Not sure if this was posted anywhere. Looks like some of these companies are still in denial while they try to figure out another way to defraud the consumer.

Everyone is looking for the pill or supplement that will make them magically lose weight. As long as people are gullible then there will always be bogus stuff that folks will willingly spend there money on forever hoping to avoid eating right and exercising in order to lose weight.

Well, I saw some sort of clinic next to a place we like to dine. It had a big sign saying "We have HCG"
They were always closed at dinner time, and I wondered what it was they were selling.
Today we went to eat, and the place was empty, with "Space for lease" signs.

So, what the heck is HCG, anyway?

If ppl would just stop shoving food in their pie holes and get up off their lazy ever widening backsides, they would lose weight.
