Ok, First take a deep breath. I think it would help for you to have a general understanding of how the body gains and loses weight, and also what types of weight the body will gain and lose throughout the course of a day/week/year/lifetime. When you step on a scale it is a measurement of four components of your anatomy:…

Yes that is odd. Generally calories burned based on a HRM are directly related to the Heart Rate over a duration of time. For example, if a competitive runner ran two miles at a 8 min/mile pace his heart rate would remain lower throughout the exercise because he is in better shape than say someone else who needs to lose a…

I think the text book answer here is to eat little often. Extreme athletes and body builders eat according to the clock, like one of the previous posters had mentioned. If you are trying to build up serious muscle you have to fuel the body, however if you are looking to lose weight it is a different story altogether. The…

Yes send in the internet police. I think the guy was rude to begin with...regardless if it was uncalled for or not I would have absolutely no intentions of rescinding it.

Anyway, this the internet...since when did anyone have to prove anything they say...hell GNC has a whole product line and a store based on the concept of selling unvalidated and controversial supplements with absolutely no solid research to back the products claims.

I dont know what other people are buying but my HCG is synthetic. However, that isnt to say that the natural process is quite a bit more complicated then stating that someone is injecting themselves with pregnant females urine.

My recommendation would be to work through it and monitor its condition. Make sure you do some active stretching before your workouts and then some static stretching post workout. Also consider a nice hot bath with some epsom salt. I find that when my muscles are tore up (thats actually lactic acid getting into all those…

Most likely is from the very small and delicate muscles around your ribs seperating a bit from the actual rib...if you were to do a really hard weight lifting routine after not doing anything for a while your whole body would feel like that. I wouldnt worry about it too much, try using heat and ice and see if that makes it…

Yes because thats exactly what it is...in fact single moms who are pregnant and need money are actually brought into "pissing" clinics where they are paid by the ounce, it is sterilized and then we shoot it up, gives you a nice buzz...really dude? Saying that it is pregnant women piss is the equivalent of saying that…

Dont worry about that gained weight, even if you only lose five pounds that first week, dont worry about it, by the time that the round is over you will have lost way more than that 4 pounds. Keep us updated!!

Yes what an intelligently broad assertion.

Several double blind studies have found positive results for weightloss.

Yes thats why there are so many medical recalls. Remember when phen phen was an "approved" weight loss drug. That worked out well.

I believe that was in response to the sarcastic comment you made about the FDA not approving oxycodone for weight loss, and while your logic was understandable your faith in the FDA's intentions is laughable...but wait your turn I can only argue with one person at a time.

I was flagged for being overweight a couple years ago (and then quickly lost that extra weight to remove the flag because that is a big black mark that you dont want) and you have to see a nutritionist it is mandatory, but all a nutritionist does...at least our nutritionist is order a couple labs and then give you a class…

I havnt had great results doing it the "healthy way" since I basically put myself into an anorexic state through exercise in college. I also was a national level Nordic skier from the time I was 15 until the time I was about 19 (school didn't have a ski team so it got too expensive to keep up at that point). So I am sure…

I went back to a 2500 calorie diet because I am a 225 pound male that exercises on a daily basis and had absolutely no energy or life eating under 1400 calories. 1400 calories, with exercise is simply unsustainable for any significant amount of time without totally going into a starvation mode. At least for some one that…

I didnt answer your question because you said you thought I need psychiatric help...which I found kind of humerus. Two wars, several deployments, and lots of dead buddies later the Army definitely makes you see your fair share of quacks...whom by the way I think is big waste of government dollars...so no I don't have an…

Janesmith, Your making another broad assumption, that you are getting the same results "only better." How much are you exercising? Are you subtracting your exercised calories from your intake? You can still starve yourself by working off more calories than you are taking in, Are you getting your BF% checked regularly? Most…

Wow. Way to assume that the tracker is up to date, or that you know this person, their body or what they have tried. As a matter of fact you should probably write a book so we can apply what ever you did to the general public so everyone can be as successful as you. I just lost 32 in a month by doing HCG, then eating…

Here is an interesting article on just how much the FDA cares about you, the tax payer (you do pay taxes right?), that pays for their existence: http://www.bnet.com/blog/drug-business/fda-8220corruption-8221-letter-authenticated-lawyers-start-your-engines/4396 and another…

Yes because the FDA has never approved a drug that is very dangerous for even the prescribed use and then forced the manufacturer to issue a recall only months later after the damage has done, in which a class action lawsuit is filed, lawyers get rich, insurance companies cover the suit, and they settle out of court by…

Wow, sorry to hear you had that kind of experience. Your hormones were out of whack? Im curious which levels?

Fighting a losing battle with this crew Grokette (and thats alot coming from me), thats okay they can drink their kool-aid and think that the government does everything in their favor, and the drugs that are approved or not approved or even studied are not politically motivated and backed by big bucks at all....everyone on…

This is a losing battle. Your right Im wrong. If you cant see it or prove it scientifically, it isnt real. Happy?

I truly could care less that you do statistical analysis and quantitative data daily, I deal with real life people daily...whoopdie do. I didnt call you ignorant, I called you ignorant of the protocol, which I stand by my intitial statement. And Ill tell you why...because you didnt name it anti-HCG and there are people…

Yes but I have done it the other way and it didnt work for me. Why is that so hard for people to understand? If it was a scam then my total weight loss should have consisted much more of muscle mass, and much less of fat loss...why is that such a difficult concept for people to swallow?

No not at all that right there proves you are pretty ignorant on how HCG works.

Nobody is jumping down your throat but dont think Im not going to defend the other side of this with verocity either.

Sugar is definately a SEVERE addiction, to those that are truly addicted. Just like hard drugs you are destroying your body and ignoring all the warning signs. No adult should ever develop diabetes except maybe in some very rear cases. Knowing that you are killing your body and giving yourself an incurable disease is a…
