HCG Shots??
the diet is now a 500 cal lean meat only diet. NO cheese. AND NO oils. You can have 1/2 oz of milk a day and 3 eggs in a 7 day period. the diet is extremely restrictive. You can have cucumbers and spinach and a few other green veggies.

This isn't true. It STARTED as a 500 calorie diet back in Simeons day. But if you actually include the coconut oil, it was really 800 calories at least.
It is extremely rare now days to find a clinic who offers anything lower than an 800 calorie diet. If they do offer lower, than they are most likely uninformed of the new HCG diet standards. I know this because I run a Aesthetic clinic, and we go to A4M each year. You would be amazed at how many GREAT doctors offer the HCG diet.
Well, I am sitting here looking at a card with instructions on it from my friend who is currently taking the HCG injections - and it says exactly 500 cals and no more. You may know of other standards, but IF an uninformed person is given the old instructions by their physician along with the Rx, then that is what they will follow. She is following the 500 calorie diet.

No, the diet STARTED out as a 500 calorie diet, and only cavemen still follow a 500 calorie diet. Most clinics start off with a 800-1200 calorie diet.

HGH is a hormone used by some athletes to "bulk up" and is known to have some rather SERIOUS side effects. HCG is a hormone which has no known side effects, and is known to utilize stored body fat to fuel the body. There is a significant distinction between the two!
Sonja, if you would like to learn more about HCG for weight loss, I suggest Googling "Pounds and Inches", a transcript by Dr.Simeon. I am using this method myself, and can not express to you how incredible it really is! Good luck :)
Here is an article I found recently on what the FDA has to say about HCG Injections.
