Thread: September 2022 Loaders - Superstars

P2d27, holding at 139.0, down 8.0. I took a day trip yesterday, hoping that won't hurt my progress. The last days of my round are usually pretty good for losses.

Does this mean you found your drops?

Leez, I never did find them and had to order more! Hopefully, they'll turn up eventually, lol!

My sleep/wake schedule is a bit wonky, so I probably won't be taking the pellets at the same time each day. Will that be a problem, or will it be okay as long as the spacing between doses is the same?

Edited to add: the pellets aren't dissolving! Is that normal? (Intermountain brand)

Okay, thanks, Leez!

Edited to add: I just found on the website that I'm to chew and swallow the remainder of the pellets. This isn't my first round by a long shot, but it's the first round with pellets, and it's been forever since I've done HCG, so I feel like a newbie again, lol!

This is my first time using pellets, so I have no clue! I'm a little skeptical about this company now. The bottle says if you experience hunger to switch your dose from 3 pellets 3xday to 2 pellets 5 times a day, but the website says to go from 3 3xday to 2 6xday. idk

Are the pellets Intermountain? If so, they are good. When I took them I had to adjust down, so like maybe 2 pellets instead of 3

Leez, re-reading this post makes me wonder - with my keto diet, I have reversed t2d, and mostly eliminated inflammation and water weight. I keep my protein intake up during VLCD so I think my very slow weight loss with hcg is almost all fat.

I'm on my last couple of days of hhcg, will start P3 on Thursday. I have only lost 8 lbs, but I see good fat reduction and reshaping. I generally ramp up my calories during the three weeks of P3 and get good skin tightening.

I hope I can stabilize like Rose!
