There should be a rule of only allowing people who know grammar on the internet -_-
I dn't understand have o y say.

It's good that you have had success, so far, though.

I still rather lose weight the old fashion way. Then I can be proud of all the hard work I've done

Everyone is entitled to their opinion. It is called an opinion, not fact. And just because it doesn't agree with yours, you don't have to attack it.

No one on here is condemning anyone for asking questions, we are giving our opinions, which is what she asked for.

Regardless of what your politically correct teachers taught you in middle school, not everyone is entitled to their opinion and people should be ridiculed for stupid ones. If I came in here saying X skin-colored people were evil then I would be banned and people would tell me (hopefully) that I'm an idiot.

The same goes for HCG. If someone comes in here saying it's healthy, good for losing weight and there's nothing wrong with it then they should be ridiculed and laughed off the metaphorical stage. This diet is dangerous, it's stupid, it's irresponsible and anyone who supports it is not entitled to a civil discussion about it. I can chop my legs off to lose weight but that does't mean it's smart. If anyone thinks a diet where you eat 500 calories a day is smart then that I have a bridge in Alaska to sell to them.

Thanks for all the replies. I know alot of people that have done this diet with success long term. I have not thought of it as healthy but I was just looking for opinions. I will NOT be doing it just because I want to say it did it the "healthy way" and I want to learn to eat healthy and properly on the way through the weight loss journey so that I can maintain it on the other side of this battle.

Thanks so again for all your replies!!

Good for you! Being that you want to inspire your kids on a better life, this is the choice that will make a better impact.

Anecdotal evidence isn't evidence. How can you have a higher RMR when ALL science shows that reduced intake slows metabolism? Don't post opinions, post proof.

so, one of the trainers at my gym was telling me that one of his clients did the HCG (Hungry Crazy Girl) Diet and trained with him and worked out regularly and ended up in a coma. So..... there's that, if you're into that sexy stuff. Then, by all means...

comas are very sexy.

Good luck to everyone who blows off maitenance on their current diet! That's what people do with HCG and that's why they gain it back. All diets require a life change, there is other phases to the diet other than 500 cals... do your research before you form an opinion.

Glad you said it!

I have never been a fan of diets/program that are extreme. Also, I think it is about your health.. not just being thin. Your heart, your bones, etc. I did hear what you were saying about your joints. I am the same weight as you are (give or take a pound).. I am sure you know.. there are many excercises that will not be hard on your joints. Swimming and biking --(stationary or not )

Good luck with your choice. We are all here for support..

I love how people can have opinions about things they know almost nothing about and have spent next to no time researching. They see "500 calories" and think OMG instant STARVATION. FIrst of all the diet works in phases and the 500 calories is for three or four weeks only. I've done fasts and cleanses that were longer than that. In maintenance, most people can eat 2000+ calories per day without gaining (my personal experience). Secondly, obesity KILLS people and the current logic of "eat less/exercise more" isn't helping many of them. This diet has been available at weight loss clinics for over 60 years. I am 40 (not 14) and my husband is 43, and we have lost 20 and 29 pounds respectively in a ittle over a month and kept it off after going back to a healthy 2000+ calorie paleo type diet. No side effects, no long term damage to our metabolisms, no comas and no regrets!

A month of 500 calorie a day eating is NOT a safe thing for people to do. JUST SAYIN.
