Day 10: 285 pounds (-16)
Today, at work I was just dying. I had no ability to focus and everyone was telling me I looked tired (after 3 cups of coffee and 25mg of geranium extract). I ended up eating my second 250 calorie meal by 1 pm. Anyways, I went to the gym and had a great workout. When I...

I think I'm believing the HCG talk now. How you felt after five days is how I felt today. I'll post what happened below.

Interesting. It'd be enlightening for me to try this diet at a later date with HCG and compare results and how I felt. Its not gonna happen tho....I wouldn't subject myself to this diet a second time. :)

I've read that too, but I'm just not sure its true about the fat stores. If that were true, why wouldn't it work at higher calories too? I'd like to see a sampling of people on 500 calorie diets with and without HCG and see if there was a significant difference.

Yeah. My initial thinking was that since I hurt my back a few weeks ago, I wouldn't have to play any volleyball while on the diet, but the back was feeling good and the team was short, so I played.
And I agree with you, the HCG diet has flaws. I'm thinking when I get back from my Jamaica...
Not too much Adams! How you been?
What your friend did is what I'm looking to do. I want to break my crappy eating and especially drinking habits and get back into a healthy lifestyle. I'm not someone who has to try hard to gain mass so incidental muscle loss doesn't bother me.

Day 9:
I cheated. It was 2 hours before I was playing volleyball and I felt like ass so I ate a banana. I figure 560 calories one day won't kill anyone. I played decent considering. I felt pretty normal game one, but games 2 and 3 I was hurting.
Two things I've really been feeling are an...
Taman,
I've enjoyed reading your log. Its very well kept and detailed. You should be proud of your dramatic progress. I'm going to enjoy following along. Good luck and keep it up!

Its all good Beast!
They're right tho, nutrition is 85%, training is 10%, and supps are just fun (unless you're talking AASs).

Also, forgot to mention the supps I'm on:
- geranium extract@ 25 mgs
- bcaas@ ~ 20-25 grams taken throughout the day
- alcar@ 3-4 grams ed
- creatine mono@ 10 grams ed
- caffeine in coffee throughout day

Weighed 285 at the gym today, so I gained back 2 pounds. Felt great working out. Did a heavy full body workout. I think the creatine helped and also I think my body its getting used to ultra low calories. Hunger has disappeared for the most part as well.
At this point I'm definitely...
Day 6:
Took the wife out to an italian restaurant in Little Italy for her birthday. I had already agreed to eat and drink normally that night so she wouldn't feel awkward.
Let me just say NORMALLY I would've ate all my food then gone after her food. Last night I ate about half of my gnocchi...
Looks like the weight is still melting off. Weighed in at 283.6, putting me down about 17 pounds in five days. I'm sure at least half is lost water weight, but my face and gut look noticeably thinner.
I tried lifting today .....it was horrible.....I felt weak and had no stamina. I'm sure that's...
I'm not doing the injections for two reasons.
First, I'm curious how much placebo is involved with the HCG diet.
Second, I had a nice stash of HCG from cycles years ago until my wife decided to throw away all the "expired supplements" in the counter without telling me and I guess I'm just...
Thanks for the info Copycat! I think you're right about this being a crash diet. I just woke up STARVING. Toughing it out tho.
That Zone Diet is interesting, but it seems REALLY complicated. I understand how the point system works, but I don't understand how it gave me the total number of...
I hear where you're coming from. IMHO, the diet is designed with fatasses in mind. You see quick results, its simple, and it teaches you to eat in small quantities.
Day 4:
Just finished my last meal. Here's today's meal list:
Meal 1
-5 strawberries
-4 oz of 92% grass fed beef
-1 grissini...
Losing muscle doesn't. Really bother me, as long as I lose fat too. I can eat and look at a weight and put on muscle, but when it comes to losing fat, it's another story. If I like the diet I may try it again later with the HCG just to see if it makes a difference.

HCG Diet without the HCG: Diet Log
Howdy all. Its been awhile. I've been out of the gym for a few months now and surprise, surprise, I've gained weight, ballooning up to 300 lbs. Anyways, a guy I worked with who was pretty fat lost 35 pounds in 25 days on the HCG diet. I thought to myself, if...
