I actually tried the HCG diet myself and lost around 35 pounds in one month. I was able to keep the weight off for about two years but then gained it all back due to poor eating habits. I feel like it really did work for me since I didn’t feel hungry most of the time. I honestly think that without the hormone it would’ve been impossible for me to eat 500 calories per day. I would definitely never do it again though, only because it’s way too restrictive and obviously not sustainable.

Yep your body wants that fat and calrioes back. Natural is the best way lost 140 and type 2 diabities

I did it. She binge ate, that’s on her. My doctor made it clear that after the 4 weeks I need to maintain a healthy life style and go back to working out to keep it off.

I lost 50 pds 5 yrs ago w HCG and kept it off no problem. I had tried everything, working out, low cal, low carb and I lost very little before. For me it was great. I eat healthy now and go to the gym. BTW I did NOT do 500 cals I did around 800-1000.

I am very disciplined eater so if someone doesn't cave in and binge then can HCG be better for them?
I can't get lean enough on my own through cardio and weighing my macros.
Single digits seems impossible without sups for some ?
Not doing stupid diet of pure starvation when building muscle and training every day.
Set point for me seems 16% every % below that is a furious battle of LOTS of cardio and carb depleting.. which is not sustainable.
I want to eat a potato with my chicken and Cardio 2X a day for ever and ever is not sustainable.
Maybe 10%-12% is simply not sustainable for some without spending more time at the Gym that your home.

Great way to slow your metabolism down.. then when you start eating again.. normally. Guess what disaster.. not rocket science

anyone on a 500 calorie diet lose weight... it wouldn't have to take anything at all... doesn't make sense

It worked, and still (keeping off 38 pounds lost 7 yrs ago) working...VERY well for me. It depends, like most things, on the person. ☺❤

Good info. So my set point was at 178-180. Not I’m at 190. Gotta get things moving. Walking more and hanging at 1600cal a day. Hope to see results soon

Also the diet recommends light resistance training but not aerobic exercise and there is a scientific reason for that.

Plenty of people use the HCG diet and keep the weight off for life once they ease into the maintenance phase. The HCG hormone doesn’t cause the weight loss- it doesn’t claim to- it stops your body going into starvation mode on the 500 calorie diet. That’s what it’s sole purpose is. I’ve used it successfully and it’s been years and I haven’t put the weight back on.
Heaven Marie . 1 year ago
To all that say they lost the weight and gained it all back. Then that wasn’t any diets fault. Even after you lost the weight you wouldn’t have to stick to 500 calories. You could eat maintenance calories and not gain weight. If you gained weight back it’s because you started eating like you did prior to the diet. And so that’s the way the big ball bounces. If you consume more than you spend in calories...you gain weight. Can’t blame any diet on that.

Hcg also prevents muscle loss on a low calorie diet
Taylor Amanda Arnoux-Prost . 1 year ago
I've been on 500 cal a day. Was to kick start my bikini prep. Wasn't healthy won't be doing it again. I never took the shots but I did still lose 20 pounds in 3 weeks. It's seriously not sustainable though won't attempt again and The refeed during a prep was just horrible. I didn't stop training though no way.

Good thing I saw this video before I buy the HCG

HCG diet can cause very serious and life threatening health problems. My sister did two rounds of the HCG diet under doctor supervision and had pulmonary embolism. I lost my dearest sister to such a seemless thing. I’m writing this comment to bring awareness to the public about the risk of this diet and maybe save some lives. Go read about all contraindications and possible side effects of this diet. Fatal complications of the HCG diet are rare but very real. Unfortunately, my sister was one of this rare cases and lost her life. Big tragedy!

You said there was no such thing as starvation mode

Since following the advice to eat 1200 calories a day, I haven't been able to lose weight. This last week I set a goal of reaching 6,000 steps per day, 5 days of 30 mins of cardio, and switching from upper and lower body strength training. Hoping these new goals will get me to my goals. So done with the calorie counting!

I am sooo thankful that I am from small, god-forsaken Slovakia and shits like that hasn´t reached us yet :D And I hope that they will not :D This is the first time I´ve ever heard about that and it sounds crazy!

I have a level of respect for doctors, but they’re pill pushers with limited time and they have a fixed response for every symptom, and typically a fixed prescription! We need preventative medicine or as some say “functional medicine”. We have to take control and be the experts of ourselves.

This made me CRINGE!!!! I can’t believe they would recommend that!

British doctor named Albert Simeons first proposed HCG as a weight loss tool in 1954.
His diet consisted of two main components:
An ultra low-calorie diet of around 500 calories per day.
The HCG hormone administered via injections.
500 Calories a day...no wonder they say stop working out...temp fix that is not healthy
elevated blood levels of HCG may also be a symptom of several types of cancer, including placental, ovarian and testicular cancer

There are 4 phases, where you even reverse diet to bring metabolism back up but it is still wonky. There's a book the doctor wrote and there's few access to it online, I can't even remember where but this is how my problem started. I am currently on a reverse and have an additional 35 lbs so far, sigh. So ready for all my work to show ... wish I was in a place to work with you right now! Trying to absorb as much info from you as I can over the last few months!!

joseph domingue . 2 years ago
Why would any intelligent person go to a doctor to lose 5 to 10 lbs...??? Why would anyone go to a doctor for fitness advice...??? She sounds like someone who would do anything anyone will suggest to her, she is more of her own problem than any method she is using... smh.
Tori Maxwell . 2 years ago
I did this diet and managed to keep weight off for three years. I did experiment between just doing 500 calories and doing Hcg ( naturopathic drops). And I couldn't lose it with just the calorie method. So there is something in it. How ever over time the weight went up and I tried it again, lost a bit but then couldn't cope with it and couldn't reverse out of it so gained weight back. Now I'm doing things sensibly, gym and a healthy diet and I'm in a much better place weight and body wise!
Bella Fernandez . 2 years ago

Angela Trinidad . 2 years ago
I did it and I losted 11 pounds I was 147. Honestly I lost more weight after the diet because I just trained and lift weights. I am 118 now and kept it off for 3 years and counting

how to attack fat while obese, eat at a high deficit or low deficit? I've seen some folks say its ok to lose more then 2 pounds a week if your obese, this would mean eat around 1500 calories from maintenance, any thoughts? got any videos of this topic?

Can you check out the snake juice diet? A lot of my friends are doing this, all female. I try to talk about it but I don't know enough of the science to be factual. Would love to hear your thoughts from the scientific point of view you have.

Just one reason to do your own research before listening to anyone including someone you should be able to trust

That’s pretty much what happened to me. I did HCG years ago and my metabolism was never the same. I can’t get below 160 to save my life and I am 5’2.

That's so unfortunate what happened to her 😮
Colin DeWaay . 2 years ago
Ugh. Yeah I had someone reach out saying they had been on this too, and I had to look it up and was appalled (but not surprised.) Unfortunately she didn't like what I had to say about reversing and I never heard back.

Shaking head in disbelief, if a doc prescribes this as a treatment they should be suspended at least. Thanks for the vid.
