[ASU89]

ASU89- can you send me an invite to join the new HCG Group.

Mo- Can you tell where you brought your flavored stevia for water. I been to whole foods as well as regular stores and couldn't find it.

Thanks

If your local stores don't have Stevia, you can order it online.

[texasbeauty1982]

YAY!!! i just got my supply kit!!! ughhhh now if only the hcg would hurry up lmao!!

[NCGreenEyes]

Hi everyone! Hope you all are going well! ASU - hope you are feeling much better!

I lost 1.8 lbs today, so 9 lbs lost total in 5 days!! I'm soo thrilled!!!

Briggetta - Don't be too hard on yourself - at least you cheated with something low fat and still lost a little bit! Just tell yourself every day is a new day

grandma_wannabe - They don't sell it at pharmacies that I know of. I'm getting mine through a weight loss clinic, and most other people on here are ordering it online. I don't know if there are age restrictions, but it helps you lose weight in combination with a very low calorie diet (I think most of us are doing 500 cals a day) and restrictions of what you can eat. Instead of losing muscle like you would if you just did the diet with no HCG, the HCG pulls the abnormal fat from your body to use as fuel, just like it would take your abnormal fat to help provide for a baby if you were pregnant. When it is used for fertility, it is taken in MUCH higher doses than when it is used for weight loss. I also have not heard anything about there being a shortage in NC? I can't imagine that it has anything to do with it being used for weight loss since as I said the dose is soo much lower than what would be used for fertility treatment.

I Have a question that hopefully someone can answer. I have a friend that would like to try the hcg protocol. She has inattentive adhd and cannot take the Phentermine; it puts her to sleep. She quit taking her adderall so she could take the Phentermine cause her doctor said that it was the same thing. While taking adderall she could focus but she didn't get that speed thing. When she took the phen it put her in bed for like days at a time. Her doctor said he didn't know of the hcg protocol and put her back on the Adderall. She really doesn't like taking it cause it has messed her metabolism up. Do you think she could try it? They put her on it cause of fatigue and unability to focus. When she went off it one other time and changed her diet to nothing that had sugar in it she actually had alot of energy but eventually went back to eating junk and then back to adderall. So what do you guys think?????

[Terrie1]

brewdow- I am sorry that you fell off the wagon but I have to say your statement made me laugh out loud. I could just picture someone flying in the air and well it helped my morning. You have been doing a great job and you are sure to get where you want to be. Horses or not ha ha

[grandma_wannabe]

So how much do you usually lose in one day? I thought 1-2 pounds a week was the safe way to lose and the way to keep it off.

[grandma_wannabe]

Yes they absolutely do sell it at pharmacies, all the time. My daughter has a prescription for it. Since none of the pharmacies have it in stock, and she has to have it in about 10 days, her doctor's office has reserved some for her. How often do you take it? For fertility, it's one shot a month, right around ovulation. I've always lost at right around 1000 calories a week, drinking more water and I also use the diet a couple weeks and then take a week off to jumpstart my metabolism. Yes, there really is a shortage in NC due to it being used for weight loss, the fertility doctors are aware of the problem and doing what they can to keep some reserved for fertility patients. There may be the same problem in other states, I don't know - I just know about the problem here. I would like to know how the HcG works with the phen and the low calories.......I don't see how anything could make you lose much more if you are 500 calories, but I don't claim to be an expert.

Ladies.... my friend that started on the HCG needs advice......... She dropped her veil of HCG ... an it BROKE/ She was on her 10th day.... an her order has not come in yet. The only thing I could think of for her to do is to go straight into Phase 3 and try to maintain.......
Any thoughts on this matter......

Thanks

[grandma_wannabe]

What dose do most of you take? Also, when I was pregnant, my HcG evidently didn't work so good,,,,,,I always had excess weight to lose after giving birth. I would love to read some info on this, it's absolutely blowing my mind that this could help me finish taking off the last 25 pounds so easily.

Do you know how much longer until her next order of HCG will be in? I'd say if it's within 5 days, just keep her on VLCD as if she was on TOM... If it will be longer than that, then I think going to phase 3 is the best option. HOWEVER, remind her to stay on VLCD for 2 days after her last injection so the HCG will get out of her.
That really stinks!

