So what is the deal with the hcg diet? I thought about going on it but the diet is a 500 calorie a day diet and that just cant be good. I know some people who have gone on it and lost weight, when I talked to the people at the GNC store they said that people lose weight but then they gain even more weight back. Has anyone here been on the HCG diet before? If so, what was you experience with it?

    as with ANY diet, if you resume your old eating habits of course you will gain it back.... you have to make the lifestyle change along with the diet and thats what this diet teaches you-healthy food choices.
    As far as the 500 calories- that is why you use the drops. It is releasing all the stored abnormal fat into your system, supplying you with the needed calories and nutrients. I have not been hungry nor tired as I would be if I was starving my body. I have lost close to 40 pounds and never felt better. My husband has also done the diet and is still maintaining very well. Like I said you cant expect any diet to work and maintain if you resume doing what made you gain weight in the first place...
