The Weight Loss Cure "They" Don't Want You to Know About

Highly recommended

I was in denial about my weight for about 5 years until I saw myself over the Christmas Holiday on a golf video. I had been telling my doctors not to tell how much I weighed because menopause set in and my hormones were not balanced. I did/do bio-identical hormone replacement therapy and exercised with a trainer twice a week, wasn't eating much and still I gained. When I learned about this program, I felt there was hope and I started the program January 7, 2009 and after six weeks I lost 32 lbs. I have started my phase III and looking forward to eating more food but I am not craving anything. I will go back to Phase II in 8 weeks because I want to lose 15 or 20 more lbs. Since I am going out of town in six weeks, I didn't want to be too restricted while away. However, by the time I go to Italy this summer, I will be in tip top shape. I get so many compliments now, but I know what I must do to achieve my goal and I know I can do it. I recommend this to anybody who is serious about getting in shape both mentally and physically. My blood pressure is better than it has ever been 100/65 (I only take half of my 100 mgs of medicine now (before it was averaging 140/89) and do not take any cholesterol medication or protonix now and I feel great and have more energy than ever. I am so thankful for Dr. Simeon who created this protocol and for Kevin Trudeau for publicizing it. This is not for people who don't want to follow instructions and who like to improvise. YOu must be totally committed. Incidentally, I didn't do phase I and still lost 21 lbs the first 21 days then my next three weeks went slower but I could tell my body fat was redistributed. I can't believe it worked. Thank you.

Extreme

In fairness, this book contains a lot of information. Thus, I will keep it for reference. Unfortunately, the diet "cure" suggested is virtually impossible to do. Remarkably, after telling the reader that this is "easy," you have to find a way to buy prescription only injectables that are illegal for treatment of this sort in the U.S. Then you go on a 500 calorie per day diet for 30 days. The procedure itself is very difficult to follow (many rules). Then he suggests 50 other things you "should" do to make it effective. Most of these are unrealistic if you are busy at all (like get rid of your microwave), eat only organic food, etc. To make these changes, you will have to radically alter your lifestyle and spend a lot of money. Otherwise, there is good information that "incrementally" will likely add to your well-being. But I would not think most people will truly try this.

It is easy to get and it works!!!

I have done it and it works. I lost 16 pounds in 45 days. This is no ordinary program. It resets your hypothalmus and gets rid of cravings. This was the easiest program I have ever done. It is not expensive and it is easily done. I have struggled to lose weight. I have done the yo-yo dieting and I have lost weight but it was structural fat or muscle. And I ended up gaining it back. I have been in the Health and Exercise Science field for years and I have always had struggles getting rid of fat. This was the only thing that has ever worked in these areas. I was a sceptic at first, but the results I have had are undeniable. I can't belive how good I look. I lost fat and gained muscle. My body fat was the only thing that went down. Maybe you should try it before you write it off. I have spent the last 11 years trying to lose 30 pounds. I would lose and gain it back. I am use to intense workout sessions and cutting calories and doing all the nutriton programs. They don't work to get rid of abnormal fat stores. They only way the body will release the abnormal fat stores is in extreme death starvation. The hcg gets the body to release it. AND IT WORKS!! Hattely

To read or not to Read!

