Today was my first day on my 25 day homeopathic HCG weight loss plan. I'm taking HCG Diet Direct's homeopathic HCG weight loss remedy and following their homeopathic HCG weight loss plan protocol. It wasn't bad! It was pretty fun, actually. But then I'll need to clarify that the first two days are loading days.

Loading day means that you're supposed to eat a LOT of calories and aim for fatty foods. Maybe by the time I'm done cramming tons of high calorie, fatty foods in my  belly I'll be so sick that I'll be ready to eat healthy food for the next 25 days. It's a theory, anyway.

During loading days you are required to go ahead and start the homeopathic HCG weight loss remedy drops. I followed the rules. I took them three times today. Each time I didn't eat or drink for 15 minutes before or after I took them. And I held them under my tongue for 15 seconds before swallowing the liquid.

The formula does need to be kept in a cool place so it could be a tiny bit problematic if you have to cart it around in the summer. But for right now I can cart it around anywhere and it's going to stay cool enough because it's winter. So that's an advantage of doing the diet in the winter season; less worry about storage.

I woke up first thing in the morning and weighed myself (170) and then went about the day making sure that there was plenty of fun foods around for loading. I called Lisa and she also started the diet as planned. So far we're pretty happy with our decision to start the day before Thanksgiving because Thanksgiving is probably the MOST perfect loading day all year long. If you need advice on what type of foods to have during loading here are some that you could try: queso and chips, tamales, mashed potatoes and gravy, sweet potatoes, apple pie, cheese, hamburgers, french fries, ice cream, chocolate shakes, cake...anything you think is yummy basically. (I secretly just wanted to think about all my favorite food indulgences one more time before I go without!)

The first day on the HCG Diet Direct homeopathic HCG weight loss plan is complete. I weighed myself in the morning and took note of it on a pad on my bedside table as required. I took the homeopathic HCG weight loss remedy three times per day as required. I took the B-Total Sublingual once in the morning as suggested. And I've got one more loading day tomorrow before the homeopathic HCG weight loss plan protocol has me starting my low calorie diet.
