Official start of Phase 3- maintainence Today!

Last round, when phase 3- maintenance came around, I was scared shitless!
You can have whatever you want to eat (except sugar and carbs of course) and that frightened me!
I was absolutely positive I would gain all the weight back if I had some cheese or avacado.
Boy was I wrong! I actually lost two pounds and ate like a queen. After being on the VLCD (very low calorie diet) for 45 days, at first my taste buds didn't know what to make of the food and it wasn't as spectacular as I had imagined. After a few days that changed, but it wasn't junk that was amazing, it was home made omelettes with onion, tomato, bell pepper, mushrooms and some sharp cheddar. My appreciation for simple, home made meals has sky rocketed. That's what's so amazing about this diet, it's like a quick fix, but with long term physical and metal effects.
I do have to admit that phase 3 does get a little nerve wracking if you are planning on doing another dropping phase, cuz it feels kinda like limbo for a while. Though it is important to have this resting phase after dropping for at least 3-6 weeks so your body doesn't get used to the hcg.
The absolute hardest part about the entire diet is that period of 72 hours where you are off the drops but still have to stick to the VLCD, ugh, my tummy hurt the 3rd day, I cannot lie.
But the results far exceed the one or two days of discomfort!






Mm
 HCG- no time like the present
