    I've been reading this forum for a few weeks now and this is the first time I've posted. I start the VLCD today - and after loading for the last 2 days - I welcome the restrictive diet with open arms.

    I've experienced waves a intense nausea - guess I'm not used to all that fatty foods. I loaded on eggs, sausages, cheesecake and a lot of cashews & walnuts. A few quarter pounder meals at Mcdonalds too...lol.

    Preload is 189.4
    Post load is 191.6

    I want to lose 30 lbs - I've had friends who've lost 70 + in several rounds on this diet. I'm anxious/nervous about what my results will be. I hate this stuffed feeling and the nausea is worse.....I'm hoping to drop after today and begin this process.

    I need motivation - and losing is the best motivator - well that, and reading all the success stories here. This Forum is a lifesaver.

    p2 starts now :) - Happy losing.

    Happy losing, mt! My sisters and I are two days right behind you. We start our gut-loading today, and (I, at least) couldn't be more happy, excited, nervous about the unfamiliar process and tightly restricted diet. Still, if it works it'll be worth it! And that's what we need to keep our eye on. The end result. We can do anything for 40 days (or 20, depending on how long you want your round to be). I found the best motivating statement online the other day. I've got it as a post it note on the fridge, and this is it: Dieting is hard. Being fat is hard. Pick your hard.

    The shortest round is 23 days on hcg, just so you are clear! :-) There seems to be some misinformation floating around that you can stop short of that 23 days and you need that long on hcg for your hypothalamus to rest. You will do great, Varden! You can do anything for 40 days. Love that quote!!!

    Sorry, Grammy! You're right. I was only counting injection days. Guess if I'm going to participate on the forums, I need to use the right vocabulary. :)

    Wait a minute. I thought it was 20 days injections plus three days VLCD and 40 days injections plus 43 VLCD. Is this incorrect? That's actually kinda of an important thing to know at this juncture. lol
