[ilovederek]

Has anyone experienced any bad side effects from the hcg shots?  I am administering them myself and just want to know what to look out for.

I have high blood pressure and I will start  the hcg tomorrow I am afraid but I am tired of being fat

The reason for the HCG is so that you don't lose muscle when you are consuming only 500 calories.  You burn fat.  I asked the same question since am in healthcare and do know how calories, etc. work.

I am on day 13 of HCG diet, and have lost 17 pounds. I feel great. If I was losing from just the 500 calorie diet, I would be extremely hungry, irritable,and tired. This is not the case. I have a great mood, am not hungry, weak or tired. I had 1 day with sugar cravings. And today I have some thigh cramps, tightness. I added magnesium and potassium supplements and its much better. I think if you are serious, can stick to it, its a great tool for weight loss.

Yes. Feel the same exact way with the tiredness. Although I felt more tired when taking the drops. Also, the day after I stopped taking them, I started getting dizzy spells. Not mild either! Full on, can't walk, grab a wall, stop the car type dizzy spells. There have been at least 5 episodes in the past 2 days. My husband has been very curious and cautious about the drops and now that he knows about these dizzy spells Im not sure he'll b on bored with me going another round, although I would b willing to, just to get those last pesky lbs off.
