Aft of CG Limits

First time posting here so y'all go easy. I'm hoping to get a real world answer for someone who just broke into it. Have any one of you veterans ever had to fly out of the aft CG limits prior to picking up passengers and also dropping them off? This is the first time I've encountered an R44 RII with a longitudinal CG of 107.2 so with my light butt I'm out even without fuel. BTW-Picking up and dropping off passengers in two different spots so ballast either needs to be creative or nonexistent. Weight is an issue with full passengers and all the fuel is needed. Thanks for the helpful replies!
