I never do bacon on low carb, I can never find any without sugar, they all add sugar, so it's off the list for me (even turkey bacon has sugar). I wish I could find breakfast sausage, turkey breakfast ...
I'm on day 11 of my 5th round and I don't think I can stomach any more meat. I'd like to try some eggs. I've read that we can have 1 egg and 3 egg whites as the protein. So far, I have been preparing all of my meats on the George Forman grill, or in a skillet with broth. How should I cook eggs since I can't use any oil/butter? Thanks!

Okay, finished the PI, ended at exactly LDW from 2 weeks before. Since my Planned Interruption was 14 days, I did 2 days of loading during which I gained 5.6 lbs. Frankly did not enjoy the load days all that much. I was really surprised that I just couldn't eat like I used to and much of what I thought I was craving, like Pizza, I didn't enjoy at all The first load day, I did include sugar and starches, but found my cravings, quickly satisfied and found the sweetness almost sickening. ...
Just note for my reference: Started P2 in January of 2021, 2nd week of--during 30 days of P2 lost 22 lbs. Went on 2 weeks of Planned Interruption, and was able to maintain. So at start of PI was 185 and ended PI at 185. During 2 weeks of PI not once did i go over LDW enough to have to do a correction. So did great during PI, which I viewed as trial run of P3 since I ate only on p3 foods. Since i was off hcg for 16 days--I am doing a reload. Will note lbs gained during ...
__________________________________________ Please note: these instructions are primarily centered around mixing liquid hCG. But...if you have dry (powdered) hCG, you can still use these directions. The adjustment you would have to make only applies if you are using dry hCG; where the amount of liquid is added. So, if you do NOT have 'liquid hCG' and still want to use these directions, then do this: ADD 1 mL more of bacteriostatic water to your vial -- but only add that extra 1 mL ...
__________________________________________ For example's sake, I'm going to use the '2,000 IU' hCG strength. Please note: whether you are using liquid or powdered (dry) -- hCG....that does not matter. With these mathematical formulas, we are only attempting to figure out how many IUs you will be dosing with....or, what amount of IUs you have already been dosing with. There are actually only 3 different mathematical formulas you can use to figure out ...
Well, I didn't blog every 7-10 days as I thought I would. Here it is, close to 30 days down of Round 1 (calling it round 1 since it has been so many years ago I did the protocol). And, it still works! Woohoo. Very low calorie day #26, down 19 lbs, as of this morning. That's average of .73 lbs per day. So, yes Protocol still works. Plans have changed since I first started this round. Original plans were to do a 40 day round, but I am feeling a little burned out, my vial ...
