    I completed my first set of shots and lost 35 pounds and have keep the weight off for 4 months. Five days ago i decided to do another set of 23 days because i wanted to lose another 10 pounds. My question is I want to stop because i feel i can lose the 10 pounds on my own. Should i stop and do the 3 days of the diet to get hcg out of my system, and do a maintenance phase. Dont know what to do. Please help.

    The original protocol from Dr. S says to complete a minimum of 23 days.

    If I decide to stop and do three days of the diet do you think I will gain weight back? Thanks so much for your help.

    This is what the good doctor has to say:

    "We never give a treatment lasting less than 26 days, even in patients needing to lose only 5 pounds. It seems that even in the mildest cases of obesity the diencephalon requires about three weeks rest from the maximal exertion to which it has been previously subjected in order to regain fully its normal fat-banking capacity. Clinically this expresses itself, in the fact that, when in these mild cases, treatment is stopped as soon as the weight is normal, which may be achieved in a week, it is much more easily regained than after a full course of 23 injections."

    I would say from what the doctor wrote, that it is very possible that it will be more easily regained. Personally I wouldn't chance it. You worked too hard why gain.

    kiki- you would probably gain back what you lost in those 5 days, but other than that i'm guessing you would be ok. i guess if i were you i'd eat fairly low-calorie for the next 3 days to be sure, and then do the no sugar/no starch for a few days to make sure your weight is stable.

    the other alternative is to keep going until you lose that 10#, and then increase your calories to 800 or 1000 until the end of the 23 days, plus 3, then 3 weeks of P3.

    Kiki,

    I would do the 23 days and then stop. When i was in my R3, I had to stop on Day 16 due to some serious health issues. I gained the 8 lbs. back that I had shed and then started to gain back some of the weight I had lost on R2 as well. I would hate to see this happen to you.

    I would do the 23 days and like Margie said, lose the ten pounds, then go to 800 to 1000 calories for the rest of the time and start your P3. You definitely dont want to risk gaining it back.