Obviously, you can really tell which reviewers read this book from cover to cover and which ones 'only read what they wanted to read'. I believe that the FDA, FTC, Government, Drug companies, etc, etc. are all aware of what is being pumped in our foods today. I myself am living proof of the harm and damage it has done. I switched to organic foods slowly while reading the book and its been around 2 weeks now. Today I tried to eat a sandwich from Subway - it was nasty! I could taste the chemicals. If you truly read the book, he goes into details on how our foods have been ruined and why we have obesity today. He also stated 'EVERYTHING' in Phase 1 was 'OPTIONAL' but recommended! Maybe some of you do not know what Optional means, but it is not necessary. Just highly recommended!!! The reason that you do these things is to detox the poisons from your body and a system cleansing to rid of all the chemicals, hormones, pesticides etc. Haven't you ever noticed how more than 90% of all health insurance companies do NOT cover anything related to weight loss treatments/surgeries? Why do you think that is? Why do you think so maybe ppl can not afford insurance anymore, they are flagged with all these illnesses. He also stated that if you did not do the colonic hydrotherapy (which IS NOT an enema, but if you researched it you would know that) then to make sure you did a colon cleansing 'like Colonix, etc'. What he states about the HcG is fact, once your gland is close or abnormal the only way it opens again is 1 - being a woman and pregnant or 2 - being a man or woman and in the state of starvation mode - and not a 3 - 5 day fasting attempt at lossing 10 lbs either. A True starvation mode. With each of my pregnancies, I lost any where from 50 - 75 lbs, never gained 1 lb. The doctor was constantly yelling at me and practically forcing food down my throat - telling me I'll harm the baby. Truth of the matter was, I wasn't hungry, I was eating small portitions, and I never felt better than I have when I was pregnant. Oh.. and man did I have some whopping babies, one was teetering at 9 lbs and the other almost 10! He also stated in his book that if you could not handle, take, have, afford etc etc the HcG - that you can use another program 'it is stated in the book' that works just as well, but isn't as quick resulting as the program but hey, it doesn't require Hcg. Now I do not know about you, but I have done a ton of research on this. For one, you can find this in the USA. Try going to a doctor of natural cures not traditional man-made prescriptions. HcG is also treated for other medical conditions and prescribe HcG too! The difference is it's like a sin to use HcG in the USA (only, mind you) for weightloss. Other countries are using it for .. oh - Weightloss! There are TONS, and I mean Tons of resources and Doctors on the internet that you can find IN THE USA that practice this. Is it easy to find NO... Do they want you to find it .. obviously not but they are there! I, for one, have a lot of respect for the author, at least he had to go up against our free country dictating government agencies.. Do you? I can tell you I'm truly upset at our country by the things in this book, what they are doing to our foods, etc. Little girls are not meant to have full grown chests at any age below 10, yet alone their monthly enemy. I have started this program and I will finish it, instead of spending the next 15 yrs trying all the yo-yo diets and NOT loosing anything and being miserable. The closest diet to this one, btw, is the Atkins, if you read the book you would see the simularites - However Atkins does not have you detox your system, and rid of all the harm growning within you, the things that make you crave things, etc. Also, if you read Atkins second book (I believe it was his second book) you would see even more simularities. So stop feeling sorry for yourself - We might be free, but

AMAZINGLY... IT actually works!!

As Im reading all of these 'reviews' it saddens me that they say horrible things about this book yet they do not apply the suggestions. These people in my opinion should not be leaving reviews.
I have read and re-read this book. Yes, at the begining i was 'lazy' about applying what seemed to me like mumbo jumbo, but in reality its very true. The very first thing I did was to simply start eating organic food. Nothing with any of the chemicals, and in only one month I lost about 30 pounds!!! Just like that. The supplements and vitamins are hard to find if you look at a "normal" groceries store. Go to a health food store and ask questions, they are there to help.
Besides this way is a lot cheaper in the long run, and by far healthier.
Good luck in your quest to a healthy body.

This is the FASTEST and most effective method in my battle for weight loss.

The candidia cleanse he mentions, I lost 10 lbs (Phase 1). I've been following the HCG diet for a month (Phase II), have dropped 6" around my waist, 4" on my thighs, 3" around my neck, 16 lbs of pure body fat. This is by far better than liposuction, and the safest/ healthest/quickest way to permently loose weight. Got one of those weight scales that measures BMI, muscle & fat ratios, and it's true, that the weight I've lost is pure body fat, and my essential bone & muscle mass is healthy throughout. My skin is glowing, my wrinkles have diminshed. I'm heard at least 4 times I look at least 10 years younger. I get asked all the time by my co-workers and neighbors what I'm doing to look so amazing. My friend turned me on to this book after she lost 60 lbs over a year ago, and didn't rebound, all the while I was watching her eat a sandwich. It's a lot easier than it sounds, especially if you go through a Naturalpathic doctor/clinic. I'm going to incorporate as many of Kevin Trudeau's techniques as I possibly can, since I know first hand how accurate and enlightening his research is.

