I have read about hcg injections. I really want to lose weight, but is it safe? Has anyone here tried it and could it complicate lyme disease?

I suggest going for the HCG homeopathic drops...they are designed to trigger your body into producing the HCG hormone...
But, you need to follow the diet...and that can be pretty rough...at least in the beginning...
My husband did the diet last year - modified a bit but he went from 318 lbs to 265 lbs in like 4 or 5 months...
But it is critical to follow the diet...as it also helps you to eat better anyway...
I got the HCG diet book written by Kevin Trudeau - from the Library...he really breaks it down and helps you to understand why you are doing what you are doing...
IF the diet is done correctly...it works very well...my hubby has maintained the weight loss for the most part...has only gone up a few pounds due to our budget...
But we will be starting it up - both of us soon...as I am no longer working and packed on way too many pounds...
Also...the diet that you follow is also really good for those with Lyme...so you get a double benefit...
Hope this helps

I feel like no matter how i eat, exercise etc, I CANNOT loose weight, i'm so sad and frustrated.
Christine, where do you find the homeopathic drops, and how do you know which ones are legit?

Sorry for the delay in getting back to you...
I use a brand called GreenWeb...its homeopathic hCG...and it worked really well for my husband...
Can't wait to start it myself...
The whole idea of the diet, is to reset your Hypothalmus...and reprogram it with a new weight...
The hardest part is trying to stick close to the 500 calories a day...but you do this in spurts...
You consume foods and teas that stimulate fat burning...
Considering how big of a guy my husband it...I modified the diet and cut him to 900-1000 calories a day...and he still lost weight according to the plan
Oops...almost forgot...I order it through amazon.com...they carry a few brands...I forget why I chose GreenWeb...but knowing me...it was the best choice for ingredients and price...
Really read the book by Kevin Trudeau...it helped a lot...
Oh and to make it easier to get into the diet...what we did was prepare my hubby for it...
We started changing the diet before starting the drops...got him used to smaller portions...healthier foods...the foods on the list...
This way, he had a month to gradually get used to eating smaller portions...and he really flew through the program...
The diet alone should help loose weight...the drops are what helps to reset the Hypothalmus by triggering the body to produce the hCG hormone on its own...which we don't produce like did way back when...women typically only produce it when they are pregnant if I am remembering correctly...
But the hormone helped in the days where humans were hunters and gatherers...when there were good seasons with plenty of food..where people consumed more and gained more weight...then the harsh seasons would limit food supply...so the body would produce the hormone to burn the fat that was built up over the good months...
Our lives have changed drastically from those days now...so we just need to give our system a boost to do what we need it to do...
Hope this helps

Cutting to the 500 calories is what helps to reset the hypothalmus...
the drops help to trigger the natural hormone production...
Sorry about that

Christine, how long is the program, or to reset your hypothalamus?
So you think the diet is what looses the weight and then the drops help you to keep it off type of thing (by reprograming)?
