My Review
I have been taking 125 iu/day HCG injections for one week, but still quite hungry. Had to cheat and eat cheese and bread....was in a horrible mood...PMS times 5. Worst part is that my breasts swelled up and the left one is hurting soooo bad. I could tell definite changes were occurring within my breast tissue. I stopped the injections 3 days ago and got my period today, but last night I had so much uterine pain that I nearly went to the hospital. I won't resume this diet. Although I did lose 1.2 pound initially, I had to cheat and gained it right back. My body really thought it was pregnant and the aspect of not feeling hungry didn't work for me.
Did you successfully lose weight on this diet?
NoPros for Thyroid Patients?
The side effects outweigh the benefits in my case.
Cons for Thyroid Patients?
The hunger was still overwhelming.
