.....that FANTASTIC time that we ladies look forward to each month...it's right on the horizon and I am feeling it!!! Here's the way the diet is supposed to work during this time. You are supposed to skip injections but stay on the 500 cal. I am not real sure why that is....do we naturally produce hcg during TOM? Whatever the reason, you aren't supposed to inject. Anyway, I have never had to deal with this because I usually plan my diet around this time. Well, I know for a fact that I will STARVE on 500 cals without the HCG and it only takes like 24 hours to actually get out of your system. So....I think what I am going to do is actually go into the maintenance portion of the diet during my TOM and then pick back up with injections/500 cals after it's over. Luckily mine only lasts 3 days so I won't be off the diet for long. And I am willing to sacrifice the weightloss for 3 days in order to avoid starving!
I don't have time right now, but I will talk about the maintenance portion later on!
3 days! Wow! Mine is 7! I would absolutely starve, be incredibly weak, have headaches, etc. My blood sugar drops big time in my TOM and I need extra calories to counteract it.
