I turned 40 last July. I started the hcg diet early April, and in 40 days I lost 33 pounds. I am so thankful! I plan on doing another round to get to 140, so 20 more pounds. It has changed my life so much because NOTHING I have tried worked, until I tried this. I love telling people about it too in hopes they can better their lives also! I am a foster Mom, a daycare Mom, & a Mom of 3 of my own, & 2 adopted children. Kids are a huge part of my life. I enjoy finding new recipes & creative ways to trick Mother nature with foods that are a healthier version of what your body thinks it wants =)
