Finally broke the 30 pound barrier today. My clothes are fitting much better and I know that I look much healthier too. My losses have been slowing down, but for now I still plan on going for a long round of 40 shots plus the skip days plus the three vlcdays after stopping hcg, so actually about 48 days. My only real concern at the moment is my LACK of appetite. Sure I could work up an appetite for things that I'm not allowed to have at this time, but the thought of cooking and ...

I am just starting the diet and want to know if you can use moisurizers, vitamins and laxatives while on the diet.
I think that I am half-way through my vlcdays now. I have been skipping the hcg shot one day a week (Sundays) and taking a B-12 shot instead. There have been a couple of days when I have gained - .9 once and .7 another time, but I have always lost the weight the next day. There have been no serious stalls, although I have been expecting one this week, as it often seems to happen about this time from what I have read. I've been on vacation for about ten days now, and am extremely ...
Just dropped 2.5 lbs. I felt somewhat tired yesterday. My body felt like it was lightly sore from a phantom workout & needed a bit more rest. In the evening, a friend invited my dogs & I for a walk & I lasted over an hour without problem. I did not feel like eating most of the day, which lead to a late lunch and dinner. I actually did not finish about 100 g of the cabbage I made for dinner due to feeling "stuffed," though I enjoyed the taste of the Szechwan ...
I lost 3.5 lbs overnight! Ah.. I can breath again! My worries caused by the loading are gone.. now, what to eat? : ) The inflammation under my breasts is gone - I can feel my ribs once again without that crazy puffy layer of fat - myxedema! Fun, fun, fun!
I gained 1.5 pounds from loading yesterday. I feel very round and have urinated on the hour, sometimes twice an hour, all day. It seems like I am feeling as I should. I bought the scale yesterday, as I have never allowed myself to own one in the past so I wouldnt be haunted by the numbers. That has been my biggest struggle today - not jumping on it after every visit to the bathroom. I know that gaining for the load days is necessary, but all the usual worries about "whether ...
Hello HCG Gang! I am so excited to start that I don’t know what to say first. I am 34 years old and recently relocated to San Diego - my childhood dream to live in CA. One month into getting here, my body gave out & my brain function went to zero - I couldn’t count money, couldn’t drive, and did not know who I was in a store for about 20 minutes until a dear friend came in and found me. I am suffering from everything under the sun, including ...
I felt so ill from loading that it was a true relief on vlcd1 to eat very little. I've been taking the 125 iu sub-q and have some dried corion in the fridge in case I need to mix to supplement the dosage, but so far I haven't really been hungry. Sure, I get twinges when I see or think about something I've really liked to eat or drive past places that had my favorite items (like Panera's Sierra Turkey sandwich), but overall I have been OK. Out of fear that my thyroid issues or age or heart medications ...
I've been trying to get started on the HCG diet for four months now. To reassure my husband, I promised that I would get approval from my doctors, (specifically my newly needed cardiologist), have our GP oversee the diet and use a local pharmacy. Several weeks ago everything was lined up, with the sticking point of the dosage. My compounding pharmacist (who knows more about the diet than my GP) insists that Dr. Simeon used 125 iu dosages and that I should start at the same. However, I have ...
