HCG Injections..15 pound loss in ONE wk, can this be????

**Monicole82** · June 7th, 2009, 11:47 AM

Ugh I am still trying to finish all the pages until I am current!

NC-Thanks for the welcome!

CHRI~ Your hair is gorgeous! That style fits you perfectly!

Malia~ Are you on phase 3 now? It looks like you have been doing a pretty good job. Has it been hard? I just started today.

I'm so excited after all the anticipation.

**maliax3** · June 7th, 2009, 11:56 AM

Does this recipe sound correct???? It calls for tomato paste, but when you read the directions it says nothing about adding tomato paste, just to puree the tomatoes and add spices!!! Do I need the paste or is this some typo???

Marinara Sauce
Ingredients
4 large tomatoes or as many as you want if you wish to increase the recipe
1 cup chicken or vegetable broth
1 6 ounce can tomato paste
1 tablespoon dried basil or fresh rolled and chopped basil to taste
2 tablespoons minced onion
2 cloves of garlic crushed and minced
1 teaspoon dried oregano
Salt and pepper to taste
Cayenne pepper to taste
Pinch of marjoram
Directions
Chop tomatoes or puree in a food processor for a smoother texture, add
spices and heat in a saucepan. Allow to slow cook for 30 minutes to an
hour. Allow the liquid to reduce or add additional water to achieve desired
consistency.
Makes 2 or more servings (1 vegetable)

MONICOLE- i am still on P2, I dont start P3 for another 2 weeks. Good luck on your first day, make sure you gorge really good!

**Chrijodo** · June 7th, 2009, 01:00 PM

Thank you ladies for the wonderful compliments.

I LOVE my new hair and I think it's perfect for me too

Malia.. I don't eat my 2nd fruit of the day either. I do veggie and protein for lunch then half way between lunch and dinner I do the fruit and then dinner about 6 or 7 and that's it. And I haven't really plataeued. I also dont do the melba toast as it just made me more hungry.

As for what I eat on P3.. I don't do pasta or breads or sugars. I stay away from corn and potato products. And I eat everything else if I want it. And then on the 2 gorge days I eat all of the things I'm not allowed to eat the rest of the time LMAO.

I'm no help on the recipe as I can't cook to save my life so I'll let someone else field that one

I've got 5 injections left and 1 week left of P2. CRAZY.

**maliax3** · June 7th, 2009, 01:17 PM

CHRI- thanks for that info, I think for now on i will eat that way protein/veggie, then fruit as a snack, the protein/veggie for dinner. I start drinking my water after dinner as well to help out with the hunger since i eat aruond 630-7 and i usually dont go to bed until 12-1.

**NCGreenEyes** · June 7th, 2009, 03:09 PM

Hi ladies! So I woke up to such a wonderful thing this morning (even though I didn't sleep that well) - I lost 1.2lbs just from changing up my recipes (didn't even really change the proteins, just how they were cooked)!!! I am now officially under 220!!!! I'm so excited! My next goal is to lose at least 2 more lbs before Wednesday (end of this "round" for me/start of new "round), that way I'll have lost 20 lbs on my 1st and 2nd rounds. I also have this pair of knee-length jean capris that I keep trying on as motivation - they are size 16, but really I think they are a little big for a 16 - but I can now button and zip them, although I can't really wear them yet because they are still tight, but I CAN BUTTON/ZIP THEM!! Haha.

Oh, and has anyone tried any various beef recipes that are good? I only seem to have a few that I've tried, so I end up eating the same kind of beef recipes and don't really want to do that because it makes me stall. I've tried the sloppy joes, jambalya, and teriyaki sauce.

Chrij - That new hair cut/color is sooo cute!! It def. suits you - I wish I could pull off something like that!

Mal - I made the marinara one time, and I used the tomato paste and just figured that they forgot to add it into the recipe "how to" otherwise it wouldn't be down as an ingredient. You pretty much need it to add the thickness to the recipe, otherwise it'll be pretty watery. I wasn't the biggest fan of the marinara - it was kind of bland for me, but not too terrible. Hope that helps, and congrats on the great weight loss! I'm now convinced that changing up your foods helps!

I just noticed ASU and MO haven't been on here as much as normal, I am trying to remember if MO said she had something going on. Of course, it's summer though so I'm guessing a lot of people won't be on here as much.

**maliax3** · June 7th, 2009, 03:19 PM

NC- i tried the meatball recipie a few days ago, but instead of ground beef, I used ground chicken. It was pretty good

**maliax3** · June 7th, 2009, 03:20 PM

NC- i meant to ask you, how the jambalya was?

