WTH is Rejuvenesse???

misssuperstitious

I'm posting this because a buddy of mine is trying this Rejuvenesse diet because even though he works out a ton, his weightloss has been paused for a while...it sounds like a bad idea to me, but I thought I'd see what you all thought, or if you've even heard of it? He said his Dad did it and lost 50lb.s in a month, gained half of it back, and is doing it again...my buddy is just starting it for the first time. Again, I'm not doing this, so don't bother talking me out of it, I'm just gathering info for a friend. Thanks as always! :flowerforyou:

Looks like it is the hCG diet. Tricks your body into thinking your pregnant and you can only eat 500 calories. I saw something about it on the News. No proof that it works if I recall correctly. I can't even imagine 500 calories......

The Wellness Center at the hospital I work at has a program similar to this. Medically monitored non-surgical weight loss. There are a lot of criteria you must meet to even qualify for our program so if this program accepts everyone I'd be leery of it. Our participants have to go through a lot of testing and counseling to even qualify. It's not for those who only want to lose minimal weight. Plus, most participants end up putting the weight back on once they leave the program. My opinion is, the more you work to lose it, the less likely you will be to put it back on. Just my opinion.
