    R1P2VLCD19- sublingual rx, started at 184, down to 168. Still in size 14 but everything is loose. We were suppose to do 23 days. Sunday is our last hcg day. We are thinking about quiting on Friday because we go on vacation Sat. (thats only 2 days early) I want to do what is right. I am wavering here. Hate the idea of 500 cal. on a trip. Seems so much harder than when I am in a routine at home. I really want to just quit for the 1 week of the vacation, during that time do P3 and then start back up Next Saturday when we get back and then complete 40 days.. Right now, this seems like a great plan to me...
    Would it be so bad?

    Dr. S. says it takes a minimum of 23 injections to reset your hypothamus. The taking a break for a trip is allowed but not before 23 injections. Here's the thing, once you stop the hcg you still have to stay on the 500 calories for 72 hours before starting P3 so even if you quit Friday you would still be on the vlcd for your trip. If you wer to start eating with the hcg still in your system you would gain weight or sure.

    I'm sorry for your situation and I sure wouldn't want to take a vacation on a 500 calorie a day diet. Having said that only you can decide if you want to risk gaining weight back and not resetting at your current weight.

    Sorry :~(

    Don't you just hate it when "life' tries to interrupt your diet? For me..........I really have to stay focused to make it work. I can't just 'wing' it.

    if you really need to go off, you'd need to take your last dose of hcg on wed morning, so that you could be on P3 on saturday. you'd be taking a chance by taking a break before the 23 days, but i've known people to do worse. if it were me, i'd actually quit on tues, so that friday would be your first day of P3. be very cautious those first few days, even with P3 foods. i definitely would not do this is you don't plan to get right back on after a week.

    for others- it's a really good idea to look at your schedule for parties, trips, etc., and try to plan your rounds well in advance so you can work around these dates.

    I know, it seems like I should have seen this coming...a trip, and planned accordingly. I was a customer who had to wait a long time for the hcg. When it came in we started right away but too late to be done before our trip. I had thought that we (hubby and I) would just have to continue on the trip. We are going to Texas....ugh....what glorious food!!!! As the date to leave draws near (this Sat.) I am just wondering if it would hurt that much to end it tomorrow (day 21) and then do 72 hours on VLC. However, when I woke up this morning and saw my weight had droped down another lb...wow! I love this diet. Thank you for answering my silly questions. I do appreciate it. You gals are awesome!!!!
