What is HCG?

What is HCG?

I did this HCG Diet in 2008. I read the book "The Weight Loss Cure Program" by Kevin Truedeau. I love it and at the time my naturalpathic doctor was testing the program to see if it was worth advising this program for his patient. I was one of the few people who were involved in the testing group. In January of 2008 I was a galloping weight of 250 lbs! By the end of 2008 (November 2008) I had lost a total of 250 lbs! I was dieting in January and I started the HCG shots end of June 2008. I am so glad I did it! I managed to stay around 130 to 135lbs for about 6 months. But I will tell you this, you are what you eat and you will gain weight back if you don't maintain a healthy diet! If you let stress and relationship issues get to you , you can gain weight back. I, (Thank God) only gained 40 lbs back. Now two years later (how funny start back on it just the exact time I did it in 2008!) I am back on it. So far I have lost a total of 15 lbs. 5 lbs of it was on Day 1 -6 HCG. 10 lbs of it I was dieting before hand about a month. Now when you are on the HCG it is crucial that you DO NOT DRINK ANY ALCOHOL! while taking HCG for 45 days if you are on the 42 days program depending on how much weight you want to lose.

What Is hCG?
What's Behind hCG Weight Loss Cure

What is hCG? is a common question. hCG is scientifically defined as Human Chorionic Gonadotropin.

It is a natural accruing protein hormone that develops in the placenta during the first trimester of pregnancy shortly after conception.

Benefits Of HCG Formula

1. The hcg formula combined with a very low calorie diet tricks and reset your hypothalamus to liberates from 2000 to 4000 calories per day from the abnormal fat weight stores of your body.

2. The hcg sublingual diet targets the abnormal fat – the fat you cannot lose with diet and exercise – and your skin retracts as you lose the fat, improving skin tenderness leaving zero hanging rolls.

3. The hcg diet will make your body undergo some amazing transformations by losing fat and weight. Your body contour will actually change, decreasing its circumference and reprogramming itself making adjusting to its metabolic weight.

4. After you stop receiving the hcg treatment you will likely find that your appetite has changed. After the oral diet your stomach become used to eating smaller quantities of food and you will have made drastic changes to your weight and the new eating behavior will stay with you for life.

Social Security and government payments go all-electronic

I came across this article regarding people's social security checks. I personally thinks it is a good idea to have to direct deposited into your account and/or have it as a debit card. They do that with food stamps so why not social security card?? Less paperwork to get in the mail although the more that things go that way less work for the post office works/carriers. There would be a cut in labor I imagine. Here is the article I cut and paste and also a link to the article as well:



Today the Treasury Department will announce that all payments from the U.S. government will be made electronically to consumers. So people receiving Social Security, Supplemental Security Income, Veterans, Railroad Retirement and U.S. government benefit recipients will receive benefits either through direct deposit into a bank account or through Treasury's Direct Express debit card.

"Today's announcement is a win-win for the American public because it makes government more convenient and cost-effective while generating significant savings for the country," says OMB Director Peter Orszag about the program that is estimated to save the government $303 million in the first five years – including $48 million annually on postage. "This is precisely the type of smart, streamlined improvement that this Administration is committed to making across government to boost efficiency and modernize how we do business."

Some experts wonder, however, how easy adapting will be, particularly for those seniors who haven't gravitated to direct deposit or debit on their own.

Some 85% of seniors already receive their Social Security payments online. For some of the rest, making the change might be a little daunting says James Van Dyke of Javelin Strategies, a researcher in the field. There are people who are consciously concerned about security, he notes, but there are others who are creatures of habit. They may work in high-tech fields with high-tech clients but they still go into bank branches to get cash. "People are wedded to the past for their financial services more than in other industries," he says. "They choose their bank because it was their parents' bank. And they have a tactile thing about a piece of paper."

Lilly's Love Tips by Lilly St. Thomas - ASKNOW Love Advisor

I was reading this this morning and I thought you guys would like it! I am all for advice on making relationships work out. My last relationship ended over a month ago and it sure was a turbulent relationship. It really hurt we had to end it but who knows what the future will bring? Enjoy!



Stop Codependency In Its Tracks

It’s great to be in love, but you have to be careful that you know the line between healthy love and co-dependent love. If you second guess yourself a lot more than you used to, and always ask your partner for their opinion, you might have slipped into a co-dependent relationship. Sometimes it feels so natural to lose yourself in your partner and to truly feel it is OK. It is not OK because you are losing your self-worth and independent nature at the same time. Take a step back and start treating yourself in a healthier manner. Here is how you can get back to yourself, as well as improve your relationship.

Spend Quality Time with Loved Ones

When people spend their free time only with their partner and forget the other people that care about them, this is considered a co-dependent trait. Go visit your parents, or spend some time with close friends that have missed your company. Make a commitment at least one night a week to spend some time with loved ones other than your partner. This will improve your relationship because you will have some space when you need it, and more things to talk about.

Do What You Love

Listen to your heart and remember the things you used to love doing. Sometimes we drop our old loves such as writing, painting, sports or dancing when we get together with someone new. They might not have the same interests as you, so you let yours go. Grab hold of these passions and start practicing them again. All of these hobbies and passions make up who you are. Find them again and let your creativity flow.

Exercise Your Rights

When couples get together they reach a whole new comfort level. This can sometimes lead to a decrease in exercise and activity. Give yourself the pleasure of a nice long walk at least 3-5 times a week, go to the gym or take a yoga class. Try to keep in mind that exercise is great for your health and this should not be ignored because you are in love. Love yourself first.

Nurture Your Spirit

We tend to think we get all of our spiritual needs from our partner, when in fact we need to nurture our own spirit. It isn’t about going to a temple or church. You can nurture your spirit by reading self-help or spiritual books, or doing some meditation. You might even benefit from having a psychic reading to help you find your true self and direction again.

Know “How-To” Do It

Take that course you have always wanted. Whether it’s pottery or marketing 101, the more you know, the better. Sometimes we stay in one place when we are happy in love and we even forget some of our goals. Share your goals with your partner and then take action to move toward them.
