The lost post from 2/21--sorry about that! "16 Pounds Gones"

Okay, guys, I just found this lost post from Feb. 21--I'm going to inset it anyway. Sorry about that! --Merry

16 pounds gone!


Oh, it feels good writing those words. Tomorrow is my 23rd injection, and I'm really considering when to stop so I don't get immune. I'm thinking Tuesday or Wed. will be my last dose, and then the three days on VLCD without the shots--so I'll finish Friday or so. I really want to be done by the weekend, because I'm going to a seminar all day Saturday, and it's much easier if I can eat a bit more. I probably will still bring my lunch, but I'm really looking forward to more protein!

And speaking of protein, we just got a fourth of a cow, and it's all neatly in the freezer! I can't wait to have a big juicy steak, but although steak is allowed on phase 2, I don't know how lean this meat really is, so I don't know if it's okay. I did have some of the hamburger, but I rinsed it off really well first. On the other hand, I didn't lose anything that day either, so I'm thinking to wait on the steak.

I was really hoping to lose 20 pounds this round, so we'll see if I make it. I'm tempted to try some coconut oil too, which seems to break a stall for some people. If tomorrow I'm still the same--which will be day 4 of the stall--I'm definitely going to try adding coconut oil! A woman on the hcgdieters group said she and a few other people added it every day, not even counting calories, and she though it helped them lose faster! So it's worth a try!

People are saying I look thinner too Yay! So I feel good about that, but I wish my hunger wouldn't be so strong this time. I still think I need to adjust the dose. Actually, I re-mixed it and froze some of the syringes, only saving out 6 syringes in the fridge. So I'll have to see how it works! Well, it's after midnight again and I need to get to bed! Until next time, Merry

I'm not sure why you stopped after 23 days if you want to lose a lot of weight. I finished my first round and did it for - Ooops 42 days. I had some HCG left and used it up. I lost 38 pounds in the 42 days and have been off for a week and haven't gained an ounce. This is the greatest diet I've ever been on. I want to lose at lease 100 pounds so I have to do another couple of rounds.
