Thank you for the kind words and for your side of the hcg story. It doesn’t change my opinion on the hcg diet…and I don’t know that anything will. It doesn’t smell right. And as for the lack of funding: I don’t believe that for a second. If it was as viable as you and others make it seem, some pharmaceutical company would have funded a giant study because there would be BILLIONS to be made through this approach. The drug industry is looking and spending countless millions trying to come up with something that works and if they thought it worked…they would fund the research and go through the hoops of getting FDA approval.

Ummm, wow. Just wow. That’s all I have to say about this comment. Okay, no it’s not… Keep my opinions to myself? It’s my blog. “don’t knock something you yourself have not tried.” okay. I haven’t tried heroin so I better not knock that either. I don’t have to try something to comment on it or have an opinion on it. I do research. I read and use my head and my research and my head tells me this diet is straight up stupid.

Ill have yo know i have done the 6 week hcg program and lost 30 lbs and stayed this way, you need to understand that alot of drugs come from animal or human urine, urine happens to be very sterile, dont knock something you yourself have not tried, also when you write these stuff your giving us a opinion, not a fact. As far as the FDA goes, here is a FACT its another Govt intity that works like the Govt it doesnt, they could tell you eating horse dung is good and you would believe it, why because its the FDA, wake up, nothing is being brought to you in STRAIGHT FORWARD AND HONEST MATTER, i suggest you keep your opinion to yourself, unless you try the diet. Im not obese just needed to loose some weight due to a very slow matabolism, which is inherited>

Hey the fit dad! A friend of mine told me about this today.. and as soon as they mentioned “but it’s a 500 cal diet”… I was like… oookaaay. You do realize that you would lose weight ANYWAYS on 500 freaking calories… IF you stuck to it. Then you would gain everything back eventually because who can really stay on that for any longer than a week?? This diet sounds more like anorexia to me.
Iv’e lost 20 pounds eating healthy and not starving myself.
This is really scary that doctors are doing this instead of focusing on helping obese people learn to eat the right portions and get the correct amount of nutrients that you could never get in a 500 calorie diet…. someone said that “oh but its only 20 something days…” Yeah if I starved myself for that many days I can tell you now that I would gain the weight back in three days because of the massive food binge I would go on.
