Dan email to me, may help answer some questions for others. Here our Q & A
Q.
Colin,
I, like you, was an athlete my whole life. For the last 10 years mostly in the field of MMA. About 4 years ago I had to have double knee surgery and still require more knee surgeries. These next surgeries being complete knee replacements. I have continuously been going up and up in weight and went from 210lbs at 12% BF to my personal heaviest 280lbs at 25%.
Due to the knee problems from years of MMA and weight lifting I am no longer able to do the cardio that I once used as my "main weight maintenance tool". So that brings me to where I am now. I stumbled across your youtube HCG protocol video completely by accident. But it motivated me to do extensive research on the subject of the protocol diet. I am very familiar with nutrition and dieting but have never really put much thought to this program.
When I initially heard of the diet. I have to admit it was in a negative light. It had more to do with "the weight loss cure" author Kevin being arrested for fraud. So immediately it put me on the defensive about diet.
Long story short, after seeing your success and others success and reading "pounds and inches" I have ordered the "weight loss cure".
I actually started my HCG diet protocol on sat. I loaded for 2 days, probably not as much as I should have. I started the actual diet on mon and was relatively hungry throughout the day on the VCLD. I do not know if this is normal, today (tues) I had a minor headache but do not feel as hungry.I am using 250 i.u daily and taking it sub Q to the abdomen.I guess the purpose of my long email is to get any additional information you feel like sharing.
I am very dedicated and even weigh out my food daily just as I am supposed to do. I want to make sure I do everything perfect to maximize the benefits of the protocol. So any advice or protocol secrets you are willing to share would be very helpful and much appreciated.
Thank you,
Dan
A.Hey Dan , thank you for your email. I am impressed with your dedication, and am jealous of you MMA background, I have been wanting to learn MMA fighting for years now. With that said, you seem to be on the right tract, I am curious how much weight you lost after the first day on the actual diet.
That will help me determine if you are injecting enough HCG. If you are carrying allot of fat around the mid section, then I would use the shoulder or thigh are for the injection sites to make sure all the hcg is entering your system. drinking allot water is very important to try and hit the gallon a day if you can.
also, if you have a gym membership, low impact treadmill walk at 15% incline if your knee can handle that, and 3 to 3.2 mph should help you burn about 500 calories. moderate exercise will help you drop the weight faster, if your energy levels are OK. The hunger should pass, however, if you really are struggling, you can chose to have an extra piece of protein at night. Please keep me posted, and I am only a phone call away if you need to chat or need moral support. I would very much love to see you reach your weightless goals.
All the best,
Colin
