This is a violation of MFP guidelines.
Also, it invalidates what you've said. How convenient, your first two posts here, and they are to promote your website, where you sell the crap.0 -

There are also people who have done this "diet" and have lost hair, been sick, light-headed, etc. We all know anorexics do serious damage to their internal organs (Karen Carpenter died of heart failure due to her anorexia). HCG requires you to eat at the level of an anorexic. What I don't get is that people would say an anorexic is unhealthy eating at that level, but it's okay to do it if you take HCG? Does that not strike people as odd (I know most MFPers will find it as odd as I do--I'm talking about the people that fall for this stuff)?
The fact that Kevin Trudeau is associated with this should give people serious pause. The man is NOT a medical doctor or even a scientist and has been investigated and fined by the Federal Trade Commission numerous times for promoting this type of crap. I guess because he promotes it as some "secret the government doesn't want you to know about", people fall for it. An elderly lady gave my mom a copy of Trudeau's book (the one that promotes HCG, among other junk science) at church. When my mom showed it to me, I told her to just go home and google Trudeau's name. I guaranteed her she wouldn't even want to waste her time reading the book once she saw his record, and I was right. She politely returned it to the lady a week later. My mom's a nurse and knows enough to recognize crap science when she sees it!0 -
the drops are not ever real hgc and the only reason why you would loose weight is because they put you on the 500 cal diet. Save your $ work out 10 min more a day and cut out any "treats" and you will drop pounds XX0

isnt a poster openly selling this dangerous stuff a violation?0

Yup. I reported them. The two people advertising the diet on this post both had new profiles with nothing filled out and have only commented on this post.0 -
Good idea! I don't think it has anything to do with the drops. Anybody would lose tons of weight eating only 500 calories a day, which is totally unhealthy.0

Kevin effing Trudeau. That man made millions off of ignorance. Disgusting. I remember seeing him on TV going on and on about how coral calcium is all you need to prevent cancer, but "They" don't want you to know, and so he could be pulled off the air at any minute!! (He wasn't and the fake science he pedals is dangerous)0

Not touching this with a 10 foot pole. Get your flame suits on, people!
Ha! Ha! Ha! I think I'll zip it for a change, too! = D Best of luck to you!0 -

I can't stand that guy. He preys on people's fears to get them to fork over their money to him. Thankfully, the FTC put the kibosh on his TV commercials, but they can't really do anything about his books (freedom of the press).0 -
I can't take it! What I can never understand is that if you can follow the HCG program and eat 5 apples a day, why can't you follow a 1200 - 1500 calorie diet (if you eat exercise calories?). Is speed the issue? I did that once using ephedra before I knew it was ephedra. Let me tell you I lost 2 pounds a week but I also ate NOTHING. 1/4 cup of something here and there. It was an appetite killer. But getting off of it was the real killer. I could not eat enough food or get it in fast enough! Talk about rebound weight gain! YIKES! Also notice that these HCG users don't generally consult their own doctors about this because they only want to hear that it works.
I've also noticed that the people using HCG are "using it" and losing weight. The proof is in the pudding. Talk to us later when you've kept it off for years. I didn't' notice that anyone had used it and had kept their weight off for years. To the one person who learned to eat healthy while on it, so did I but it took a few years for my brain to catch up to the fact that this was a lifestyle change for me and not a diet. I learned to eat whole grains, lean meats, fruits, veggies, and nuts while incorporating daily exercise and portion control. (Started with Dr. Oz's You: on a Diet book.) There was no such thing as a quick fix for me. Just time and effort. There is no point in losing weight if you can't keep it off and learn what you need to about healthy living while eating 5 apples a day.0 -
HCG does work very well. Yes the calorie restriction is causing the weight loss, but the hcg drops help with hunger control.

most people want a quick fix. And DON"T want to do any work to get results. It's called lazy! Losing weight that fast is not healthy.....and your not just losing fat.....your losing lean body mass. SO VERY BAD!
HCG has nothing to do with getting healthy!0 -

I've looked at past journals that have done studies on this....and the conclusion from all is that: It is not the drops/shots that make you lose weight....but the 500 calorie diet.0

Wow...that was awhile ago, and this thread is still open! Why aren't they shutting this promotion of healthy ideas down! And especially when there are people trying to sell this crap!0 -

Does it really take a genius to figure this out? No kidding your gonna lose weight eating only 500 calories a day. What are you gonna do when you start eating Normal again? Cuz if you don't change your lifestyle.....it's all coming back!0 -
almost every thread I have seen about HCG has been "removed" it is not welcome here on this "FITNESS" site. This one will be gone soon too......0

It depends on where you get the drops! However, my mom went on this with two of her friends and all 3 were very strict with the diet; being very careful of what they were eating, etc. During the second week, her friend passed out from doing some farm work! My mom did lose 25 pounds, gained it all back too. It's not sustainable and it is very dangerous. What kind of diet prohibits you from exercising???0
