Just make sure you don't try to go too low on your calories without the HCG. You could continue on HCG and just try going rogue and adding in enough healthy carbs like fruits and maybe whole grain breads to keep you out of ketosis. Since you have to quit it's worth trying it another way before you do. I just started a general low cal yesterday with HCG to see how it will work. No ketosis, no super low cal, just a range that worked previously for me 700-1100. Too soon to tell how well it will work long term but first day went well.

This was going to be my suggestion too. I know what you mean, ketosis breath is really intense for me. My husband says he doesn't even notice if he has it or not. Personally my mouth tastes like I just drank something super sweet. I feel like I need to brush my teeth all the time.

I think I would attempt it with the grains or even starchier veggie choices. I honestly believe the reason HCG works is the low calorie intake along with the HCG allowing you to not feel like you are starving. You could probably continue losing (maybe not as quickly) even with a few more carbs.

Whatever you do, once you decide to quit the HCG, I would definitely do P3 and possibly P4 to stabilize.

Good luck! Let us know how it works.
