I'm very excited to get started. I'm so happy to have found a good resource of info and support. I have tried everything ...like most everyone here. My health has really started to take a hit with all of this weight.  I'm ready to gain control and get rid of this weight! I can do this! One day at a time, making my needs a priority.

Hello Everyone,

I am on my second round, VLCD 17, and yesturday I did my little happy dance when I broke the 40lb loss mark.  I am still mesmerized by this diet, and how well it works.  I am still learning how to cook excellent meals with so little.  I'm thankful that both my husband and I are good cooks, as this does make it better.

This week we began to eat cucumbers out of our garden, and with that, I had to figure out how to make my favorite SunDried Tomato dressing.  When I buy it in the store, I always get the one that you can see the oil at the top, and when I get home, I carefully squeeze that out.  I have always mainly used it without the oil, so my homemade, is an excellent switch.

Hi peeps! I know this community will do more than it looks like it is doing. Im just not sure how to get it all up and going properly.. I will be working harder on it. In the mean time if you want to chat in the forum, that might be easier for all us..lol

Hi Everyone ^_^

I hope I can figure out this blog thing.  I am so anxious to chat and join conversations about hcg!  I too was inspired by April's vlogs on Youtube.  My doctor actually suggested hcg to me, which got me feverishly searching the internet for all the info I could find, when I came across hcgloosers and April.  I started my Round 1 on Sat June 12th.  I am so happy to report that after only 13 days on VLCD I am down 14 lbs , and even more impressive, 19 inches!!  Can't wait to share more recipe ideas and tips from my hcg'ers :-)

Talk to you all soon,

Karen in KC

I have spent  years studing Herbs, and Natural ways to heal our ills.  Through my studies the one factor that makes people ill is metals that get clogged in our bodies, which cause common ailments as FibroMalgia, and Arthritis, begin sluggish digestion, kidney and liver ailments. 

I have a friend who has spent years trying to rid her body of these metals, and had to go to the extreme just to get tested for it.  She learned her body was filled with Mercury , Copper and Silver.  In order to help herself, she seeked natural ways to cleans her body.  I spoke with her a few weeks ago, and even though she has cleaned her body repeatedly, due to our environment and our city being a mining one, we have more metals in our body by just existing.  

My concern after researching Collated silver, is does this silver differ from the silver found in our environment, added more metal to our body as it appears the metals are not flushed unless one literally does a cleanse. 

First Round,

I ended my first round with loosing 27 lbs.  To some this may not seem so much, however, for me, having trouble loosing weight all my life due to some health issues, this was a great start. 

My husband and I used the injection method, and he was a great partner, who kept me strong, along with some very interesting cooking by both, we learned our usual healthy eating was still not as healthy as when we used the Hcg.  I believe in my next round I'm going to begin writing a cookbook to help others with ideas, and will look for ideas we can try.

This makes 2 servings

• 2 TBS Organic cold pressed Coconut Oil
• 2 TBS Cocoa
• 2 or 3 packets Truvia, Splenda or Stevia (Splenda works and tastes best)
• 1 TBS Raspberry flavor sugar free coffee syrup

In a flat bottom bowl or butter bowl lid or even foam plate heat coconut oil for about 35 seconds in microwave. stir in remaining ingredients. place in freezer for 15 to 20 minutes. Take out and break into 2 servings and enjoy.

Well.. I have been holding out on sharing this... because I'm so embarrassed!

I was stuck on a binge and I just couldn't stop myself, so I went back on hcg.

I had lost 11 pounds bringing me down to 169 AGAIN. Once I hit 169 I was stuck. for 2 in a half weeks when I would get up and read the scale it was like ground hog day! AHHHHHHHH!
