I was very hungry yesterday, especially later in the day ... That's not so great. I'm checking in with my doc today ..... See what she says. If anyone has any suggestions I'd love them

Hi,
me and my husband are doing the drops..the first 2 days he had a headache to...he adjusted his dosage down a tiny bit from .038 to .035 and it helped...hasn't had one since. Maybe your dr. can help you with that
CONGRATS on the drop..a drop is a drop indeed

OH MY GOSH...darn scale...LOL... messed me over for .3 lb to FINALLY hit my 30lb.... gggrrr... lol... oh well... tomorrow will be the day woot woot my gosh isn't this diet great...I have tried for 4 years to drop 5-10lb...and now...I am about to reach a 30lb loss... man today is a good day and tomorrow... oh yeah...gets me within my 10yard finish line...
I can see the end of the tunnel...

That's awesome! Well not the "almost there" part but it's still awesome that you're ALMOST THERE! Keep up the good work!

Good Morning Ladies,

Lost 1 more lb this morning. I was hoping to see another two pound loss, but I figure I'll take what I get... it's only been three days. I'm just excited to get into the 160's as quickly as possible (and then to the 150's... and then to the 140's...).

Plus, my gym habit might have had something to do with it. I do turbulence training and I had to increase my weight load since my muscles were screaming out for me to stop babying them. However, when it came down to running a couple of long intervals, I became all weak. (So, naturally I stopped. I didn't want to pass out at the gym - embarrassing!) I know you're not supposed to do any exercise other than light forms (yoga, walking, etc), but I was told that if I already had a routine going on I could continue with my workouts.

Anyone else experiencing this?

Hi,
I have 3 friends that did the HCG diet...also gym goers, they didn't loose fast either while going to the gym on the diet...they say not to work out because of course you are on the VLCD but also because your body will retain everything and not release they way it should.
when 2 of the 3 stopped the gym they started dropping... the other stayed with it and lost less buy she really didn't want to stop the gym.

So it's really what you want to do on that.... Best Luck!!

I actually got the e-book about it. It just says you can eat breakfast (3 egg whites and an allowable fruit) and an extra fruit between lunch and dinner.

Browsing other threads I just came across a recipe for Cocoa Crack....sounds delicious!

Have any of you used this on Phase 2 yet?

I found this on the Muscle Health Fitness's website:
•Coconut oil raises your metabolism, helping you to burn calories and lose fat.

•Coconut oil improves your ability to burn other dietary fats.

•Coconut oil encourages ketosis, an important fat burning state.

•Coconut oil effectively stabilises blood sugar levels between meals.

Just curious if I can actually have chocolate and not feel guilty about it. Staring at that darn Snickers with Almonds in the candy machine every time I go to get water is killing me!

AWESOME!!!! way to go fjjcreations!!!!

having the finish line in sight is great!!!

to april...I have made (and eaten) cocoa crack in P2...I was scared to try it but my weight loss has stayed constant and it has made my world much happier!!!!

recipe please
