		<description>&lt;p&gt;I also want to say I find it funny that not a single person that has actually done this diet properly has a single negative thing to say about it! I have myself done the HCG diet through injections and absolutely love the weightloss and the way i feel i have regained control of my body and weight. I am currently in my second round and have lost a total of 38lbs and no one could convince me that this is harmful with my lasting results feeling great and regaining my cofidence. I have countless friends and family including both my parents who have done it with me and have lost weight they have had on them for over 25 yrs and have tried everything else under the sun to get rid of it! My father had been put on high blood pressure meds and as soon as he started this his blood pressure was the lowest its been in 4 yrs and he has to date lost 55lbs and when he is off he has not had to go back to taking his blood pressure meds because his blood pressure is no longer high.. Ive done soooo much research on this diet and have nothing but extremely good things to say about it! I have helped so many friends, family members and there friends with finding the tools to do this in the comfort of there own home. I am now putting kits together to help others and giving them the resources to get the hcg and do it themselves. my website is completehcg.com and is still in the process of being done but will be alot of help to those of you who want to do the diet have great results and have it be affordable. It should be done in about a week or two :) best wishes to all of you and great job getting off the weight!!&lt;/p&gt;

		<description>&lt;p&gt;I find it amusing that not one post is negative about this. I also believe in this. My mom lost 34 lbs and 32 in. in her first round. She has been trying for 30 years. I can&#039;t tell you how her self assurance improved. Now my sister and I are on it and I really can&#039;t say anything bad about it. We started on Thanksgiving (so I&#039;m on day 8) and I have lost 7.2 lbs. I think it really works.&lt;/p&gt;

		<description>&lt;p&gt;I am beginning week two of Round 2, Phase 2, today (Thanksgiving). I lost 37 pounds during the first round, and have lost 10 since the load weight so far this round. (down 43 from beginning first round)
My Dr. first prescribed hcg for me, but I had researched before I started. For the first time in years, I am taking the weight off, and it is Staying off, even during Phase 3 and 4!
I will continue to use this miracle and reach my goal weight. I am not hypoglycemic anymore, sleep better, snore less, have much more energy, and have less aches and pains.&lt;/p&gt;

		<description>&lt;p&gt;To Diane: I am so happy to read your post!!!I am a Type 1 diabetic as well and I have been spending hours researching HcG to see if it is right for me and I believe it is. I too, have spent so much time trying so many different things, and I am very active playing tennis 3 times a week and walking in betwee, but the scale never budges. I would love to hear more from you if you don&#039;t mind. Did your endo prescribe the HcG injections for you? How long did it take you to lose the 30?&lt;/p&gt;

		<description>&lt;p&gt;Yup, remember, this IS &quot;the Weight Loss Cure THEY don&#039;t want you to know about&quot;. Here&#039;s a clue for those of you who haven&#039;t figured out that we are manipulated from birth to death by corporate interests, and their accomplices in the so-called health &quot;care&quot; industry. This diet doesn&#039;t benefit &quot;them&quot;... so don&#039;t hold your breath waiting for a good review from &quot;them&quot;. Now, &quot;diet and exercise&quot; ... there&#039;s a gold mine... in so many ways! And diet pills, with a 1000% markup...what&#039;s not to love? &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I lost 50 pounds in 60 days as easy as pie with HCG (well, OK, no pie, at least until goal weight was achieved) and have kept it off so far without any real effort. The key to this diet is it doesn&#039;t just work... if you spend the time to learn about it and follow it correctly, it literally reeducates your body to handle food better, and you will desire better and less fattening foods. This is a terrific example of something that works precisely because it is a perfectly natural substance, NOT a drug. I don&#039;t think God designed this hormone for pregnant women as a cruel joke... or because it doesn&#039;t work ... do you?&lt;/p&gt;

		<description>&lt;p&gt;Sorry, but science can be flawed, dirty or both. This diet works and so far is the only thing out there to help a lot of desperately unhappy people who have tried everything their whole lives. But I love that it&#039;s underground and dismissed by the mainstream -- gives it more credibility.&lt;/p&gt;

		<description>&lt;p&gt;I don&#039;t care what anyone says.  Burning more calories than you take in doesn&#039;t always work.  I&#039;ve tried everything under the sun. Food journals, excercise, body buggs, etc.  I think the people that can do this with diet and excercise are the lucky ones in life and they should buy a lottery ticket.  For the rest of us that have tried everything under the sun to lose weight....it&#039;s time to look at options such as the hcg.&lt;/p&gt;

		<description>&lt;p&gt;Those studies didn&#039;t follow Dr. Simeons&#039; Protocol. The foods that they ate plus the caloric sum plus the dosages were wrong. I&#039;m sorry the studies showed no evidence that the protocol did work because they didn&#039;t follow the protocol. I&#039;m sorry but &quot;scientific research&quot; is flawed!! I am a personal trainer myself. I&#039;ve had a weight problem all of my life. I would workout hard 2-3 hours/day. I trained to become a boxer and so the intensity of my workouts were through the roof! I&#039;ve been on every diet you can name including WW which is purportedly &quot;healthy&quot; and &quot;sensible&quot;. Oh yeah, eating 100 cal. portion sizes of sugar and chemicals is sensible. Right. I always felt deprived...always. This diet only been the diet that works for me. I carry it in my middle. My middle is melting. The most difficult to go on me. I&#039;m sorry. I don&#039;t care what &quot;science&quot; says. It&#039;s saving many people&#039;s lives, giving them another opportunity to live again.&lt;/p&gt;

		<description>&lt;p&gt;Hmmmm...I question the double-bind studies too. I have gone through 2 rounds since Feb. of this year and have lost 60 pounds on the HCG Diet. I was never hungry and was able to break my dependency on sugar, alcohol and bad carbs. I swear by the diet. I didn&#039;t have the will power myself to do this without hunger. Has anyone ever tried a 500 calorie a day diet?! I don&#039;t think saline injections would prevent extreme hunger pangs or the loss of significant lean tissue. I&#039;ve been checking body-fat as well and it has gone done in direct proportion to my weight loss.&lt;/p&gt;
