So here's the scoop. I had planned on doing another hcg round in early October. Then today I did the math, and with my cycles, were I to do an October one, it looks like I'd not get started until the end of Oct. Rats! Then I'd not be able to do a full long cycle, if I wanted to enjoy Christmas food at all. I had grudgingly reconciled myself to still being on the shots/diet during Thanksgiving, but Christmas, too? Come on! So if I do October, it'd probably be a four week cycle of shots (and approx. a 20# loss--if I'm lucky). Then not again until Jan. or Feb. So...not as good.
Then I got this great idea, Hey, I could do it in September! Then I'd be on stabilization for Thanksgiving (a huge pile of turkey and salad, at least) and done well before Christmas!
Then later, it hit me. I'd have to start only four weeks after my surgery. The diet/shot regimen is very hard on my body. I don't want to do ANYTHING to compromise my healing.
So I don't know what to do. I remind myself, "Long term!" But I'm really at a loss of what to do. I suppose I should wait a few more weeks, then ascertain how I'm doing. But, I like a good plan to work with.
Thoughts (on email, please)?
Please be kind to yourself and let your poor abused
