Reply from Melissa, Age 15 - 01/17/10 - IP#: 67.41.164.xxx Sorry I've been so rude to you Taylor. You're right..this diet is dangerous and my reasons for doing it are indeed selfish. I started this diet excited for something that would shed these tiresome pounds off....because I was sick of people saying things to me and going through that verbal and emotional abuse. I am going to continue this diet and will gladly report back to you all when I'm done. I will only be doing one round of this diet because after that I'll still need to lose 20 lbs and I want to do it the natural way. Thanks for your advice, even if I still am too stubborn to accept it. Good luck :)
Reply from Taylor, Age 16 - 01/08/10 - IP#: 75.66.56.xxx I just don't get why someone would willingly risk their life for something so dumb. It may be your body, but I no more support your choice to do something this dangerous and quite frankly, stupid, than I would support someone's decision to throw "their body" off a bridge, or put a bullet into "their body". It may be your body, and you have a right to destory it, but you can't expect anyone to fully support your decision or coddle you and tell you it'll all be okay, because the truth of the matter is your doing something very dangerous and any human being who had an ounce of kindness in their hearts would tell you it's not okay. You could die. You could be sick for the rest of your life, you could suffer from the reprecussions of a choice that at fifteen you're not quite mature enough to make for the rest of your life, or worse, you may never live to see 16. Why you would do that, why your family would let you when you could DIE for something as stupid as to lose a few pounds is beyond me. I know you aren't mature enough to understand, I know you probably don't get JUST how dangerous this is for you, but someone somewhere along the way should've stopped you. And I know you're too hard-headed to listen to me and you're not mature enough to reconsider and you may never even read this... but your story is a sad one. No girl at fifteen should decide to risk their life, and their health, and their future, to possibly lose a few pounds. It's really sad. I'll pray for you. I really hope you'll be okay.

Reply from Taylor, Age 16 - 01/07/10 - IP#: 75.66.56.xxx Not really... the risks from it are huge. You can get blood clots, ovarian issues, arterial thromboebolism, which are all life-threatening conditions. Not to mention hair loss, fatigue, acne... unpleasant symptoms. I don't think it'd be worth risking even some of the safer symptoms (like, I wouldn't wanna go bald just to lose weight), but if you're willing to do that, go ahead I guess. I don't see why you wouldn't just go on a healthy diet with no risks instead of this. You say you want it to act as a jump start... but really it won't. You'll be fighting against gaining the weight back once you're off it, it's gonna make it super hard to lose anymore weight... in fact you'll be lucky not to gain it all back and more... in fact, you'd be lucky to survive. Check out this page, if you're wondering about the dangers(though something gives me the feeling you're one of those "well, it can't happen to me" type people): http://www.exploreexpandevolve.com/health-wellness/hcg-diet-dangers-is-using-hcg-worth-the-risks/
Reply from Melissa, Age 15 - 01/06/10 - IP#: 75.162.158.xxx Your right Taylor. Thanks for the input. I've never heard of anyone dying from it before...hm..interesting...I'm gonna have to look into that. I should have realized all those technical details and stuff...(even though I think if anybody has died from it, it's a very low number)
Reply from Taylor, Age 16 - 01/06/10 - IP#: 75.66.56.xxx Well, but what if someone got the idea from here, from your post and tried it and died (because people have died from the hCG diet before)? They could get sued or shut down, not to mention, they don't want anyone else to make the same mistake you did. Your mind is made up, you're willing to risk your life, but people who come here to find out how to lose weight, should find people who are doing it healthily, not people who are using super dangerous quick fixes. I don't think it's a matter of not wanting to support you, but a matter of other young people's health and well being.
Reply from Melissa, Age 15 - 01/05/10 - IP#: 75.162.158.xxx But why are they judging my method of dieting? I understand that they want to encourage exercise...and I do fully plan on exercising when this diet thing is over but I need a head start...a push in the right direction. Why can't they support that?....I shouldn't ask, I already know why. They want us to learn that you can't just have a quick fix....that you need to exercise and eat healthy for life....but this is going to help me go in to that direction...I don't know...Thanks though :)
Reply from fara, Age 15 - 01/04/10 - IP#: 71.197.181.xxx i think it's because you're trying that diet and they may see it as being unhealthy for people to read. awhile a go i saw someone post something about not eating at all and they deleted that too, so maybe thats why?
