Can you believe it?

I still can't.

 I have lost 3 pants sizes on one round of the Homeopathic HCG Diet!

 I first started this diet in November and in 31 days I lost 35.6 lbs and lost 28.875 inches!  I was planning on completing a 40 day cycle but I quickly lost the maximum amount of weight that was recommended for my body composition, and started maintenance at that point.

I am currently on maintenance part 1 which is no carbs and no sugar for 3 weeks but I can slowly add in fats and oils.  It is HEAVEN!  I can eat guacamole, sour cream, cheese, and mix my vegetables!  (on the low calorie portion you can only eat one type of vegetable at a meal).

 The best part is when I walked in to Lane Bryant the other day I tried on a pair of 14/16 stretchy pants and they were too big!  Then the woman helping me handed me a pair of work pants in a 14.  Immediately I thought "No way are these going to fit at all!".  I had started out on the HCG Diet in a generous size 18...which was more like a size 20 if we are being real. 

So I tried on the pants and as I pulled them up over my hips I was still thinking they would be too small when...they fit perfectly...with just a little room!

THIS TOTALLY MADE MY DAY!!!!!  Can you tell?

It made sticking to the diet worth every moment.  Especially the moments when I watched family members eat stuffing, mashed potatoes, and pumpkin pie at Thanksgiving.  Yes, I started this diet knowing that I would be on the low calorie portion over Thanksgiving. 

Why?

I was done being so overweight!

The best part is, I think I lost 1.4 pounds over Thanksgiving! To tell you the truth it wasn't that bad watching everyone eat all of those carbs.  I practically got full watching them eat!

 So I am now in a size 14, the smallest size in Lane Bryant, and I can't wait to shrink out of that store!

In 5 weeks I will start another round of Homeopathic HCG because my goal is to lose another 57 pounds and be at my high school swimming weight before the end of the summer!  This will take two more rounds to complete...and I look forward to shrinking along the way.

 I have had to buy almost a completely new set of clothes.  I am not buying too much though because it won't be long and these 14's won't fit anymore!

Kansas City Chiropractor Has Great Success In Treating Pinched Nerves!

 Does your neck hurt?  Do you have trouble turning your head without pain that limits you or shoots down your back or arm?  Do you have pain in your back that radiates to your legs or hips?

 All of those can be signs of a pinched nerve.

What is a pinched nerve?

A pinched nerve is a common term for a nerve that is irritated or compressed, usually caused by a misaligned vertebra or disc irritation.

How can a Chiropractor help that?

Chiropractors are trained in detecting and correcting misalignments of the spine.  We are also experts in helping disc problems, and long standing nerve irritation problems.  By adjusting the spine it balances the nervous system and takes pressure off of the irritated nerves.  This allows the body to return to its maximum functioning state.

 I have seen patients heal to 100% improvement with as little as 6 visits.  If it is a more severe case, it can take 10 or 12 or more to truly stabilize the spine.  It is of minimal benefit to merely get someone out of pain because if the spine is not stabilized, the problem can recur again in a short period of time.  By stabilizing the spine and slowly increasing the time between visits, the body maintains the improvement on its own, thus drastically decreasing the chances of a painful recurrence.

A pinched nerve can be extremely painful, and in most cases can't be completely resolved with ice, heat, or medication.  It is important to get to the root cause of the pinched nerve and address it.  A Chiropractor is an expert in examining and treating patients with pinched nerves, and is a valuable resource to maximize your body's potential!

Chiropractor and Acupuncturist in Kansas City Shares Her Personal Journey on the Homeopathic HCG Diet 

Good morning everyone!  It's always a good morning when you wake up and you are 1.8 pounds lighter!

 I have been meaning to write blog pots all along about my experience with the Homeopathic HCG Diet, but I haven't.  I think part of me was worried I wouldn't be successful, and part of me was worried about all the naysayers out there that say it doesn't work or it is harmful.

 First of all, I've been wanting to personally do the HCG Diet for years, ever since I heard my uncle lost 42 pounds in 6 weeks (doing the HCG injections), and then several other family members have done it with success as well.  I just didn't want to spend the 700.00+ cost for just the injections alone.

 Fast forward to a couple months ago and a good friend of mine, who is also a Chiropractor, helped her husband do the diet when he wanted to lose weight and fit back into his former size again (by the way he went down TWO pants sizes).  I got to hear about their experience ever step of the way, educating myself, and buying the HCG Diet Guide by Linda Prinster on Amazon for about 25.00.  I started reading it for myself, and also I wanted to educate myself and become an expert on this topic for my patients.  I see it as a viable way for many people to lose weight and keep it off...provided they are willing to follow directions and take a little coaching.

 I started looking at the calendar...I was doing a LOT of traveling in October, and knew it would be best to be home for the 23 to 40 days I was going to be on Phase 2 which is the Low Calorie portion combined with the Homeopathic HCG Drops.  Before you start the Low Calorie Phase, you gorge for 2 days on fat filled foods to build up your structural fat.  I started the gorge days on November 12th which was a Thursday so that my first two days on the Low Calorie Phase would be on a weekend.  I did this so that I would have some downtime to give my body a chance to relax and to see how I would do before I had a busy day at the office.

At two weeks in to P2 you measure.  I measured at Day 16 and was down 16.75 inches, and 2.25 of those were around my midriff!

 Fast forward to today...the Morning of Day 23 of the Low Calorie Phase also called P2.

I have lost 27.6 pounds and I am FOUR pounds thinner than I was two years ago when I was working with a personal trainer. OH, AND I AM COMFORTABLY IN MY SKINNY JEANS! (but I'm looking forward to buying even smaller skinny jeans soon!)  I am so happy and looking forward to the next 17 days to see how much more I can lose.  There are some sources that say even before you get to day 40 if you lose 34 or 36 pounds you should go on maintenance early, and there are other sources that say if you are extremely overweight it is ok to go a little further.  I'm going to take it one day at a time once I am at 36 pounds lost and see if I start maintenance early.  Either way, I will be on maintenance at Christmas so I can have turkey (but no starch or sugar!).

 Check out my future blog posts as I review the last few weeks and share more with you about the Homepathic HCG Diet.  I am creating a comprehensive support program in my office for patients so that I can help them achieve the fantastic success I have experienced as well!
