Down another 1.4 lbs. this morning...now this is starting to get fun again!!

Shoveled the driveway and sidewalks this morning before coming into work...jello arms!! I'm amazed at how weak my muscles get during P2.

Just realized I am 16 lbs. from goal...now I'm beginning to wonder if I need to change that. I remember thinking before I started HCG that if I could just get to 165, I would be estatic!! Well now I look at my body and think I need to keep going. Guess I'll figure out what I need to do when I get there.

Love me some Friday! Have a great one everyone!!!

Congratulations on your 1.4 lbs

I know what you mean, when you start losing with HCG seems like you can go further than possible before. Happy Friday!!!!

I will be afraid to do heavy weights during P2 so

I'll be right behind you with moving into P3...I haven't decided which day this next week to stop my drops but am hoping to see the 170's before I do... with you!

Down another 1.2 pounds today. I keep rubbing my eyes when I look on the scale. Seriously??? It's coming off THIS fast??? 9.6 REAL pounds in 12 days. 1.1 pounds to go until the new decade. Surely I can do that in 2 days...

Horribly stressful week for me. Then get on the scale this am and I gained 3 pounds in 1 day! WTH? I haven't "cheated" but stress always throws my hormones off.

I can't do a correction day today, meetings etc and I need my strength. So I plan to eat clean and correct tomorrow. Not strictly protocol, but there's nothing else to be done.

TGIF!

Good Luck everyone!

I've been told that your weight slows down when you're sick so I'm just going to stay OP and wait (weight) it out.

Good morning everyone. No loss today, I'm up 1.4 lbs. I am not concerned because I had such big losses the first two days and I know yesterday I didn't get in all of my water barely been to the bathroom, it's harder for me to drink my 2 gallons when I have to leave home...hate the bathrooms on campus!

I was also a little stressed had to go to court for a ticket. I know that once I kick my water back into gear today things will be just fine!

Great to see everyone's losses this morning

I won't have a choice unless I wanted to mix up a whole other batch. I am nearly out of my HCG...I think I didn't add enough bac water...usually I have an extra few days at the end. No biggie. I am READY for P3!!!!

down another .5 pounds. I was going to do my workout today, but I've decided to skip it - I have to go grocery shopping and do laundry, and I think that's probably more strenuous than doing the weights.

I also took my measurements, and I'm down 2 inches off my waist, 1.5 off my hips, and 2.5 off my thigh. Woo!

Soon,

When I got sick with a cold last winter doing P2 I did not lose either. And even gained. It was horrible. Sending healing wishes your way

Hi everyone. I need your help. I'm on R1P2VLCD28 - I chose to do a 40 day round. There is a work function coming up in a little over a week and I will not be able to stay on the VLC eating plan. Is it ok to stop P2 early and go into P3?

Thanks so much!

Yes, you can. It can either be an interruption or you can move onto P3. Either way you have to follow the no sugar/no starch rule and stay within 2 pounds either way of your LDW.

I read that if you're in a stall a bath consisting of epsom salt is great to remove toxins. My bath was 2 cups epsom salt, 1/2 cup baking powder, 2 tbl glycerin (softens your skin) and 2 tbl ginger. Soak for 20-30 minutes. It makes you sweat and feel all jello-y afterwards.

What I would do if you want to do a 40 day P2 is do an interruption. Stop your HCG (assuming its RX) at least 72 hours prior to the event. I will make sure I have an extra day prior to event as the first day of P3 isn't always the one you want to be doing at a function as you don't know how your body will react to the new food. Then do P3 for a couple days (no more than 14) and go right back into P2. You do not do any loading days if it is under a 2 week interruption, just make sure you are getting lots of fats in.

Thanks, that was what I was planning on doing - just starting P3 and P4 a little early.
