PS Barbara--wonderful picture!!! I will have to post a pic from our trip. Maybe tonight I can convince DH. Our camera broke on our trip and we resorted to cell phone pics towards the end!!! I have no idea where they ended up.

PSS Glad to see you back on board too Sazzie!!!
Dawn,
Glad you made it back safely. You are doing a great job of maintaining - your body must really like where it's at!!

Have a good Tuesday and happy losing!
I'm on load day 2 and I am already sick of food!! I don't know if I could give up my coffee (I don't mind drinking it black, but would hate to go without). Wishing you good losses tomorrow!!!

I hope you get your pipes thawed out this morning. We used to have that problem when we lived in a mobile home. My DH would go out with the blow dryer to heat up the pipe that was frozen. It was right outside the bathroom, so he could hear the water start running when it was thawed out!

Woo Hoo on the 2.4lb release Angela! You are doing wonderfully this round! KUTGW!

Everyone have a great day and stay INTENTIONAL.
Bob, maybe your body is trying to catch up a bit, eh?! I had days like that during my round.....a little annoying, but overall, a good thing.

I'm getting a little worried...........???
You can try magnesium or Calm which is a magnesium tea. Very gentle and natural.

Good morning!!

Today is load day 2 and am up 7 lbs from LDW (I was up 4 when I started loading). I was hoping to be closer to LDW when I started, but didn't want to delay another day once my drops came in and decided to load rather than do a correction day then load. I am already sick of food!! Can't wait to finish up loading today and on to VLC eating and the scale moving down again.

Hope everyone has a great Tuesday!!!

Dawn, you're maintaining beautifully, but that's what happens when you follow Protocol as written.
It's good to be back.

A good feeling when VLCD starts that detoxing.
I so understand getting all that water down; I've been unable to since it is so cold here in Florida. Relatively speaking, it's only 36o here right now, so I'm drinking Oolong hot tea all day long.

That was a good decision. I'd much rather get right into VLCD than do correction day after correction day. I've been averaging about 2 correction days a month on maintenance, and one of those days was yesterday.

Down 1.2 today, a much more reasonable loss. 1.6 pounds away from virgin territory that I haven't seen in 7-8 years! I made a bunch of mini goals and noted them on my WLT. They all appear doable, so I'm confident this will be a great round!

I see all of us melting and maintaining!!
Woo Hoo! I'm sure virgin territory is scared of you!

You'll feel better in no time. Gaining only 1.6 pounds during loading is good. It may even be gone tomorrow!

I hope my scale is not screwing with me....Anyways I am excited to not have to pay for all the debauchery of eating over the holidays. A couple more days of eating normal and I should be back within range and hopefully lower before my next round. Andrea and Kimberly are both maintaining nicely in P3. Seems like my body wanted to get back to the set point that was created during P3. To me that is very exciting...A body that wants to go down on the scale when given the chance instead of going up. Everyone have a great day of losing and maintaining and be a blessing to someone today.
WOW!!! That's a fantastic correction. Itsn't wonderful when the body rushes to lose weight!

Thanks for your lovely compliment on the x-mas picture I posted. Glad it came out o.k. since I only had one picture taken when I was away.
I must have missed something Barbara...are you on P2 again??!! I thought you just got done on P2!! Glad I am not the only one who has a suitcase unpacked!!

Well, all I can say Sharon is "It is about freaking time!!!" Remember all those correction days I had before the holidays?? Thank God they are over and done with!!! I feel settled on 124 and that is perfectly fine with me! And yes, it really does feel good to not have to fret over what to eat anymore. And with all those drinks I am around at Starbucks--well let us just say that I am busy "sampling" all of them!!!

Thanks Diana! Not liking these 30 degrees temps we have been having. It is in the teens overnight--too cold for me! My body seems to like it right at 124--fine with me!!!

Thanks Alisa! I have not really talked to them since I have returned. Too busy!! But no phone call means A-OK, I suppose. See, no invitation to a memorial or luncheon or anything. Just like I suspected. Ah, well. That is OK. I have been so busy to even notice. But yes, I do need to call and check in with them. Thanks for asking.

Dawn, like Sharon I didn't do a stellar job of P3 so I restarted hCG 6 days before Christmas, took a break while travelling and I'm now back on the "juice" and the indulgence weight is starting to come off. I'm praying I can do a better job on P3 this time around. As they said if you don't succeed at first, try, try again.

I use Natural Calm that is a Magnisium(sp) supplement and it really helps with BM's during P2.

