Feeling sick on HCG- just started

junkn · 06-29-2012, 08:32 AM

hi, i am on my first VLCD on P2. i took hcg pellets for the first time 3 days ago when i was loading and remember feeling a little weird.

so today is my first VLCD, i had coffee and feeling sick again. not really nauseous but just weird.

is this normal?

'Weird' isn't very descriptive for a symptom, but both the detox from sugar/carbs AND the nature of hCG causing mild pregnancy-like symptoms could be contributing to how you feel. It is normal to be fatigued or feel flu-like symptoms in the first week of taking hCG, and I assume hhCG has similar side effects.

sorry. weird= feeling like morning sickness maybe? thanks for the confirmation because it does feel a little like morning sickness.

i ate clean before the two loading days. i felt a little sick on the first day of loading and my first time taking hhcg ever.

just hoping this feeling will pass and looking forward to the end of the week.

My daughter and her dh just began Intermountain pellets a couple of weeks ago and he said that he felt weird. Almost lightheaded? I was surprised because I remember feeling queazy when I loaded with RX, but didn't expect that he would feel the symptoms.

How are you feeling today? Getting in enough water?

hi misslatte! yes i drink a lot of water. i still feel the same this morning. a little lightheaded but it goes away as the day goes on (or at least it did the past few days). i just ate a few strawberries in hopes that it will help.

i hope it goes away for good eventually

i have a 3 year old so its kind of hard to be energetic with him when i'm feeling like this
