Lets try this again...
 

I'm back for another attempt at hgc...last time I had to quit from serious heart palpitations. Since then I discovered that I've been suffering from severe sleep apnea and I think that was causing a large part of my issues. This time around I'm doing rxHGC injections instead of hhgc drops and I'll be closely listening to my body for problems. wish me luck, I've got more weight than ever to lose...I can't believe how much weight I've put on.

Good for you for giving it another try! I have a lot to lose as well.
This forum is really a great incentive to stick with it. We're all
in this together.

Much good luck to you!

Good luck!

Thanks for the support. I'm down 6 in 10 days, I'm not exactly following protocol but I feel great & losing weight and that is what is important.

Once upon a time, I had lost 98 lbs "the old fashioned way". It took 25 months of dieting, eating 900-1200 calories a day on a mostly vegan diet. I lost 0-6 lbs a month this way. I just found my old spreadsheet that I used to track daily weigh-ins. Somewhere I have a file with every meal I ate in it for several months.

It's a personal sort of hell to find myself back where I was 9 years ago. I never imagined that I would put all that weight on again...I just sit and wonder "what the hell happened?". Sometimes I wonder if I have cushings syndrome (show some signs), or a metabolic disorder...but reality is probably that I just like food and don't exercise regularly.

If there's a silver lining in all of this, it's the miracle of HGC...I've done in 10 days what it took 30 to do before (if I was lucky), and I'm not really eating that much less from my original diet plan. as I mentioned I'm not following protocol exactly...averaging 700-900 calories of protocol foods. And my hunger is very low, except when approaching meal times, which I think is normal.

pardon my rambling...just helps to share my thoughts with someone.

Redrocks, I know just how you feel. I'm in and have been in the exact same boat several times. Every time I start my weight loss journey, I say never again and then end up doing it all over again. Food is an addiction for me and I am so sick of the control it has over my life! I did hcg about a year a go, was very sucessful and then went back to my old habits and gained most (not all) back. One thing it did do for me though is through making my own meals, it started me to think of food a little differently and get used to cooking more healthy. It has been and is definitely a journey for me and I do believe that I am making progress evolving into someone who will be able to make better choices in the future and hopefully, won't let my eating get so out of hand. Understanding that I will still make mistakes, but being able to correct those mistakes instead of continuing down the same old destructive path. Oh how I long to be "normal" when it comes to my relationship with food and eating! I've always felt that if I could just get control of this part of my life that it would make the other parts of my life so much better.
