I strongly discourage any and everyone from trying this diet.

Some of the HCG drug user key phrases they use over and over and over:

"Protocol"
"Blood work"

For anyone who wants/needs to lose weight, I STRONGLY encourage you to try:

Weight Watchers
Body For Life
P90x
Crossfit
Nutrisystem

Anything before even attempting this HCG stuff. I feel that it is my duty as a trainer, a parent, a fitness buff, and City Data member to really help people make the right decisions on their heatlh/fitness, so I will continue to always disagree with the people/person who keeps pushing this horrible horrible horrible weight loss scam of a program call HCG. There are people who come to these boards who really are looking for help, so it is important that we keep them away from scammers and potentially harmful diets like HCG.

Code for this is: "Message me and I'll sell some HCG to you".

People can do the research on this for themselves if they want. Or, they can just go through my posting history in the HCG threads to see all the info I have already posted on this from my own research.

They will come to the conclusion to stay very very far away from the HCG diet.

Why do you need to do it again? It didn't work?

I haven't done it for almost a year. I went on a huge junk food binge and obviously gained back unwanted weight as ANY person would regardless of their diet lol. Wow!

Um, actually, those who lose weight on a reasonable diet and change their eating habits permanently will not go on "junk food binges" and regain the weight. A good plan will include maintenance and instruction in ways to manage eating out and special occasions without blowing the diet.

It is likely that the metabolic alterations related to a semistarvation diet contributed to regaining the weight, and every time you do it, it will get worse.

So you see, the HCG diet is not all you are trying to make it out to be. It really did not work if you regained weight within a year.

Q.E.D.!

Oh, I completely forgot that everyone who goes on a diet ALWAYS stays on track, eats healthy, and NEVER regains the weight. Let's blame this on the diet, itself, instead of the person! Bright idea lol

So you really DIDNT learn to eat correctly then as you said in an earlier post? You said HCG diet helped you learn how to eat healthily, so I guess it failed you on this huh?
