2. My hCG Before and After Stats
New updated before and after hCG photo above! I just completed my 5th round of hCG in
October 2012. I have now lost 54 pounds with the hCG diet and cut my body fat in HALF. I
now only have 21 lbs of fat on my body and have the body fat percent of an athlete! And if
anyone's wondering, yes, I am a REAL person. I've been married for 12 years to my best friend
and we have a 3 year old son (whom you'll see make "guest appearances" in some of my youtube
videos- subscribe so you don't miss those!) named Nolan.
I'm currently 118 pounds and 17.9% bodyfat. That's considered to be in the "athlete" level for
body fat percent by the way, according to the ACE bodyfat percent chart.
The Long Version of my hCG Diet Story
My journey with hCG began in February 2011 when I was doing yet more research online
regarding my autoimmune condition called Hashimoto's, basically where my body attacks my
own thyroid and gradually destroys it. I had been ill several years without knowing why, and
finally after getting a diagnosis, got some of my life back by taking thyroid medication, in the
3. form of Cytomel (also known as T3 or active thyroid hormone...but that's another story).
However, not all things were as they used to be pre-illness. I continued to struggle in many ways
with my health and weight. My eating habits had gone downhill because of my depression over
losing the active person I could no longer be. I became addicted to sugar. While researching this
particular issue with sugar and looking at anti-yeast and candida diets, I saw someone ask a
question on a forum- it said "does the hcg really work for weightloss?" or something to that
effect.
I had never heard of the hCG diet, so with interest I clicked on the thread and started reading.
The information was intriguing to say the least, but pretty hard to believe. Still, it was certainly
plausible, and what got me thinking that "hey, maybe this really works" was the fact that it
wasn't a new fad diet with some supplement someone supposedly just came up with; rather, it
was a weightloss protocol that had been around since the 1950's, when a man named Dr.
Simeons discovered what could be achieved by combining the natural hormone hCG with a very
low calorie diet. Just as there are many cancer cures out there that have cured cancer in the past,
but which remedies or knowledge of such remedies have been obliterated (see the book Politics
in Healing- the Suppression and Manipulation of American Medicine) by the "Powers that Be"
since those "Powers that Be" couldn't make money off of such therapies. After reading reading
the history behind this protocol (it's really not a diet, but a protocol to healthful wellness), I felt
there may be some merit to it.
Proof that hCG works was in the real people doing the Diet
Next I started finding vlogs of people on youtube who had done or were doing the hCG diet in
real life and sharing their experiences (click here to learn how to find these people). It's pretty
tough to argue with real live people isn't it? You can read all the postings on forums and
hubpages articles saying "hcg is a scam" or "hcg is a starvation diet" by people who have neither
tried the diet nor researched it (btw do I look starved in the above photo?), but the truth is in
actual results of thousands of people. Real people were losing a lot of weight very quickly using
hCG.
My last concern was "how much of the weight loss on hCG is muscle and how much is fat?"
This was something with a much less clear answer as there haven't been too many people aware
of or able to track their bodyfat percent before and after doing the hCG diet through the reliable
methods known, which are hydrostatic body fat testing and now, the DEXA scan. The few
examples I did find lost very little if any lean mass while doing the hCG diet.[pullquote]The few
examples I did find lost very little if any lean mass while doing the hCG [/pullquote] This was
encouraging to me, however the examples were all of men, who have a serious advantage in
maintaining muscle because of their testosterone levels (I'm sure it's more complicated than that
but you know what i mean- I'm a GIRL- I'm different).
My own proof that the hCG Diet works came from Bodyfat testing
After thoroughly researching the hCG protocol for months I finally felt comfortable and ready to
proceed with it. I did a hydrostatic body fat test before I started, and subsequent testing after
each round. I'm proud to say, that when doing the hCG diet properly, muscle loss is minimal
4. even for women. My third round of hCG alone I lost 7.5% body fat in only 38 days. That
equates to 16.8 lbs of fat lost and 4.2 lbs pounds of muscle. So while there was some muscle
loss, the ratio was phenomenal for what I achieved. After my third round of hCG, I started going
to a Crossfit gym 3-4 days a week to get strong (remember, I am coming from a pretty sedentary
lifestyle as after I became ill I could no longer be active much of the time for several years). In
only 3 months time I gained 7 pounds of muscle! Again, this was proved by hydrostatic body fat
testing. I maintained almost all my fat loss as I only gained 1/2 pound of fat back with that 7 lbs
of muscle. I did a subsequent 4th round of hCG to lose even more fat, then took a 5 month break
where I again went to Crossfit 3-4 days a week, this time gaining 5 lbs of muscle and again, only
1/2 pound of fat back. I am currently concluding my 5th round of hCG which has brought me
down to 23 pounds of fat total on my body (compared to the 59 pounds of fat I started with). I
never thought I could be this small again. I just did my first real pull up a few days ago, during
this 5th round of hCG. Do you know how hard it is for a woman to be able to do a pull up? hCG
is the only diet I will EVER use to lose fat with and is the only protocol I recommend to others
for fat loss as well- it's simply the most effective fat loss tool, so I won't bother with anything
else ever again.
