Help! Question on protocol.
 
Hi fellow HCGers,

I've been on the program since February 13 and have lost more than 10 pounds and lots of inches (FIVE on my waist alone!). I'm doing a 40 day round and would love to lose 25 pounds. I really only want to do one round.

Here's my question - I've been good about sticking to the no lotions, creams rule (I've been using oil free) and it is wreaking havoc on my skin.y skin is so dry it is flaking and now breaking out. If my skin gets too dry, I break out. I would live to go back to my products but don't want to impact my losses. Anyone have any experience with this or words of advice? THANK YOU!!

Have you tried using J&J baby oil, right in the shower? I cut the water off, and then smooth it all over me (except for my feet). Then I dry off with my towel. I have put a little more on places like my legs and elbows, but my trunk is ok. For my feet, I rub vaseline all over them and then put on old fuzzy socks (and I have been wearing the same pair for about 10 days now because I figure the petroleum jelly will be hard to get out when I wash them so I am just going to toss them!).

As for my face, I used my facial products. I spent a lot of money on my facecare regime, and I hoped that my face was so small and that the amount of actual oil in the products was so little that it would have a negligible effect. I didn't want to stop a month's use of atralin, just to have to start over again.

I lost 19.6 in 26 VLCD (Lord I can't remember unless I look in my signature), so I am still pleased. I had a VERY slow week 3, but I can't attribute that to my skincare, considering my losses the other weeks.

Good luck!

Thanks so much for your reply! I'm going to try the baby oil and start using my facial products again. My sister's getting married in April and I can't afford to look like a flaky, pimply mess! http://hcgdietinfo.com/hcgdietforums...lies/smile.png

Well THAT didn't work! I decided to use my regular facial products yesterday. UP .4 today! http://hcgdietinfo.com/hcgdietforums...lies/frown.png Back to dry skin I guess ...

What about Vaseline total moisture for your body and something like Neutrogena for your face? There are many oil free products out there. Granted they are less than natural, but I figure I can do that for 40 days.

Get some good oil free skin care products. Browse the store and see what sounds good. http://hcgdietinfo.com/hcgdietforums...lies/smile.png
