So I just watched a segment on my local news talking about how a diet clinic nearby is offering a new diet option of pregnancy hormone shots (HCG) to help people lose weight. Both men and women have lost weight doing it. They are one a very strict 500 calorie a day diet but because of the shots they don't feel hungry or over eat. They lose about 1/2 to 1 pound a day!
The Dr at the clinic even said that afterwards the hypothalamus is reset to make is think a lower body weight is "normal". To help the body stay at a lower weight.
Read about the story here and tell me what you think. I am very interested. I have been really sick with what my Dr's are think is some sort of Auto Immune Disease since I had my last baby and I just can not lose this weight!! At my last appointment we even talked about Cushings Disease. So if I can't get a diagnosis and start losing weight... I would TOTALLY be interested in giving this a shot. I feel so desperate at this point.
What do you think? (About the HCG weight lose option, not about me feeling desperate.)

This is interesting to say the least. It sounds like a "too good to be true" type of deal, but if it works like it says, that's pretty dang cool. I read the article and while it says you don't "feel" hungry, it seems you are basically starving yourself and hence the reason you lose so fast. I mean anyone is gonna lose weight like that eating only 500 calories a day. That's nothing! I don't know, I'd probably wait if it were me to see more research done on it, but then again, if you are desperate. . . go for it :)
