Day 1, loading today
 

Hi All!

My husband and I are starting a round together today. I used RX injections the first round a couple years back and had good success. My husband is squeamish about injections so we decided to use the Intermountain pellets this time.

We are starting out with 3 pellets, 3X day as instructed on the bottle. I know we are not supposed to allow the pellets around any electronics. Are there any other things we need to know about HHCG pellets? Like how long to wait until eating/drinking after taking pellets? If there is a thread already running on this topic I would really appreciate if someone could point me to it.

Thanks so much!

I wait 15 mins before and after taking the pellets and I keep them in the bathroom cabinet as it is a cool, dark place.

Ok Thanks Cindy!

I am already sick of eating and I really haven't eaten much more than my normal day (normal non dieting). 3 eggs this morning with buttered toast, then couldn't think of eating until about 6 hrs later had 2 tacos/choc shake. I'm SO not wanting to eat anymore. But I will cause I know those first couple days of vlcd will be torture if not loaded properly. I

s it possible the pellets are already working and my appetite is down? day 1?

Most people have trouble eating alot on the loading days because the hcg is working but always try to have lots of healthy fats, protein and keep the junk food to a min. this way you won't be eating empty calories.

I felt like I was going to explode while I was loading! :laugh:

I can't answer the pellet question because I haven't tried them but just wated to say Welcome!!!

I looked pregnant, I was so swollen during loading and felt like a tick :hyst: :hyst: I suggest to anyone loading---please eat a lot. It will help for your first 2 days on VLCDs. You don't want to be hungry. I was hungry every single day during my round #2, and it is something I don't ever want, ever again :sad: You have to eat, eat and eat some more. Keep a can of nuts with you at all times. I love the chocolate covered ones and can eat a whole one by myself on one load day ;)
