HCG Clinic Certification Through TrimYou is the Only Way To Go
February 22, 2009
If you are looking for a clinic or doctor that provides the hCG Diet and want to be sure you are getting real, natural hCG (not synthetic) from a U.S.-based pharmacy, and the clinic staff sticks to Dr. Simeons’ original protocol, be sure to ask if the clinic is TrimYou Certified.
This organization provides training and certification in Dr. Simeons’ original HCG Diet Protocol to doctors and clinic staff and makes sure you are getting the real deal.

Homeopathic hCG - Another Diet Scam
February 11, 2009
IMPORTANT UPDATE: Since I wrote the following post, someone has proven me wrong. Read about Homeotherapeutic HCG!
________________________________________
Let’s get something straight right off the bat: There is no such thing as Homeopathic HCG - so if you are using it instead of REAL hCG on Dr. Simeons hCG Diet Protocol and are losing weight, it is because of the 500 calorie diet.
This means muscle is being lost, you are starving yourself, and will not enjoy permanent weight loss because your metabolic set point is not affected (you aren’t taking hCG!)
HCG is a HORMONE - so what the heck is homeopathic hCG? I’ll tell you - snake oil.
Anyone can lose weight on a 500 calorie per day diet, but without real hCG you are losing muscle and structural fat. You will end up in a yo yo diet cycle as your body makes adjustments for the reduced caloric intake by slowing its metabolism. Your weight loss will be short-lived, and you will put the weight back on with a vengeance.
Look: The hCG Diet works, but it works FOR A REASON, which is the effect that hCG has on your hypothalmus and other regulartory glands and systems (that, frankly, isn’t well understood).
Anyone selling Homeopathic hCG is a snake-oil salesman and if you are losing weight, or have lost weight with it congratulations, but don’t be surprised when you put all the weight back on.
Using real, natural hCG has the effect of burning ABNORMAL FAT while on the very low calorie diet and RESETTING YOUR METABOLISM when you finish Phase III of the diet protocol.
Do you think Homeopathic hCG works? Sound off below…
Don’t Do the HCG Diet Until You’ve Done This First!
January 30, 2009
The HCG Diet works like nothing else, but it is a solution of last resort for people that have a serious problem with their weight due to metabolic imbalances.
Instead of injecting HCG as a first step, this should be the last step in the battle of the bulge. Granted, it will work, but it isn’t without ANY risk.
Therefore, BEFORE TRYING THE HCG DIET, read and implement the following little-known weight loss secrets (they’re FREE):

If you can’t lose the weight by doing the steps outlined at the above page, the HCG Diet is for you.

hCG Diet Failures
January 2, 2009
Some claim that the hCG Diet is 100% effective, and others claim it doesn’t work at all and it’s a scam. What are we to make of those that say they are hCG Diet Failures, and using hCG for weight loss didn’t work for them?
We have researched and documented extensively that those making claims that the hCG Diet is a scam are simply wrong. You can read a great post about it here:
hCG Info - Just the Facts, Please!
So when people say the hCG Diet didn’t work for them, that they did NOT achieve success with the hCG Diet, what went wrong?
First off, there are 2 kinds of hCG weight loss failures:
- Not losing SIGNIFICANT weight with the hCG Diet
- Not keeping the weight off AFTER the hCG Diet
Let’s address #1:
Nobody would be interested in taking hCG injections for weight loss and adhering to a 500 calorie diet if it wasn’t DRAMATICALLY effective. If you want to lose 1-2 lbs. per week, there are a lot of ways to do that, and if you are looking into the hCG Diet, you have most likely TRIED all of these methods (eating sensibly, exercise, weight lifting, etc.)
The appeal of the hCG Diet is the RAPID fat loss that is achieved - 5-10 lbs. per week is common (yeah, you read that correctly).
So when someone starts on the hCG Diet and does NOT achieved fast weight loss, this is considered an hCG Diet Failure.
What went wrong? Here’s a list of top reasons someone might not achieved great results with the hCG Diet:
- Cheating (you know who you are)
- Not drinking enough water
- Using sub-standard hCG from questionable sources
- Taking an Oral or Sublingual form of hCG instead of injections
- Not following Dr. Simeons original protocol (you can get a free copy of his book ‘Pounds and Inches’ on our website)
The other group of hCG Diet Failures are those that lost the weight with the hCG Diet but failed to keep it off (see #2 above).
Since the hCG Diet is touted as a ‘CURE‘ for dieting - it resets the metabolism and ends the need to diet EVER AGAIN - if one doesn’t PERMANENTLY keep the weight off with the hCG Diet, that would be a failure.
So why do some people fail to keep the weight off and enjoy the benefits of the hCG Diet Cure?
Here is the top reason (and maybe the ONLY reason):
Not following Dr. Simeons original program that REQUIRES eating a low/no-carb diet for 3 weeks after completing the hCG Protocol
Some clinics sell hCG weight loss programs along with Vitamin B-12 injections, colon cleansing regiments, etc. because they fail to follow the original protocol developed over 60 years ago by Dr. Simeons.
They are doing their patients/customers a disservice and causing needless failures with the hCG Diet. Sticking to the original protocol by Dr. Simeons guarantees success. This means one MUST:
- Use hCG injections where the hCG purity is guaranteed and not synthetic or of questionable quality
- Drink lots of water
- Load up on fat and calories at the beginning of the protocol
- Stick to the Very Low Calorie Diet (VLCD) without cheating
- After completing the injection cycle, eating a low/no carb diet for 3 weeks to permanently ‘reset’ the metabolism so one cures oneself from the need to ever diet again
Failure to follow the above will result in either sub-optimal results or hCG Diet Failures.
Truthfully, many people cheat and still lose a ton of weight, so if cheating is something you plan to do, you will still achieve remarkable results (only not AS remarkable!)
