I'm new and trying anything right now. HCG didn't work for me so I am hoping just old fashioned watching and being aware will help. Good luck to everyone else out there!

    HCG is extreme. You essentially give yourself a shot in the thigh each morning and then only eat 500 calories a day (very specific diet) for 42 days. You have to do this right and under strict observance. The medicine behind it is rough, the side effects in the long run are few, but it only works on certain people. If it works for you, its extreme and its quick - but it is hard.

    It works for a lot of people. But again, there is no real science behind it. Something my doctor recommend I try. I did. hated it. I know people it has worked for though. And know others it didn't. Always something to research and discuss with a medical professional if you are interested. It is extreme though and ifyou are needle shy, not for you.
