Higher calorie intake during maintenance
 

This will be my first time... after doing a lot of research I understand that 500 cals a day is protocol and highly recommended for the best results.. but what if I dont need to lose 1lb a day... what if i want to take a slower route. Can i up my calorie intake to 800-900 a day and give myself a lower HCG dosage?

If so... any idea what that dosage should be?

Thanks in advance!

Do not lower your HCG dose. But u can up your calories a little. I would still stick to protocol foods.
