Awwh, thanks Lindsay. I know it will be fine. The first week is so exciting! So, the fluctuations have been a little crazy this week. But I'm still averaging at 1 lb a day, and that's what it says is normal. :-)

Please make her feel welcome and maybe she'll talk more! LOL

Haha. I find comfort in being a stalker. It helps me burn more calories.

That's so exciting Dawn! Congrats!

I'm down another pound today and finally feel like I have my energy back a bit.

May drink all green tea instead of water today in order to get things moving in the bathroom dept. I'm starting to feel a bit uncomfortable

Good Job!!!!

I have been mostly lurking, but I am so excited to report that I am down 17lbs!! This is vlcd 20 for me.

I had a major cheat over superbowl weekend and I gained 3 lbs I got right back on track and weight started coming right back off.

I have a long way to go, but I am just amazed that this is working for me It normally takes me forever to lose a pound!!!

I hope everyone has a great weekend!!

You can use whatever sweetener you wish on P2. I also see Dr S state something along those lines of "what you have available where you are located". I do not use stevia exclusively. I have used my normal artificial sweeteners and have done well using them.
I'm so happy because I normally use splenda and I started adding 1 pk to my coffee. What a difference! And I lost 1 pound today so I guess it didn't stall me.

Good morning everyone and happy Saturday! 26 days into VLC and I am down 2.2 pounds overnight! This HCG stuff is incredible indeed! I'm just a couple of days til LDW and if I just stay here, I'd be thrilled! (I'm secretly hoping to see 175 though! heehee) I have to say that I am looking forward to P3 more for being able to use Vitamin E oil on my hands and feet again. Oy, they are in bad shape!

Dawn - congrats on staying in the teens! It's probably 10 times tougher since you're so tiny anyway! WTG! What a great way to start the weekend!

Welcome out of lurkville Lindsay and Elise!

To all, have a great weekend!

Hello everyone. I've been reading to try and catch up. Every time I think I'm getting back on hcg something happens and I don't do it. You all are very motivating! I loaded for 2 days and will start my vlcd tomorrow'. So scared cause I have been trying to start again since November! I have a very long way to go and have gained a lot back since I did this before. I have a broken foot since November that's been giving me problems, and there has just been the wrong foods around. I see so much success and just don't know why I can start again. Tomorrow I will try. I weighed today and I am so disgusted with myself. It was almost 1 year ago when I first did hcg and lost about 55 pounds, and kept it off until about Oct-Nov, and I really don't know what happened, but started gaining weight back like crazy...along with wanting to eat everything in sight! I need that mindset again.

So, here I am....nice to meet you all and let the journey begin!

Today is load day #1. I began at 151, which is 5.5 lbs. up from my last round. P3 was going well, until my doc put me on prednisone. Stayed on that a few days and hated it. That's pretty much when I gained. I am looking forward to starting again. Gonna try to keep it clean and get into the 130s this round. I'll have to catch up with everyone.

I'm down .06 today. I guess the slowdown has begun. I got on my treadmill yesterday for 30 minutes so I wonder if that has anything to do with the slowdown. Oh well, this is still a good number so I can't complain. Have a great Sunday!

Workouts always make me retain water and mask losses, not that you should stop if you are in the habit.

That makes sense. I should probably drink more water on those days. Thanks!

I am down another 0.2 today so I can officially claim the 177 number that I saw yesterday on the scale. The only thing that is really worrying me is that 175 is a notorious sticking point for me and it looks like I will land close to there after R1. Has anyone had any experience landing on a set point in round one and then doing a subsequent round? How did it go? Inquiring minds...
