Is this diet OK for people who just want to lose 10 to 15 pounds? Or is that not recommended.

Yes it is!! You can do a 27 day round... You can do it even if you have 5lbs to lose... it is a modified version, but the nice thing is it helps in reshapping your body and redistributing fat more evenly. This is why despite only being down 24lbs I'm down nearly 6 sizes.

Really??? Hmmmmm......I want to lose about 7-10lbs., but more importantly, I want to lose 3 inches off my waist. I think I have to look into this diet. Thanks, Pooka! I did a search and so many sites came up. Pooka, where is a reliable place I can look into about this diet?

I am proud to say I am down 26lbs now... I can officially say this is the most I've ever lost and I am back to pre-baby number 2 weight... Another 10lbs and I'll be back at pre-baby number 1.... that is my next small goal towards the big goal of a total of - 86lbs .

I may have Flint take pictures today or tomorrow... I was to horrified t otake before pics... didn't really want those floating around... call me vain.

So I'm confused/curious. How are you taking the HCG and how often? How much does it cost? Which areas do you feel the fat is being taken from, or is it a pretty uniform thing? (I understand fat gained during pregnancy and breast-feeding and immediately after is prone to end up in certain places and wondered if this was also a factor here -do you lose more or less from those areas or is that irrelevant (I think thighs and hips are two of the main areas))

I am taking sublingual drops because I hate needles.... I was taking 6 drops 6 times a day, but the new HCG only requires me to take 10 drops 3 times a day 30 minutes before eating.

The price varies... to give you an example... one of my friends is going to a clinic for injections... she was charges $1,400. Another bought the homeopathic drops at a health food store and pays $22/ bottle. The health food store near me charges $140 for a different brand same amount. I just ordered 45 day supply through an onling pharmacy for $70...

The homeopathic sublingual, Rx sublingual, and Rx injections are supposedly of equal effectiveness... but from what I've been told the RX does a better job of evenly distributing the fat and then the loss as well as tightening the skin... I am about to find out if that is true for myself. It supposedly redistributes fat evenly across your body as well as causing the fat loss... thsi is why some women who are of a healthy weight, but have disproportionate fat deposites in some areas will do what is called a re-shapping round. It is also why you lose fat and inches, but not always simultaneously... I have experienced days where I followed the diet perfectly, but saw no weight loss yet noticed pants that were to tight a few days ago suddenly fit perfectly.

As for the fat loss it honestly has been fairly even which is great...

That's really interesting thanks. Are your drops homeopathic or RX? That $1,400 vs $22 is mindboggling.

It is indeed... we haven't been able to figure out why there is such a discrepancy... other than people think they have to go to a clinic... and the clinics mark up the costs dramatically. They are not doing any more for her... in fact I found her to be less informed and the materials they supplied her with are not all according to Dr. simeons protocol... she has lost 37lbs, but she started in April... I started 36 days ago and am down 26lbs... I have followed the protocol in Pounds and Inches as precisely as possible.

I am taking the homeopathic version... I will be starting the RX as soon as I have time to mix it... it arrives in powder form and you have to mix it with colloidal silver and B12... it is fairly simple.

Thanks! I should point out that I'm 5 ft 1 in tall... and am aiming for 110lbs which is height weight proportionate for me. When I started I was 196.5 lbs. I am down to 168 lbs here. I will try to post updates every 10lbs or so.
