Yesterday I got a call from my childhood friend. I hadn't spoken to her since before I was banded and so I told her about my weight loss. She said that she lost 61lbs. with HCG injections. I am not familiar with this and I was trying to research it today but it is hard to find unbiased information on it. There are plenty of sites that have the biased opinion of those who give the shots and those who recieve it and others that simply say it is a waste of money and a gimmick without explaining very well why they say so.
Obviously there is something to it. She said that she lost quickly and steady. But of course I know that doesn't mean that it permanant and more important, that it is safe. She is a dear friend and I would like to learn more about it so that I can either feel happy for her and be supportive or be concerned if need be.
Does anyone have any factual information about it? I am not looking for opinions here...as we all know opinions on weight loss methods are easy come by.
