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
