I'm still going to try to monitor how much I read so I don't get discouraged but I'm happy to report I've lost 5 lbs WITH NO GAIN since Sunday!
After a consultation with Dr. Google that lasted hours and hours I determined I needed to deviate from Dr. S's protocol. I've added 50-100 grams of extra protein. Since I trained bootcamp style for so many years it is likely I have tons more muscle than Dr. S's original patients or others that do hCG. Because of my muscle mass I *need* more
I hesitate to mention my history with being underweight because when I do people online draw the conclusion that I do not need to lose weight.
So to put it all on the table:
1. I am overweight. Before starting IVF I was on a medically supervised diet. My dr. would not have accepted me as a patient if I did not need to lose weight. It is true: he did not agree with how much I wanted to lose and he said once I hit his goal for me I would be happy and he would release
Yep.
