HCG Diet Dangers: Is Fast Weight Loss Worth the Risk?

I did HCG last year and lost 25 lbs. I kept it off. I had energy and learned a lot about my body during the experience. The downside is I think I may have lost some muscle. Just my honest experience. Got on an exercise regime afterwards. It was easier since i wasn't so heavy. I still need to lose 40. try again

I love HCG! I have lost 12 pounds in 3 weeks. I have done a diet on HCG in the past and have lost about the same weight per week as I did in these three weeks. It really does work. I average about 4 pounds per week.
I really don't feel hungry at all while on this 500 calorie a day diet.....It is simply amazing!
The best advice I can give is to plan your meals. I usually make double for dinner so that I can take the remaining for lunch the next day.
Best of luck if you try this wonderful diet.

This is utter and total bs. Anyone will lose lots of weight starving on 500 calories a day! No one ever learns how not to eat for emotional reasons hen they do this. When I was anorexic, I ate like that. Then binged back up to even higher weight. This is a recipe for disaster and poor health.

I found hcgdietspot.com to be helpful as far as what you need for the diet.

I am currently on the HCG diet plan. I have lost about eight pounds in three days. As much as i love that, i dont like being hungry and knowing i am eating way under what i should be eating. HCG can take off up to seventy pounds over 45 days but at the end of the diet if you as a person don't want to or know how to maintain healthy eating habbits all that weight will just come back. I think there are better programs out there like weight watchers that actaully teach you portioning. You dont have to starve yourself but you shed the pounds away.

This diet seems dodgy. I still think it is better not to lose too much weight in the one go. The quicker it comes off the quicker it goes back on simple as that. I have been on crash diets before and the outcome is always the same. I use a nasal spray for sinus allergies by sinusoothe and gave their weight loss pills a go because the nasal spray has been so amazing for me. Their pills really do work.

I'm a 68 yr. old man on day 30 of this diet and have lost 20 lbs. without any major cravings. The info above does not mention the thyroid and detoxification pils I am taking in conjunction with the hcg. The diet also allows for sirloin stake, chicken breast and ground beef. Everything was at a cost of $250.
