| Introduction | I’m 65-years young and had weight challenges for most of my life. Even though I have chosen healthy eating for the past 30 years or so, weight continued to be a challenge. I wrote about my experiences in FREEDOM FROM EMOTIONAL EATING: 21 Days to a New You! (seeking a publisher) in which I talk about my binge eating until my thirties and then my experiences with emotional and spiritual recovery (12 Steps and more) but no permanent weight loss. The majority of the book is prescriptive self-help, giving the readers an exercise/activity each day to add to their toolboxes and as they learn to stop emotional eating. In 2010, I dropped 30 pounds going to a wellness weight loss center here in Tucson (ADIO), but was unable to lose any more. Then I discovered HCG (actually, I re-discovered it since I used it many years ago as a teenager—read about my experience in the post “ Thoughts and Feelings at the Halfway Point”). Using HCG for a month, I was able to drop another ten pounds, am pretty close to my goal weight, and I NOW WEAR A SIZE 6!! I never wore a 6—I went from a chunky girl (size 14-16) to a chubby teen (size 13-15). WAHOO—the HCG protocol is an answer to many prayers! |
