I remember once I asked the nurse at my HCG doctor once why they didn't follow Dr. S's protocol and only administer his suggested dose and complete all phases. At my doctor's office they bump your dose higher and higher each time you reach immunity and do the weight loss and do P2 NONSTOP until you lose the weight or get sick of it. The nurse said it was because the doctor thought Dr. S's protocol was hard enough as it was and adding the phases or sticking with the recommended dosage amounts is too difficult and cumbersome. Eventually you can't get around it. Your body will take the toll, you will gain it back, you will get frustrated and you will get sick.
My background in medicine is limited only to veterinary medicine. I think sometimes it's better than "people" medicine. Bottom line is being over weight is NOT HEALTHY. Diabetes is a terminal illness. As my diabetic father says, "At least I know how I'm going to die... I'm going to die sweet." Exercise and a healthy balanced diet are not the way to weight loss for some. So for those of us who can't just exercise and stop eating bad food there is stuff like HCG. The risk has to be a calculated one though. The side effects of a low calorie diet and hormone intake can not out weigh the side effects of obesity. I think following the protocol helps keep that balance.
Remember to forgive ya'llselves for any mistakes or setbacks ya'll make while on the diet. Reminder yourself why we are doing this... to be healthy. I know we all get impatient and love to see the weight come off fast. I know I'm the most impatient person in the world. But I have to remind myself why I started this... to be healthy. So I have a bit more than a week left on P3 and then my poor liver can have a well deserved break and get healthy.
Thats the absolute besdt way to look at it Meli!
ReplyDeleteYou said it right! My blood pressure has gone down and I just feel so much younger on HCG! It's the best. Your words are so encouraging! Hang in there!
