Thread: P2 Be True - mid May starters wanna group up?

Welcome Kelly! We aren't quite as vocal as we were a month or so back...but there are a few of us newly starting rounds...Kim, me and Khollinr, marvless and 13....(last two have been on their round for awhile longer)....the first three just started this week....so good luck and look forward to getting to know you and support you!

Down .4 today suprisingly. I was up from 2am puking my guts out and with diarreah (tmi) and extreme dizzyness. Idk what was wrong with me. I haven't changed my meals at all. There isn't much in my guts on P2 and I spent a lot of time dry heaving. My ribs and back are feeling it today. I still got up and came to work though. With no car I need all the money I can get right now. Still feel a bit dizzy, but other than that I am a bit better. I found the Walden Farms everybody has been talking about! I got the BBQ sauce and baked my chicken in it. I brought it for lunch and am going to nibble on it. Hopefully I can keep it down!

I have another week left OP - next Saturday will be 23 days. I might add another week since this week was a wash with TOM. But my real question is this: There's a 5K coming 9/27 that I've been dying to run in. I'm not in the best 5K shape right now after doing back to back protocols and I'd probably have to start training again. Is this something that you think I could start doing before I'm done with P2 or would that screw things up too badly? It's not really new exercise because I used to run 5K everyday, but I have to admit that I haven't really been running in awhile so my body isn't currently used to it. I haven't done anything more vigerous than yoga and walking all summer. I just miss my hiking and Zumba and running. What should I do?

I'm stalled out BIG TIME. Same as Friday. Stupid TOM. Ugh. At least I'm not gaining though I weighed today despite telling myself I wouldn't until Saturday but now I regret doing it. Ah well.

13 - I find I can do the elliptical and stationary bike pretty easily while in P2. That may help your lungs prepare Also, walking is great prep for running.

Down 3.2 this morning!!! Funny thing is, I dreaded getting on the scale this morning because I didn't feel thin. Weird. Total loss from first two days of VLCD is 5.6. I hope to be below last round's LIW by the end of my first week and if this keeps going, I'll definitely make it. Last round, I had a 3 day stall at the end of my first week so hoping that doesn't happen again.

I know I'm barely into this round, but I feel much less motivated this time around too. The weight I am at now has been my "skinny" weight for most of my adult life so I feel pretty good and I know that's contributing to my lack of motivation. I'm 5'8" and pretty athletically built. In the 160's I'm a size 8/10 and look good/healthy, so I don't have that urgency some of you have spoken of either. But, at 150 I would probably be a more comfortable size 8 and get rid of the excess abnormal fat I still carry in my belly and thighs. Who knows though, maybe I'll hit 150 and the problem areas will look the exact same. Bodies are weird. I just keep reminding myself how easy and great 40 days felt last round and that compared to that, 21 days is nothing. It's only 3 weeks out of my life!

The lack of motivation is also why I decided to participate more on the forum this round. We can keep each other accountable! Good luck ladies!

Hi everybody!

I'm trying to come back for another round, but I'm having trouble mixing. I got my HCG somewhere different this time, and it's totally different than my R1 HCG was. Before, the HCG powder was already in the "permanent bottle" that I used to draw my injections from. I mixed it by injecting the bacteriostatic water into the bottle. That was it. It was done.

THIS time, I have Bacteriostatic water in a bottle, a mixing bottle, and 2 vials - 1 vial has the HCG in it. The other one has sodium chloride in it which I've never used before. I'm so confused on how it all ends up mixed together!! I asked Beth, but I haven't heard back from her yet. Apparently, you can use the Bacteriostatic water OR the sodium chloride to mix with the HCG OR you can mix both together with the HCG!! WTH???? I'm going to look on youtube to see what's on there. If anybody has any ideas, they are most certainly welcome!!
