    I know this is a completely new question, but does anybody know if you can use to much cinnamon? I love the stuff and I know its great for blood sugar and other things, but its also sweet and I don't want anything else to slow my losses, mine are king of slow. thanks Trace

    trace- what do you mean by kind of slow? averaging less than .5 per day over the length of the protocol? if so, tell us what you're doing and maybe we can see if something is off.

    Ok heres my losses first VLCD I weighed 135.8 [ I'm a very small boned person so this is about 30lbs over wt for me] d2 134 d3 131'8 d4 131.4 d5129.8 d6 129.2 d7128.4 d8127.8 d9127 d10 26.6 d11 26.2 Now I know the're not awful but what concerns is I've been reading that most people do best in the begianing and then slow to this rate. Any advice? Thanks Trace

    those losses are excellent- well above average, especially considering your starting weight. you've lost 9.6# after 10 diet days! average over the length of the protocol is .5 to .75, so i'm sure you will land in that range if not above.

    Thanks so mcuh, I needed to hear that, It's just so easy to get cought up in reading about losses of 1 to 2 lbs everyday in the begianing. I just need to relax, I was just so worried this diet wouldn't work for me llike everybody else. I have deffinately dieted to much my whole life and so want it to work so bad this time , the LAST TIME. THANKS SO SO MUCH FOR THE ENCOURAGEMENT!!!!!! trace

    A friend of mine was saying he read somewhere that HCG cause issues with gout sufferers. I do not remember reading that anywhere.

    Does anyone know of this happening?

    According to Pounds and Inches, it can in the first day or two but then they improve;

    Gout
    An identical behavior is found in the blood uric acid level of patients suffering from gout. Predictably such patients get an acute and often severe attack after the first few days of HCG treatment but then remain entirely free of pain, in spite of the fact that their blood uric acid often shows a marked increase which may persist for several months after treatment. Those patients who have regained their normal weight remain free of symptoms regardless of what they eat, while those that require a second course of treatment get another attack of gout as soon as the second course is initiated. We do not yet know what dioncephalic mechanisms are involved in gout; possibly emotional factors play a role, and it is worth remembering that the disease does not occur in women of childbearing age. We now give 2 tablets daily of ZYLORIC to all patients who give a history of gout and have a high blood uric acid level. In this way we can completely avoid attacks during treatment.
