Well it sounds like your Dr's are telling you to do HCG with only 20lbs to lose, maybe so and maybe it does help the weight come off, and there are no side effects (other than starving your body). I think the pattern I see with the 20lber's is the slow to little weightloss. I suppose for what you need to come off HCG does work, but shots for 3 weeks to only lose 8 lbs sounds like torture to me. I typically lose 10lbs in the first couple of days, so maybe that is why it works differently for those who have more to lose because there is more fat reserve. Three rounds of HCG seems like a lot of time to get 20lbs off, but to each their own. The ulitmate goal is to feel better about yourself and be at a healthy weight, but as Nanashana said it is not for 20 yr olds who want to lose "that extra 20" , that is not the intent for this diet. And true the older you get the more stubborn the fat reserves are to get rid of. I think it's great you guys have a supportive Dr. that helps you out and you are losing, but with the wait in between each round (6 weeks on the first round, 8 on the next, then 12) it seems like a lot of months to get off the stubborn 20lb, but hey whatever works right?
Good luck gals! We'll get there yet! ;)
