Just thinking maybe your dose is off and that is slowing you down? What do you think? 175 seems high. (looks like you have lots of experience though!)

35lbs. In 40 days! !! That's Äwesome
How strict where you? What where you eating?

I've done 90vlcds before and lost 35 lbs. that's with a couple cheat days.

Looks like you are off to a pretty good start, good luck on your protein shake day, they are usually good for a 2-3lb loss for me. Are you planning on any interruptions for your long round or just going to grunt it out and stick to P2 the whole time?

Jasmine your experiment went great if you reshaped that well, good luck with JUDDD, I think you'll like it. After HCG it's a breeze, sticking to 500 EOD is a no biggie for us since we are use to doing it. Plus there are lots of low cal foods you can eat so it's not like you have to have to fast all day if you don't want to.

Think I'll try to talk Dh into going out to lunch tomorrow for my last non diet day for a couple of weeks. Not sure I'll feel up to it if the cramps keep up though. At least if I think of it as just a 2 week cycle it doesn't make me want to cry as much as thinking of it as a round. 14 days isn't that long, though I shouldn't be doing 2 days of loading if I'm just doing a 2 week cycle but well LOL

I'm so sorry about your ovarian cysts Ouch, must be painful.
Thanks, I hope I have a big loss.

Poo.. No interruptions, I'll grunt it out, hee hee

@nexuz9. You've done 90 days?! That's the longest I've heard of. Was that injection and if so did you come across immunity issues or did you skip? Was that strict POP with the 2 cheat days or rogue? How did your stabilisation go? Sorry for all the questions just that I've got a bit of hcg left and was just going to chuck it but if others have been on long rounds I might re-think. Shame to waste.

Another question for roguettes....did anybody get binge eating issues after doing hcg.? My first BED ever came after doing hcg. I've been fine for while and now during this round the monster has reared it's fugly head again. I'm seeing a glaring correlation,

Hi Jasmin
It was injections with Sunday skip days. I reach immunity at around 90vlcds. I was a POP other than adding Think Thin bars and protein shakes. I would plan an interruption to cheat. I stayed at goal weight for about a year. I have now gained it all back tho. I started eating junk :/
I would finish your entire batch. I stabilize with longer rounds.
What day are you on? How many lbs. are you looking to drop? How many lbs. are you down?

How' you doing ladies?

I've been dragging my feet and feeling lethargic since the weekend. On Monday I FINALLY shifted from 173.3 to 169.2lbs! I was hoping this would be a week of continuous losses, but TOM arrived yesterday (and it's kicking my ***!) so I may not get any more losses this week... I thought I had less injections but apparently there's at least 2-3 shots left, which is fine, but because I'm not losing as steadily, I was more than ready to move on to P3 by Monday. Someone in an earlier post mentioned TOM and when to start P2 (or a planned interruption?) and I can relate... I did start this round a week before my cycle so of course I was stalling during week 2 thanks to TOM and water retention and now it may have stalled my losses again. So lesson learned. On my next and hopefully final round (probably around June), I am going to start my round immediately after the end of TOM. I seem to recall Dr. Simeon talking about this, but my *** wasn't paying attention clearly .

@Poolside, regarding if the shots I'm on a legit, I'm not the kind of person for whom a placebo would EVER work (I know my epic stalls are not a good ad campaign). Lol! I'm sorry it's taken me a while to respond, but I promise to contact her to find out if she still has enough to distribute (I hope so, cause I need one more round too) and then I can pass on her details to you. When do you plan to start your next round? I know you said you're mentally done with this round and I feel you, babe.

Chat soon. I need to pick up some more p2 friendly food and get the hell up, cause I've been laying on the couch all day nursing crumps

I'm 49 days I had quick initial loss but now just bouncing up and down. I've lost 16 lbs incl load. I wld like to lose 6 more but this is vanity lbs to give me some leeway, so this is prob under set point and very very hard to lose. I'm not POP as I omit fruit but mix veggies, add more meat, drink diet Pepsi. The food bores the heck out of me and I've had 2 scary binge episodes that I know is triggered by the dietary restrictions. If I continue it will be protein shakes, I find them easier than the small amounts of food if that makes sense.
