Sublingual HCG

by JamieD6476, Feb 16, 2009 12:37PM
I recently started the HCG protocol through a clinic in Utah.  I spent about a month researching the pros and cons, and talking to various clinics and doctors.  I am excited about the program, and I think that it will be exactally what I need to attain my goals.  The clinic that I am going to is well known in Utah, and they offer both the sublingual and the injections.  I was adamant at first that I needed to use the injections.  But I got sold on the sublingual because of the recent research that concluded that it is just as effective for weight loss as the injections.  I am still a little hesitant because of all the nay-sayers.  But it still makes sense to me.  

My experience is this so far:
Day 1 load:  Started out at 214lbs.  I felt odd all day, kinda sick actually.  I didn't feel like eating, I really had to force myself to 'load.
Day 2 load:  weighed in at 213.8.  I felt better and had more energy.  I was able to eat, but not like I wanted to.  I was really looking forward to the 'load'.
Day 3 load:  weighed in at 213.8.  I felt good and back to normal, except with more energy.  I enjoyed my load day, and ate what I wanted.  But I was really looking forward to my very low calorie days.
Day 4 500 calories:  Weighed in at 213.8.  I was suprised I didn't gain any weight during my 'load' days.  I was pretty hungry throughout the day.  Had a major headache from giving up my Diet Coke.  I wanted to eat, and had major cravings.  The day kinda sucked and made me wonder if I can do it.
Day 5 500 calories:  Weighed in at 211.6.  Awesome!  I feel better!  I really didn't have any hunger pains.  I still have my caffiene headache.  Maybe I should start drinking coffee?!
Day 6 500 calories:  Weighed in at 209.4.  I wish that I can drop the weight like this every day...but I know I will slow down.  I feel better, and I don't have a headache yet!  I wonder if I can drink my 'low-carb slimfast shake' for a meal instead of the meat and veggies?

Has anyone used the sublingual HCG as opposed to the injections?  What are your successes with either, and do you have any tips for me to maximize my wieght loss?

Thanks for your help!
