WWW.HCGPROTOCOL.COM - kits at REASONABLE PRICES. I just started a site that sells kits for the hCG diet protocol - by spreading out the shipping charges I can usually offer them cheaper than you can order them directly. Even if you don't order, check out the nostalgia page & Link to 200 or so free recipes.

Thanks and best of luck!

I did what I'd consider a successful Body for Life (BFL) 12 week challenge back in 1999, the results were amazing to me... lost 35 lbs in a month, 65 lbs after 2, from 245 lbs to 180 lbs, went from a 42" waist to a 32 inch waist in 90 days - but after a back injury, when I couldn't do my core exercises, I packed it back on. If not for the back injury I'm sure I would have been living large for the past several years without BEING large.

Same with Adkins, good initial results, but ended up gaining all that I'd lost.

Simeons hCG protocol... the hCG diet claims to reset your hypothalmus, and unlike the informercial in which KT wildly boasts that he can eat whatever junk he wants every day & never gain a pound... in Pounds & Inches Simeons wants you to weigh yourself daily after finishing the injections on the hCG protocol & anytime you've gained more than 2 pounds over your target weight, you have to correct it (eliminating starches & fat until you lose the added pounds) So I won't know for several month just how true the set point claim is.

For me, trying the hCG protocol (www.hcgprotocol.com - save 30-60%) is in part hope that after it's said & done, I won't once again rebound.

Also - Body for Life (BFL) is HARD WORK. If comparable weight loss results can be obtained through a hormone & diet alone, many more people might be apt to try it.. & hopefully once the weight was reduced would add some exercise to their routine with their new found energy. (because as you know, a few pounds of added muscle mass dramatically increases your resting metobolic rate)




Another more global thought... is that there are morbidly obese people who are relatively immobile as well as those with injuries that make strenous exercise close to impossible. For those people, the hCG protocol seems tailor made, barring medical complications that would preclude them from participating.

But to my point - if you are able & willing to work out and eat clean, BFL might be a great choice. After being overweight for 20 years, it definitely opened my eyes to what is possible & how strong a connection there is between body & mind.

  • Delmem - I know that you probably get tired of answering questions, but I placed an order for HCG with Pharmacy Escrow. 2 months later, I asked for a refund because they still had not gotten the order to the U.S. Yesterday, I placed an order for HCG with All Day Chemist, now I'm worried. I ordered 10 premixed ampules. Is that ok. I asked what they were premixed with and they told me "water". Does that weaken the dosage? Should I be contacting them and ask them to send me the dry powder?

  • @blwishon Don't trust either of them for accurate info, the LAST time pharmacy escrow/drug delivery ca had ppl waiting 2 mo + for orders was when I found ADC out of necessity.

    The premie is mixed with aminos & a small sugar base to sustain potency. Feedback has been positive so far, but since it's new won't know if the 2 year shelf life claim is accurate, but then again, doubt anyone will be shelving any that long.

  • SO those shots u were injecting ur self with were a type of hormone? or was it an oil based muscle expander?

  • I did BFL back in '99 - the hCG protocol completely different, didn't start that until Oct 2007.

    I took nothing on BFL, just worked out and ate - and I actually don't think I ate enough on BFL as I lost a few pounds of muscle mass along with the fat. Presume I would have added a few pound of lean mass if I'd eaten more.

  • So.. did the "tan" come with the injections? lol.. I would have believed you more had you not shown up in your final picture 12 shades darker.

  • It's true - if you notice I was getting darker in the 2nd picture. Had read sunlight (UV) increases vitamin D and ALSO naturally increases testosterone, so I was hitting the tanning bed 3 times a week... just search "sunlight testosterone" and you should find the article.

    BTW - really glad you didn't mention anything about me shaving my chest - now THAT might have been embarrassing...

  • Great pics. I did BFL in 2000 and had good success also. Fast forward 10 years and many other diets... Now I'm doing HCG. Thanks so much for sharing.

  • @sunnyroses1 this is why phase 3 is so important, it helps reset the hypothalmus gland..you have to follow DR.S diet and all 3 phases exactly how he says to do it..you have to keep a close eye on the scale..anytime in phase 3 you go over 2 pounds youa re supposed to do a steak day..you ahve to figure out the amount of calories that work for you..

  • its impressive, cool!

  • I know you are on maintenance. I'm concern about the rebound possibilities.

    there are several celebs that have blown up like a balloon.(not knowing their diet program) Mamaclok said she gain roughly 20lb over a short period of time. my hope is that the reset button is real. Only time will tell. thanks for your sincere and  committed efforts.

  • guys, the BFL challenge is based on honesty. also, you have to register if you want to compete so the dates are binding. also, the newspaper shots are just to emphasise the duration of the challenge to other competitors or enthusiasts and are merely an embelishment to the progress shot.
