    I am not in favour of HCG. I think it is a bad idea (super low cal diet) that was mated with another bad idea ( pregnant women's urine) and then a 3rd bad idea (charging a **** ton of money for it) showed up to make it an unholy threesome of bad ideas.

    Having said that, when new people post about trying it, we could, if we wanted to, remember that they haven't seen 50 000 threads about this topic in the past 2 months and probably haven't had access to the numerous links we have all seen/read/ignored in those 50 000 threads. Rather than immediately jumping in with confusing and sarcastic remarks about how far south the thread is about to go, we could take a moment to explain why people react badly to this method.

    Take 2 minutes to educate people about why we don't support the idea. This way, you are supporting the person without supporting the technique. If you make people immediately defensive, they will defend, even if they don't completely believe in what they are defending.

    If, once they have the information, they continue to want to try this method, who cares? It doesn't hurt you and you have done all you could to dissuade them, so can get a good night's sleep, cradled in that comfy knowledge.

    Now, if someone would be so kind as to pass me some popcorn, I would really appreciate it.

    :heart: You are awesome.

    Not to be too cynical here, but surely they know it's going to 'work' since you'll be eating so little, plus there's a lot of $$$ in medical weight loss. Like I said before, I only know what I read here on the forums, so don't take that as an attack but rather as a hypothetical possible answer.

    I wonder too. You mentioned you're a runner. I don't understand how a doctor would prescribe a diet that says you shouldn't exercise and starve yourself. I also see you only have ten pounds to lose. HCG is usually prescribed in more extreme cases of obesity.

    Personally, I would get a new doctor.

    Yea...that did not resemble a complete coherent thought. I'm really confused, but I have a feeling we're not going to change her mind. I feel sorry for people who have money-grubbing doctors who don't care about the actual health of their patients.

    Contrarian is right of course. lol

    I'm sure OP was shocked by the odd comments.

    Truthfully I didn't see anyone being actually attacked until someone complained of being attacked.

    Lots of funny stuff people do and lots of unnecessary spaces I make.

    You do not get fat overnight, and there's no "easy" fix, only simple ones.
