Tweetone of my fatass lazy friends tried this and while im sure he didn't follow it like he was suppose to it also didn't work. personally i think its crap.

TweetI agree with james. This diet requires that you only take in 500 calories a day! That is crazy and no wonder you lose weight, and mostly muscle mass at that. One would assume that after coming off this diet, you most likely will pack that weight back on.

Tweetbro, it's a stupid fade diet that is based on starving yourself. the doctor that started this diet decades ago even later came to realize it wasn't healthy and advised people NOT to do it.

Tweetwow....really? huh....well...i got a buddy who's hell bent on his wife doing it. he says he knows people who have done it and it worked great. i dont know why he didnt ask them, but i guess thats what he's gotta do

Tweetthink about it.... it's going to work because you only eat 500 cals a day. the hcg is suppose to help you maintain muscle mass while you are starving yourself but we know that hcg isn't strong enough to do that on 500cals. i liken the diet to someone getting stomach stapling or gastric band, all of those people lose fat due to being starved but alos lose a crazy amount of muscle.

as for your friends, if they need to do it this diet to lose weight then they should but it will be hard to keep the fat off without a real lifestyle change.

i just HATE the hcg diet and all these myths about it being healthy choice.

however i do wish your friends luck and strength because it still will be a rough road.

TweetFAD DIETS USUALLY DONT WORK FOR LONG- TRY CARB CYCLING - I PERSONALLY HAVE FOUND IT TO BE EASY TO DO AND EFFECTIVE FOR MOST

TweetSomeone I know tried this and like baby1 said....eat 500 calories and no shit you'll lose weight. First, doctors will tell you 500 calories is not even enough to provide normal brain function. Also, these hcg diet places are charging these women hundreds of dollars a month which most of us know is ludicrous seeing how cheap it is.
