HCG: VLCD 1

Today started with my HCG dose at 175iu. I've been feeling hungry all day and tomorrow I plan to up my dosage to 200 iu. I have been trying to create a schedule for eating but the hunger has been difficult in deciding when I should have my meals. I had my 2L of water trying to help with the hunger but it seemed like it made things worse.

I feel somewhat deprived but I think the issue is not know what equal a serving of vegetables. I really need to research a HCG protocol serving size or I might not be able to make it.

I plan to weigh in after I visit the bathroom in the am but before I brush my teeth or drink anything.. I want to weigh in as dry as possible. I say that b/c that's how I weighed in this morning. I got on the scale again before getting dressed but after I brushed my teeth. I noticed I weigh more after brushing. Now I know why the say don't weigh yourself throughout the day. Your weight rises as you consume liquids during the day.

The protocla states that all load weight should be lost with in the first 48 hours of VLCD. Lets hope this is true!

My starting weight after loading is 187.8

My menu for today was:

Breakfast: 1/2 Grapefruit
Lunch: Onions, Chicken, & Melba toast
Snack: Golden Delicious Apple
Dinner: Shrimp and Spinach

That is my day in a nutshell.

Thanks for reading my blog and feel free to comment or ask questions.
