It's a good idea to split your food up during the day to keep your blood sugar level. I eat 1/2 apple about 10am then 1 meat for lunch sometimes with the vegetable and sometimes I eat the vegetable an hour or so later, I eat the other half apple in the afternoon then my other meat and veggie at dinner, you can have your other fruit a couple hours after dinner.

It would be helpful for you to tell us what your method of hcg is and how much hcg your using per day so we can see if there's a dosage issue.

You may also be going through sugar withdrawals. Are you taking potassium and magnesium? Many people who experieince weakness or tiredness do well with those two supplemants

vit c should be fine, check the labels and make sure it is pure c and doesnt have other ingredients, (like sugars) especially if they are chewables - we find that all the time in multi-vits.

The brands shouldnt matter if they are pure. I just use the dose recommended and take more some days if my body feels like it needs it. My daughter and I buy them seperate, so we can take more of one if need be.

Siorry if that wasnt specific enough. You might do a search on those words in the forum and see if others have specific numbers.

truvia and stevia are not the same. some people stall or gain on truvia..truvia has Erythritol which is a sugar alcohol,

pure stevia, doesnt have sugar alcohols.