Thank you for the info.

[ncgirl37]

I do have one quick question...I read the whole thread through and did not see this...so please forgive me if it has been discussed. I saw this place online that has HCG oral drops...anyone know if this would work the same? They were expensive IMO $120. They were on Ebay and the person had great feedback...so was curious as I have not tried the HCG yet myself but am going to shortly.

I am going to a weight loss clinic starting May 6 and they offer the injections and the phentermine and I am going to get the injections there. Just not so keen on the shots (yes I am a big baby) but I am going to try them there and see what I think. Just was curious about the oral drop things...sorry if it has been asked already! Thanks and this is a wonderful forum!

[ASU89]

MOOO WHERE ARE YOU?!!?!

[Chrijodo]

*crawls out from under a rock*
My TOM showed up yesterday and I feel like death. However it totally explains why I have been STUCK at this weight for a week now. So we shall see what I actually weigh once TOM passes.

ASU-- am glad that the ER visit turned out to be nothing serious.

Whomever asked about the reusing of vials and needles (forgive me, too lazy too go back and hunt it up). I'm a nurse and there is NO WAY I WOULD EVER REUSE! Bleach will NOT sterilize things it will simply kills some bacteria on the surface. It's NOT a risk I would even think about taking. I am a nursing student as well as an LPN so I get trying to save money but this isn't the place to skimp. JMO.

ASU-- thanks for sharing the link for the supplies, much cheaper than hcgfatloss.com lovely

Too lazy to reply to everything else but I hope everyone else is doing well. Going to go curl up with my heating pad now.

[ASU89]

Chrijodo, I get what you mean. I got TOM today..... and cravings got the best of me. Hope you feel better.

[QUOTE=NCGreenEyes;921821]Hi everyone! Hope you all are going well! ASU - hope you are feeling much better!

I lost 1.8 lbs today, so 9 lbs lost total in 5 days!! I'm soo thrilled!!!


okay, i need to know exactly what you are doing. How much are you taking? when? what are you eating? Are you taking anything else? How much water? Exercise? I am doing awful.

[greeniz22]

Hello All
Gorge day 1 is done - not sure if I ate enough. I ordered a large extra cheese pizza, ate one piece then took the cheese off of half of the pizza. I grazed on that all day. I feel like I should have had more naughty food!!! I will get some nice steak tomorrow.

Am I setting my mini goals realistically? I dont want to disappoint myself.

Everyone has been so inspiring. Keep up the good work. I cant wait to share my results!!!

[greeniz22]

One more thing - I feel like I have known you ladies forever!!! I wished we lived near each other. I want to give you some history about myself. I was overweight my entire life (except at birth - but that didnt last long lol). I was tortured thru school (being fat and having the last name of Eaton!!!! - ok) I remember being 76 pounds in kindergarten and even my pediatrician making fun of me. I was about 260 pounds in high school - MO you know that kind of torture.

After High School - I always meant nice, hot guys - I guess like MO, It was my sparkling personality. I got married in 1999 at a weight of 400 pounds. I deceided to get a gastic bypass. I had that surgery in February 2000 and got down to about 240. I put on and off about 20 pounds (my doc says not bad), but despite dieting, cant get lower. I dont ever remember being in the 100"s.

You ladies have inspired me to not give up. I will be in the 100 club soon!!!

Sorry to take up so much of your time, but I have been reading all of your stories, and I felt it was time to share mine.

Thank you all again

Hugs -

Wow from 400 lbs to 240 lbs that is great!!! I'm glad you're giving HCG a try. Definitely try eating more tomorrow! Good luck, we are all here for you!

[ASU89]

Okay, so I am really getting down on myself. Today is my 39th day on VLCD. I have cheated SOOO much throughout this whole thing, especially at the beginning. My weight keeps going up and down. Today I unexpectedly received TOM and I got some cravings and gave in. I ate a medium thin crust sausage pizza all to myself. I feel so disgusting. I was a 166.2 lbs a few days ago, then gained almost 3 lbs from the IV's in the hospital. I lost 1.8 today from the apple day... now I know I'm going to gain that back PLUS some tomorrow. Tomorrow is my last day I'm doing VLCD then I'm going to do no starches and sugar, and really stick to it. It just depresses me how much I have been playing with HCG and messing with it to the point that I have only lost 20 lbs in the past 39 days. I know 20 lbs is still wonderful, but I was expecting to lose at least 30 lbs with these 40 days. After tomorrow I am going to do no sugars and starches and try to incorporate more exercise into my daily routine. I'm going to start my second round on May 9th and I hope to try to lose weight on my own until then. I really hope I can be 160 by my next round... Ugh. I just feel so s h i t t y right now.

