Do I wait until after my cycle to start loading?

I read in P&I that you should wait after your period to start the protocol. I am going to pick up my drops this weekend and will have about 12 days before my cycle starts. Should I just start loading on the weekend of wait?

It is over a week away until your cycle begins! I would start loading! P & I says" it is advisable to have at least 10 days in hand before the onset of your next cycle" so your good to go!!

Thanks for the response. I am itching to start it because right now I am feeling so big. I have gained 10 pounds since ordering the HCG and now I am at an all time high of 217. Eeek. So I will start loading on Saturday.

I do usually stop mine during my period or at least on the first few heavy days, but I would go ahead and start

principessa54...This is my 2nd day of loading, the good thing is we dont have to see this weight again, a few days after loading its all downhill from there

I got my TOM last night on my 7th day of injections. I am skipping today because I think my dose is too high, but I will be back on injections tomorrow at a lower dose. Many people do not stop during their TOM. I would think preloading when you are PMSing would be great!

Peggy, you are right loading while PMSing is perfect. I can gorge and not feel guilty.

I am doing HHCG and am still doing the drop during TOM and still losing. My TOM is really wierd because I have and IUD. I go long periods of time w/out one and when I finaly get one it is just spotting. I started spotting a couple days after starting HHCG and I still am. I don't know if it is the HHCG or not. I am thinking I will be spotting the entire time I do the VLCD. I usually lose better when I am on my period so it doesn't bother me.

Thanks Kandi. I have been following your success on other threads. I picked up my hcg this morning and just took my second dose. Now I am loading. Not very well so far. I haven't had anything to eat except for a danish and its 2 p.m. I have been at the ball field in playoffs. Since I got home I am warming up a breakfast sandwich and plan on making mac and cheese.

You may want to load for 3 days then. Don't want to wake up hungry on your first VLCD!! Girl, you need to eat and eat a lot!!!!

Thanks Dawn. I may have to load for 3 days at the rate I am going. I just ate that mac and cheese and it was only half a box when I could easily eat a full box. I am so full. I am going out tonight to watch a football game so I am going to try and eat again at the pub. Maybe order something really fattening. I definitely do not want to wake up starving on my first vld
