    Am I one of the only ones who cant stand to even read some posts? Like whenever anyone asks for "diet tips" or even at the name of HCG people just get plain rude! The poster may be new to losing weight and it should be ok to talk about. The forms should be open for all discussion not just "diet and exercise is the only thing to lose weight"

    Does anyone else feel this way too? This has just been bothering me for a long time!

    Some people are down right rude. I have seen people call people 'idiots' for just asking about HGC. It's ridiculous.

    Yes HGC is a starvation diet, no it's not good for you but calling people idiots for just asking about it is out of order.

    I have a very low opinion of the HGC diet, partially because the people that do it don't even seem to understand anything about it and the people that do wouldn't touch it with a ten foot pole.

    This is the internet.

    There are many kinds of people on said internet.

    Some just tell people what they want to hear.

    Others tell the truth, naked and unvarnished.

    Which is better in the long run?
    I think it's rude to tell me the truth when you are unvarnished. I don't want to see that.

    I can stand a little varnish.

    ^^ This!

    I've participated in several HCG threads, usually where the OP was unfamiliar and had heard about it and was asking out of curiosity OR the OP was considering it and wanted opinions. I just calmly share my opinion about it and list the reasons why I think it's a bad idea. The OP will decide if they want to do it based on what they read. Calling them an idiot or saying things like "Drinking pregnant lady pee is stupid" is NOT helpful. I share your opinion about HCG, but rather than call someone stupid for asking, I try to explain it to the best of my knowledge and give them reasons why I wouldn't do it.

    The best thing to have over immature people is ignore. I have a lot of people on here that I ignore. They continue to follow me. But, they are being ignored. They want attention. Don't give rude people attention.
