SweetPea March 2nd, 2021, 07:34 PMThanks Leez! Good to know, will be close to summer before a new round and don’t want it to be any longer than I have to be.

Dubbles March 2nd, 2021, 05:38 PMThank you so much Leez!!! Hope all is well your way:)
SweetPea March 2nd, 2021, 05:12 PMWhat a wonderful report, Sweet Pea!
Especially that you were able to maintain through P3 & P4.
Sounds like you are off to a great start. :)

Hello Everyone! Hope your week is off to a lovely start and you're well. Enjoying grape flavored sparkling water on VLCD2 with a loss of 2.6 lbs.
Protocol note for anyone wondering about exercise in P2 and if they should start it:
The exercise guideline in the protocol is that it
Yes, a 30 day round is a good choice. You will stabilize just as well with a 30 or more day round as with a 40 day one.
Leez March 2nd, 2021, 03:47 PMQuestion, Leez, I know 40 days is longest someone should be on HCG INJECTIONS. I am going to do another round, wondering if a 30 day round is considered
Dubbles March 2nd, 2021, 02:22 PMAmen to that,! Simeons said we can be tiresome sometimes, when patients try and tweak the protocol. Ha! You're actually not much of a tweaker tho!
Dubbles March 2nd, 2021, 12:25 PMThanks for the information !! Fingers crossed.... last time it took 52 days to lose 12 lbs. Cheers to "LESS" of us !! lol
Lovelife March 2nd, 2021, 12:06 PMWhilst walking this evening, my neighbour and I had an a-ha moment
She had a reasonable round, but like me, started stalling after we put in serious
Sounds like 2.0 should work well for you. There will still be stalls. But you should find a way to eliminate that glass of wine. I love wine and it
wilsonblack March 2nd, 2021, 11:37 AMThanks missM and Dubbles
I did a bit of reading up on metabolic Slowdown... and I am wondering if my sudden 7.5 kilometer daily walk combined with
I first tried HCG in 2005 and studied quiet a bit. I've done a long round every year in January to get me back on track from my fun summer snacks on
Lovelife March 2nd, 2021, 09:25 AMYvonne, so agree with all Miss M said! I have been thinking about you--you've had a lot going on, with work, after your accident, and your friend's DX--it's
Dubbles March 2nd, 2021, 08:14 AMBetterdays, way to go! Sounds like you are having a great round. There is not really much I can add to what has been said already--we all tend to plan
Dubbles March 2nd, 2021, 07:54 AMWell, I had a tiny downward scale movement but not much going on in that department for past couple of days. I felt a little better yesterday, meaning
justgitterdone March 2nd, 2021, 07:48 AMGlad you checked in, Yvonne. I was getting concerned, even though I knew this was such a crazed time for you.
Bravo on all your accomplishments
Morning all...
one more weigh in to LIW and the scale honoured me with 100gms..Whoopee!!
I am not ungrateful, I did not expect much
Thanks so much, ladies! Really appreciate you!
Betterdays March 1st, 2021, 09:11 PMYou are having awesome losses. Congrats!
If you skip on March 2, you can skip again on March 7th. 4 doses is the minimum consecutive doses
BetterDays I agree, starting P3 on a weekend is a big plus. A lot of doing this protocol is timing and making things fit into our life schedule. You've
LinderLou March 1st, 2021, 07:30 PMHello!
A little update and a question.
Today was day 17 of VLCD and I’m down to 170.0 so far! That’s 22 pounds down from
That is a brilliantly written article, Leez! Truly, truly great. Thank you for writing it!
This was my favorite part:

Thanks LL. Glad you enjoyed it.
There would be a lot of questions to get down to how and why the stalls occur. But for the most part,
Hello All!! Very intrigued reading this blog about 2.0 Love the updates!
I started HCG P2 today. First VLCD day. I have done HCG several
Happy Monday and March everyone!
Had a nice P3 weekend with some good foods. Salads with avocado, mixed vegetables and "real" salad
You may be ok with the calories in the Gaterade Zero, but you're right, the chemicals are not good. It contains sucralose and modified cornstarch. The
Leez March 1st, 2021, 09:10 AMThanks Dubbles. Sounds like you are getting back in the swing of things. Good luck on your last 2 weeks. I saw your post this morning. Hang in there
wilsonblack March 1st, 2021, 08:39 AMThanks, JGD! I *just* read as much in Linda Prinster's book, but it's always good to get confirmation from a seasoned veteran.
Tracy,
Good Morning everyone! Guess we'll move over to here? March 1st, wow time is flying. Next week, is that when we do the daylight savings return?
Dubbles March 1st, 2021, 08:15 AMGood morning JGD! There is probably nothing I truly enjoy more than a good hamburger, I love meatloaf--but the really lean ground beef, at least

