Thread: Cheating and dosage

Are you still craving now? Is the hunger you've been experiencing quite strong? Like strong enough that you can't ignore it or banish it with a cup of hot tea?

If so, and you have had 4 injections so far, you can skip your dose tomorrow, and we can see which way you need to adjust. I suspect from your account of being very hungry in the morning that the adjustment probably should have been up rather than down. But we can't know for sure until you do a skip day. Usually, you need to be on the same dose for 4 days before doing a skip day, but it looks like you've only done one day at 100iu, is that correct?

If so, we can still get a fairly good idea from a skip day. If you decide to skip your dose tomorrow, pay attention to your hunger levels ONLY starting about 4PM or early evening. (What happens in the earlier part of the day doesn't matter.) If hunger is stronger from 4pm on, you will raise your dose the next day to 150iu. If hunger goes away around 4PM, it means your dose was too high.

Each dose overlaps the last two, so just changing dose without doing a skip day takes 3 days for you to get to your adjusted dose. Which means you are not comfortable for days, and you are not losing optimally. The skip day gets you the info you need to get on track right away.

Please post how your solution was mixed (amount of HCG ius to mixing solution milliliters), and what number you are pulling to on your U-100 syringe. Just to make sure you are taking the dose you think you are.

It would be unusual to need only 100iu or less just beginning your first round.

What number do you pull to on your syringe to get 125iu dose?

Is it 12.5 or .125? If so this is at 1:1 mixing ratio which is pretty common for prefilled syringes from clinics.

.....I will try skipping tomorrow and follow your advice and I will definitely let you know how I feel.

ok, so we have established the mixing ration at 1:1. Info for future rounds: This ratio does work, but its very potent, which means its very easy to make dosing mistakes as the increments are so small. If you have occasion to do another round and can mix for yourself, we recommend 1:2 or even 1:4 ratio HCG to bacteriostatic water. More water means accurate adjustments are easier, less is left in the needle making dose more accurate, and the extra water is thought to help the HCG disperse better in your tissues.

Please report back around 4pm or so today and I'll help you assess the next step.

But did the hunger/cravings get worse in the late afternoon to early evening? That would be a definitive sign to increase. Its possible the extra protein blunted that effect though.

At least we know that your hunger did not improve on a dose reduction. So it seems that you need to increase. The dose you want is 150iu on your next injection. That would be 15 on your syringe.

You may find that you feel better pretty quickly, but certainly by the second day.
