Hi.

Just wanted to post about my partner, who's now in P4 and HCG has been the best thing for her. We haven't looked on this site for a while, cause things have been going smoothly, and I just thought it'd be good to post, because sometimes it seems that once things are great people disappear from the forum, so it sometimes seems like lots of people are struggling.

My partner lost about 28 pounds on a 40 day round of SC HCG. It was hard at times, but she got through it. She had major hassles initially with stablising, but the best thing about this diet, is that she learned to listen to her body (and watch the scales for objective feedback) on what foods were good and bad for her. She had some major fluctuations, and has realised that she can't tolerate gluten, dairy or msg. Without those foods she stabilises perfectly, so she's just avoiding them. Still has them every now and then, but with a high protein day or two it comes back off fine.

The best thing has been that since working out her food intolerances (which have probably been there since she was young), her fatigue has gone away, her eyes aren't puffy anymore, she's no longer on metformin for pcos and she's got loads more energy.. and she's much happier. And she feels in control of her body and her weight. Before she just felt like everything was going wrong and she didn't know what to do about it.

So just wanted to post to say how great I think HCG is. It gets the weight off, acts as an elimination diet, and gives you objective feedback (via the scales) about what foods cause inflammation in your body. It really is amazing.
