Do you have between 60 and 100 lbs to lose?
Here are 16 ladies and gents who were in the same boat a you. Some of these ladies were “done” with their hCG weight loss journey when I interviewed them, and some were still on their journey partway through. Some used hCG injections (you can purchase those here), some used drops.
I’m going to share a pointer that I shared with the 100+ lbs interviews post peeps, because it applies to you to:
1 Pointer for Sanity During A 60-100 Lb Weight Loss Journey
You will find that initially, your weight loss average – how much you lose during 1 round, may be pretty high. Some of you ladies MAY even have that notorious 1lb/day weight loss that circulates online a lot – the 40lbs in 40 days type deal. Many of you still may not, but it’s definitely possible.
But this number WILL go down as you get smaller. And there is nothing wrong with you or you body when this happens. It’s a simple matter of science really – when you are a smaller person, you actually have a lower metabolism in general naturally just by way of weighing less. This means you burn less calories at rest than before. Additionally, think of this: if you lost 35 lbs in one round whiled weighing 250lbs to start, that’s 16% of your bodyweight you lost. But if you lose another 35 lbs in a round, with a starting weight of say 170 lbs this time, that would actually be 20% of your total bodyweight you lost – logically it doesn’t make sense to lose a larger percentage of bodyweight as you get smaller. Does this make sense? That same 35 lbs is a larger amount technically coming off a smaller body than a larger body. If you lost the same 16% of your bodyweight, that would be 27 lbs this time – and like I said you likely won’t even continue to lose the same percentage of bodyweight but less – if you lost say, 13% of your bodyweight at 170 lbs ,that would be 22 lbs.
Once you get into the 40 lb weight loss range, your typical weight loss ratio will usually be more in the .5lb/per day range (which would equate to more like 20 lbs in 40 days)
I hope that makes sense.
My point is, it’s totally normal for your total weight loss each round to gradually go down, this is GOING to happen and I’m warning you now so that you won’t think you’re doing something wrong and get all bummed out. You are doing JUST fine girl.

There have been a few times however that she has had to “catch” weight gain before it got too out of hand and do correction rounds. Usually, she would find herself about 10 lbs higher after the holiday months and do a correction round in the early part of each year.
Her weight has pretty much been between 142-152 most of the past years until she ended up having a surgery- a tummy tuck. As many women know, excess skin can be an issue after major weight loss. One point of note is that she found the hCG to improve her fibromyalgia symptoms.
