Spying On Chad: Homeopathic HCG Weight Loss Diet Plan, Day 1

Monday, September 13th, 2010

Chad is a pretty normal kind of guy. And this particular normal kind of guy is sick and tired of “wanting” to lose weight. He just wants to do it and stop thinking about it. So  he’s decided to undergo a homeopathic HCG weight loss diet plan.

And in addition to deciding to diet…he’s going to let us watch his progress. We’ll be getting daily updates so we’ll be able to see just how much weight Chad loses and how he does it.

On Day 1 Chad weighed in at 241.5 pounds.

All of Day 1 and Day 2 are loading days. On loading days dieters are expected to eat as much as they can aiming at high calorie and high fat. They also start taking their oral homeopathic HCG weight loss remedy drops three times per day.

After he weighed himself on Day 1 Chad went ahead and took his .4 units of homeopathic HCG weight loss remedy (oral drops). He attempted to reach for fatty, high calorie foods all day (breakfast, lunch and dinner). He’d never felt so full before in his life which means that he probably did the “loading” process correctly.

Of course, Chad normally eats far less than he did on Day 1 so he felt stuffed all day; it was quite uncomfortable for him. But that’s normal on a loading day. It means that he did it right.

Chad figured the first two “loading” days would be really easy, but they weren’t nearly as easy as he thought. He had to actually try to reach for the high fat, high calorie foods by the end of the day. He had a bit of trouble falling asleep that night, but did sleep very well once he drifted off.

To make sure that he remembered to weigh himself first thing in the morning Chad set a notebook out on his nightstand to record his daily weight.

“Cheap HCG” – Not Always a Good Deal

Tuesday, March 9th, 2010

There are many reasons why “cheap HCG” is not really so cheap – and may even get you into trouble. At best, you are taking a substantial risk by purchasing one of these HCG diet kits online, particularly those offering a supply a syringes.

There is nothing wrong with taking HCG injections of course – provided that you are getting these from a doctor who is qualified to do so. It is also best to have this done through a licensed HCG clinic.

HCG Kits From Overseas – Not a Good Idea

The last thirty years has seen a wholesale export of U.S. industry to low-wage countries in the name of “profits” and “cheap goods.” As shoddy, poorly-made products flood U.S. markets however, this has turned bitter in the mouths of consumers whose jobs have disappeared and are left with items that are of low-quality and likely to wear out after a year.

Likewise, HCG made overseas is very likely to be of poor quality – and may not be HCG at all. If it is, it may be expired or even tainted in some way that could threaten your health. The reason is that the labs that manufacture HCG in most foreign countries are not regulated in any way. In many cases, it is made in someone’s back bedroom or basement.

A fair number of these websites are outright scam operations as well. There are many people who sent in their money and received nothing in return. It is usually impossible to get your money back from these “fly-by-night” operations.

Finally, there is the issue of the injections. Many patients – mainly Type I diabetics – learn to inject themselves. It is still painful, however, and besides – you legally need a prescription from a licensed physician in order to possess needle syringes.

Oral HCG Drops – A Better Alternative

You will definitely pay more for homeopathic HCG, but the added cost is worth it in terms of peace of mind and the assurance that you are getting full value for your money. This means that you are receiving a product that will do what it is supposed to do in terms of aiding your weight loss efforts on the 500-calorie diet.

Homeopathic HCG is made in the U.S. at licensed laboratories that must meet stringent requirements in terms of who is allowed to work there and meeting product quality standards.

Check Carefully

Regardless of where you buy HCG, it makes sense to investigate your sources. Examine the company’s website carefully. Is there -

  • an actual, physical address (and not just a P.O. box)?
  • a phone number where you can speak with a real, live human being?
  • a Better Business Bureau Online seal and does this link take you to a website where you can check out the company’s ratings?
  • an e-mail address consistent with the website address?

If so, chances are good that it is a reliable company.

It may also be worth your while to check out some online HCG forums and find out what other users of this remedy have to say.

What You Should Know About “Cheap HCG”

Friday, March 5th, 2010

The fact is that “cheap” HCG – such as is advertised on numerous Internet sites – might not be the bargain you think it is. In fact, it may wind up being harmful.

