Snack - orange

Dinner - 100g eye round steak and 100g cucumber

			<description>I have read a lot of posts of people who have potassium deficiency on this diet.  I think I have it as well.  I'm not sure what to take for it.  I did read to reduce salt intake.  Is Morton's salt substitute OK?  I was told by a doctor that people who can't have salt can use that as it is basically potassium.  They also said not to cook with it becasue it doesn't taste great cooked but to add after heating food and it tastes just like salt.



Does anyone know about the salt substitute?

I only have ten days of injections to go and really wanted to eliminate at least 7 more pounds on this round - heck, I'd be happy with 5. What to do? I tried an apple day, which was a total disaster.

How long did it take you to reach your goal?

			<dc:creator>bebzphernz</dc:creator>
			<description>I feel stupid  .  For some reason I always thought that on the 2 load days before starting Phase 2 VLCD you do NOT inject HCG .  This is what I have been doing for the last 3 rounds I've done  .  From reading a couple of threads recently it seems like I'm supposed to do the 2 load days AND start the HCG injections on those load days, too  ?

I also read someone was using evening primrose or black current oil.  These are oils - won't they be absorbed and cut weight loss.  I use lots of essential oils but have completely stopped while on diet.  Can I use them?</description>

Q: Is soda really bad for your kidneys?



A: Yes. Drinking 16 ounces or more daily (whether diet or regular) doubles your risk of chronic kidney disease, according to an NIH study of more than 900 people. The researchers already knew that consuming any type of soft drink—the average American adult guzzles 59 gallons' worth per year—is associated with several risk factors for kidney disease (hypertension, diabetes,  ...</description>

<br />

<br />
Im just wondering why most of you inject your HCG subcutaneously when it says in the simeons protocol to inject deep intramucscularly (IM)?  It says to avoid injecting into the fat.. and make sure it is in the muscle.   So which is correct??  
<br />

<br />
thanks in advance.]]></description>

			<description>Hi.. im new here.. havent received my HCG yet and very impatiently waiting.. and waiting... and waiting...

What would happen if a person followed a diet such as Cambridge diet (or optifast) where 3 servings per day of these shakes equals about 420 calories and 100% of your daily nutritional needs.  It is a great diet that when followed  ...</description>

<br />
1: Can you do a 30 day round or does it have to be the full 42?

<br />
2: And, if you do go over the 21 days does your phase 3 need to be longer or still 3 weeks?

			<description>I was emailed a little Q&amp;A from author and &quot;Biggest Loser&quot; trainer Jillian Michaels:



Q: Are there really foods that burn fat? If so, what are they?



A: Not really, but there are foods that contain fewer calories than the body uses to digest them. Therefore, when you eat these foods (cruciferous veggies, leafy greens, and so forth), you’re helping create a calorie deficit.



That said, there are also certain foods that will crank up your metabolism by releasing the right hormones.  ...</description>

			<description>I'm finding that I get pretty hungry on the days I work out. I don't want to stop working out because it's a habit I don't want to break! I'm thinking about adding a whey protien shake on my workout days. It would be an extra 100 calories but about 12 grams of protein. Also, I'm sure I burn 100 calories working out. Has anyone done this and had good losses still?</description>

			<description>Ok I went to the herbal store today to look for Braggs aminos.  They don't sell them because there was no interest.  So they recommended Brewers Yeast instead.  He says that it works as a flavoring, it has amino acids.  The owner had actually used Braggs and switched from Braggs to Brewers Yeast he claims.  The carbs aren't as good but it is a powder he says a little goes a long way.  I am not going to try it today but does anyone know anything about it in terms of this protocol?</description>

			<title>frozen chicken weight</title>
			<link>http://www.hcgsupportgroup.com/food-medications-f62/frozen-chicken-weight-t4908.htm</link>
			<dc:creator>gettinskinny</dc:creator>
			<description>Hi,



I have been weighing my chicken after it is cooked because I cook it from frozen--so the opportunity to &quot;raw weigh&quot; it is not there.  My clinic told me that 100 g of raw = about 80 g of cooked.  That has worked fine for me.  

Question to be answered is...

I was noticing on my bag of frozen chicken that 112 g = 100 calories.  Does anyone know if that is a FROZEN weight or a RAW weight? Just wondering about my calorie intake and accuracy.



Thanks :) </description>
