hcg, slim fast, slimquick

Options
Has anyone ever tried those? What are your reviews about them or thoughts? I am trying really hard to lose some pounds, I have 4 kids and recently had back surgery so I have to take things a bit slower. I have been going to the gym 3-4 times a week and trying to watch my calorie intake. I have a habit of going straight to food when I am just sitting watching tv or whatever so I was thinking maybe slimfast would help block out my hunger so I dont rely on it. Im at 165 (i just gained 4 pounds in a week, UGH!) and really need to find something to help me out!

    I wouldn't rely on anything but eating right and exercise. HCG has been known to mess up your body in the long run. Slim fast isn't that great for you but, I like to make low calorie milkshakes with it or drink it every once in a while for a quick breakfast. Slimquick I don't know much about. The only supplement I have ever taken is caffeine pills before the gym and limit it through out the day so im not sick!

    My sister took HCG and loss weight, but she hasn't kept it off and she has developed health problems. Before the HCG, she had never been sick a day in her life.
