I've been eating clean for 8 weeks. I've been working out consistently for years but again I'm not where I want to be with weight loss. So I started the HCG on Monday. First off, I've seen a couple of place where load days are two and on the paperwork I got with the drops it says 3.
Second question... those that workout are you seeing a better weight loss or slower? I sure don't want to stop or slow down my workouts. I would feel that I'm undoing all my hard work. Right now I do 3 days of cardio/strength and 2 days of just cardio. My cardio consists of the spin bike and the strength is a plan out of the book New Rules of Lifting for Women. Just curious about how everyone is doing while exercising.

I’m on My Third hCG Diet Load Day (shouldn’t There Only Be Two? I’m Confused)… Exercise Question
Published: June 9, 2010Posted in: Eating & hCG Diet, hCG Diet Protocol, HCG DIET Q&A, Uncategorized
I am in my third week of this diet. I have lost just over 30+ lbs. and my wife is down 20+. I have had no side effects and do not have any hunger or any of the negative issues mentioned. I walk several miles every other day and have plenty of energy. My mood is excellent and I feel great. I did this plan as part of the HCG diet at Green Valley Spa in Utah. It is supervised by several MD’s and medical staff. I know many people want to comment on the ‘safety’ of this diet, however, if you haven’t tried it you really can’t comment. Your body has PLENTY of energy stored in the form of fat. The proper meals on the plan are nutritious and tasty and give you everything to help you lose. The 500 calories are more than enough to fuel your activities and the rest comes from stored fat. Just because the treatment hasn’t been blessed by the FDA doesn’t mean that it isn’t safe or effective. If anyone needs serious weight loss, I highly recommend this program. P.S. I use the drops, they work just as well as the shots. As for working out, it wasn’t part of the original diet but it can’t hurt as you are helping to burn calories and build muscle.
Is Green Valley the only place to do this
Tim,
Did you feel lightheaded or any weakness during your first week of HCG drops? I am experiencing this, and I am wondering if the brand I chose is useless.
Thanks!
Stephanie,
I have been having the same problem and I asked my doctor about it and she said be sure that you do the 2 L of water a day. It helps. I also had to stop a medication that could drop my blood sugar.
I am very excited just ordered. I have a question what is it that I eat on the 2 load days
Well, some people do use 3 Gorge days, because the whole point of the gorge days/load days is to put fat into your fat reserves. Some people feel like it is better to do 3 Gorge Days to be able to get enough fat stored. My wife tried doing 3 days instead of 2 on her 3rd round of HCG Injections <a href="The HCG Diet 411 Blog-3 Gorge Days“>The HCG Diet 411 Blog-3 Gorge Days.

Only two days for loading.
