P2 Day 5- 129.6 (-1.5, total -8.7)

Yay! Hi again twenties :-)

491 calories today... went to my dad's "happy hour" at his residence, and the two diet sodas I had had me craving off program food - but this passed quickly - with those results, I'd be nuts to veer off plan!

Soooo happy with how things are going!

P2 Day 4 - 131.1 (-1.5, total -7.2)

Yay!!

I'm really pleased with how well this is going! Pleased also at how well I'm sleeping, and how even my moods are - just like on HCG. From what I've read, not everyone reacts as well to HHCG as they do HCG, and I'm glad I'm someone who is reacting the same or possibly even better!

490 calories today, and I'm getting less and less hungry. I did space out my apple through the morning, which is working beautifully.

Onwards!!

P2 Day 3 - 132.6 (-1.1, total -5.7)

Another nice release! Today I was headachy and a bit dragged out, so I spaced my lunch throughout the day, a little apple just after I got to work, the chicken, cucumber at lunch, and the rest of the apple a bit later. Total calories for the day  483.

I am loving feeling in control again! Walked through a delicatessen in search of coffee and didn't find the pastries tempting - one mess up is so not worth not getting results when I'm working so hard. I really want to have this be my mindset once I'm off the HHCG too.

Have a great day folks!

Phase 2 Day 2 - 133.7 (-4.6)

Well, so far so good! I felt great yesterday, not hungry, a little "empty", but not hungry.

Today has been much the same, I noticed that I slept heavily (which is how it was on HCG as well), and woke up well rested. So far, I'm feeling good! Can't wait to see how it goes over the coming weeks, it's kind of fun to compare the results to  using "real" HCG as opposed to the homeopathic HCG.

Food today was pretty much the same as yesterday, black coffee for breakfast, lots of water, chicken breast, cucumber and apple for lunch, and extra lean ground beef, tomato and strawberries for dinner. My calorie count for the day was 484.

I'm feeling good, it feels great to be in control again too!

Phase 2, Day 1 VLCD Start weight: 138.3

It's been a great day, I'm tolerating the HHCG well so far. My calories came in at 461, and I really enjoyed my simple, clean foods.

I'm not hungry, feeling good. Can't wait to see the scale tomorrow!!!

Phase 1 - Loading

Well, I loaded for two days, the old school way, gained a total of 3.1. I focused on high fat, high protein foods, with the exception of a sushi lunch, and a white chocolate blueberry scone (yum!), and while I definitely went through 3000 or so calories per day, didn't have that sick feeling that my usual loading created.

On to Phase 2! I'm excited to see if the HHCG kills hunger the same way as HCG.

Stay tuned...

Ok. So this is what's been going on...

Tried some "real" HCG that I'd gotten. Did the injections for six weeks, was constantly hungry, cheating a lot... lost all of 10 pounds. And now have gained 8 of those back.

Now ten pounds in six weeks on any other program would be respectable. On this particular round, it was torturous and not worth it. I can only think the HCG I got was no longer potent.

Anyway, onwards. With sources of the real deal drying up, I ordered some HHCG (homeopathic HCG). It arrived today. I am starting two days of loading tomorrow. Old school, full on loading and P2 starts Saturday.

I'm hopeful, excited, a little nervous. Something has got to give and I'm hoping this is it!!

Stay tuned folks! And now I'm going to go see how some of my peeps have been doing on program :-)
