As part of a new series: "Diet Trends: A look at America's Top Diets" we examine consumer tips for dieting during a recession



Sue investigates the HCG diet to find out for herself if this diet works

Consumers Health Digest looks at the HCG Diet to find out if this hot diet trend works.

The HCG Diet is currently THE hot diet for rapid results. While many men and women are rushing in to doctor's offices to get daily injections and spending over $1000/month, there's another easier, less expensive option. HCG Activator™ isn't just a "diet pill." It's a full program based on a scientifically proven weight-loss method. According to the bottle, all you have to do is take two small pills twice a day—one serving in the morning and one six hours later—plus follow the admittedly strict diet plan, and 30 days later, you're up to 30 pounds lighter.

The HCG Diet is getting plenty of attention right now—it's been seen on CNN, The Dr. Oz Show, and in FIRST for Women magazine, to name just a few. And word of mouth is going crazy as women and men across the country are losing up to 10 pounds in the first week alone. (I imagine it's hard to stay quiet about results like that.) And now, blogs, success stories, and positive testimonials are showing up all over the internet of people who have apparently used the pills and lost a ton of weight, fast. Skeptical—30 pounds in 30 days is a big claim—we wanted to see firsthand proof that these pills work for weight loss. So we put HCG Activator to the test. What better way to find out the truth than to conduct an informal case study?

To get started, I volunteered to be the guinea pig. There are so many HCG ads online, but I liked HCG Activator because it seemed like the easiest one to use (no daily injections or drops throughout the day). Plus, with all the testimonials, they appeared to be one of the most credible and trustworthy products on the market. I also liked that I was able to get a trial of the product, and I wasn't "pushed" with additional offers, and the offer was clear and easy to understand. One of the other things that really appealed to me with HCG Activator is it is stimulant free. Most diet aids out there contain some type of stimulant, and for those of us who do not react well to stimulants, it is hard to find one without or stay on a diet program that requires taking in a ton of stimulants on a daily basis. Finally, HCG Activator came with a 100% satisfaction guarantee, so I could order risk free.


According to the comments on numerous web sites, women and men from all over the country are using HCG Activator with the HCG Diet to lose a ton of weight quickly

Here is what hCG Activator claimed on the web site.
  • INSTANTLY: 100% reduction in the desire to snack—and 50% fewer instances of eating between meals*
  • AFTER 1 WEEK: Flush out up to 7 pounds of toxic fat and lose up to 1 to 2 pounds a day there after*
  • AFTER 4 WEEKS: Lose up to 30 pounds of excess bodyweight and feel better about yourself.*

Like I said, those are some pretty big claims, and I was pretty skeptical, so it was time to find out for myself if this product could actually do everything it claimed.

Because the success stories said you need to follow the diet exactly to achieve the greatest results, I also closely read through the pamphlet that came with the bottle, so I knew exactly what I would be in for over the next 30 days.

Putting hCG Activator to the test

After I placed my online order for the trial, I received my HCG Activator within 4 days.

I received a full 30-day supply of pills, which would allow me to follow the supplement routine for the full month to evaluate the effects, document my progress throughout, and I was given 14 full days to determine if the product did not work for me.

  • Take one pill two times per day

My Results

Week One

The first two days, you're encouraged to eat to "capacity." Having read that I would soon be following a very strict 500-calorie-a-day diet, I took my two pills and enjoyed indulging. Pizza, ice cream, all my favorite foods… I also weighed myself daily, thinking I would gain a good five pounds (I really did eat to capacity!), but surprisingly, I didn't gain any weight, and it was actually hard to eat all I'd planned because I was satisfied.

I have to admit, I was a little concerned I would have a hard time sticking to eating just 500 calories a day. But after the first couple of days, when I started imagining eating a big cheeseburger instead of my chicken breast and veggies, I started to notice I wasn't hungry at all. Plus, my energy levels were good. I guess I had expected to feel kind of weak on only 500 calories a day. But I remember walking through the hallway at work and thinking to myself, wow, I really feel great! I wasn't hungry. I didn't feel dizzy or weak. I wasn't grumpy. I just felt really good.

Plus, because HCG Activator doesn't contain any stimulants, I didn't feel jittery, I didn't feel any heart palpitations, or get sweaty palms.

I didn't change anything about my daily routine other than following the diet plan. Yet each day I got on the scale and couldn't believe my eyes—every single day, I noticed I had lost a little more weight! Some days I lost half a pound, other days, I'd lose a full pound. I saw at least some loss each day. But I still wasn't convinced as they say you lose a lot of water at the beginning of any diet. I wanted to wait and see the results in the upcoming weeks. But it sure was looking up!

Week Two

Around the seventh or eighth day, I noticed I was completely satisfied with my small meals. Any thoughts of cheeseburgers or other types of foods were completely gone. I was satisfied after eating and even found it difficult to finish all the food on my plate. I just felt satisfied and satiated. This had never happened to me on a diet before. Usually, I'm ravenous when I'm cutting even a few calories. So I couldn't believe how great I felt on just 500 calories a day. It was so amazing to me! I did have a few slip ups over the weekend (darn graduation parties!), but I still managed to lose weight every day!

Week Three

I now knew what to expect and how to be most successful with the diet, so my husband and I worked together (I talked him into joining me) and pre-prepared all of our meats for the next couple of weeks. We grilled tons of chicken breasts, turkey patties, and some lean steaks. Before this, it was tough when I had to cook dinner for my kids. (I'd found myself picking at their dinners.) But now, all I had to do was grab my chicken from the freezer, throw it in the microwave for a minute while I made my salad, and dinner was served. I found I wasn't even tempted then when I made my kids their foods.

I continued to have plenty of energy throughout the day and even into the evenings when I would take my kids to their numerous events. As a mom, I run around virtually every night after work. It seems like there's never a quiet evening!

I continued walking throughout the entire program… I got in probably six or eight miles a week, and I never felt tired, which was one of my biggest concerns when I started. I felt really great and had plenty of energy.

And despite another weekend of graduation parties, I continued to drop weight. And everything was so manageable. As long as I was prepared, the diet was easy to stick to, and the supplements were simple to take.

Week Four

Okay, after speaking with friends who had really stuck to the diet 100% who lost 30+ pounds in 30 days, I was a bit disappointed in my 20 total pound loss. But even that's a great accomplishment, especially since I did slip up on a number of weekends. And you know what, I'm still really happy with what I accomplished. After all, 20 pounds is a huge loss, and I feel like a new, much lighter woman. I feel healthier, and I lost 2 sizes. I have just a few more pounds to go, and you better believe I'll be trying one more round with HCG Activator. And now, with all the support I receive at Facebook.com/HCGActivator, I know I'll get even better results!

Actually having seen my success, a number of my co-workers are signing up to try HCG Activator. And every day, I tell someone else what a great product this is and how happy I am with my results and the results of other people I know who have tried HCG Activator with the diet protocol. I'm now on my "break" to help stabilize my weight loss and am looking forward to my final round, when I reach my NEW goal weight. (Oh, did I mention I reached my original goal weight? Now that I know how easy it is and how great I feel, I decided I could shoot for even better results!)

I couldn't be any happier with the results.
I Lost 20 Total Pounds and Felt GREAT!
