I have two friends recently tell me they've been on the HCG Diet Program and have lost a lot of weight. It used to be a diet with injections, but now they use homeopathic drops.
I don't know all the details but from what I've read, it's done in short duration, like 26 days, then you take a break. You also eat like 500 calories a day!!! Like I said, I haven't read the details, but it all seems extreme to me, yet the temptation of losing weight like that is so enticing! But I want HEALTH first no matter what and I don't want to lose my 100lbs fast cause I'll end up tripping over my belly skin when I walk and I can't afford plastic surgery! LOL
I know, HV, that you don't like extreme diets or restrictive diets. But I want to know more about this one, how it works, how it works in the body, why the weight drops so fast, more about the drops, Human Chorionic Gonadotropin, a hormone produced by the placenta during pregnancy.
Has anyone had any experience with it or know anyone who has done it? I guess I'm looking for all the information because the info 'out there' is about 50/50 for and against it.
