HCG Loading Phase

One of the sales people that comes to my office has convinced me through her own success that I could succeed in this constant battle waging against my weight by joining her in doing the HCG diet. I had heard and read so many details on the internet about the diet after my cousin sent me an example food plan around a month ago. I kept telling myself that I couldn't do it, but I kept looking at it. All those people raved about all the successes and how this was the only diet that worked for them. The more I puzzled over it I decided that it was probably a sound idea. Then Angel, the sales person, mentioned that she had lost 17lbs in 8 days and I was sold on the idea of trying. I know that I have tried and failed in the past but I felt that I should just give it real effort. The driving push behind all of it was that my best friend and her finance set a wedding date. I cried. And realized that I refused to look like a damn cow at her wedding. She is a tall beautiful blonde and I can't stand up there next to her looking like I weigh 200lbs, which I do. Almost...
Back to the diet - the instructions are as follows;
The first two days are called the "loading phase"
-These two days are suppose to help you load up on fatty foods so that you have energy to get you through the next few days while adjusting to an extremely low calorie diet.
It has been extremely strange for me because for the last few months I have been trying not to eat these types of foods and it was an experience. For the most part, I have been making myself eat peanuts and junk food. I ate Wendy's today for lunch and I got so very sick. So I know that this phase was suppose to be the fun stage, but I truly haven't enjoyed it all that much.
