Please help! Haven't lost any weight on HCG injections
 

Hello everyone,

I've read on here before that some of you are having problems and well, I am too. I'm going on my 4th week of HCG injections and I haven't lost a single pound! I have slowly been losing body fat pounds and replacing it with muscle pounds because i am exercising as well. I'm only 22 and I have always an athletic girl...soccer, track, cycling, and i'm in the gym once sometimes even twice a day. About a year and a half ago all of a sudden i went from 120 to 138 out of no where. My already healthy eating habits have never changed, i occasionally have a few drinks here and there and fast food every once in a while. Before I started HCG i tried every diet in the book that swore they worked and nothing! So i go to this physician wellness center over by where i live and wanted to give it a go since my friend was very successful on it but now after strictly following guidelines even HCG injections arent working. I'm beginning to worry, is there something wrong with my body, should i be concerned, my bloodwork came back perfectly fine but could i have a disease..etc!? Even The physicians at this wellness center can't even give me an answer....it almost seems like they don't care and just want the money. Well i told them after spending 300 dollars they weren't going to get another dime out of me because of course, like anyone else who would keep going when its not working after 3 weeks! I don't understand. I am eating 500 calories a day even that alone should make someone lose a few pounds...anyone out there to help me? I also don't know what kind of hcg i'm using..until reading some of these other blogs i didn't even know there were other 'brands' i guess you could say. Any suggestions would really help! thank you!

What dosage are you injecting? What is a typical day's diet for you? Is it TOM? Are you hungry?

The shots alone will not make you lose an ounce. Maybe if you could offer a little more info, someone could help you figure this out. A lot of these clinics aren't very helpful in doing anything but helping your pocketbook to lose weight.

You mention working out and losing body fat but building muscle. To me, this sounds ideal. Are you taking measurements? You must be smaller since muscle is more dense than fat. You might actually be at your ideal weight!

You cannot add muscle eating 500kcal/day. It's just an impossibility.

From your brief history (weight appearing out of nowhere, occasional alcohol, occasional fast food, etc) me thinks you need more control over what goes in and when as well as keeping a detailed log

We've seen people gain muscle on the protocol, bicster. You need to Read Pounds and Inches. She isn't only living on 500 calories when the hcg is working properly.

what is being noticed is a loss of fat, making underlying muscles appear larger/better defined. increases on the scale are most likely due to associated fluid retention from weight lifting.

the only way to build muscle is to be in an anabolic state. 500kcal with or without hcg does not get you there.

You clearly don't understand the protocol.

107lbs lost disagree with you

I'm just saying we have seen people tested on this protocol and they gained muscle according to the most accurate scans to test. And you are a guy maybe? I'm talking about women which is who we see most often on here.

If you truly have real hcg, you'd be losing 1 lb a day the first 10 days approximately if you followed the protocol to a T - change your brand or change your system, shots, pellets or drops a few of the choices, all the best , Zell
