Here is one persons daily account of how being on the hCG diet went for them. This is Days 1-17. To see how the rest of this diet goes, follow up to read more of "the hCG Diet and me".
Day 1 & 2
The 1st injection is a little scary, especially if you have never injected yourself before. It doesn’t hurt at all; just the thought of it frightened me. I took and deep breath and did it. Today you begin the fat loading part of your diet and you think "all right, I can eat anything I want." That is true, but halfway thru day 2, you are tired of the junk.
Day 3 & 4
Today is my 3rd injection and it is a piece of cake. You start the 500 calorie diet and it isn’t bad. The injections help you not to be hungry. Weight gain - 2 pounds, from fat loading on day 1 & 2
Day 5
Okay, so day 5 is a little bit harder. You are very tired and your leg muscles ache, similar to doing squats for days. Based on my experience, I will tell you to rest as much as you can. It doesn’t last long and it will be better by day 6. 4 pound weight loss.
Day 6 & 7
You are still a little tired but the leg cramps are gone. 4 pound weight loss.
Day 8 – 11
Are great days, still not hungry thanks to the injections, you understand the caloric intake & feel satisfied all day. 3 pound weight loss. Met with Dr Grobe, total weight loss to date 11 pounds.
Day 12
You are past the half way mark, Yippie! My only concern on this day was I would like to have another choice of food to eat. It is more of a mental day. 1/2 pound weight loss.
Day 13 & 14
To tell the truth, these days were harder. I began swimming laps, I haven’t done any exercise before day 13, wasn’t feeling strong enough. After swimming, I noticed I was hungry all day. No matter what I did, if I drank more water, ate slower, took a nap, I was still hungry. The support of my husband & family was helpful in keeping me going these days. No weight loss or gain.
Day 15
Strange but true, I’m back to normal. No cravings, no hungry pains just enjoying the day. Mental clarity is back. 1/2 pound weight loss.
Day 16
Nothing much has changed, not hungry, just enjoying the day. No weight loss or gain.
Day 17
Still feeling great, not hungry and have a lot of energy. Weight loss – 1 pound.
