Hi, I am on my first round on day 11 of the vlcd and take sublingual. I have read p&i and treudeu's book (p&1 multiple times) and have spent a long time researching the protocol. I understand that for the 1st week you may have some hunger issues but that it should go away. I'm on day 11 and I am just still hungry all of the time. I did the loading and have been following the protocol to the T. I started out at 125 IU, but have in the past few days went up to 175 than today 200 thinking it may have been the dosage. Nothing is working and I am really hungry, I want to lose the weight and I am being strong so far but they say you aren't supposed to be hungry all the time. PLEASE HELP!! (11 pounds lost so far....)Thankful People: Squirrilan, InSearchOfFitness

erinmk: Are you drinking enough? You sometimes think your hungry when you body is telling you it needs more water. Drink at least half your weight in water each day, and space out your food. Try to eat something every 4 hours to keep blood sugar regulated.Thankful People: triunf

If changing the dose isn't working at all, it makes me think it could be the hCG itself.
Another thing would be the kind of hunger you are experiencing. Some people are lucky. They report that they feel euphoric, with no hunger, and they ask if it's absolutely necessary to eat the whole 500 calories. For me, it's normal to feel empty and unsatisfied most of the time. I think about food quite a bit, but it doesn't stop me from getting things done during the day.
The type of hunger I have a hard time dealing with is where I have a grumbling stomach, a headache, and physical pain that won't allow me to sleep or concentrate on anything else besides eating. Changing my dose has generally fixed this problem. I do I/M injections, and this round I went right to 200iu doses because I knew it would be a waste of time to try something less.Thankful People: triunf -
erinmk--I did a 40 day protocol sublingual through a doctor and was starving all the time, despite drinking lots of water and even changing out the hcg thinking it might have been damaged in some way. I also tried spreading out my 500 calories so I didn't go 4 hours without food. I was exhausted on this diet and could barely think straight. I took a dr prescribed supplement, too. And I only list 1/2 lb a day, despite sticking to the protocol (and being 45 lbs overweight before I started).
However, my best friend lost more weight (despite only being 35 lbs overweight), was never hungry and was full of energy from day 1. I'm guessing hcg has different effects on different people.Thankful People: triunf -

Erin, where are you injecting? And how long did you stay at each dose level? Let's figure it out. You should not be hungry on this protocol. If you can't fix it, you need to stop it because you're losing normal fat and your hypothalamus isn't resting.

I'm on the same situation, on my R2 I was doing the best but was impossible I was really crazy about the food. I increase to 18 drops but this don't work, on my first Round I did great, I lost 30 pounds, but in my Second Round everything was bad...
I still hungry all days, and finally I decided stop because I want to think about what I can do, and when is the best time, I stop on February 17, I was about 32 days taking the drops, and about 10 doing all bad!!! I was eating a lot, this is the true, Now I don't know what I can do...I'm a litter sad...
Erin is taking the drops -
I have never done sublingual but I think you are suppsed to be doing it more than once a day and I think double the dose of subq injections. I don't know the exact amount but sublingual requires more than injections so that's why you're hungry.
-
Oh yes, twice a day,
morning and before dinner.

I really like sublingual -
triunf- I don't know what it is about round 2 but I had a hard time on that round and have heard others say the same. Just do your full P3 and P4 and give your body a break.
One thing I think we do is try to go the 40days when it's just too much for us. In Dr. S day he had people on a basic vacation during the protocol. I don't know about your life but I work outside of the home full time and have a family, there is very little down time. Maybe for those of us with hectic, stressful schedule 40 days is just too much.
This is why I'm so glad someone tried the break mentioned in the protocol. It's a perfect solution. I'm gonna try it and see how it works. -
there are quite a few variables that go into hunger pains... for FREE Consultations email info@pounds-and-inches.com for personal answers...
variables could be:
didn't gorge correctly
how much water are you drinking?
are you skipping breakfast?
are you doing HCG injections or HCG drops?
what dosage are you taking?
Tips:
gorging should make you want to throw up after 2 days of eating correctly...
drink plenty of water...its the only way to rid your body of the toxins...
you should always skip breakfast and start to eat around 12 noon...
hcg injections are always the best way to get real hcg into the system...however if you are doing HCG drops you should find some without alcohol (alcohol turns into sugar once inside the body which cause major hunger pains ** www.thinkhcgdrops.com **)
we've always recommended 200 IU's of HCG daily...most like kevin trudeau recommend 125 IU's...
