Are you feeling lucky? Because I think you’re amazingly lucky! I’m looking into starting the HCG diet and I’m going to share my adventures with you through daily online article posts. I thought about HCG diet weight loss clinics at first, but they were too expensive and there wasn’t one really close to where I live. Next I looked online and I’m going to use HCG Diet Direct.
I started off with research. It’s the perfect place to begin. You should always know as much as possible about a diet before you jump in! I googled HCG. I read what came up: articles, press releases, testimonials, everything. It’s very enlightening!
But that wasn’t enough. After that I decided I needed to know the EXACT requirements of the diet. Naysayers say it’s SO hard! And I don’t believe in unnecessary punishments. The first thing I discovered is that I don’t need a prescription; which is fabulous! No insurance means I avoid doctors offices and pharmacies as much as possible. The HCG diet weight loss clinics I tried first required prescriptions so this was a pleasant surprise for me. I also loved the fact that it’s all natural.
There was plenty of detailed information on their site about the diet: its origins, its recent popularity surge, its effects (and lack of side effects). I appreciated that the site was well laid out and easy to navigate. (I also appreciated the “immediacy” of the entire process. I really dislike waiting and I think I’d dislike waiting even more if it was in one of the many HCG diet weight loss clinics I’ve heard about).
After reading all the information I could get a hold of online I felt sure that I had a good idea what I was getting into! And I was really looking forward to the 1 to 2 pounds of weight loss that it offers to the average dieter. (I swear that I’m going to actually follow through on the diet as strictly as possible; you’re welcome to hold me to that promise in the days to come).
So I’m feeling pretty ready, right? But somehow I just kept putting off the actual purchase. I wasn’t sure why. So I decided to solve my procrastination problem by calling up an old friend and challenging her to a weight loss war. She’s considering it. I proposed that we both start the HCG diet on the same day and whoever slips up first (by breaking the diet) has to buy the other a pair of jeans. Great idea, right?
So she’s talking to her hubby about it. I think she’s going to be in. As soon as she decides we’ll pick a date and let you know what’s next! So keep an eye out for the daily progress. I’m hoping it’s all positive! Keep your fingers crossed for me!

With HCG Diet Direct she’s found a program that allows her to combine her desire to control her own body weight with her education and not feel off balance.
