Hi,

I have been injecting 100 i.U. (whatever that means but that's what is says on the box) for 10 days now and have been on VLCD for 7 days and I feel like I am STARVING! My enegry levels are so low that things that I do every day like walk up the 4 floors to my flat or bike to work are incredibly hard for me.

So far, I have lost 10.6 pounds, but a lot of that I lost during the first load days, I think it was water weight from my period that ended the day I started using the injections. From the beginning I never had the Melbas or grissini, and I have also cut out fruit, but I have replaced it with more protein. Yesterday I cheated for the first time at a business lunch where I could not refuse to eat the very fancy food our host was catering, but funny enough I lost 1 pound this morning. It was so good to have energy again, though!

From the forum I gather that my dosage might be wrong, but I am doing this supervised and it never seemed like another dosage was an option. I am now worried I am going to gain everything back afterwards - what should I do? I am only going to see my dietitian in a week, by then I will be half way through.

Thanks for your answers,
Romana

You should not be hungry and should not be weak. And when you called your clinic, they should have told you that and what to do. But don't worry, one of the vets will guide you through.
