I was very squeamish about giving myself injections but the steady weight loss was very motivating and Dr. Bird was very supportive.  While on the HCG diet, I lost 25 lbs of my original weight (before fat-loading) and an additional 5.4 lbs during maintenance.  Most important of all are the following health improvements.
 
                                        Pre HCG            After HCG
Blood Pressure                 120/78                  106/70
Cholesterol                        219                       152
HDL Cholesterol                36                          37
LDL Cholesterol                123                        95
VLDL Cholesterol              60                          21
CHOL/HDL Ratio               6.1                        4.1
Triglyceride                       360                        123


I’m in the process of replacing my entire wardrobe because I’ve lost 4 inches from my waist and hips.  I’ve never been happier and I can’t rave enough about the HCG diet.  Thank you, Dr. Bird!
