Day 10: The UPS Man Brings My HCG
Well it’s here! I went outside this morning and my package from HCG Diet Direct was sitting on my front porch. I’m a little nervous because this means it’s almost time to actually start following all the rules and they’re really, really strict. But I’m thinking positively and telling you right now…I’m going to do it!
Lisa didn’t get her package yet, but I assume she’ll get it tomorrow. We still have a few days before the actual “start day” for the diet that we agreed upon so we don’t have to worry about it yet. We’ve both recommitted to following all of the oral HCG protocol after our (alright “MY”) slight nervous breakdown yesterday. I’ve decided to quit eavesdropping on HCG dieting forums until I know the actual oral HCG protocol because apparently there are different versions and I’m probably confusing myself.
But now that I have my package in hand I don’t have to worry about all of that. Inside the box was exactly what I ordered. The homeopathic HCG weight loss formula seems easy to use. Apparently the only oral HCG protocol regarding the drops is that you don’t eat or drink for 15 minutes before or after you take it. You take it three times per day and you hold it under your tongue for 15 seconds each time you take it. I figure that’s pretty easy and straightforward.
I also got the B-Total Sublingual. It’s described on the bottle as a Vitamin Supplement. It also says “Get the B12 Boost” and it calls it Energy Liquid Solutions. It all sounds fabulous. Would you like some liquid energy? Yes! Would you like some vitamins? Yes! Would you like a B12 Boost? Well, yes…boosts are always good. The basic instructions for this product in accordance with the oral HCG protocol is very simple. You shake it well. You take it once a day (one full dropper under your tongue). And you hold it under your tongue for 30 seconds before swallowing.
I thought it was interesting that in addition to the daily use suggested on the bottle it says, “In addition, use under periods of stress or prior to physical activity, if needed.” So that’s good to know. I’ll have to keep in mind. Maybe my little brothers won’t be able to catch me when they force me to play flag football this Thanksgiving. They’ve made it an annual tradition. The entire point of the game is to grab my flags as soon as possible rather than blocking any point making plays. Ugh. But I love them, anyway.
Now I’m off to study the instruction manual and the cookbook. I’ve got to make plans. I’ve got to go to the grocery store. I’ve got to get everything laid out mentally (and in reality) so that I’ll get off to a good start. I’ll continue to keep you updated with my daily articles!