[sheemy05]

Sent you the cookbook. Okay, you will want to give yourself injections on the day you start your gorge days. You do the 500 calories for as long of a round you want to do... 23, 28 or 40 days. You stay away from the lotions and lipgloss (with OIL) until your round is over. You can eat whatever kind of apples you want, an apple is an apple.

[sheemy05]

How long is this actual diet take until you get to the maintenance point i now know 40 days of injections and 40 days of 500 calorie after that then i now know no starch no sugar but for how long is that ?

[sheemy05]

What are the main thing that we need to look out for when it comes to products that we use like powder deodorant toothpaste. I know diffently oil what else.

[texasbeauty1982]

SHEEMY05- I know they tell you to NOT use this and that when it comes to lotions and lipgloss but come on, we are women!! we have to look good for our men!! Just switch ur face moisturizer to oil-free and if u use creamy foundations, then u really should see if u can find an oil-free based one, other than that, I wont be changing any of my personal care...it wont hurt you, its just the best way to keep oil's and crap from absorbing into your skin and since oil contains fat, thats why they say to stay away...Also, the diet consists of this:
Day 1&2- GORGE DAYS (also start injections on day 1)
Day 3 till 23/28 or 40-you are on P2 which is the strict diet and protocol to follow
Day 41-62(3wks)-P3-no starches or sugars but you can eat more regular foods
and if you want to, u can start another round of HCG at least 4wks after u stopped ur last 40-day round of HCG. Does that make sense?? If you do the 23 or 28 day rounds then u can start back up on another round of HCG after 2wks or so...your body just becomes immune to it pretty fast thats why u must wait ok? I will be doing the 23 day rounds myself becuz I see how everyone (aka ASU and many others) struggle with cheating and stuff while doing the 40 day rounds so 3wks on and 2wks off should be a lot easier on the body...Also, if you buy a 40 day round og HCG, it will split into 2 of the shorter rounds...so u dont have to wait till ur next order comes into to start again ok?? Hope this helps...I may have missed something but its 6am so Im still half asleep lol Good Luck!

ASU- hang in there girlie...it'll be ok..u have had a lot going on this past week so when u get on ur next round of hcg, try doing the half rounds...Im sure that'll work better for u

MO-WTF??!!?? where the heck are u at??!! we are missing our cult leader lmao

[TheToyMaker]

My supplies arrived! My supplies arrived! Now if only the hcg would show up by Friday.... This waiting is excruciating.

[TheToyMaker]

How do I change the weight info that displays underneath my picture? I've looked in the User CP but cannot seem to find it. Thanks!

[anadingding]

Hi everyone. I've been her a while just spying LOL and now I want to try it too! I've ordered my supplies so hopefully they will be here by next weekend.

I have a question I really only like chicken breast and the protocol says that you cant have the same thing for lunch and dinner. How can I do this! Any suggestions, does anyone have any recipes on different ways to prepare the chicken If you I will appreciate it if anyone can email me it anadingding@yahoo.com.

[texasbeauty1982]

THETOYMAKER- while u r in a thread like this one, click on ur picture on the left...when u do this, it will bring u to another screen and in small writing in the middle of the page somewhere it will say "About me" "Statistics" "Friends" etc etc...click on the "ABOUT ME" section and that is where u can change and update all ur info that everyone see's ok?

[texasbeauty1982]

ANADINGDING-unfortunately u just cant have chicken twice a day...u have to change it up...you CAN have chicken daily but u just cant eat it more than once a day...sux I know...of course you can alwasy try it and see if it works for u but its against the actual protocol so its up to you k? Did u order ur supply kit AND the hcg? I ordered my supply kit last thursday and got it in the mail yesterday so it took 3 days to get! it was fast! you will get everything b4 u know it and start shrinking like crazy...good luck and welcome to the board!