Dollylion March 1st, 2021, 07:47 AMGood Luck to you as you finish round, hope you get to where you'd like to end, scale-wise. But it's just a number. And very hopeful extending at all
Dubbles March 1st, 2021, 07:46 AMHello All, just a quick warning do not buy your products from this vendor. The product this vendor sold me was bad, it was supposed to be alcohol based
Dollylion March 1st, 2021, 07:44 AMcongrats!! 23lbs is a very successful round. Sounds like the inches part went great as well.
wilsonblack March 1st, 2021, 07:41 AMthanks again. My point was where in past rounds I was craving phase 3 foods at this point. Right now, I am really not to be honest. I am not craving
wilsonblack March 1st, 2021, 07:38 AMRabbit rabbit! Yay for March! So many birds out this morning!
MissM, no answer from me on your sweetener query, Leez or Coco will certainly
Monk fruit should be fine
justgitterdone March 1st, 2021, 07:11 AMTo best of my knowledge, monk fruit is fine for P3.
justgitterdone March 1st, 2021, 07:11 AMMissM, how many total P2 days did you end up doing? Curious because our starting weight after load were similar.
Maybe you will have another
One of the things that seems to help me is increasing my Celtic Sea Salt intake if I'm feeling tired, weak, or light headed. Glad your step away from

DivineMissM March 1st, 2021, 06:34 AMGood morning, and happy Monday! It's a new day, a new week, and a new month. I don't know about you, but I'm really looking forward to it!
Dang it, no crawfish to be found Saturday. Ended up at a local seafood joint after going to 4 different places and had a little grilled fish (no butter)
wilsonblack March 1st, 2021, 06:20 AMI am sure we all wish you would continue to check in through P3 at least, but understand you need to do what is right for you. Good luck on your last

Hello to all of the Lovely Losers out there from sdwis aka Coco. This is your thread for MARCH 2021.
This joyful and jubilant group
I went back and read the passage addressing this in the protocol, and beef is in the menu list, so it is not that it is disallowed in P2 for those that
Leez February 28th, 2021, 07:32 PMI’m going to respectfully disagree with this. Beef is allowed if it’s lean enough. It is true that a long time a go Americans did not have
justgitterdone February 28th, 2021, 06:49 PMOh no! I thought organic beef was okay!
I know. Its pretty amazing how you can be satisfied with just chicken and fish for weeks on end.
Viva la HCG magic. ^_^
The protocol
I didn’t realize we weren’t supposed to have beef at all, but I actually only had it once during my p2 , and barely had it during planned
Dubbles February 28th, 2021, 05:44 PMThere is a lot of discussion lately about beef in P2, so this is a general guideline post for you to take into consideration.
I don't want
JGD, upping protein a tad sounds like it might be a good idea, I’m sure Leez will be able to advise. I’m always a little fatigued in P2,
Dubbles February 28th, 2021, 02:46 PMYou might be right Leez, but it looks super duper lean, leaner than the 96%, so I think it will make a good P2 choice.
Good luck with your
Thanks so much Tracy, you posted at just the right time for me. II needed that bit of encouragement. Just had my first back to p2 meal. 3 1/2 oz
Dubbles February 28th, 2021, 11:00 AMHi everyone! I took a few days off but have been reading and liking!
I've found myself in an unplanned interruption and will hop back into P2 next
JGD, I did private messenger MIss M, telling her how much her postings have meant and helped all of us. I wish she would continue to post, update as
Dubbles February 28th, 2021, 10:10 AMI don’t know about everyone else, but I would love for you to keep us updated while you’re in P3. Since P3 is just as important as P2 I love
justgitterdone February 28th, 2021, 09:48 AMThey grind it fresh at the halal meat market. I also found another one that grinds 98% lean.
justgitterdone February 28th, 2021, 09:37 AMWow. 100% lean ground beef. That is pretty amazing. The leanest I've seen is 97-98. I guess I haven't shopped in the right places.
Last day before LIW. I'll likely continue checking in this week through P2. P3 begins on Thursday and right now my sense is that's when I'll take a hiatus
DivineMissM February 28th, 2021, 08:17 AMEnjoying this conversation about loading and unhappy gains and food sensitivities. Super helpful, so thanks, everyone. I think I discovered a turkey sensitivity
DivineMissM February 28th, 2021, 08:08 AMHappy Sunday everyone! It is a gloomy, rainy Sunday--had thunderstorms earlier--but rain is necessary for new growth that will soon follow with spring
Dubbles February 28th, 2021, 08:06 AMYou’ll likely lose the loading weight by 2nd day. Most of it is probably water retention. I wouldn’t worry about it.

Thanks Ladies for all your feedback and support! Back to p2 tomorrow! I’m ready !
Dubbles February 27th, 2021, 06:33 PMHopefully, I didn't confuse anyone with my definition. I probably should have not used the term clean, because your way is also a clean way in the sense
Leez February 27th, 2021, 03:32 PMThanks so much for the support, everyone. I appreciate it!
DivineMissM February 27th, 2021, 01:41 PMSorry that my definition of clean differed from yours, Leez. Didn't mean to confuse anyone!
DivineMissM February 27th, 2021, 01:39 PMIf the potato is considered too starchy, I’ll definitely skip it, I was only going to eat for the butter part. I’m not a huge butter fan
