September Success Stories

Biz • Coastal South Carolina, USA • August, 2008
http://myhcgjourney.com/blog

In June of 2007 I started the HCG Protocol by ATW Simeons and in less than 13 months I have lost more than 100 pounds!

This has been the most exciting journey I have ever embarked on for losing weight! I have experienced tremendous weight loss in record time, along with better health stats and a completely new way of looking at food.

I totally recommend this method of losing weight - it's not all that hard - if I can do it ANYONE can!

 

Biz's Weight Loss Success Story

Biz's Wewight Loss Success Story

 

Aeonchase • Coastal South Carolina, USA • August, 2008

Since I could remember, I’ve always had a weight problem. I tried multiple times to pinpoint the exact reason but it always eluded me. I didn’t really eat a lot, but when the weight continued to add up, I tried eating even less, but to no avail. I had concluded that there was just something wrong with me and I was prepared to deal with this weight problem for the rest of my life. Well, until I was introduced to HCG. I started the injections at the age of 16, weighing in at 215 pounds. In just 15 weeks of doing the injections (not counting my breaks in between), I lost 60 lbs! Now I’m 17, looking good, feeling good, and thankful to no end that I don’t have to face adulthood with a weight problem. The wonderful thing about HCG is that there is a 100% success rate. There is no way not to lose weight if you do it RIGHT. All it takes is a little patience, a little willpower, a LOT of support, and as I always say, drink your water.
