subject: Ditching HCG Injections For Weight Loss [print this page] You know, my sister tried the HCG injections for weight loss. She'd heard fabulous things. She's an Army wife so she has to deal with the ups and downs of her husband deploying and then coming home for leave and then leaving again and then coming home to be reassigned. It's a roller coaster ride and one of the things that she finds goes up and down like a roller coaster for many in her situation is weight.
Weight is all consuming when it comes to stress and fear and depression for a lot of people. There are those lucky few out there who respond to stress by losing weight. They can't seem to eat. Or everything they eat seems to just disappear like magic and they unreasonably drop chunks of weight because they are stressed out of their minds.
But for most people who live their lives with frequent bouts of stress or frustration or mild depression or even just plain old fear...weight is the first indication that things aren't going as well as we hope.
In response to one very long, very stressful deployment my sister's weight had gone up substantially. Her husband was in a dangerous area and was leading missions he wasn't allowed to tell her about until they were completed. He wasn't allowed to keep in daily contact and she was (to put it mildly) a very unhappy army wife.
And then they told her he was going to be home for a 6 week leave. And they told her that he was coming home for this leave only 3 weeks in advance. (They do this a lot...after she explained to me that it's all about keeping the soldiers safe in transit by not publishing their travel schedules in advance I stopped thinking it was just plain cruel).
This left her giddy that he was coming home. But at the exact same time she was absolutely freaked out! She had planned on losing the pounds she had put on before she saw him again and she only had a few weeks. She had no idea what she was going to do. She called a friend and by the end of the day she had an answer.
The very next day she started HCG injections for weight loss. She stuck to it for 1 week. It's not that she has a lack of willpower. She runs a household and takes care of 4 boys while her husband is at war, for goodness sake. There was just one problem. It was too dang expensive!
This was very upsetting for her because the HCG injections for weight loss were working. So she got online and did something that she does very well...she researched. And she found an amazing solution: homeopathic HCG weight loss formula. It said that it offered the same results as the HCG injections for weight loss without the injections, the prescription or the doctors. And because of all this...it came with a much smaller price tag. Problem solved.
To make a long story short...she lost 6 pounds the first week while she was on HCG injections for weight loss. But she lost 16 pounds in the two weeks following while she was on the homeopathic HCG weight loss formula. Her husband came home for his leave and she was so excited to see him that she forgot to even worry about the fact that she still had a couple pounds to lose (3 to be exact).
