We hear this occasionally. The first week on any diet is always the hardest.
It also takes a day or two for the hcg to kick in and that’s logical isn’t it.
BUT if you are starving and waiting on the above to balance out then just follow this simple suggestion…….
Peel and boil one large potato, save some of the (nutrient dense) water you cooked it in, and mash with that, add little rice milk and salt and pepper – and enjoy. Note rice milk has no fat and looks creamy and tastes like cows milk. Cows milk is very high in fat even if skim.
Yes I know on the diet instructions it says no spuds – but starch does fill you up, is nutrient dense and does most definitely NOT make you fat. You can add one potato everyday to your diet if you want to.
OR have a cup of plain rice, you can add soy sauce or similar (no oil) to taste if you like.
Good Luck.
