wow lots of dead air here - wishing people well

Hey, all! A quick update on me-- I am off of the round now. This is unplanned but I was having trouble getting my brand of homepathic hcg and a friend had some left over so I started using them this week. I was immediately hungry and by last night was in total starvation mode---- headache, light headed, nausea, lethargic-- so I decided the hcg was totally out of my system and started phase 3 today. Even more evidence that I was in starvation mode, I woke up to a 1.2lb gain this morning. So...phase 3 for me....unexpected so I had to improvise on food... but it worked out well.

Hi slyspyder - bravo for doing what was right for your body - I had a similar experience this fall, when I started having major muscle and joint pain had to quick march over to P3 - within two days of adding fats a huge majority of that pain was gone - kudos for us for listening... YAY us !
I'm still on my eliminating judgment diet, hehe - working really well and substituting good noticing and appreciations in place of the usual (past) judgments.

If my body still say yes I'll be starting my 4th round Valentines day - I'm toying with not weighing at all during the round - I know how to eat and with my new asking my body what IT wants(and not over-ruling it) it may be an awesome experience - obviously with the food choices and amounts eating - my clothes and mirror will tell the tale not a number.. I'm liking not being ruled or heaping judgment by what a scale would say - I've been on the journey long enough to trust the process - no longer need artificial or external validation... go ME, hehe

I wish you all the very best - post occasionally here or are you on a different thread, so I can find you.

Ah Im back. Trying to get my mind back in the game. Back to P2 for me.

Hi Smiley - hope your head mood is better - do you feel you're just tired of doing this?
You don't have far to go, but listen to your body and where it feels good, not an arbitrary number.

Luvvies

Good morning! I need to update my ticker-boo hoo hoo. Naw Ill just leave it. Im not that close to goal anymore. In fact I may adjust my goal more. My girlfriends & I are planning a mini-girlfriend weekend the end of the month so Ill be doing a short round then hop back on after we get back with that.
Im on the losing train

have a great day!

lol Smiley - bring that caboose up behind you - Enjoy your life and girlfriends, your weight will be where it will be.

I'll be starting my R4 around Valentines Day - I'm not going to weigh myself this round - my measurements are stable now in my weighing hiatus. measure rarely - I love my body - on a scale and judgment diet. By this time - I know what and how much of the foods to eat on my round and I know the protocol works so will just do it and weigh at the end of the round and live my life with as little significance and attention to diet drama or head trips during the time I'm taking the drops. I had just opened a new bottle of hhcg when I stopped last round, so I will go as long as the drops last - somewhat over 30 days then stop.
The last two rounds my body objected to being on the drops, or fat restriction maybe, for much over 30days then would run into pain or other problems
I will be using coconut oil or MCT this round. We'll see how many calories I do I think I usually am midway between the 500 and 800 cal protocols.

Ahhh JOY, hehe ~ A new adventure!

luvvies, Smiley have a great day

I dont think I could do P2 & not weigh lol....at least weekly. Its amazing that you have the willpower to not weigh at all. I agree with you though after rounds you know what works for you and all of that.
Well AFM I started for a bit but then TOM didnt show up so I last dosed on Friday. Im not clear on when I can take a pregnancy test and get accurate results....thats the frustrating part. So until I know for sure Ill stop and see if TOM shows...usually its on time or even early when on the diet.
I hope everyone is having a great day!

Dear Friends,

I have been absent since my time in the hospital and am hoping to start back on the HCG diet soon. My hospital stay showed that I had an extreme reaction to the thyroid medication I was taking, it had not been controlled since losing a lot of weight last year and in fact was too high for my new weight so I am in the middle of doing blood test whilst having my Doc find the correct dose. Whilst in hospital my blood tests showed high HCG, as I was injecting I thought this was normal. The day I left hospital I also got the results of the exams I had taken to find the cause of my back pain.....it turns out I have adult scoliosis that is advanced and will need lots of therapy to correct it. The Back Clinic advised me not to get pregnant as this therapy is intensive and painful and cannot be done if pregnant. I found out I was in fact 5 weeks pregnant after doing the radiography for the back exams and after being in the hospital for the heart palpitations. My husband and I decided to listen to the medical advice and have an early medical abortion which I did this weekend. Today I went to my obgyn to make sure everything had passed through but it has not. I will need to go back for a D&C Wednesday afternoon. I cannot believe everything that has happened in the last 3 weeks and would appreciate some good thoughts sent my way. I really do not want to have to do a D&C and the obgyn has given me some extra pills to take this eve to hopefully expel what is left. I am hugely regretting putting my own health problems in 1st place even though it is never recommended to continue with a pregnancy after having radiography. I know this and I keep telling myself this but I feel like crap. If I had continued with the pregnancy the child could have been born deformed due to the side effects and I would have been on full bed rest due to the back problems but it still does not make me feel any better.

I do not think I will be able to get over this.

MonAmour,
Sending lots of thoughts and prayers your way. I cant imagine the thoughts that are going through your mind. Know that you did what was medically advised and that was not selfish at all. Be positive and I hope that the therapy helps your problems.
