Has anyone gotten a good schedule for all of this eating on time.

[hondapatches]

I have never eaten so much in my life. lol I get up at 6:15 eat at 6:30 then I eat again at 1:30 and take the pills at 2:00. At 9:30 I eat again and take the pills at 10:00. I was just wondering about the time between 10:00 and 7 in the morning.that is close to 9 hours. Has anyone got a better schedule?

I'm definitely not a morning person.  Today, I woke up at 8:30am, breakfast, pills by 9am, went back to bed... then around 5-ish, I had a snack (sandwich) with another dose, then regular dinner (no pills) -- around 11:30pm, I had some ice cream and final dose...

We'll see if this schedule works.  If now, I'll tweak it a bit, but I can't imagine ever being up at 6am to do breakfast and a dose!

Thank you for all of your help I feel better now. At least I think I am on the right track..:) I'm not a morning person either...:(

I don''t wait 30min after I eat 30 minutes before. Sorry if I said it wrong.

I am going into week 6 this Wednesday night and my pill schedule meets yours almost exactly.  I try to wake up a little early to make sure I get my Incivek in before the 7 am mark, which is the 9 hour maximum.  I am not a morning person or breakfast for that matter so this is difficult first thing in the AM.  I have managed to swallow 3 tbls of peanut butter and about 15 minutes later take my pills.  Sometimes it takes me almost 30 min to eat so i too start about 1/2 hour before.  The PI states to eat 20 grams within 30 min before you are due to take the pills.  If it works keep it up.  I am struggling with this tx, I am the sole income for a house of four and my partner is going through chemo for breast cancer, our house is not fun.  My moods are destroying our life and relationships.  So my heart too goes out to indy531's sister in law!

Thanks for the words of encouragement; my hep doc said B12 and folate were ok as well as wheatgrass juice in oj. Counseled w/specialty pharmacy today-meds arrive tomorrow by fed ex. My heart goes out to my Sister in law who is fighting breat cancer/treating w/chemo.

I've been on incevik for 9 weeks now eating my 20 grams three times day, I haven't gain or lost a pound, and I can't ex exercise like I used to. I only can get to the gym on my good days. Last time I treated I lost forty pounds and looked like death, I'm am happy the way things are looking now the only thing I'm losing is the fat around my gut. I do a protein shoe in the morning with peanut butter, at about 11 a.m. I'm starving so I eat some fruit, at 2:00 I eat lunch with incevik and then dinner around 7:00. At ten I take incevik again with ice cream sometime Oreos and whole milk. It definitely got easier after about two weeks. I bought everything in the store I thought I would eat and once the medication started that all changed. By the way I was und at 4 weeks. You'll get the hang of it, it just takes some tweaking once you start. Good luck. Joe

Courious, why do you wait 30 minutes after you eat to take your Inc.? Good luck going forward to svr.

Indy -- I know how you feel, I was scared out of my little mind too.  But the shot was not bad at all.  I say this, being a person who has felt nearly every shot in life.  I can't even rip off a band-aid, but I got through the shot just fine.  And you will too.

Honda -- Here is a link to a schedule I made in my journal (I'm still working on it).  Hope it helps:

I'm still just going for whatever sounds good at the moment. Avocados always go down smooth. If I'm super careful w/ sodium count, I can make a healthy pizza or plate of nachoes. (13 chips exactly) lol. I do the sublingual B12 every morning. Dr said to go for it. I was too thin and am kinda happy w/ the weight gain. I think Whey protein n green powder in a boost shake always go down smooth too. Glad to hear you're doing so well! Go girl! Karen :)

[hondapatches]

I have been having exactly one cup of ice cream at 9:30 :) I just know I'll gain soooo much before all this is over, Oh well. You need to tell your dr. about anything you are takeing because I was taking livitone plus and my doctor said I had to stop that one. I'll be here lol anytime you need anything let me know :))

I begin tx next Friday, but I'm trying to wk out the following (not too different from your schedule : 5:30 englis muffin and Riba/Vic, 1:30 Vic-snack crackers/cheese, Riba w/some dinner, 7:00 AD's and 9:15- Vic (not sure about eating much then-I know I don't have to do the 20gr fat w/Vic). I also take B12, Foplate, and wheatgrass juice shot w/juice in am dosing. Scared to dickens about Peg shot, but I'm sure you all will be supportive. How about Klondike ice cream for bedtime or an avocado?
