I absolutely am in LOVE with this recipe. I could eat this a few times a week regardless of what phase I'm in and be quite content. Note though that coconut aminos is not p2, but it's a nice alternative to Braggs liquid aminos which has soy and can cause gains/stalls with some folks. I haven't had a problem with coconut aminos though. You can always substitute ACV if you want to stay completely OP.

Took a ten day PI in the middle of my P2 round. My first round, I lost about 26 lbs. Second round was kind of a bust - lots of cheats, but the PI helped me get my head back in the game and just DO THIS RIGHT! On intermountain hhcg pellets this time, tried those before with success, I think my drops I had in the beginning of p2 didn't work..not sure exactly what was up. This forum keeps me going. Love the Lovely Losers thread and the losers on there immensley!

I remember this awesome forum! It's what pushed me through my first few rounds of hhcg back in 2011 where I lost 57 lbs! I have NO EXCUSES. I let myself go, it's my fault. But after months and months of contemplating almost gaining back everything that I lost over the last few years, I finally started hhcg again and am on my VLCD3 of R1 with a total of 4.4 lbs lost. I realize most of it is water weight, but I'll take it. I haven't really been hungry but moreso need to rewire my brain to keep busy ...

Haven't been on here in a while. Thought I'd break the ice. Into 4th week of r4p2. Down to 164.2 (so about 15 lbs this round including loading weight). The hard part is staying on protocol! Have two more weeks of drops and I'm calling it. Hope I can get down to at least 160 to start p3

OKay...yo-yoing between 174 and 175. Many factors come into play here....little cheats here and there, not enough sleep, TOM, stress, etc. I'm hoping to break through to 173 by Wednesday, if not sooner. I'm at 174 now and only 14 more pounds till goal and p3. Wow...this second round is a lot tougher physically and mentally. I feel more hungry and lacking energy....

I decreased my dose from 10/3 to 9/3, but sometimes I forget to take my dose at around the same time...so that may ...

Being a mother to five great boys is the best thing that has ever happened to me and ever will! I'm so proud to be a mommy!

Doing well with 2nd round...already lost 5 lbs in 3 days. Didn't load as well this time, but I don't notice any hunger pangs, and am still losing well. Hope I can shed at least another 20. That would be great!

Good luck to all you HCGers!

Junior Mints - CHECK!
Kung pao chicken rice bowl from Panda Express - CHECK!

Possible disaster on the scale tomorrow - probably.

It was all worth it.

Got a lot accomplished today and now I'm pooped! Feel confident, invigorated, hopeful, faithful, loved/cared for and STRONG!!!! Nothing will get me down. Absolutely NOTHING! I have been through too much in my life to give up now...and I have much to fight for, and to continually do my best. Thanks for all the prayers and support! They mean so much.

I'm stabilizing around 181 - 182 which is below LDW (182.8). Only one more week before Round 2. I will commence my next round regardless ...

As I reflect, and draw on my family and friends and God for support, I am feeling stronger, more confident, and more determined to see my trials through...to the end. I know this despair and heartache is just temporary and I've been through hard time before...I can do this. There is no option but to fight for right and get back into my home, with my beautiful children. I will do whatever it takes. Whatever it takes.

Down another .5 today. I've been eating starchy stuff like breads, ...
