my wife wants to try the Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG) diet

[Mrs P]

I agree I have a sister 5 years older than me 6 foot 360 pounds easy she tried the diet lost 60 but within a few weeks it was back bc she said it was to hard to not eat things like junk and workout. In the end she and I don't talk bc I kept my lifestyle and she couldn't... Its true you have to want it!!!!

I hear you Girl, That's great that you lost the weight & have kept it off !!
and yes, you have to want it, doesn't matter how many people tell u to make a life change, the only person that can make that decision & make it happen is you.

its not different in that regard. Its just nonsense. 99% of people who try this will be fad dieters and will gain back any weight they lost because they are looking for a shortcut. like i said, getting fit is about lifestyle change, not 500 calories and powder from womens piss and a measley 500 calories.

And if i ever heard a man say they couldn't eat 500 calories in one meal, much less one day... they would immediately be stripped of their man card.

Because everyone's body responds to the same stimuli as EVERYONE else, right?
That's condescending, that 99% of people that try this will gain the weight back. Do you think that someone who is obese would want to stick themselves with a needle and inject a hormone that is secreted from the urine of a pregnant women into their body because they want to lose weight? Is that a normal occurrence now a days?
Since you haven't researched this particular diet, the 500 calories is from two meals not one, First meal 250 calories, second meal 250 calories.

you're missing the point. i never said it would work, i said its stupid to do just like any other fad diet. Just not responsible health-wise.

And i don't know what kind of show you're doing, but unless you weigh 58lbs, 800 calories is not smart. i don't care if you're a competitor. So is my wife, and she eats a helluva lot more than that.

Getting fit and staying fit is about overall health. Not taking shortcuts.

Your missing the point, to my statement of the "short cut" was your response to this specific diet. People who have done this cannot deny the results, many people have posted their success in other forums. Or is everything on the internet a lie?

You may consider gear a shortcut. i don't. because i know what it takes to gain and maintain muscle the right way, without gear, unlike most on these boards who jump into gear and like you just said, can't seem to keep gains. You know why? Cause they are looking for a shortcut.

And that is why this diet sucks.

Plenty of fad diets work, but most suck because they are unhealthy or lack the ability to maintain the weight loss they provide... usually in a short period of time.

So please don't lump the people like me who bust our ass for the physiques we've built with proper nutrition and hardcore training (using gear as a tool to go beyond natural limits) in with you and others.

Never did I mention in my post that gear is a shortcut, Steroids are a means to pushing your body past its natural limits, yes, so why would dieting be any different?
Now as far as healthy, if you read my post all the way through, I was talking about how steroid users need to take Aromatase inhibitor (AI), PCT, for their use of a "cycle" is that consider healthy? Why would we even need to take these DRUGS in the first place?
And now that you mentioned the gains and maintaining the right way (without steroids), since you don't walk the path of the "natural bodybuilding warrior" don't knock what other people think is right for them. Not a single person has ever died from this diet or had any complications after wards if followed correctly, just like steroids.

is that a normal occurence to look for a shortcut via a fad diet? Yes, every fucking day, especially obese people.

Your missing the point, to my statement of the "short cut" was your response to this specific diet. People who have done this cannot deny the results, many people have posted their success in other forums. Or is everything on the internet a lie?

i don't care if they have gotten results. I'm not saying it doesn't work. What i'm saying is it requires a lifetstyle change to STAY fit. Losing weight is easy. Keeping it off is another thing. Fad diets are shortcuts. Shortcuts are not good.

Never did I mention in my post that gear is a shortcut, Steroids are a means to pushing your body past its natural limits, yes, so why would dieting be any different?

you didn't? what the fuck is this then?

You cant criticize others when everyone here is one way or another looking for a shortcut. I mean we are on a web site that talks about the use of anabolic steroids.

And comparing using steroids to grow to push past natty limits and dieting to do the same is just fucking stupid. That makes no sense.

Now as far as healthy, if you read my post all the way through, I was talking about how steroid users need to take Aromatase inhibitor (AI), PCT, for their use of a "cycle" is that consider healthy? Why would we even need to take these DRUGS in the first place?

Taking PCT drugs, or an Aromatase inhibitor (AI) is much more healthy than NOT taking it isn't it. So again, you make no sense.

And now that you mentioned the gains and maintaining the right way (without steroids), since you don't walk the path of the "natural bodybuilding warrior" don't knock what other people think is right for them. Not a single person has ever died from this diet or had any complications after wards if followed correctly, just like steroids.

When did i ever say anything about being natural? And i don't care what anyone does. The point on these boards is to give people options and answers to their questions. i gave my opinion. Like i always do. And i never said this stupid diet didn't work, quite the contrary, as most fad diets work short term. Its only the people who learn how to live a healthy LIFESTYLE that will maintain those lost pounds.

Speed3,

Sorry I didn't mean to hijack your thread.

I want to say I did two rounds of this 2 years ago lost 40 pounds total and have kept the weight off it was just what I needed to get my butt back in the gym. Yes its hard and you have to plan everything out. No going out to eat no cheating on a small piece of candy. But if its something she really wants she will do. But when you cheat you will tell and it slows down your process. Yes 500 is crazy, and hard. But anyone who competes think about this. I am now getting ready for my first show, and really I eat around 800 cals mostly protein some greens. So everyone who is saying that Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG) is super stupid and not real it is. People who compete when it comes down to 6 weeks out what do you really eat for 40 days? On top of our crazy workouts and cardio? Its just like Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG) but with the Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG) drug it takes the edge off of eating 500 cals. If she would like to talk to someone please PM me. I hope all is well.

The won't let mensend you a pm. Can you please send me an email to Rcoombz@gmail.com? My wife has some questions about the diet and younwouldbbe a great person to help her out. Thank you in advance and please help me out if you don't mind!