**NCGreenEyes** · June 7th, 2009, 03:34 PM

Mal - I forgot I actually have made the mexican meatball soup - that was good. I wasn't actually looking at the recipes I wrote down and had a mind blank lol. The jambalya wasn't bad - spicy!! - I will probably make it some time to change things up, but it's def not my fav. My fav for beef is probably the sloppy joe, but I don't put it on lettuce (I just eat it out of a bowl). I'm getting ready to head out for awhile, but if you want to know how I tweeked the sloppy joe (aka bbq recipe) to be good and not quite so spicy, then I'll type it up later!

**Monicole82** · June 7th, 2009, 05:11 PM

Thanks Malia! This gorging thing is waaay harder than I thought it was gonna be. I am sooo full and I feel bad eating all this after eating well for so long...

I'm gonna just "man up" and not get mad if I throw up!

Wooty woot!!! The hubby finally let me order HcG stuff today!! Tom is to come this week so hopefully as soon as I get it I can start it. I'm so excited!!!!

**maliax3** · June 7th, 2009, 09:48 PM

asu- when you were in P3 i remember you making a post about making a pizza with some type of crust. What type of crust did you buy?

**ASU89** · June 8th, 2009, 12:03 AM

Chri - YOUR HAIR LOOKS AWESOME! And your face is soooo skinny!!

NC - WOW! Way to go girl!!!!! I know you'll lose those 2 more lbs before Wednesday! You're doing wonderful! Congrats on fitting into size 16's!

Ana - You look HOT!!! I can definitely see a difference. Keep it up! How is this round going for you?

Pnoyluva - Congrats! I recommend you buy the book HCG Fat Loss Guide by Linda Prinster... with that, you will not have any questions. It will answer every question you could have. I believe it's only available on Amazon.

Malia - The pizza crust is called "Flat Out" only available at Walmart - in the deli section. Thanks for reminding me. I'm going to buy some tomorrow!!

**Chrijodo** · June 8th, 2009, 12:29 AM

ASU thank you hon

ANA--- YOU look AMAZING!!! I can definitely see the difference! WHOA

It's 11:30 and way past my bed time. I'll "see" you ladies in the morning

**maliax3** · June 8th, 2009, 12:40 AM

Confession time- I went to this new parlor in my area called yogurt oasis...They sell frozen yogurt. I looked at their nutritional info, and there is NO fat, NO carbs, and NO sugar, and ONLY 30 calories per serving........Well I decided to try it and it was great. I feel bad that I cheated, but not so bad since it was almost like eating nothing. I think that will me my "i should treat myself" spot, if this didnt hurt my weighloss

ASU- thanks for that info I will pick some up tomorrow since I planned on going to walmart.

ANA- U can tell that you lost weight, especially in the tummy area

**ClassNsass** · June 8th, 2009, 01:43 AM

ok....I think everyone is ignoring me now! Could someone pleeease tell me where I can order BAC water at a safe/reliable place thats not out of stock? Thanks!

Ana~ You can DEF tell a difference...good job!

**anadingding** · June 8th, 2009, 02:29 AM

Thank you Girls!

Class- Hey girl I would help you but I have no clue. Did you go back again on the site and see if they had more yet? I havent kept up wit the videos lol I have only did it once LOL but Im going to the gym. Im going to try to do it again son. LOL

ASU-- I havent really been good on the protocol. LOL but I haven't done that bad with my eating. My book should be here on the 10th so Im hoping that will help.

**Chrijodo** · June 8th, 2009, 08:29 AM

Class--- you can order from hcg fat loss . com. It's more expensive but they have it and it's quick shipping. Or you can just keep checking at the research supply place until they restock.

Today appears to be my day for a gain after my cheat the other day. (It usually takes a day for my cheats to register). I was up 0.5 lbs this morning. Oh well. We'll see if tomorrow has me down again. Have a good day all.

**maliax3** · June 8th, 2009, 10:35 AM

Good morning- my frozen yogurt, did no damage today, I still lost, but as you know I dont how much I weight

**maliax3** · June 8th, 2009, 10:37 AM

Class- have you tried google..... The last time someone posted about bac water being out og stock, I posted a whole list of sites that were in stock, but I cant remember what page that was on.

**bratface** · June 8th, 2009, 12:47 PM

Hiya girlies,

I'm on day1 of VLCD today. It sounds crazy to say that I'm relieved gorging is over but I am! I ate so much I constantly felt like puking. Today I'm going to work on clearing the fats from the fridge to get rid of temptations or anything accidental that I might use/eat.

Congrats to all on your continuing losses! Where are Mo and ASU?

Oh yeah, my start weight after gorging and all is 183.8.... eeeek!

One more thing, I ordered my bac water seperately from gpzservices.com. I found the site on a bodybuilding/supplement web site that folks were ordering from. It was cheap and seemed to come quickly.

I ordered mine from them: http://www.discountanabolics.com/

The bottles were 3.99 or so and the shipping was 5.95.

**anadingding** · June 8th, 2009, 01:53 PM

Hey girlies,

Just stopping by before I leave. Going to do my hours at my field experience, then shopping at Walmart, then meeting my friend for the gym.

