Lovely Losers 2022 - ALL ABOUT IT in April!!

**sdwis** · April 1st, 2022, 04:54 AM

Hello to all of the Lovely Losers out there from sdwis aka Coco. This is your thread for APRIL 2022.

This joyful and jubilant group of HCG’ers have been starting new threads every month for years to prevent people from having to sort through literally thousands of old posts, and making it easier for new people to join in.

Please note as you read through the posts:

We are all in different phases of HCG.
We all use different methods of HCG.
What is right for YOU, is right for YOU and we respect that. We don’t judge.
We discuss ALL aspects of our individual journeys to a healthier lifestyle.
And MOST importantly, while we can be a little naughty and nutty (always with humor!! ) we are NICE to each other!!

So, whether you are just starting, finishing or are somewhere in between . . .STEP RIGHT IN!

Congrats on your birthday Rose, and your great results in this round -

Yay, Rose, and happy birthday!

I'm hunkered down for continuing P2 through all of April. Planning to finish up and start P3 the second week of May. According to T.S. Eliot "April is the cruelest month" but I'm grateful for another round of HCG. Losses have slowed after my first week of VLC days, but it's all good. Still tweaking dosage a bit, but overall feeling good. Cheers to a new month and making the most of it!

Thank you. Took me a week or so to tweak dose though it was prob more my brain that needed it. Ended up using 26 with 2:1 ratio of 5000 units. Worked well. Just had to get used to it You will do fine. Every round is diff but I usually get same results. I may go up once in awhile for no reason but it always drops below where it went up

I always appreciate your positivity, Rose! And even if the tweaked dosage doesn't result in bigger losses this round, it's definitely a better experience to not be as hungry. I rarely had a POP day in the past because of the gnawing hunger I'd quell with an extra apple or nibbles on celery or cucumbers, and it always bothered me. So far I'm doing MUCH better in that regard and not having to white knuckle it as much.

The diminished hunger while on HCG is such an amazing freedom for me. Without HCG I really struggle with satiating my hunger without gaining weight. Lower carb paleo with intermittent fasting has worked the best for me. But so far it's not foolproof. I'd really love to figure all of this out for the long term. As I often say, it's all an experiment. . . .

I’m Debbie and I started loading today. Honestly I don’t know how many rounds I’ve done but it’s been 5 years since my last one. I had great success with my first few rounds which were a decade ago. And kept the bulk of it off until COVID. Now I’m well into the 200’s again and going to give HCG another go. I have loved the support from this site in the past. It has been a long time and things look a bit different and new faces. But I look forward to sharing experiences. April is going to be a great month!

Happy Birthday to you Rose... We truly value and appreciate you around here for sure!!

It's been a while, but I may be starting another round too myself later this month, perhaps loading Easter Weekend. I've been working on a Masters Degree during the Covid lockdown, and also lately indulging in too much Down Home Cooking (just recently while spending a whole week in Savannah GA last month).If you've ever been there, or remember Paula Deen's cooking style, you will know what I mean. Those people seem to eat that way every day, and I can understand why. IT"S JUST DARN GOOD, but I could also count on my hands, the number of adults I saw who were not overweight or downright obese.

I'm still able to wear most of my cooler weather clothing such as jeans, blouses, t-shirts jackets comfortably, I want to drop about 15 lb. for my sexy summer dresses and tops to look their best on me, which is without the hint of a single roll or bulge anywhere. Some may call it a vanity round, but now that we've finally shed the masks after two years, I want to look my absolute best from head to toe ,and have myself a "hot mama" summer.

There's absolutely nothing wrong with doing a vanity round, Coco - go for it!

**roselanoue** · April 2nd, 2022, 05:06 AM

Agree with vanity rounds. That is why i will do another short round in June to get closer to my goal weight I am 148.4 today so under LIW and now ready for P3 Last cpl days without hcg on VLCD have been fine but i am ready for some oils and other things like cheese P3 is pleasant for me to do. Sometimes I drop a cpl lbs but sometimes not. Either way if i can stay under LIW going to another short round in June i will be happy. Prefer to stay in the high 130s as i did in 2016-2018 but low 130s is no longer meant to be. I like to eat and enjoy cooking and baking for holidays so under 140 will keep me happy. Next year i will hit that 80 birthday and want to be in shape still I have 5 outdoor art shows between April and end of May then good to 4th weekend for beach show. Another round in June is good

Hi everyone!! I'm new here. My name is Theresa. I've been following this site on and off for years but haven't really posted anything so here goes. Back in 2012 I lost 65 lbs in 5 1/2 months doing HCG. It was awesome. I kept it off for about 3 yrs until my mom passed away and I was in a deep depression and downward spirals. I gained those 65 lbs back and 45 lbs more. This is my second round and I day 29. I have only lost 12lbs so far which is really slow for me. Last round I did great. I started at 236.3 and am now at 190.4. First round I lost almost 35 lbs including the 5 I lost in P3. Now I'm just at 12 lb loss. I haven't done anything different so I'm not sure why losses are so slow. I came here to get some advice and words of wisdom from all you wonderful people!!

**roselanoue** · April 2nd, 2022, 08:43 AM

So sorry for the loss of your mom. Do not be discouraged by slow losses. They are still losses plus you halted the gains. Only thing I know is that I am a slow loser. Be sure you drink at least 80-100 oz water each day. It makes a dif. Also are u using rx inj or hcg? Maybe diff formula. Are u hungry? Other than normal mealtime hunger. I want to encourage you. It took a few years to put the weight back on. Your activity level and age have changed. Check your thyroid level too.
