Good luck with your weight loss, but the HCG diet has done nothing but HARM to people I know that used it.
The only reason people lose weight on that plan is you are only allowed to eat 500 calories a day. HCG has been scientifically proven to do NOTHING to help with weight loss or to make it safe to eat only 500 calories a day. It will not protect muscle, reset your metabolism or do anything else the snake oil salesmen that sell it claim. Dr. Simeons was a quack doctor. His "HCG protocol" has absolutely NO scientific backing and is not worth risking your health on.
Any doctor that pushes the HCG diet plan should be stripped of their license to practice medicine because they are being totally unethical and giving advice that goes against the conclusions of all reliable scientific research on the subject.
The HCG diet has been studied by many scientific organizations, and they all concluded that HCG, even the "real" injectable version, is no more effective than a placebo, and eating only 500 calories a day for weeks, as recommended by that plan, can cause more health problems than it solves.
I know some people that put their faith in the HCG diet, and became very ill from malnutrition as a result. Then they regained more weight than they lost. Now they wish they never heard of HCG.
The Government is now in the process of getting all that fraudulent stuff off the market, and it's about time!

The weight loss is from the 500 cal a day diet, not the drops

No, it's not natural OR safe.The Secret Diet Drops plan is a natural safe way for dieters to lose their unhealthy weight. It works by suppressing your appetite and accelerating your metabolism turning your body into a perfect fat burning machine. The main reason dieters on the Secret Diet Drops plan lose weight faster is because the diet drops contain only natural amino acids that are powerful appetite suppressants.
The Secret Diet Drops come with a diet plan. You can either follow the plan for 21 days or upto 46 days depending on your goal weight.
How many people naturally ingest an extract from the urine of a pregnant woman daily whilst eating less than your brain alone needs to function? How natural is that?0 -
Its not pee by the way lol.
Prove it!0 -

Uh Oh, sounds like someone got brainwashed by the HCG peddlers.0 -

Prove it!
As the most abundant biological source is women who are presently pregnant, some organizations collect urine from pregnant women to extract hCG for use.....
Did it for you! Thank You Have a Nice Day0 -
I wasnt trying to be rude...... you might find more answers if you look at the other topics....thats all... and I was just warning you that there are people out there that are going to be rude. This is a very hot topic and there are people that feel very strongly about it.
You will probably see both sides of the fence on this one....0 -
Uh this is so annoying....I was at a Memorial Day Party and these 2 educated adults were telling me how they are going to start this new HCG thing and I when I told them I had a better idea for them
don't eat crap and start exercising----they both looked at me like I was the idiot. I was told well their doctor was putting them on it. Their Doctor should lose his license for that.
Will see what happens when I see them on Labor Day. The sad thing is neither one looked like they had that much to lose anyway...maybe 30-40 pounds at the most.0 -

Actually anymore it's rare to even see an HCG thread, most people who support it have either left the site or stopped promoting it (or my theory, they're too weak to type anymore). So all that arguing and fighting kind of paid off. Most people here know it's dangerous and unsustainable and only every now and then do you see a new user asking about the plan.
Once the truth about HCG hits the light of day it's pretty obvious it's not good for anyone.0 -
It's a big fat con. Don't do it. Following MFP principles will get you better results in the long run.0

yeh now ive heard about it properly i wont be trying them!! thank u for all yr thoughts guys :flowerforyou:0

I don't think it should be used unless a doctor tells you its ok and or your need to loose weight really fast for health reasons. I think that if you can limit yourself to 500 calories a day you should be able to cut out a couple hundred calories off of what you are currently eating a day to loose the weight. However, your personal outlook and reasons for dieting have to do with your choice. HCG is a something you take to help you burn the fat you already have and is supposed to limit the amount of muscle you burn while you limit yourself to 500 calories a day. However, once you stop taking the suppliment you are probably going to gain the weight back because you didn't get used to a permanent diet, but instead ate like you were trying to put your body in starvation mode.
So I think it would be better if you did not do the HCG diet, unless you have talked to a doctor about it.0 -
the secret is that it isn't FDA approved because it has been deemed to be dangerous... your body needs a certain amount of calorie intake to function even if you are in a coma - with these drops you don't even come half way to that amount needed...
As someone else said, this should be a lifestyle chance and not a quick fix - research shows that a massive percentage of peeps who do fast diets will gain 150% back what they have lost.
You want life long lasting results? Eat a healthy high nutrient lower calorie (though keep it at least to what your body would need in a coma state) and create yourself an exercise routine which consists of cardio + strength training.0 -
to be honest if i could only eat the 500 cals a day i wouldnt be fat to begin with.... lol i personally could not do 500 cals a day0

Another one saved. High fives all around!0 -
500 cals a day is only for stage two tho...
No it's not.. it's for the whole diet... until you reach what weight you want, and then up the calories to a healthy level.
You take the drops(which do nothing BTW) and eat 500 calories per day.. and your not supposed to exercise either.
What's the point of the drops if they do nothing? The main part of getting healthy is eating right and exercising. I don't understand why people don't realize fad diets are just that. Majority gain the weight back because they don't learn how to eat right and get active.0 -
