Hang in there! Our goals are nearly the same! I'm going back and forth between 135 and 130. I guess I'll see when I get there.
Great job, down 3 lbs!
If your headaches are really bad, you can take some aspirin.

I was up a 1lb today I dont know if its from yesterday or because my period is coming up. Its going to be hard getting my period middle of a round this time because I know it will make my weight go up.

Wendy- good luck on the diet its the best!

Keep eating Wendy! You DO NOT want to be hungry when you start VLCD. Try to focus on FATS.
It is hard and you feel like throwing up, but it's worth it!

Today is VLCD 10 down 1.2 today for a total of 8.4lbs

Had a moment when I noticed the tip of my dropper has broken off! The tip is not in my bottle! I`m guessing dh busted it this am when he took his drops.

Congrats to all the losers

Do the drops include the diet plan. I know everyone says to read Pounds and Inches, but there is soooo much there. Everyone's great results are getting me very interested.

Some drops include a diet plan and some of them aren't the original protocol. I think before starting any plan you need to read the whole thing so you can see what the plan offers, potential obstacles for you personally, etc. The results are fantastic but you really do need to stick to the protocol and understand the ins and outs of it.

My drops did not include the protocol and I know Pounds & Inches is a lot to read but it's really important to understand how it works and the correct diet so you can have the best long term results. I hope you'll decide to join us!

I feel bad that I haven't been able to really take part in this thread so far this week but work has been wiping me out. I will be off from Thursday until next Tuesday so I will be able to check in more often and offer words of support to the rest of you.

I'm down 0.4 this morning. I hope it just keeps going down.

I've noticed that the scale is only really nice to me when I've slept between 8-9 complete hours. I will not be getting 8-9 hours of sleep tonight so I expect a gain or to stay the same when I wake up. It's ok though, I know later in the week I will be able to fix it and get lots of sleep

Happy Releasing everyone!!

Why wouldn't keep going down? Just curious as I'm brand new.

I am so glad you guys have this thread! Anyone start load days effective 8/7/10?

I loaded 8/7/10 & 8/8/10. Post load weigh in on 8/9/10 was 211 and I weighed in this morning @ 204.4. I am assuming it's typical for men to lose faster? My BF has gone from 196 to 185 and we are only on day 3!

Anyways, you guys are doing so great! What an inspiration! I am SO excited to be joining the HCG protocol! I am doing the injections and so far, so good. No hunger, just a slight headache. I have to say, I thoroughly enjoyed my load days.

Can't wait to see how everyone's progress goes!

I am so glad your friend is helping. You do NOT want to do this protocol without the HCG. It is NOT healthy. I personally tell my husband every night how insane it is that I am eating 500 cals a day...now for 11 days and I have not dropped from fatigue or killed someone . Seriously, I am bouncing off the walls with energy and I am NOT hungry. Crazy talk. I love it!

Read it. I know its a pita, but honestly read it and you will understand how it works so much more. It makes going through it so much easier and how staying on protocol as best you can will help you succeed....IMO anyway.

Eat up! I know it is painful. If you can't eat much...make sure what you eat is fatty.

At some point, I know the scale is going to stop moving so my body can catch up. It's not a bad thing but I like seeing the numbers go down and I am not looking forward to seeing it stop. I know some people bounce around - up and down for a little bit before things start moving again and people stall for days and then end up doing an apple day or steak day to break the stall - that's all I meant. Eventually, I know it will start moving again if I stick to the plan (which I plan to do!)

Good luck to you wendy!

Tempted - Good job to you! You're doing awesome

Everyone is doing awesome. I was down 0.4 again today and I'm fine with that. I'm off until next week so I'm going to focus on eating 500 calories and drinking at least 128oz of water if not more. I haven't been doing either of those for the last few days and I know that's not helping.

to the newbies.. jump on board and fill us in on how things are going for you too!!

I'll be back tomorrow

Diana, I see you havent been following the 500 cals and getting your water in. Is there something we can do to help? what are your challenges? maybe someone here has some suggestions for you. Sending you much support over the net!

I am the exact same way!!

Weighed in this morning at 202.6 (down from 204.4) which is good but I keep trying to compare myself to my BF who was down 3 lbs this morning... I have to stop doing that
Here's to another great day of HCG!
