I was thinking it was just me and my lack of willpower but seeing that others are struggling with this makes me feel better that it may not be "just me". I was having trouble after every P3. I seem to gain weight easily too!! I think I have found the key to maintaining this time. I hope this is the way for us to keep it off

Dawn, it certainly wasn't just you. Although some of us gained more back than others, we nevertheless did gain!!
Most of my problems came as soon as I entered P4......got so tired of doing CD after CD......so now, we have a sustainable CD every other day with JUDDD!

No worries about getting down to LDW!!!!

I am so glad to hear all the great feedback on the experience with hcg and JUDDD from Gracie and Laurie.

Now for me just to figure out how I want to proceed going from P3 to JUDDD for me to maintain !!

It's been almost a month since I finished up my last round , and I'm down from my LIW about 4 lbs. THAT'S a first!

YAY !! congrats
What are you usual meals like on JUDDD?

theredhead · 12-12-2011, 12:26 PM

Truthfully, I'm super-boring, and a bit picky. On Buttoni's low carb recipe blog, I found a great, simple recipe for veggie beef soup. I use Costco canned roast beef in it and it's a great big bowl for about 135 calories. I also use Egg substitute to make eggs scrambled with a sliced, FF Oscar Mayer hot dog wiener + Garlic & Herb Laughing Cow cheese. I've stocked my pantry with some Progresso Lite soups, although I haven't gotten around to eating many of them yet. I did a stir-fry thing once with lots of veggies, soy sauce, ginger, and garlic. I love the 100 calorie packs of microwave popcorn. I love Frito Lay Sunflower seeds. It takes quite awhile to eat a 180 calories package and it has 6 gms of protein. Sometimes I just make a simple hot dog by wrapping a FF wiener in a piece of Nature's Own Lite Sourdough bread and add mustard. Really, my DDs are nothing special, but I really don't care. I'm actually getting pretty good appetite suppression this way.

On my UDs, I'm eating my usual low-carb fare, with a bit of sourdough bread thrown in here and there, and of course, the popcorn. Oh, I forgot to mention too that on DDs AND some UDs, I'm eating a bowl of oatmeal, sweetened with Ideal (xylitol) and SF Pancake Syrup. For lunch yesterday, I had pot roast with roasted carrots, green beans with bacon, and Linda Sue's Just Like Baked Stuffed Potatoes. Later, when I had a lot of calories left, I guiltily indulged in a Hershey's Chocolate Almond Bar (210 cals). And, by the way, I started JUDDD the week of Thanksgiving, lost 2-3 lbs, ate everything I wanted on Wednesday and Thanksgiving Day, and went right back to a DD. Within 2-3 days, the extra weight left. I've bounced up and down around the last 2-3 pounds, but the trend is definitely down. It's working for me. Hope this helps!

I couldn't ever imagine her having FUN, especially playing an instrument, lol.

Hey, Sazzie! We certainly have a lot in common. hCG is an amazingly good way to lose the weight, but I was disappointed that, at least in my case, there didn't seem to be any "resetting" of the hypothalamus. I gained weight back just as easily as I gained it the first fifty times, lol. JUDDD seems a much more sustainable way to maintain.

Yup, Brian is a close relative and also has played with many famous players too. Hope you got to hear him! Now I wonder about the "box" you mentioned, it was probably one of those small ones, lots of people had those way back when - they were about the size of a small lunch pail! ( but then you are too young to have ever seen a metal lunch pail!

Take Care!

Leona, I DID listen to a bit of Brian's music. He's very good! My friend's mother had one just like it, I think. I thought it was an accordian. I guess I'll have to go look it up to see what the difference is.
