Day 28 TOM VLCD 157.4

157.4 lbs.

25 drops 3xs/day

TOM = Time of the Month

TOM started today. The protocol states that you shouldn't take the drops during TOM, but you can if you want. I am going to this time. Last cycle I didn't. I was really hungry!

So, I did the apple thing. Only I could only get 4 apples down instead of the entire 6. I am not a fan of apples! But, I lost about 2 pounds!! Yay! That was fun to see on the scale. So, it could have been just bloating from PMS. Weight lost after an apple day is mostly water, but it shouldn't be regained back (that's what it says). So, we'll see. I resumed the normal hcg diet at dinner. Like I have said, I think the key is timing on drops and water.

I am going to get the albumin test strips. They cost $36 for 100 strips. This will test whether I have protein in my urine. If I have too much protein in my urine, it means that the weight that I am losing is muscle and not fat. I am anxious to see what the result will be. I don't want to cause troubles for my kidneys.

  2. Good for you Min! I suggest buying both the keto strips and albumin strips. It helps to see what your body is doing.