I'm on loading day 2 today. I gained 4.2 pounds after yesterday! I guess that means I did a good job of loading. hehe I also felt like my tummy was just going to explode last night and yes, I'm sick of food too. Can't believe I have to do it all over again today. It's sort of fun to eat all of that stuff but I didn't like the way it made me feel.

I ate half a pan of sausage stuffed yeast rolls, a bag of dried pineapple, a pint of ice cream, a big sub with turkey, melted cheese, and avocado. With that was HUGE avocado with Russian dressing. Supper was dinner at Olive Garden. Creamy chicken gnocchi soup, stuffed chicken marsala with parmesan mashed potatoes and tiramisu. Then we had Whataburger for a late night snack and I had a bacon cheeseburger and a cherry fried pie. Don't ask me how I was able to eat all that because I have NO idea.

I have the second half of the rolls reheating in the oven now and I'm going to have a couple of avocados with it for brunch. I have to leave the house for a while and when I come back, I'm going to make a tater tot casserole with hamburger meat, cream of chicken soup and velveeta cheese. I love goopy trashy food like that! We're going out to eat at Mimi's Cafe tonight with a friend, too. Yeah, I think I'm loading pretty well. hehe It's making me look very forward to my VLCD tomorrow!

Ok, apparently I'm extra slow today. Sorry. :blush: I'm going to bed.
Exactly. Assuming, of course, you have it on.

It doesn't know if you're exercising, though. It just knows if you were more active and charts it as so. Without specifying what exactly you were doing, it just charts your activities as: sedentary, lightly active, fairly active and very active for whatever 24 hour period where you're wearing the fitbit.

So let's say you went to the gym yesterday from 5 pm - 6 pm.. when you sync the fitbit, it'll show (hopefully!) that you were "very active"... you can go in and enter exactly what you were doing (running, kickboxing, elliptical, etc). Same with any time during the day, really. If I really wanted to know how many calories I use driving in to work in the morning, I would enter that as my activity during whatever time I was driving to work.

I'm extra verbally challenged today.

I hope my scale is not screwing with me....Anyways I am excited to not have to pay for all the debauchery of eating over the holidays. A couple more days of eating normal and I should be back within range and hopefully lower before my next round. Andrea and Kimberly are both maintaining nicely in P3. Seems like my body wanted to get back to the set point that was created during P3. To me that is very exciting...A body that wants to go down on the scale when given the chance instead of going up. Everyone have a great day of losing and maintaining and be a blessing to someone today.
That's fantastic. Like, scientifically amazing. Good job!

hi everyone,
Down .6 lbs today. I was really hungry last night to the point it made me sick to my stomach. I was at work, so did not get my normal cleaning duties done. I am still hungry this morning but will wait till way late to start eating so I am not so hungry at night. Do you think I should switch hcg product? I have not added melba toast yet because the store I was at did not have it but will get some today.

Are you drinking enough water? You can have water and tea all day to help "fill" you up. Definitely add the melba!! Go a couple more days with those additions and see if your hunger starts to abate. Good luck and congrats on the loss!!

Oh, I thought you were done when you took your "break". I got it now. I wish you well. Sounds like you are off to a great start!! And yes, I understand well the saying, "try, try again"!!! Remember all those correction days I needed this round :blush: Hopefully I am done with them!!!

Maybe you should also try splitting up your meals. Are you having your fruits as snacks?? I would "save" my fruits and the Melbas for in between my main meals of the protein and veggies. My first meal was about 11AM and that was usually just an apple with the breadstick or melba. Then lunch was about 1 or 2. Then my snack of the other fruit and melba was about 4 or so and then dinner at about 6-7PM. It helps to spread out the food as much as possible. I also agree with Dizzy--drinking a lot of hot tea helped my tummy feel full. I would also chug the water too.

Very good results IC. Congrats on your 2.2 lb release this morning. Slowly but surely you will make it to the finish line (your goal weight).

I can see that. My boyfriend is 6'2" and I've seen him 15 pounds lighter after one day of being too busy to eat much, and putting 15 lbs back on the next day he ate normally.

NOT to say this is your issue, but I had an attempted round back before my first round that I did sublingually (rx sublingual), and I was so hungry all the time that I didn't last. I did MAYBE a week or two. My round 1, and my current round 2 are both injection, and I'm rarely hungry, and it's honestly not hard for me to turn down food. It's weird.
-----------

That said, I started my VLCDs yesterday (back from an interruption), and I was a little hungry towards the evening (probably because I JUST started the HCG yesterday, so there wasnt much in my system) and I got home lat night and ate a brownie. But it's all good. It hit the spot, and I'm down 3.2 pounds today. 18 more VLCDs to go.
