Random Thinkings

Random #1 It is happening that a lot of people around me are doing the HCG diet thingy. The idea of it intrigues me and as I see through their experiences that it is not some hokey pill that makes your heart race and makes you make a fool of yourself. I am still in the debating stage plus I want to give my body time to heal and fully recover. But how cool would it be to lose that weight in like a couple of months compared to six months or so.

Random #2 I have become obsessed with weighing myself. It is almost a nightly ritual. I weigh myself at night because I know that is the real me. I get excited because I just know the number will be lower by a few points. Plus I just like to get naked.

Random #3 I am excited for school to start. Not because my kidlets will be gone for the day, because I plan on being in the classroom with them, but because of the things they will learn and the adventures they will experience as they continually learn. We have many adventures at home but it is nothing like opening a book and escaping in it. (plus it will give me a chance to workout more)

Random #4 I so want to get a haircut. I get my haircut every two years and it is sorely hitting that two year mark. I am ready for something new and sexy.

Random #5 Carry On

I weigh myself daily and that is putting a restriction on myself. I have a desire to weigh myself two, three, fours times a day. It can become an obession with me.

I'm with you on the haircut, its been a year for me but I am ready for something new and fun!

I haven't weighed myself in a while, because I think I'm on a mental strike. Ugh.

Looking forward to seeing your new haircut!!! Pics! Pics!

I looked up the HCG diet out of curiosity, and there isn't any supportive research for it outside of the people who profit from the diet. It's not peer-reviewed or scientifically studied.

Point being, I wouldn't touch something that isn't highly studied. It just doesn't strike me as credible. My health isn't worth taking chances on!

i will probably wait until october to get my hair done if we go see family. i only let my sister cut it hence the reason it gets so long. lol i love my long hair it will be hard to let it go.

scarlett thank you for your advice, i will not take it lightly :)

I'm happy to share, Ginger. I enjoy doing research on scientific studies (yes, I'm a medical nerd), especially in items that can affect someone else's health.
It seems as though hard work is what is proven to make the difference: exercise, eating a balanced diet, and keeping a happy mind. I think it has the most benefit :)
