, the needle almost went in by itself, there was only a slight "ant-bite" sensation, no more. man! all that fear boiled down to zilch.

and so i went out on a shopping spree: things that i invested on was:  2 digital weighing machine (one for body weight and the other to weigh meat/vegetables & food), measuring tape, spices like powdered garlic, ginger, paprika, stake marinate, pepper, celtic sea salt. 
i had a choice of buying an electric  grill or an airfryer, but after much thought and comparison, decided on  tefal actifry
naturally, i had to stock up beef, chicken breasts, fish, prawns and variety of vegetables and apples. lots of apples. luckily the pantry in the office has got two fridges and a microwave oven.
the catch is, i have to cook the food myself especially in the office for lunch, i have to weigh 100 gm of meat and 100 gm of vegetable and cook for lunch and dinner.  for lunch i have to cook up a meal and eat it within an hour of lunch break. 

i simply love my actifry. it could fry without oil, grill and cook meal within minutes.
loosing weigt is one thing, but maintaining it is another. the latter proves to  be much difficult.
I am investing for the future.

what HCG Diet Plan is all about

Been looking for a body reshaping program for quite sometime now. i have been asking the slimming centers nearby but the package of using multiple machines comes up to close RM5,000. it takes over a period of three months of twice weekly to complete the sessions.
i have doubts about keeping to the routine.

then, suddently i came across a brochure of a colleque who was on an Atkin Diet because her pressure has shot up to an extreme danger level. it says that u could loose between 0.5 - 2 kg per day by committing to a HCG Dieting Program.
so i googled and found out that HCG is: 

"Restricting your intake to 500 calories a day isn't healthy," says Pieter Cohen, an assistant professor of medicine at Harvard Medical School. The other part of the diet is daily drops or injections of the pregnancy hormone hCG, which supposedly accelerates weight loss by suppressing appetite and "blasting" fat.
Human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) is a hormone produced by the embryo following implantation

What is the hCG Diet then?

The hCG diet consists of three stages. The hCG Diet stages are:

• Loading — 2 days of eating fatty, carb-filled foods.
• Burning — 26 to 43 days of a 500-calorie diet, depending on your goal.
• Maintenance — 3 weeks of a starch/sugar-free diet.

The loading stage requires that you begin taking the hCG and load with foods that are high in carbohydrates and fats. This is done so that your body will begin to adapt to the effects of the hCG.

In the burning stage you begin the VLCD (very-low calorie diet, this diet is outlined in the hCG Meal Plan section) while continuing with the drops or injection.

The maintenance stage requires that you not eat any sugar or starches for 3 weeks.

take a look at me now

Have you ever waken up one day in the morning and viewed yourself in a looking mirror and suddenly wondered who that person looking right back at you was? 

OMG, The sight was sooooo very disgusting. that was definitely not me. i looked much better that that, really! 

Just look at that figure, it was like something not right at the hormones development department, that could have caused primarily not by genes, but endocrine disorders, medications, or mental and bodily illness. 

Having said that, you climbed back to bed trying to resume sleep but  alas! you knew you have only two choices: dream on and view yourself having a figure as 20 years ago, still, or wake up and do something about it. And real quick too! 
When you are in a business of public or customer relations or lecturing, coaching or mentoring, it helps a lot if you have a total package, i guess you know what i mean. i just what to share my journey of committing into a dieting program which unbelievably works.
Well at least it works for me!
