Background

This is my blog about the HCG diet with injections

I've been working out with a trainer for about a year.  I've had some success, but not as much as I'd like.  My BMI is 37% and my weight is 196.  I've tried Weight Watchers (its a good program).  I've tried exercising, but I have to be careful because I have recurring knee and back pain.  Recently, I went to my chiropractor for an adjustment.  He told me that he just started offering the HCG injections at his clinic.  Well, I've decided to investigate it further.  The chiropractic office gave me a pamphlet and I decided to go online and research this a little bit more.  I had no idea how much research there was.  I'm spending the weekend gathering as much information as possible about this HCG diet so that when I go in for my appointment on Monday, I can have an informed discussion with the Naturopathic doctor who will be treating me.  

As a side note, I had also decided to give up my caffeine addiction.  I was pleasantly surprised to see that although giving up caffeine is not required for the HCG diet, it certainly seems recommended according to some sites.  Whether or not I do this diet, I know it's time to say goodbye to the Diet Coke.  I've been caffeine free for 4 days now.  I feel so much better without the caffeine in my system and am so proud of myself for being off caffeine for the first time in at least 17 years, that I feel more confident to address the diet changes with the HCG.  Next:  my basic research results
