Hellobikini Getting to her Bikini

Starting Again-Loading day 2

Rate this Entry
I am going to give hcg diet another try as I am desperate.
I had a horrible experience the last time I tried. I am not sure exactly what happened.
I was hungry the entire time and I just couldn't stay on the diet. I adjusted and re-adjusted my dose to no avail
and after some cheats and re-starting I went off hcg mid round and gained another 25+lbs.
I am now heavier than I have been in years.
I should start over. I had 3 successful rounds of hcg, each time doing a successful p3 and sticking to the diet.
I ended with a very long maintenance (leptin reset) after the 3rd round. I was 129lbs and said enough. No more dieting, no more hcg ever. I vowed to eat healthy, keep my sugars and starches low and live without all the crazy diets. I cut my "big" clothes into rags, gave away anything in decent condition, sure I would never gain back the weight.
I gradually started gaining weight. I tried to do small things to prevent, more water, more green tea, a no starch day etc. but I kept creeping up on the scale.
My friend desperate to lose weight, asked me to join her in a round of hcg. I said no, never again. Even though I had been succcessful with 3rounds of the hcg I was hungry and irritable most of the diet, and I wanted to keep the weight off without being so extreme. Unfotunately I continued to creep up....and thus I started another round and it was just a HUGE failure. I never finished the round and now I am heavier than when I started the very first round so long ago.
Almost year has gone by since my failed hcg atempt. Within that time I started many other diet plans and failed at them as well.
So I am starting with mixed feelings. I am committing to 23 days. I hope to do more. I am committing to no matter what at least 23 days. I figure I can get through 23 days. I can tell myself in those moments of difficulty, it is only 23 days. I just need to get through each day, one day at a time. I am hopeful for a smooth round. I really want and need this.

    You are not alone and feeling that last straw. This is a great way to get support and learn from how others cope and succeed. Bottom line is after goal, everyone needs to weigh daily and keep the weight creep in check and under control immediately. All the best to you!!

    I would love to.

    So how is your weight loss going?

    How many times have you done HCG in the past?

    It is very frusterating working so hard to lose the weight just to gain it back.
    I don't believe hcg is a miracle diet that will give you permanent results. After my journey I actually think weight loss maintenance is harder after hcg.
    i do however think it is the best diet for losing weight fast.
    I am really hoping when I get down to my end weight that I can commit to life long changes. I think for me, i have to committ to p-3 for life.
    I had no troubles maintaing in p-3 and I wasn't hungry and it really is not that hard, espeicially while on a roll. I didn't have too much desire for sugar and starches, and it isnt that difficult finding alternatives.
    It was once I started intoducing carbs (sugar and starches) things got hard.
    I also had the emotional issues of being on a diet for life and restricting food for life, so i said screw it, I want to be normal. I will eat carbs and sugar occasionally.
    I knew it was risky for me, and I just really wanted to not have to cut out foods that so many others eat. I guess I felt sorry for myself to be the only one at the party not eating the party food. But now I think I need to accept that is how it is for me.
    LIke a Celiac cant eat gluten, someone with a peanut allergy can't eat peanuts. I can't eat sugars and starches. They aren't even good for you anyway.

    anyway, now I am rambling......good luck.....it is difficult and exciting to be starting again. We need all the support we can get.
    I need to wrap myself around this and be strong.
    Great luck to you.
