Shelby hasn't popped in yet because she is in Mexico right now. If she was around I am sure she would have weighed in as well. Not sure when she gets back stateside, but she is having a fabulous time!

I am up 1 pound this morning vlcd 26

which really sucks because I wanted to end P2 on wed. or Thurs. this week.

Jeanyyy · 01-29-2013, 09:11 AM

Down .6 this morning, so I am back to the weight I was on Friday.. lol Week 4 is turning out to be another "Week 2" for me!! One more day to go to complete the week. This round is definitely a bit slower than R1 for me, with a lot more constipation issues. Ugh!

WTG !!!!

I'm tossing around the idea of not stopping but using my 2 weeks as a planned interruption. What do you think, risky?

toomuchbooty · 01-29-2013, 11:50 AM

Down another pound. Almost at 10lbs down on VLCD9.

WTG, Dawnyama and Jeanny.

Jabbock, bummer on the upswing but I'm sure it will be gone in a heartbeat!

wtg you are off to a really good start.

Lifeisgood · 01-29-2013, 05:08 PM

QUESTION ALL:

I'm on VLCD 20, and woke up with a terrible sore throat and cough. Has anyone successfully used cold medicines, cough drops, throat spray, etc on P2? And if so, what did you do or get to be in compliance with protocol. I have to do something since I'm on the phone all day for my job and need to lubricate my throat. Yikes!

toomuchbooty · 01-30-2013, 07:44 AM

Lifeisgood, I've never taken cold mess during hcg. I also have a career that involves talking for most of the day. I recently had a cold, so I sipped tea all day to keep my throat moist. Bonus, it adds to your water intake! A ginger tea would be best!

toomuchbooty · 01-30-2013, 07:45 AM

Drumroll please...... 2.6lb drop ever night! Amazing stuff, this hcg.

Down another 1.5 this morning 7 pounds total on day 4 of VLCD

sillyme · 01-30-2013, 04:08 PM

Wow congrats on all the losses going on! Send the whoosh fairy my way! Although i did weigh myself after a short nap when i got home from work and i was down a pound from this morning's weigh in....yep i know shouldn't weigh more than once a day...honestly didn't expect it to me down though

buttah · 01-30-2013, 05:46 PM

Congrats to all the losers! Fantastic news! And the about-to-losers too!

Thanks, I happen to have some ginger tea and think I'll have some right now. I had to take the day off 102 fever so talking is not a problem today, I've just been sleeping. Congratulations on the big loss! I think that the prescription HCG must be better. I'm not experiencing big losses like that. I'm at 15 lbs for 21 days. I've already had to do an apple day for a 5 day stall and always lose 2 lbs when I do that, usually followed by three more days of a stall, we will see.

You still have a loss of .71 per day which is above average for women I think you are doing great kutgw!

I hope you feel better soon.

Good morning, everyone ! Happy Thursday

Arrrrrg.... I'm up 1.2 lbs. today !!!!! I didn't even cheat ..... I did have Bragg's last night- sauteed chicken- sodium, maybe ???? Hum.....

I am sorry you are up drink lots of water today and you should see a whoosh tomorrow, it could be the sodium.

rocketmom · 01-31-2013, 06:33 AM

P4D25 and down a total of 14 lbs. I am happy, but for some reason, I have been very hungry! Plus I have not be able to sleep.

Symptoms usually in the first few days have now appeared. In addition to these symptoms, I have been experiencing something that I can only describe as bloating. My tummy hurts and I feel very uncomfortable. I am puzzled as I haven't had any gassy stuff like cabbage. I have had to unbutton my jeans if I am sitting and knitting. Veryyyy strange.

I want to lose 11 more to get to my ultimate goal but after this 40 day round I am going to switch up to paleo eating. I don't know if I will lose to goal, but I think hcg will be put on the back shelf. It is just too hard to do and according to P&I hcg is not to be used unless there is like only 15 pounds to lose. I needed to lose 25 because I didn't stabilize after my last round and then became the ultimate sugar and carb fiend. I have all the good intentions in the world to stabilize well this time and then maintain! The two pound rule and correction days as soon as I go over the line will be my new mantra.

Jeanyyy · 01-31-2013, 07:32 AM

Down 1 lb today to 14.9 lbs as of R2P2Day29. So still around the average of .5 per day... yay!! Bring it on!!

heahyou00 · 01-31-2013, 01:12 PM

Hi Girls,
I am down a few more pds since the last time I checked it, that is a total of 15 pds and I am on day 26 round 2, not great, but I will take it!! The first round I lost 24 pounds and went a lil over the 40 days. I wanted to lose more this time, but you can only do what your body allows lol.

Anyway, busy weekend coming up, my sons 14th bday party and superbowl. I am staying away from the booze and snacks, thats for sure!! I am only 3 pounds away from an all time low weight in my adult history!! I am super excited and I can taste the 160's which I have never seen on the scales! How exciting is that, its an exicting time in my journey, the thought of getting into virgin territory def gives me motivation to keep going.

vanna1970 · 01-31-2013, 02:57 PM

Hello everyone!

It's nice to see some familiar faces! I started a new round on Monday. I had loaded over the weekend. Today is my fourth VLCD and I'm down 5 pounds in the first 3 days! Very happy with my progress. But today, I was absolutely starving. I was weak and shaky, the whole works. I was teetering on giving up, but I didn't. I'm using the Intermountain pellets. Has anyone else experienced this on the pellets? Any advice on the hunger issue?

Jeanyyy · 01-31-2013, 08:43 PM

So I had gum surgery today (don't ask) and under strict instructions to have only "cold and soft" foods. I ended up eventually having a strawberry-spinach-cottage cheese smoothie and just now, a 1/2 cup of wild blueberries in a 7 oz container of Fage 2%. OMG... I ♥ love ♥ this yogurt. I had bought one to try the last time I was down at TJ's in Bellingham. Yum!!

Is the 0% one just as good?
