new to hcg -questions when hypo

qbert · 03-13-2013, 05:09 AM

I looked at a popular brand of drops and it said to discontinue all prescription meds while using the drops. I'm hypo so I can't do this...how do the hypo people handle this when doing the program?

I plan on using drops but I want to up the calories a bit, which I've read some programs have endorsed. I'm thinking of the Sonia Russell type of program.

Any suggestions on where to start? Not sure if I should find another brand of drops at this point.

If anyone is starting this with high cals, I'd love to compare notes.

I am hypothyroid, hypo-adrenal, and hypo-e and t. I continued all my meds, at regular doses with no issues on both the homeopathic and the rx. I did the traditional Simeons 500 calorie plan because I needed to lose the weight more than I needed to tweak calories. A lot of people do--I just didn't. Welcome and GOOD LUCK!

I am also hypothyroid and am doing the homeopathic drops. I continue on my Armour medication while doing P2. No problems for me. I, like Shelby, follow Simeon's protocol and do the 500 calories. I saw no need to tweak the original at all.
