We Love Our New Old Clothes!

I get lots of email like many of you…some legitimate, many promotional. Like you I can’t read all of them and honestly I really don’t want to. I remember back in May, I received and “invitation” from Williams Sonoma to apply for a chance to host a dinner party featuring Calphalon and Chef Michael Symon’s recipes from his new cookbook "Live To Cook". Cooking is the only domesticated thing I do well and I must confess its truly a passion of mine. Nothing is so rewarding to me as to create a divine meal and share it with people who can truly appreciate it! So, I decided to accept and registered through a site called HouseParty.com…thinking you never know.

Getting back to KT’s HCG diet, Shel and I are both steaming along. I must confess that weekends are particularly tough because there are so many more chances to “fall off the wagon”. All sorts of temptations abound because of all the free time I have. During the work week, its easy to stay on track because I’m so busy. We both manage however to lose between ½ to 1 pound a day.

Here is my schedule on a typical day:

Morning:
4 HCG drops when I wake up 6:00am
Cup of coffee with a splash of milk no sugar
1 organic apple


LUNCH:
4 HCG drops at 11:30am
100 grams of organic grilled chicken
organic romaine lettuce chopped with juice of ¼ lemon and salt and pepper


MID-AFTERNOON:
4 HCG drops at 3:30pm


DINNER:
100 grams of grilled fish
grilled organic tomatoes


EVENING:
44 HCG drops at 8:30pm


I also drink a lot of filtered water and assorted herbal teas throughout the day.


Our clothing is practically falling off! Shel and I are both digging through our closets for our “one day I’ll get back into this” clothing. You know you all have some article (or several) of clothing that you held onto along with the hope of wearing it again. Guess what? That day has arrived for us! I pull out pairs of pants, tops, dresses…they all look fabulous! I can’t believe it when I pass a mirror and see myself! That’s the me I was missing and its great to be back! Shel is over the moon as well and loves modeling all her “new old clothes” for me. I realize that Dr. Simeon did the original research on HCG but, without KT, I would’ve never known this diet or that Dr. Simeon even existed. A big THANK YOU to them both, I am feeling grateful.

Its with this feeling that I receive an email from Williams Sonoma saying that I was one of the lucky winners selected to host an “Easy & Elegant” Dinner party. I will be receiving a “Party Pack” and instructions to host a party on June 5th. Will have to be creative with my diet but I can’t wait! WooHOO!
