Hi everyone!

So, I started VLCD1 last SUNDAY (5 days ago) at 185. Today, I weighed in at 167... This is almost 18 lbs in 5 days. Doesn't this seem a bit more than quick to you guys? My last round I was a quick loser in the beginning (12 pounds in 5 days), but this round is off the charts. And no, it's not my scale because I've weighed in various places... The only thing that I can think of is that last round, my LDW was 178. I came home from camp (after battling between 178 and 185 for DAYS-- I cheated my last day of VLCD and got a 12 lb spike -- I know, also abnormal...) and was at 173. I stayed there for nearly three weeks, stabilized, until I jumped back up to 180 again (same previous culprit, tacos with hard shells)... Could it be that my body set itself at 173, and so it just accelerated the weight loss to that point, and then has dipped below since? I'm a little bit worried about it because I don't want to lose it so fast, go into p3, and then gain it all back because my body has no clue what it's doing... Not to mention, I'm worried there might be some sort of imbalance that's "wrong" with my body? Anybody have any ideas? I never had these quick drops and adds before hcg (i don't mind them so much, so long as their drops, lol!)

And here's a breakdown of the days:
Preloading: 180.4
Loading: 185.3
VLCD1: 183.2
2: 172. 8 (11 pound loss)
3. 170.4
4. 170.2
5. 167.4

So really, the only monumental loss was between Days 1 and 2, but I'd say days 4 and 5 was a pretty abnormal loss too, of three pounds? Has this happened to anybody? Or anybody know what the reasoning could be?

Thanks!
