  • I'm going to try this!

    Hello!
    I'm Jessica. I'm 20 years old and currently weight 132 pounds. (I'm only 5'3 and I carry it all in my stomach). In November I started the oral HCG diet followed by Dr. Simeons protocol. I started at 135 got down to 118 pounds in 23 days. I didn't follow the no starch/carb no sugar "maintenance phase" which resulted in me gaining my weight back! I decided to do it again and just couldn't stick to the exact protocol. (If you've never heard of HCG, its a hormone that you take orally or inject it. You also must eat a strict 500 calorie diet with VERY SPECIFIC food choices. You can't even use lotions/shampoos/deodorants with oil in it. Everything is organic and if you even just have a little bit of something you aren't supposed to, you will instantly gain. ) Although you do see dramatic results, it was so emotional for me to restrict myself from food. I would go on crazy binges and end up gaining 5 pounds overnight which was too upsetting to me. I think my body hates starch and sugar which is why the diet worked so good when I did it correctly.

    With that being said, I decided I would try Atkins because it is sort of similar to HCG (limited carbs and no sugar) BUT it is not AS strict as the HCG protocols are.

    I start tomorrow. Wish me luck and watch me shrink!

    Good luck. I have several in law family members on the HCG program right now. One SIL and I started our seperate diets about the same time. So far we have lost about the same amount of weight. But I guarantee I have enjoyed myself a lot more than she has. I can actually eat LOL
