Our group has been starting new threads every month to prevent people from having to sort through thousands of old posts. Each new thread is usually called “Lovely Losers” + something witty or gritty (depending on the mood of the day!).
Although we call ourselves "Lovely Losers", we welcome EVERYBODY to this thread - men and women – in all different phases of HCG. Most importantly, we are here to support each other! Whether you are starting, finishing or somewhere in between - YOU ARE WELCOME!!

Good Morning Ladies,
I'm still lurking and reading around here. Haven't had as much to say. I'm still in my same up and down boat here. Seems like I've been averaging one Steak Day a week now. I'm doing one today. Usually, the Steak Day's aren't too hard for me to get through. Usually, it's the next day that I have to try hardier at, too much free rein! Hope everybody is "Slimming in Septemeber"!

Good luck with your SD, Sarah! I may do one this week or next. I'm going to try just eating better like I have been for the last week or so and see where I'm at on Saturday. I'm sure my weight is up but I still feel good. I need to get going with my hip hop abs! The last 2 weeks I've done at least 3 days so I'll do it today through Saturday probably this week.
Happy September all! I'm back after almost 2 full years of maintaining, I've slipped this summer and need to get back in shape for my best friends wedding - November 2nd! I'm on my second loading day today and will start VLC tomorrow. Cheers and looking forward to lively interactions and support!

Entering Week 1 of P4 = wish us luck integrating carbs! Quinoa and popcorn, here we come! YAHOO!!
P2 Total Losses:
-18 lb | -27lb
---------------------------
Goal: -15|-30
Thanks Sarah for starting this thread. I have been lurking.
I am in P4 and staying about 4 pounds above my LDW. Seemed like the SD I lost 2 pounds but they came back quickly. As long as I don't go any higher. My inches must be coming off some as I tried on size 10 pants and they fit. My daughter told me I should get medium tops instead of large...she was right. I want to do another round before the end of the year. I was thinking of starting Sept. 14, but I have read you need 8 weeks after the 2nd round. So i will wait until mid Oct and do a 30-40 day round. I am certain I'll need another round but will wait the six months to do it. I do think I need to lose 5- 10 pound below my goal since I tend to "bounce".
The most important thing today is that I feel good.
Hey Everyone
I have not been on while. I am now in p3 and I woke up this am 2.2 gain and I do not know why so I did a SD 10oz I hope helps
Only think I did diff was ate pork rins but had nothing in them salt pork all??? I did go to tanning bed could that been it>
I am so upset b/c i do not know what did it??? Any help PLEASE>>>
Hope everyone else is well and loosing.
Holly the jump is more than likely from the sodium in the pork rinds. It will flush right back out.
Good morning all, just have to report Inam down 2.4 this morning! FINALLY under my plateau! Btw, i have been using Tapatalk app for ipad and iphone....i made ths mistake of upgrading to the pro version which is very hard to use, anyone else out there have the same experience? I am so pumped on the weight loss, you just dont know how frustrated I have been this round. Whew!!!!!
Good Morning.
SD went pretty well.. Had a 2.6lb loss... I'm still 2.6lbs over LDW.... And that's with losing another 2.4lbs just doing a P3 day on Tuesday... I really over did it last weekend... But it felt so good doing it, lol. Have to try to and follow up with a clean day today, always the hard part for me, not the actually SD.
Holly: The Pork Rinds with the LOADS of Salt would most likley be the cause. Those things are ULTRA LOADED with Salt. They got me before a couple times. I know they are a nice "allowed" snack in P3, but you have to expect to see a jump with the Salt, unless you really make the effort to pump and flush with water. In fact I would say just pushing the water today will be the best bet to getting the extra off. Don't freak out from it. It happens.

Good morning girls, thanks for starting the new thread. Slimming in September...I like it!
Holly - I agree, it was the salt. Drink lots and you will be fine. Enjoy P3
Mpd - great loss, way to go. You are on the right track.
Sarah - great loss for you too! We are sure "slimming"
AFM - down 1.2 this am, getting close to my last pellet weight.
Thank you all no loss this am and did a steak day nothing else... I will do lots lots water today hope this works
That stinks, holly! I can't imagine suffering through a SD and not having a loss
TOM is here for me. GREAT. lol May go to a football game Sunday, so that'll be interesting and uncomfortable. I've been eating like a ravenous warthog so I'm sure I've gained even more weight; however, I like how I look in my clothes still so I'm going to try not to worry too much about it. Gonna do some hip hop abs after work today and try to do the same at least tomorrow. Next week will hopefully be a little more routine around here.
Hope you have a good time @ FBall game. I know when TOM is here I am always so hungry but he did not even come this month but my cycles have always been crazy. I am going to dink a ton water and hope for loss tomorrow. If not I may do another SD what do you think? Should I not eat Pork Rinds any more since cause sucha hugh gain
