intermountain pellets or drops....
 

Which are better?

Intermountain pellets all the way baby! :up:

i agree!!

i used both for my first round and the pellets are sooo much easier. the drops- i couldn't talk while it was in my mouth, i never knew how long to keep it there for, and it was just inconvenient.

pellets are sooo much better :)

I tried the drops for the first round and found that they were a little inconvenient to use. They were homeopathic. I also heard that they can stop working if you touch the dropper to your tongue or anywhere else that might contaminate it. I was also hungry for the first couple of days, and off and on throughout the phase.
This time I just started VLCD yesterday. I didn't feel hungry, and I am down 4.4 lbs already. Other than having the Intermountain pellets being a little hard to hold onto and pour out of the bottle, they are very easy. I use 3 each time, they are very tiny. Hold them under your tongue a few minutes and then chew them up. They are actually a good flavor. The HCG is on the outside of the pellet and that is what you need to dissolve.
Good luck.

Pellets!! Much better!! :up:

So glad I got the pellets. I agree with everything said above. I only wish I started them sooner. Much more convenient.

Pellets

I've been using the pellets but I've been putting them under my tongue and then I keep kind of rolling them around until they get really small. Am I supposed to be chewing them up?

I have some pellets I wrote this in another post. I was worried about them being old so I emailed the manufacturer and they told me to buy new ones. Well I was out of town and when I got home I looked and they dont expire until nov 2013 so I would think they would still be ok. Should I use them?

Of course the company wants you buy more!!! They SELL them and want to sell more of them :hyst::hyst: I would go ahead and use the opened ones. I have done numerous rounds and at the end I have leftovers in the bottle. I store them in a dry, dark spot (in my cabinet) and they are just fine. Even a year later. I am so cheap that I would hesitate to buy more. But that is MY opinion.......

Anyone recall how long they took to arrive if you ordered directly from the mfr?

Nope. Don't remember, but it was not long.

I know it was less than a week until mine arrived.

thanks Ladies :shake: Hoping they show up with tomorrows mail.

I ordered mine from the mfr. last Thursday and I got them yesterday. I was shocked at how fast they arrived. I'm loading this Saturday and Sunday and want to be down a few more before I do because I usually gain between 8-10#, but it's gone in a week. :)

Thanks Stephanie! hoping they'll be in tomorrows mail. :sing:

Wish I had seen this thread earlier, I ordered drops!

Guess I'm the only voice of contention, but I love the drops. For some reason, I had a lot of hunger on the pellets and I just couldn't get them dissolved - took forever and I was afraid to just chew them up. Plus they were hard to get out of the bottle without too many falling out and you can't touch them or you will ruin the rest of the bottle.

As long as I use the dropper a couple inches above my mouth so I don't touch the dropper on my teeth or lips, etc., the drops work beautifully. I work from home, so transporting them isn't an issue.

I never have hunger issues with the drops, so I've stuck with them.

Glad the drops work for you! :up: That's interesting about the pellets. I've dumped them in my hand since day #1 and put the extras back in. Never had issues with contamination/deactivatlon and no hunger issues at all. :up: That's just me. :D

i have had success on both HTH

I've had great results with the pellets and no hunger. My mom also used them and didn't have any hunger.

I just reordered from the mfg. There is a promo code for 35% off. They sell two bottles for $49.99 and then take another 35% off. I bought 4 bottles for $64.99 and free shipping. The promo code is IM35

Thanks for the code, but I just tried using it and it says "A minimum purchase of 1490.00 is required for im35 coupon"...
Does anyone have any codes to share?

That's the same message I got, too. Guess they switched the discount to only those who are resellers. =(

I just went ahead and bought them.. the price was pretty good.

What is the dose you all use? I know YMMV, but I looking for some guidelines.

I did IM 3 pellets, 3x per day before and would get hungry in the evening. I just restarted today and did 3 about 6:30 and 3 more about noon. I skipped breakfast and had lunch at 1:00ish. It is 4:00 and I feel fine now.

Any suggestions?

I did the 3 3X a day and was fine. I have seen some do 3/2/3 so if you want to change up do 3 in the AM; 2 in the afternoon; 3 in the night. That is what I would do if I needed to switch it up.

HCG has not come to this part of asia (Singapore) and i would have to buy online and ship over

But izzit just me? I can't find any HCG products on netrition.com

And also, do you guys take any multi-vit while on it?

Netrition no longer sells HCG products. There is still a small amount of clearance products available, however. See this post.
