    I tried them a couple of times. The weight fell off but I could not stay well. I would go off the diet every time I got sick and just yo-yo'd until I finally had enough. I am not a sickly person and it was obvious that I was doing something that was not good for me. Huge waste of money and I am now heavier than when I started taking the HCG. Healthy diet and exercise is the only way to go.

    I' ve done it 2x. Ended up getting a CT scan because of the pain in my kidney area. Won't ever touch it again.

    There's a bunch of uses for HCG but weight lose should not be one of them. KarinCakes was correct about what composes HCG. Many steroid users take HCG at the end of their cycles to promote testical start-up. Any of the lose weight fast gimmicks are just that...gimmicks. And potentially dangerous gimmicks. The best weight lose plan is to eat a balanced healthy diet and put the work in! Get plenty of exercise and lose weight gradually over a period of time. Most if not all "get rich quick" plans are destined for failure!

    Or a pregnant lady. That's my plan. Get knocked up and sell my urine on the black market.

    On a more serious note, this is from the Mayo Clinic:

    I may be being completely ignorant here, but HCG is the hormone that is present in early pregnancy yes?

    Do you not mimic pregnancy symptoms?
  • Thank you to everyone who replied (and was polite to me anyway). I've decided against them. I'm just going to stick with the hard work I've been doing. Thank you all though!! :-)
