Please note: these instructions are primarily centered around mixing liquid hCG. But...if you have dry (powdered) hCG, you can still use these directions. The adjustment you would have to make only applies if you are using dry hCG; where the amount of liquid is added. So, if you do NOT have 'liquid hCG' and still want to use these directions, then do this: ADD 1 mL more of bacteriostatic water to your vial -- but only add that extra 1 mL

For example's sake, I'm going to use the '2,000 IU' hCG strength.
Please note: whether you are using liquid or powdered (dry) -- hCG....that does not matter. With these mathematical formulas, we are only attempting to figure out how many IUs you will be dosing with....or, what amount of IUs you have already been dosing with.
There are actually only 3 different mathematical formulas you can use to figure out
One other supplement that folks may be interested in taking to prevent stress-related gains and to possibly assist in stabilization: SAMe (also sometimes called SAM-e). It occurs naturally in the body, but is depleted in times of stress. It helps with things like insomnia (which I've suffered from), depression, "brain fog," all that and more. It helps your body function well, even when under stress.

PROTEIN LIMIT
First, what's your LIW/LDW? Whatever it is, your weight equivalent in grams of COOKED protein, plus 20% of it more, is your protein limit/ceiling. If you go above 120% of your LIW/LDW in grams of cooked protein you will likely gain. Don't EVER go above this, even if you increase calories or carbs. And again, I'll emphasize: you're tracking COOKED protein grams. Weigh your food AFTER cooking, and you'll know how many calories you're ACTUALLY consuming; the "raw" foods
ORGANIC VS. NON-ORGANIC: POINTS TO CONSIDER WITH THE POST-CORRECTION DAY STRATEGY
In my experience, there are certain veggies that have always helped with weight loss, both in P2 and P3. And, perhaps not so coincidentally, they're "low-glycemic" vegetables. I also only eat ORGANIC vegetables whenever I can; some are more important to have as organic than others. The guiding principle: if you CAN'T SKIN IT, you need to buy it as an organic veggie. IF YOU CAN skin it, you probably
