    parafluie I do not know if this will work for you but try dangling the leg over the side of the bed on sore side. Also have some one gently pull your leg while you are laying down. The hip joints loosen a bit on hcg... so I have been told. I guess because it is a pregnancy hormone and a baby has to get out eventually.

    good evening all,
    this morning woke up to a .2 gain. Ah, well...not sure what happened...taking it in stride. The husband and I and my only daughter ( 4 boys and one girl) went off today for some shopping. Picked up some strawberries since they are going on sale now. Husband got two new pair of glasses which he needed. While we waited for the glasses he took us out to lunch. I have dreaded this. The out to eat, I can't control how the food is fixed. I can say it has easily been over a year since the last time I ate out. Of course it had to be mexican. My daughter has recently lost 17 pounds and is as careful as I am in what we are eating. We finally settled on a a grilled steak for me and a grilled shrimp for her, trading pieces. We skipped all the rice and beans and asked for the grilled veggies instead, which was onions and red peppers and zucchini. No chips, no salsa and lots of water. I ate part of it, brought home the rest as well as the warm tortillas for the boys. Did I do good? I have no idea. I don't know what it was cooked with. But I ate until I wasn't starved and did the best I could.

    I am still cold...but mentally better today. Maybe adjusting to the husband being home, maybe adjusting to the hhcg...probably both, mostly like just getting out of the house. ( smile) I keep wondering if I am asking too much of my body. 5 foot almost 1 inch tall...and 116-118. that is a good...I want 10 more to go and I think that isn't a whole lot, but maybe it is too much for me. IDK...so I said mentally I was better, but not there yet. slept better last night...day by day...rambling, rambling, rambling...

    Good morning everyone! Doing the happy dance this morning. I lost the 9.8 lbs. I gained since finishing R1 (with my lag in re-starting R2, won't do that again). I'm back at my LDW this morning, having also lost my load weight for a total of 13.6 so far! For me, at LEAST 8 hours sleep a night and at LEAST 1/2 gal. of water a day, on top of my teas really works. I hope everyone has a blessed Sunday and a whoosh on the scales!

    parafluie - Have you heard about the B-12 shots? They really help with energy levels. I've never tried them before, but I have some ready for this round. "Better" on this diet is a day without hunger except before meal times. There's even days where we get a sort of hcg "high"... but those sure don't happen enough! lol

    marvless - So far not weighing isn't bothering me at all.

    Three more days of travel and I'll be back to my norm. VLCD5 and all is well. I'm looking forward to skipping on Tuesday to see if I can do anything to prevent the hunger. I'm hungry a lot, but not to extremes.

    cbasla - Sugar is a nightmare! It actually puts me to sleep sometimes! Talk about sap all the energy out of ya! I have noticed that my cravings for sugar have increased with the hcg diet. As soon as I have ANY I want more and the cravings begin. I think it's best to just stay away from it completely... at least the majority of the time. What day of VLCD are you on now? Over 13 lbs is LOVELY!

    pug - Try Natural CALM to get yourself moving. Great stuff. It's the only stuff that works consistently for me. (I don't like the Smooth Move Tea either)

    brick - It sounds like you did the best you could under the circumstances, but I wouldn't be surprised by a little gain this morning if I was you. Just rest assured it's probably water weight from the salt and it will come back off quickly. I'm still cold too... but I got a GREAT new fleecy warm sweater in PINK. lol... my daughter was stunned that I would wear pink at all and my husband liked it on me. (I'm sorta a Goth girl)

    Under150 - I've always been that way as well.. "need to see the scale moving down". I think my terror over how much I've gained since my last round is just stronger than that need this time. lol

    Grats on all the great losses everyone! Keep it up!

    Zemi, Funny, I was at ADC this morning and put the b12 shots on my wishlist. My grandmother used to get b12 shots, and I thought it was a lotta hooey. But, I'm willing to try anything. I don't think these would arrive during my P2 (don't know how long I'll do it). I'm sure I can stand it for two more weeks! But I am concerned about the crepy ugly belly skin (I used to have such a pretty, flat belly!) which is to be expected. I've released almost 25 lbs since September, and I'm not a kid.

    Nevertheless, I'd like to get under 130 and maintain. Maybe the skin will smooth eventually (when pigs fly) However, I intend very soon to win the lottery and get a face and body lift! Please send me energy for NEXT Saturday!!

    Zoe, thanks! That makes sense to me, because indeed, the whole area loosens its ligaments etc. Thanks for the remind! As for treatment. that sounds like a good, Neuromuscular Therapy self-solution! If I were "allowed" to go for treatment, I'd go to my NMT guy, and work that out more.

    Luckily, the pain seems to have resolved, but I'll sure keep that in mind.
