Weight Loss Slowdown first week, anyone else?

by Looking4Hcg, Jun 14, 2007 12:00AM
Has anyone else on the hcg/Simeon diet experienced something like this? The first two days on the diet I lost 1.25 & 1.75 lbs. The 3rd & 4th day only lost .25 lb each day.  
  
I'm a little mentally down this morning, but not too far because hcg has done something else for me.  It flushed out most of the adema around my knees, ankles & elbows. I suspect that was the 1.25 & 1.75 weight loss the first two days.  After having swollen joints for over 6 months during my last episode of Rheumatoid Arthritis, I welcome the physical improvements. Also my knees are no longer warm to the touch, so I suspect Arthritis has quit attacking my body, causing the swelling.
  
I am curious about others with a similar experience with low weight loss at the beginning. Did your weight gain pick up after a while, or did you stay at the low weight loss?
      
I am doing the Simeon weight loss plan (125ui HCG and 500 Cal diet), and following it 'almost' exactly.  I am still using a small amount of Olay on my face because my skin is so dry and I live in Texas.
