Hi Patti, that's sad that you went to a "doctor" who wouldn't even put his name on a prescription. How can you trust someone like that? I know I sure couldn't. After all that's his job, right?

HCG is safe and effective for weight loss, but the antidepressants are not. Start taking something with raw flaxseeds and some raw cashews every day, and that will take care of the depression issue. It's natural, and it works without suicidal tendencies.

I was on HCG while taking antidepressants. I did not go off them. A friend who is a nurse told me that just stopping meds can be dangerous and after using HCG for awhile if you can tell you do not need the meds anymore let the doctor help you get off your meds. I lost 30 pounds while using hcg and plan on going back on it if I ever get to feeling half way decent. Each person is different so I think each person needs to evaluate their own condition and talk to their doctor first. That is what I did and he was all for it, but he could not give me a prescription because of things dealing with his medical license and the FDA.
Good luch to you

Yes, those mercury fillings make a HUGE difference! I had all of mine replaced recently, and it made a world of difference. Let me know if you have any more questions about the HCG protocol.

Steve and mommyleeshy you are both so right. I suspected it was because I jumped in too fast. I have a long history with Candida, which I am sure is making everything worse. I conquered it once before, but I was single then. First I need to get rid of that. As far as the stress goes...well, I will try to deal with it in other ways...if I can.

Thanks a bunch. This is going to be a long journey. I also have a couple silver fillings I need to get replaced.

very true.. I also did a candida cleanse and a colon cleanse before hand. I believe that helped a TON.

Cherstine, it depends on what you have done so far. What cleanses did you do before taking HCG? That is usually the biggest problem. Everyone wants to skip straight to the HCG, but not get rid of the originating problems first. KT's book says at least 1 month of cleansing first. I did over 6 months to make sure my Candida, parasites and other problems were basically gone before taking HCG, and it really paid off! I was never hungry during the VLCD, and it made the whole thing easy and productive.

The other aspect is what you are eating. Is it organic? Is it boxed, canned, fresh or frozen? How much of your food is cooked, and how much is raw? Raw fruits and vegetables are a major key to both nutrition and cleansing. Your diet needs to be a minimum of 51% raw fruits and vegetables (more is better).

I had a really hard time with only 500 calories and felt the need to eat more, due to lots of stress. Any suggestions?

The most common causes of depression are lack of vitamin B12 or mercury poisoning (usually from cavity fillings). The best natural sources for B12 are raw cashews and peanuts. Just 2 handfuls of either of them will do more for you than Prazac ever could, and without any major side effects. Some people are told they are allergic to nuts, but this is not true. Some people get a sun burn like reaction from taking B12, this is because it is working. It only lasts for about an hour, and then it passes. The best thing for mercury is to have your fillings removed. Mercury causes "mad hatters" disease which is one of the most common reason people are placed on depression medications to begin with. I had it myself until I had my fillings changed.

My wife and I coach a lot of people for free on the HCG protocol, so feel free to ask me if you have any more questions.

I'm getting really excited while I'm (PATIENTLY) waiting form my HCG. I've already made a diet change by not eating anything processed and eating much more fruit. As a diabetic, I'm on everything from Metformin, Actos, Lantus, and Humolog (as needed). The dr also has me on Byetta (which I haven't taken in five days now). Just by making the changes above I'm already doing better (plus saving a BUNCH of $ each mo since the Byetta cost $250/mo). I can't wait for the HCG to get here because I know if I get rid of this excess wt I'll be able to decrease, if not get rid of completely, the rest of my meds.

It must really depend on the person because I have been on anti depressants at LEAST 10 years. Since the HCG I actually have gone totally off of my prozac. I don't feel like I need it anymore. Things can still be bad at times, but that's life. I guess I just have a different perspective now. That's my opinion ;) good luck, let me know how it goes.
