I am going to try agAin tomorrow to stick with it. Maybe this was not such a good time to begin. We had 2 birthdays and a wedding in the past 2 weeks does it affect the hcg when I overeat like that. And also the round?? I want to lose this weight and be done with it!! I will keep posting and checking this website for inspiration because insure need it. I did a round in may and was down to 136 but gained it all back through the summer. Thanks for your reply. It helps!!! Tim
Okay, well I am doing the injections and not the weight loss drops. It looks like you actually get more food on the drops then you do with the injections or what my MD and pharamicist told me. I am not happy so far. I am hoping that after 10 days I will feel better but they told me to do 40 days of the injections. So I am hoping that this works. I can't do a steak day as I do not eat beef so that kind of frightens me a bit. Also I have some terrible headaches and actually feel kind of sick. I am hoping that all of this passes.
This is the first time that I have tried HCG. Are there any tips for any of you? I just do not want to do this, go through not being able to eat for so long and then find that I am going to feel bad or have problems later in life. I want to be happy and healthy.
So I am working out too but not sure what is going on and whether or not this is going to work for me. My MD did tell me to increase the injection amount if I was not happy with how I felt but I just want to do whatever is going to help me make sure that I lose at least 40 lbs during the diet time. Does anyone know if you inject more HCG do you lose the weight faster? I am going to post this again but if someone answers on here too that might help me. Thanks!
Anyways I thought that I would pop in and say hey since I am just getting started as well. I started on the 15th.
I do want to start this thread over on the new site.. I just registered too! I'll get them going over there...
Hi Amanda! I never have done the diet through a MD.. I always did a bunch of research and went on my own. I've never heard anything about getting more food on the drops than injections. I try to follow Dr. Simeon's original protocol as close as possible. Here's a few tips for ya based on what you have written.... 1. Steak days are not for P2, they are only for maintenance and beyond if your weight goes up. Don't do steak days while on injections/drops 2. I think your biggest indicator if the dosage is correct is hunger. If you are hungry, your dosage is probably too low or you are not drinking enough water. 3. Taking more hcg doesn't really make you lose faster.. most say they lose faster with injections though. 4. Best way to keep the weight off is to be super careful and slowly add things in P3!! I did it hastily and gained 2x now. I have seen MANY people stabilize beautifully though and that is why I am doing it again with great diligence :) 5. Drink lots of water/tea, take digestive enzymes, invest in good quality foods. I'm really making this a way of life and plan to continue to eat like this, but in larger portions, for life!
Best of luck!!! Just keep your eye on the prize and read everything you can on the forum, its so helpful :)
