Hi.

I am on my last day today of the hcg injections. I completed a 23day round and ended up extending it 10 more days. So today is my 33rd day and my last injection. As far as I know, for the next 3 days I stay on my VLCD of 500cals. Even though I did 33days I am only down 16lbs. I did not reach my goal weight but I am still very pleased with what weight I have managed to lose. If I could lose another 15lbs I would reach my goal weight and be soooo happy! So I am considering starting another round, but it will be the homeopathic drops this time, because I can't afford 23 more injections.
--Now, for my question: How long after these 3 final VLCD days should I stay on P3, before I start a new round with the drops? Can I just consider my P3 an interruption and then jump back on the hcg train? Or would it be okay for me to just go straight to the drops without even entering P3?

any thoughts are much appreciated! I've gotta drop these last 15lbs!
Im 21 yrs old, and wiegh 140 right now. 125 is what I weighed all through highschool and I want it back soo bad. I am an ex-college athlete and my body is also dyyyying for some exercise! I have to be honest, I have been very discouraged with only getting down from 155 to 140 and have been considering just stopping the hcg diet all together after the last 3VLCD days and altering my P3 to suit my work out needs. I miss losing weight with high exercise and protein shakes!! But I am looking for motivation and a good reason to stay on this hcg and hopefully figure out how to get these last 15lbs off.

Thanks everyone for reading.