HCG Diet Kits From Overseas

One thing you will see a great deal of online are adds for “full HCG diet kits” that include syringes. These are a bad idea for a number of reasons, not the least of which is quality issues. Labs in these countries are poorly regulated and often consist of a back alley operation with no safety or quality controls at all. The HCG that comes from such sources may be tainted.

At the very least, it will probably have expired by the time it’s delivered, assuming you receive it at all. (If you don’t, you may have little or no recourse in getting your money back.)

But, let us assume that you do receive your HCG supply. First of all, legally you must have a doctor’s prescription in order to possess needle syringes. Secondly, what you get is not a ready-to-use HCG solution, but a powder that must be mixed with sterile water in precise amounts, carefully measured into the syringe, then injected into your arm or leg – three times a day.

Not a pleasant prospect, is it?

Why Oral HCG Drops Are Better

They cost a bit more, but domestically-produced homeopathic HCG drops are a much better deal – and a much safer product.

This is not to say that you shouldn’t check out the manufacturer thoroughly before you buy. Due diligence is always called for when buying any product. However, U.S.-made, homeopathic oral HCG drops are manufactured under strict quality controls in laboratories subject to FDA regulation and oversight.

What To Look For

The manufacturer from whom you purchase your HCG should have a physical address that is easily available on the website, and this should not simply be a P.O. Box. In addition, contact information should include a telephone number, and any e-mail address should be consistent with the website. In other words, if the company domain is “XYZHomeopathics.net” and the e-mail address is “XYZInfo@Hotmail.com,” it’s a pretty good bet that the company is not legitimate.

In addition, there should be some verifiable client testimonials as well as some professional business associations (i.e., Better Business Bureau Online) that you can check out. Finally, consider networking with others who have been on the HCG diet in an online forum and learn from them.

“Cheap HCG” Can Be Expensive

Saturday, February 27th, 2010

There is a certain amount of truth to the old saw, “You get what you pay for.” There are a lot of websites out there that are offering “cheap HCG,” but a little detective work will often reveal that such HCG diet kits are no bargain. They may even be hazardous to your health.

Where Those HCG Kits Come From

It is no secret that the wholesale export of American industry has resulted in a flood of cheap consumer goods. It is becoming all too apparent that 99% of these products are shoddy and of low quality, unlikely to last more than a year or two. This is unlike the way things were prior to the 1980s, when “Made in the USA” was a label not only of pride, but of quality. Such products were built to last.

Those days are gone and unlikely to return. The same could be said about HCG; those cut-rate “kits” that you find for sale online are made in Mexico, China or Indonesia, where there are few regulations and even fewer quality controls when it comes to homeopathic remedies.

The HCG made in these countries is likely to be expired by the time you receive it (assuming you receive it at all). Even worse, it could be tainted and actually harmful. Unfortunately, you would have little recourse in such cases.

The other issue to keep in mind is that it is illegal in the U.S. for an individual to have needle syringes in their possession without a valid doctor’s prescription. Anyway, do you really want to go to the time and trouble of mixing your own HCG solution and sticking yourself with a needle every day?

How much is your time and comfort worth?

The Oral Drops Alternative

While they may represent a more expensive product, oral HCG drops made in U.S. laboratories are a much better alternative. (There are also HCG injections made in the U.S., but these are only available by prescription through a registered weight loss or fertility clinic.)

Individuals can order HCG drops freely from many reliable sources. However, even in this case, some due diligence is called for; no matter how nice the website looks, you should definitely investigate the company thoroughly before ordering.

What To Look For

The first thing to check is whether or not the company has a physical address (a brick and mortar location, not simply a P.O. Box) and a telephone number. In addition, the e-mail contact information should be consistent with the business’ Internet domain. Avoid any HCG dealer with a “hotmail” or similar address.  This usually means there is something to hide.

You should also be able to find consumer feedback and testimonials about the company online. This brings us to one of the best ways to find a reliable source for quality HCG: online forums. Many others have discovered the power of HCG; you owe it to yourself to network with these people and take advantage of the experience they have to share.
