My first weight loss product

Salutations! I am writing this post because I thought it would be a good idea to give a review on this weight loss product. The product is called HCG and I bought mine at hcg1234.com. Just a little basic information HCG is a type of hormone that pregnant women produce. The hormone aids in the process of getting nutrition to the developing fetus. Please correct me if any of this is wrong, I haven't really done a thorough job researching this product as of late. Here is what a bottle looks like, this is one of my bottles by the way. I started using this around mid to late July of 2011. My starting weight was 291, the heaviest I have been in all my life. I was on the HCG for a little more than 5 weeks (the maximum amount of use is 6 weeks with a 3 week break before starting again). I ended at 250, my total weight loss was 41 pounds! This was the smallest I had been since junior high! I did gain about seven or eight pounds back because I did not follow the directions for reintegrating "regular" food back into my system BUT I was able to maintain my weight after the gain quite nicely.
        This product is not for people with no will power! It did help me lose weight fast but the eating program (they now have three different types) I chose was very strict. I was essentially consuming 500 calories a day along with 3 to 5 liters of water and a cup of iced green tea. EATING LESS WILL NOT MAKE YOU LOSE WEIGHT FASTER WHEN ON THIS!!!! I found that if I had eaten less my weight loss would stall for a day or two. Also you can not work out a lot while on this product! I walked almost everyday, that was all. You could jog or do some lite swimming but nothing to strenuous. I did not get compensated for this blog post, I just wanted to share a product that really helped me jump start my weight loss journey. If you would like more information go to the website www.hcg1234.com they have a toll free number you can call with questions. The company is creative bioscience and their products are made in the US and you can even purchase the HCG at Kmart I believe. I hope this helped!

Makeup Haul

I know I never said anything about makeup, skin care, or hair care, but these things are also important to me. Because when you look good, you feel good and I believe makeup can really help with one's confidence. I know I feel good when I walk out the door with some makeup on, even if it is just lip gloss, eye liner, and mascara. So here is a picture of what I bought today while I was at Sephora!

I bought the Toki Doki Mirror ($5), Hello Kitty Lip Gloss in Peach Pie ($9), and lastly the Stila smudge crayon in antique ($22). All these were purchased by me with my own money.

My first post! Oh the excitement.


Salutations! Since this is my first blog post I just want to go over a few general things about my blog. 
1. I will be updating at least once a week. I will try to do more when I can but I am a full time student and I also work part time.
2. I have used some supplements and weight loss products to help me lose weight, I will review them in a later blog post. 
3. Please don't mind the random Japanese I put in the blogs (I will always have the translation for you). I am thinking about majoring in Japanese so I will be using little bits of it here and there. If it is wrong please feel free to correct me!
4. Lastly if you have any questions or want me to review a certain product (I will research it first and see if it is right for me though so please don't be offended if I say no) just message me or leave a comment!

Thanks so much for taking time out of your day to read these posts. I hope to hear from you soon!
