    Heading out to Calif. next week for my 40 yr class reunion...This is my 2nd round doing hcg...The problem is my last injection is going to be Thur. the 26th and my reunion is the 27th, 28th, & 29th of Aug....I will have no time to do the lcd for the next 3 days after my last injestion on p3...I will be jumping right in to just eating what's being served...What is this going to do to my stablizing?...Would it just be better to stop the injections like the Mon. or Tue. before, so the hcg is out of my system...I'm only doing 21 days this time around...46 days was a beast!...I did pretty well, and have only fluxuated in my weight, 3-4 lbs since my last injestion in April...I wanted to do a 2nd round just before i left for my reunion...I started a bit later than I wanted to, we had so many things going on prier, that this was the best time for me...So i need some suggestions or ideas as to how not to blow this completely!...Thanks you guys!....Michelle

    You need to stop now if you're not going to stick to the diet then because cheating on the end of your round is a recipe for disaster. That said, you can stick to your diet if you really want to. I went to my 40th reunion on Saturday and stuck to my diet with no problem. I simply called ahead to the restaurant and asked them to grill me some chicken. I told them I had dietary restrictions. They were happy to accommodate me.

    But even if you stop today, you will need to stick strictly to P3 or you will go up MAJORLY and be very sorry when you step on the scales. :-(

    Is Thursday your vlcd21?
  3.  # 4permalink
    Oh good call, sista! I thought she said she had done 46 days. 23 days is the bare minimum to be taking hcg. so if Thursday is only day 21, you really need to be taking it through Saturday at least. So if that's the case, I would stay on hcg through the weekend and into early next week to lose anything you gained from the travel.

    Not this thurs, but Next thurs, the 26th is supposed to be my last injection and vlcd21...I know i didn't give myself enough time to complete this round, but wanted to get off about 10 more lbs before my reunion so this is where i'm at and don't want to completely blow it...So, just need to know if i should stop injections this weekend and do the vlcd the next 3 days afterwards, and make sure hch is out of my system, so I can eat some of the foods served at my reunion, or what?... Would that be better than going the full 21 days?...Just not sure what the best thing is to do...I would like to get off at least 5 more lbs by this weekend...How reasonable is that?...

    Unlikely to lose 5 pounds in a week at this stage. :-( I'd stay on it through the weekend and then do the best I could at the reunion. You don't have to eat the food to have a great time. My reunion was a blast and I just ate my grilled chicken and a salad with lemon squeezed on top. Then when you get home on Monday, see where your weight is and if you need to stay on it a couple more days to lose anything you gained over the weekend, you can. I wouldn't stop before 23 days though or you risk not stabilizing. That's the minimum time.

    So stop injections this Sunday...stick to vlcd through the following weekend then i can do the injections again after the reunion... and finish the diet?...I guess i'm kinda confused about this...explain

    No. I'm saying stay on the injections all the way through your reunion until you get home. Then you can reassess to see if you need to do a couple more days to lose anything you might have gained from your travel.

    if you think it's going to be too hard to try to minimize any cheating, i think i'd stop 3 days before your reunion, do P3 while you're gone, and then resume your hcg when you get back. you'd be taking your break too early, but that might be better than staying on the hcg and pigging out (depending upon how much self-control you think you'll have that weekend!). :)

    It's probably six of one and half a dozen of the other. Cheating even in P3 will cause a huge gain too. :-(
