Good luck Kitri on those tests. I am sure you are prepared so I know you will do a great job. What are you studing?
I lost 1 # since last nights breakdown...I'm giving it 2 days to see if I dodged the gain bullet. Tomorrow I have midterms...wish me luck (ugh). Will be on sometime after that to check in. Good luck and have a great night/day!

Dance as though no one is watching, Love beyond words, Sing as though no one can hear you.
Part of what you will learn through this process is how much of an emotional eater you tend to be... You have to find other ways to comfort/occupy yourself instead of going to food. Most of us here struggle with that, but then experience freedom because we can discern real hunger versus 'fake" hunger. Go into this with an idea for a lifestyle change so that you don't go back to your old ways during or after you finish your round.
Hi ladies, I'd like to join your group if I could. I've been on vacation for a week and decided to load the last two days of the vacation. Not the best idea, since today was spend in the airport all day as we got bumped and just not good high fat foods. But tomorrow, I will start VLCD 1. This is my 3 rd round. Thanks!
Round 1: started November 11, 2011 hHCG
Start Weight: 196lbs
Total loss Round 1: 21.3 lbs.
LDW: 175.6
Round 2: 1/29/12 beginning weight 173.6
After loading: 177.2

Round 3: 6/12/12: post loading: 173.2
'Morning ladies. Boy that first vlcd is a toughie, isn't it? I experience very little hunger pretty much right away on hcg, but the urge to eat junk is so strong the first few days!
I can justify myself right into a bag of chips very easily, so i need to stay very strict to suceed in P2. No cheats for me or I might as well head to the closest buffet! I am going a bit rogue this round though...I'm eating turkey and having some Diet Coke *swoon*. I developed SUCH a bad aversion to grilled chicken and asparagus last round! Blech!
Anyone else doing things a little different round 2 or beyond and having success?

GRRRRRRRR....... I am still +.6 oz...... I know that I am about to O , and my hormones get the best of me- but gosh dang all I want is to see that dang ticker move- well it certainly isn't going to move if I eat crappy- so here is to another day of 500 calories!
BTW the lady I buy my drops from said they changed the formal, and not it just tastes like water, has anyone else had this?
Good Morning!
Down 1.8lbs this morning. That finally puts me in new territory for my hCG weightloss journey. Today is VLCD8, so I managed to get rid of my loading weight, plus the +5lbs I stabilized at during maintenance. I am so relieved. I so want to get under 200 this round. That's 13lbs to lose in the next 4-5 weeks (depending on how long I go). I think that's doable.
Kitri2779, how did your exams go? Crossing my fingers they went well for you!
justdoit7504, bummer about the airport thing. Good luck starting round 3. Welcome to the group.
OmMama, I think I might try turkey this round and maybe eggs. I can't even look at chicken without feeling little queasy. I had a diet Pepsi the other day and I was up the next morning, so I'm not going to try more diet soda, at least not for a couple of weeks.
erinmom, have you looked that the list of ingredients to see if they still contain hCG? Fwiw, mine have always tasted like water. Keep up the good work and the scale will move soon!
Oh, I should tell you all about the support my 13 yo is giving me...the militant, dictator like support (LOL!). I was making an iced coffee and he was making an iced mocha yesterday.
Me: Can I have a sip?
Charlie: No.
Me: Just a tiny one, I won't take that much.
Charlie: No...it's not on your plan.
Me: All I want is to get the flavor in my mouth, I won't even take enough to swallow.
Smartass Kid: Do you really think that's wise? (walks away)
I am so thankful for him.
Rhianonnon You just saved my p2 THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!! I just looked at the old bottle I had and compared it to the new bottle, turns out that the old one said x6 x12 blah blah blah... the new one says x3 x6 yada yada- so it is not as strong, which makes since why I have been hungry!!!! SO now I will just take x2 the dose and should be good!!! GRRRRRRRRRR what a waste of a week!!!!! I knew something wasn't right......
Are tomatoes a fruit or vegetable on this plan? My doc says fruit but I though P&I said Vegi and I am not at he just yet.
Yeah botanically it's def a fruit...thanks...Imma make me an egg salad and I guess I will have some grapefruit with it since I can't do it like a lettuce wrap.

Hi all, well I survived the airport. We voluntarily bumped so we really did spend most of the day in airports or on planes. However, we now have $1200.00 worth of Delta vouchers! Yippee! So needing some more fat, when I got home, I hard boiled some eggs and made some egg salad with mayo and then ate the other half of the snickers I had bought in the airport. I'm feeling pretty good today as far as the hunger goes. However, I'm super tired and have a headache. I know it will pass and just really need to stick with it! Have to refresh myself on the protocol and then go to the store and stock up on the good stuff. Does anyone eat green beans in P2? I've heard a lot of people do with success, but I didn't try it the first two rounds, but would really be a nice addition, if it wouldn't cause negative affects.
Rhiannon – Congrats on your great loss and new territory, that is exciting! Love your son’s support. I have a 16 year old daughter that is the same way with me!
OmMama - I’m also planning to stay very strict to protocol and taking it one day at a time to see how long of round I do. Just coming back from vacation eating, I’m looking forward to all the healthy stuff right now, but know that will wear off and I will have a hard time gagging down chicken! I love salads and if I could just find a good salad dressing that fit protocol, I think I would be set. I have tried many, but no success! Good luck on the turkey and diet coke. I have a friend who drank diet coke throughout and did great and satisfied her sweet tooth. Unfortunately for me, it makes me crave salty and sweet so I’m going to stick with tea.
Erinmom – Stick with it! I have heard several people on another thread talking about their drops tasting like water and not alcohol. Not sure what that is about. I had to order from a different company this time as I used hcg1234 the first two times, before they changed to no hcg in their drops. This time I’m using youlosewithhcg. Definitely tastes like alcohol and has HCG 6x, 12x, 30x, 60x so hope it will work well! It’s so frustrating to be doing the 500 calories and sticking to protocol and not see results. Hope increasing the dose works for you with your new drops! Good luck!!
Hope everyone has a great week!!
