Do You Have 10-30 Lbs to Lose?
Perhaps you are in the boat where you just have those 10-15 last pesky pounds you can’t seem to lose and they’ve just been STUCK on you for some years now.
Or you were going along in life, dum-dee-dum, all fine at a healthy weight you were happy with and BOOM, somehow 10-20 lbs just came up behind you and JUMPED you. Perhaps you had to take a medication like cortisone, or hormone replacement therapy or some other med that caused the weight gain. Or you may have had an injury and all of a sudden you found yourself sedentary and your job or gym hour got replaced with snacks on the couch while you healed.
Whatever the case, here’s 12 ladies I’ve interviewed, either about their hCG diet experience, their P3tolife experience (a structured program for Phase 3 of hCG), or both.
You can typically lose 10-15 lbs in one short 3 week round of hCG.
For 20-30 lbs you will probably need 1 long 6 week round, or a 2 short 3 week rounds.
Bodies vary of course, but that will be go for many of you. You can see my current recommendations for online hCG providers here to purchase real hCG injections or pellets.
I’m also going to give you the same tip I gave to the 30-60lb weight loss group:
TIP:
Don’t get cocky on Round 2.
Round 2 is notorious for failures. I’m included in that group. My 2nd round was a DISASTER – during and after. Had to redo it. So the above layout for timeline is IF you stick to your guns and do the protocol right. No eating sugar alcohol fiber cookies all day instead of veggies and meat like I did during round 2 ya? ;)-
If you can keep the respect for the protocol, you can keep your hCG weight loss journey short and succinct and be done and move on with your life
WHICH….btw, while we’re talking about moving on from weight loss- if you don’t already know about my structured program for Phase 3 and beyond into maintenance, you should – check that out at P3tolife.com. I’m completely not bashful about shouting it from the rooftops anymore, even though it’s my program, BECAUSE IT WORKS ladies.
Enjoy their stories!

hCG Diet Success Story straight from a Weight loss Clinic Employee
Bridgette lost 20 lbs with hCG injections and sublingual hCG. She works with an hCG health clinic in Orlando, Florida. She had been working with patients doing the hCG for almost 3 years before she tried doing it herself. She knew the protocol very well and she coaches the patients weekly. After finding out that her weight was at 153 pounds, she finally decided to take advantage of her knowledge about the diet and the fact that she works in an hCG clinic. She also thought it would be great if she would be able to share her first-hand experience with her patients when coaching them.
In the interview, she shared that hCG promotes testosterone production that’s why people retain their muscle mass and actually gain muscles if they do a higher calorie protocol and some light resistance training during the program. (But if you’re on the 500 calories you don’t want to do that.) This is just something she discovered based on seeing so many patients go through the program.