Everyone is doing such an awesome job! I cant wait to be in the 180's Darn Scale. I hope I'm at least 190 by the 10th when I weigh in. LOL

**NCGreenEyes** · June 8th, 2009, 03:42 PM

So...I'm not a happy camper today

I somehow gained .8lbs since yesterday, and I didn't cheat at all and had all my water! I didn't even eat both of my fruits, and didn't have any melba toast. I am apparently back in the up,down,up,down stage that I was at the end of my last round. This is sooo frustrating - especially since I was so happy yesterday to be out of the 220's, and here I am right back in it!

I'm doing a steak day today, and I made myself do a 20 min "fitness walking" video on demand. For anyone that has time warner - exercise tv on demand is awesome! It has soooo many different workout videos that you can choose from, and it's all free, as much as you want! Since we are really only supposed to walk on this diet, I LOVE the "Start Walking" videos (there is a 1, 2, and 3 mile video), and the instructor is really encouraging in it too, which is nice. So I'm going to apparently have to start doing the walking as many days as I can make myself. Here's hoping tomorrow and then on goes better...I can't stand this up/down mess!!

Monicole - Glad to have you joining us, it's tough, but I'm sure if you set your mind to it that you will succeed!!

Ana - I can definitely tell a difference, especially just in the shape of your body - I've noticed that with mine as well that my "shape" is slowly starting to come back and that looks like what yours is doing too! Good job!

ASU - Thanks! I think the 16's though are actually more like 18's, because that's the size i'm wearing in other stuff right now, but that still means I've come down, which is nice. It doesn't look like I'm going to get those 2 lbs tho...I need 3 now

Chrij - Keep your head up, at least you didn't gain much from your cheat!

Mal - Lucky girl to have still lost with that cheat!

brat - That's a good idea to clear the tempting stuff out - It was easy for me since shortly after I started my husband and I separated so I sent all of the fatty stuff with him LOL! Best of luck with joining us - I'm sure you'll do great!

Everyone else - Keep up the good work and for those not started yet, we can't wait to have you join us! BTW, where are MO and Tex??

**Chrijodo** · June 8th, 2009, 06:01 PM

NC... I totally understand the frustration of the up and down at the end of the round. I have 4 injection days left and I'm hoping it keeps going down. I expected the up today but if I'm up or don't lose tomorrow I'm going to be upset because I've been a good girl other than that one cheat.

Mo and ASU and Tex are apparently some busy women

I know Mo does alot of hours on the weekend at work I think I she said so she might be recooperating. As for ASU and Tex.. I have NO idea.. Come out come out where ever you are ladies

I'm more hungry today than I usually am, I'm not sure why. I haven't changed anything in my habits. Maybe it's my body being ticked because I gave it carbs a few days ago? I really don't know. *whine*

**BreeBabby** · June 8th, 2009, 06:36 PM

HEY EVERYONE!

IM WODERING HOW MANY ROUNDS EVERYONE HAS DONE?
HOW MUCH WEIGHT HAVE YOU LOST ON EACH ROUND?
HOW LONG WAS EACH ROUND?
& WHERE YOU BOUGHT IT FROM?

**maliax3** · June 8th, 2009, 08:13 PM

ladies these mircle noodles arent that bad, I made marinara to go with them, and I heard sbout the noodles absorbing the flavor of whatever you cook them in, so i cooked them in the marinara instead of boiling water, and it was great, I hope this doesnt hurt me, but i really think I will start to eat these more often

**ASU89** · June 8th, 2009, 08:54 PM

Not trying to start anything, but I really think you have asked this about 5 times now. Read this whole forum from page 1 to 101 and you will know everything you need to know.

**maliax3** · June 8th, 2009, 09:49 PM

i agree with asu, and im sure a lot of other ppl have thought the same thing, when it comes to you asking the same questions, heck when i started hcg, i was told just like you to read the thread, and i did, took me a day and a half, but it was worth it bc i learned a lot and i didnt have any questions, except for random ones that were not posted in this thread, pls just read, i know its alot but ur questions will be answered if you read.

**Chrijodo** · June 8th, 2009, 09:59 PM

Malia.. I've been wanting to try the Miracle Noodles too but after everyone's bad reviews of it, I was afraid to buy a big batch of them and no one sells them here. I hope they don't effect your weight any so you can keep eating them. I miss noodles more than anything else i think ( I'm a big pasta girl)

**ASU89** · June 8th, 2009, 10:26 PM

You guys don't have to worry about the Miracle Noodles... you can eat them whenever you want... I'd just limit how many bags you eat a day.

**maliax3** · June 8th, 2009, 11:03 PM

Chri- i saw that you live in orange park?? How far away is that from Mandarin????? If its not too far there is an international store in that area that sells the noodles by pack, not by bulk.
