HCG injections not working yet.....

by octoberbaby, Dec 05, 2006 12:00AM
I started taking the hcg injections once a week. I have taken 3 already and it has done nothing for me. My close do not fit differently and I do not weight less. I am also taking the phentermine. How long does it take the shots to work. Some people I know the weight started falling off. Why is my body being stubborn??????Thanks octoberbaby

Hey, don't give up yet. Call and talk to your Doctor. Also, how many calories do you consume daily? You need to cut back quiet a bit for it to jump start. I am on .5ml hcg injections 2x weekly, and, a calorie intake of 1000. Lots of water!! at least 6 eight ounces glasses daily. Exercise by walking 30 minutes daily for 5 days. The weekends seem to be a little harder than through the week. Don't give into "just a bite". Before you know it the whole thing is gone!! Been there done that this past weekend. I gained 1.5pounds back just from that "just a bite". You can do it

I took the shots years ago.  Back then, I was on a 500 calorie a day diet.  Absolutely no salt!!! Drink tons of water.  The weight came off, but I stayed hungry.  Also, I took the shots every day or every other day.
If you are only taking the shots once a week and not watching what you eat, you are wasting your money.

I am not eating hardly anything. The first month they give you a shot a week and the lipo-b once a week to see how you do. Will it make any difference to take two (hcg shots) a week if the one isn't working? Thanks for helping.....

Hi...I'm using a clinic in southern cali which does the shots.  I've lost 61 lbs in just over 5 months....if you'd like the info, contact me at:  ***@**** holidays to all

My hcg Dr recommended 500-700 calories a day.  The 1st meal of the day must be more protein than carbs.  40g carbs per day, and 60-80g protein.  I lost 50 pounds in a little over 4 months.  If you still aren't losing, ask your Dr about it.  Before you go back, keep a journal of your food and exercise - every little taste needs to be recorded.  That way your Dr can give you advice, and see where you are going wrong.
