And, yes, for some people creams make an inexplicable difference in weight loss.
He is not promoting an eating disorder. The point of this temporary diet (with the HCG - you CAN'T do this protocol without the HCG) is to reset the hypothalamus.
Anyway, I was really excited that I have not cheated and I have lost weight and I feel great and I am healthier than I have been in YEARS. But, thanks for depressing me. I thought the people here were my friends. Guess not. I would hate to think that something like this would make me not come back here. |
I think you're being dramatic.
I just wanted to point out what this guy says as "truth". Asking you to skip 2 meals (on your already restrictied diet) if you're 2 pounds over is not what I call healthy. Letting you know that you might get low blood sugar and to carry candy around, is not healthy. Allowing you to have only as much as an apple if you're underweight, is not healthy.
I don't know what this guy is selling, but I think this could cause you more severe problems later down the road.
Sure the immediate return of weight loss seems great, but the way he is going about it is not healthy.
I'm not saying that YOU have an eating disorder, but I really do believe that this guy has created a diet for a dramatic weight loss that is not good for you body and can create eating disorders in those who are succeptible. I really do believe that this weight loss method is not the answer to obesity.
While I would love to lose 1 pound a day, I know that that is impossible on a regular HEALTHY regimen of diet and exercise unless you're like 400 pounds and on the Biggest Loser! OR have had your stomach stapled because you're obese.
I don't trust this diet, and would love to see a study on long term effects.
Please don't leave this site over this, but understand where we're coming from and it is merely
CONCERN ABOUT YOUR HEALTH and those who are thinking of embarking in this ridiculous diet.
If this diet was really doctor approved, it'd be recommended by doctors.
