Beta HCG Diet -- I Miss Food!

This diet is going well. I'm doing everything according to the plan. I'm losing weight. I'm feeling thinner. (Hey, everything is relative.) I feel good about this whole program I'm on. Only one problem....

I miss food! I long for a Subway turkey and provolone sub. I want a big bite of a Red Robin Pub Burger, medium. I could resist their fries, which I seriously love, but the burger, cheese and bun...oh, big sigh! I'd love to wrap my mouth around a hunk of string cheese. I could sink my teeth into a big old salad with chicken, a mix of vegetables, hard boiled egg and a little dressing. I can't wait for when I can eat the whole Flo's Filet, medium rare, at Longhorn Steakhouse.

It's not that I want to go back to the way I was eating --I definitely do NOT! -- but I don't know where to draw the line or even if I can. I know I don't have to worry about it for another 27 days and I only have to handle one day at a time, but I'm scared of gaining the weight back. Statistics are on the side of gaining it all back plus more. I don't want to go through all of this only to gain it back. I think it's almost healthier to keep the weight on than to be yo-yoing

These are thoughts. I can have my thoughts, feelings, doubts and fears and still stick to my plan the whole 42 days. But I sure hope that in the next few days -- or certainly by the 42nd day -- I will feel differently about how I'll re-enter my normal life, whether I plan to go through another round or two of this diet. Yes, diet. Even though I want to think of it as a health program, right now I just see it as a damn diet! Wish me luck. And stay tuned....
