    hey everyone i was just hoping that yall could help me with your expert advice...so ive been on p2 for 23 days now and ive only lost a little over 9 lbs,(thats not counting the weight i lost from my loading days, with that its about 12 lbs) i started at 149, then after loading 151.8, and now im only at 139.6. my goal is about 120 or less. please help, im not cheating at all, so i dont understand why its the weight loss is comin off soooo verrrry slow...right now im only loosing about 2 lbs a week, if that...im not having enough bms(and im trying to get something to help with that, dont really like the smooth move tea, but ive heard magnesium citrate is good), so i know that could be part of it and im kinda near my tom so that could be part of it too. but i just wanted to know if there was something else i could be doing to speed this up...(and i am walking everyday, except yesterday, was sick..)..any advice will be greatly appreciated. thanks

    What method are you using and what is your dose? Have you been hungry?

    It is very important to deal with constipation. Even if you don't like the smooth move tea it will help greatly. The calm magnesium is something I use every day during P2. You can also use mega doses of vitamin C.

    TOM will for sure mess things up.

    I do want to say that your loss of 12lbs is really only been in 20 days which really isn't bad. We are all just so different and will lose differently. My loses tend to average at around .7 per day by the end of a round. Right now your loses are at .6.

    How long of a round are you planning on doing?

    Here's a link to a site for the Calm magnesium so you know what it is and what it looks like. http://www.calmnatural.com/product/18340500001
    I get mine at The Vitamin Shoppe but I think most health food stores carry it. It's a powder that you mix with a hot beverage. Last time I got the lemon flavored, it tastes better than the plain especially in hot tea.

    Your comments bring up another question. Is your hcg premixed by someone or are you mixing it yourself? For some reason doctors want to mix for the whole round but many have found that after about 15 days or so it begins to lose it's potency. In my first round I began to notice a bit of hunger at about day 23. I was only doing a short round so it didn't matter but now I mix every 10 days. Actually every 5 since my son is on it with me now.

    The closer to goal, the slower your losses.

    I have a friend who needds to lose 20lbs and she is losing 1-2lbs a day. I'm beginning to wonder if it's closer to goal or how many rounds we've done that's the real issue.

    I think it's how many rounds we've done and how much time off we've taken.

    I really believe that taking the proper time between rounds is vital for many reasons.

    I do too! I should have done longer than 7 weeks this time, I think. That's why I'll wait 3-4 mos before trying to lose another 15 or so.
