July

Well for those of you who follow our blog you should know by now that whenever there is a rather long lapse in between posts it means we have moved!!! HA!
We have been so busy since we got back to AZ and it was so chaotic living at my parents that I was itching for us to get our own place and start getting things back to normal. So the day before we left to go camping I was searching craigslist for a house to rent and we found one out in Queen Creek. We signed the lease the next day a couple of hours before leaving for our camping trip (Diesels in the Pines) and moved (AGAIN) by that Wednesday.
Things still have not slowed down for us yet, we have been overwhelmingly (is that a word??) on the go between us moving, helping our friends move, Fathers Day, get togethers for Shawn's shop, get togethers for our truck group, National Hotrod Diesel Assoc race in Tucson, visiting my sister and her family in Tucson, 4th of July, good old summer bbqs with friends...the list is never ending.
Last Friday one of my best friends and I started a new journey on the road to getting fit/healthy- the plan that we have started is the HCG diet. I had heard about it a few years ago but never really looked into it, but upon moving back to AZ another friend mentioned that she and her mom were going to try it. The more I looked into it the more people I find have tried or want to try it (my brother and sister in law even did it!).
First and foremost I would recommend that if you are interested in learning more about this program to go out and purchase a book called The Weight Loss Cure it is by Kevin Trudeau (you may want to order it online I had to look up which Barnes & Noble had it in stock after ransacking 2 B&N and a Border and not finding it!). I was amazed at the common sense about the plan, basically you are cleansing your body of toxins/poisons that have been consumed over all the years from pesticides, hormones and other garbage that is in foods by eating organic. Now granted this is only a piece of the puzzle, the diet also includes the hcg hormone (hormone present in pregnant women) which can be taking as either an injection or orally. My friend and I chose the injection route (we figured it would absorb better!) however my other friend that completed the program with her mother went with the oral method. She lost 14 lbs and 12 inches and is still losing!!!! AMAZING!!!! I myself just started the program on Friday 7/3 and have lost 4.5 lbs already. I must say that I am impressed more so about NOT feeling hungry than I am about losing almost 5 lbs. If you are interested in learning more please feel free to email me, not that I am a spokeperson (cause Im not!!!) but because I am sure that there are so many people out there that are feeling the way I felt about finding a program that actually works and can change your life. Eating all organic has certainly proven to not be a cheap/easy route but it is definately a change that I am willing to pay for!
Now that we have internet I will do my best to keep my progress posted- wish me well!!!
