For someone who asked about how many loading days--several versions of the diet. The first one I went on said 3 loading days. The different diets also have a difference in foods.
Also--if you are hungry, grammy told me to use 13 drops 3 times a day instead of 10 drops 3 times a day. It made all the difference. You also will feel better after about a week on the drops and the diet.
I'm going to have to load through today as I'm traveling--meaning 4 days basically.
Oh--and for the person who asked grammy a question about spinning and then didn't get an answer--just ask her again until you get an answer. There are several experts on the board--someone will see it and answer you eventually. Don't get too overwhelmed with details either. It really is quite a simple diet--there are just a lot of little ideas that work for some and not for others.
Good Morning! So i woke up this morning very enthusiastic. i could not wait to get on the scale. I used the bathroom and hopped on . i was suprised to see a slight weight loss after all the food i ate yesterday . from 137.8 to 137.2 WOW! i have given my self my very first injection on my own and it was so Easy! I though i would hurt since i have never done it befor, but i was so focused i felt nothing! ok so day two of loading here i come!! WOOT
Hello hello! Today is my 1st loading day and I am excited and nervous all at once!
Happy to have a place to connect with others going through it at the same time.
Best of luck and happy loading!
Well, my loading days are over and I am on day one of the VLCD.
Nothing to eat so far this morning, just water and my drops. Will eat lunch in a few and then continue on with snacks and dinner.
Although I must admit, I did get sick twice this morning. Has this happened to anyone else?
and to add insult to injury, its pizza day at work. (throw me to the wolves why don't cha!)
Let's Get This Round Started!
also just started HCG green homeopathy sublingual drops. Taking 6 drops - 6 times daily. I have had great success so far and lost the 4lbs gained during my loading days in the first day, I am currently on my 5th day and down 8 lbs. I subsituted 1% low fat cottage cheese for meats last three lunches and haven't had a problem. This has been a great experience, although today I have flu like symptoms, with research I am finding that is not unusual. I started to feel weak in the morning so I had an orange and that seems to have helped. no real hunger pangs, slight headache so I did take an aspirin (only med approved) and still losing the weight. Loving this, would like to lose 40lbs, have already ordered the drops for my second round which i will start 6 weeks following the end of my phase 3 completion. Great to have this forum as I go for support. Good luck to you all!
ApeyDee,
I did a successful round with my husband 3 years ago. Like you said, you're supposed to be storing up during the load days. So, I would forego the spin class. However, you totally rock for spinning!!!!!!!!!

Hi everyone!
Me and my DH are loading today and tomorrow and will begin the VLCD on Sunday. This will be our second time with hcg injections, so we hope to get the weight off and keep it off. My old forum was closed, so I'm looking forward to getting to know everyone here, brushing up on the dos and don'ts, and lending each other support.
Happy losing,
MMAC
Today is my last loading day. Yay! So far I've gained 3 lbs from 1.5 days (I'm doing 2.5 loading days). I will be a little worried till I actually see the scale go down Monday morning!!! I will be glad to be done with loading. I'm not really enjoying it that much, though I am hardly a healthy eater on average!
Hi! Today is my first load day, and I'm in the Pac NW, too. Good luck to both of us!Hello hello! Today is my 1st loading day and I am excited and nervous all at once!
