If the HCG diet is such a miracle diet as so many members claim, why don't drs. ever suggest it?
Truth be told I am considering it, are there any long term health risks? Will it mess up my metabolism, thyroid or hormones?

My doctor DID tell me about this and I've been very successful. I'll link you to a vlog, she's been maintaining a 60 lb weight loss for almost 2 years and she has lots of issues with thyroid and lyme disease.
Losing the weight helped but did not eliminate the problems, but at least she's healthy and slim.

If you're serious about doing this then browse her channel and you'll find alot of instruction from someone experienced.

If you mean the OTC products, they are illegal in the US.

The HCG diet is a very low calorie diet -- 500 calories a day. As such, it can be dangerous, and should not be undertaken without medical supervision. Talk to your doctor.

I'm considering trying this too, OP. I really need to lose 100lbs but my body is fighting me all the way. I want to be thinner, but I'm scared of ruining my hormones. Looking forward to reading more replies.