Just what we needed

I feel sorry for all those that don't have the heart to stick with this program. This is just what my friends and I have been waiting for. My friends started it first and I joined a few months later. This is a life-style change. If you don't devote yourself to this change, you won't lose the weight or keep it off. My health has improved greatly. I'm not tired all of the time, and my joints are feeling better too. I am determined to keep to this plan and will not let anything ruin it for me.

For the serious

I have the book and am almost done with Phase 1. While it's true the method isn't exactly 'easy', it's worth making the effort and doing your research. Organics are getting easier to find, and while they are expensive, I find I am eating and craving less! I am still learning the amounts to buy, because I don't eat it as quickly and the items aren't treated with chemicals so they do not last as long-'a good thing!' I feel like I am becoming healthier everyday. This book is not a diet in the traditional sense 'lose some- gain more back, deprivation, journal keeping, working out with no results etc' I have tried them all and have become exactly what Trudeau describes in the book Unable to lose no matter what, unhealthy, and getting worse everyday. The cost is significant, but not when stacked up against all of the prescriptions, doctor's visits, and weight loss products I've tried. I did find a doctor and yes you do have to search, but, they are out there! I truly believe I am on the right track this time. Good luck to everyone! I hope to see us all on the 'skinny' side soon!

An Incredible Investment in Your Weight Loss Challenge

This book is one of the most helpful, hopeful, and educational books on weightloss I¿ve read in 20 years! I¿ve personally been on so many diets, without success even fasted one time on fresh raw vegetable juice for 6 long weeks, without losing weight. One cannot live like that. Some people have metabolic problems with their glandular system, and diet is not the problem, nor the answer. This book explains why the body stores fat abnormally, and how you can outsmart the glands to encourage it to want to let it loose! If one is self disciplined enough to read, follow precise directions exactly, you¿ll realize remarkable results such as you¿ve never seen before ¿ without the usual side effects of too fast weight loss. No saggy droopy skin hanging on you. This program is unique in this regard. You stay motivated because you¿re not hungry, and you are seeing the weight melt off you quickly. Some problems resolve themselves with this program as the fat redistributes itself in positive ways, sculpting the body. If you read it thoroughly, and do your homework, follow directions exactly, and take responsibility for your own success, you¿ll see this is perhaps the best investment you¿ve ever made in your search for weightloss answers.

This book sucked!

This book started as thought it was going to tell you how to loose weight. When in fact it tells you the special foods you have to buy and even go to a doctor to get a special test done. I do not recommend this book to anyone. Unless you are willing to shell out money for unnecessary lab test. I was a waste of money and I have even thrown the book in the trash.

Phase 2 in this book WORKS!!

Get the book and read it. Or do some real research first on the internet. KT's protocol works. You don't have to do every little thing he 'recommends' in the whole book. Follow his 'phase 2' and you are in for a very pleasant surprise. Quit making excuses and do something about your weight problem. I have and 50 lbs later, I'm still more excited than ever!

Ain't gonna happen

Phase 1 takes 30 days and in this 30 day period you are suppose to go to a licensed colon therapist and receive fifteen colonics. And yet he talks about how much other weight loss methods cost. This ain't gonna be cheap! Along with about 50 other things that you have to eat, drink or do each day or so. I'm thinking I wasted my money when I bought this book.

Give it 5 years

For those of you 'hip' on this book - write back in 5 years, which is the a common scientific measure of relapse for weight loss. Anyone can lose weight, stop smoking, feel 'up' when depressed, but can you persist? Likely not, based on what I've seen from this hack - relapse rates are likely high. Perhaps a gimme was when this author mentioned in his infomercial that you can 'lose 45 pounds in 45 days' - common sense and a below-average IQ will tell you that's not only unrealistic, it's unsafe, and sets you up for failure. Those of you who have reported success with weight loss after reading this book already have an incentive to lose weight - you wanted to, and it didn't take a no-name snake handler to get you to do it. Grats to those who lost the weight, but it's not rocket science, and there's no governmental or medical conspiracy to keep people from successfully losing weight...

I'm just an average American

I live in rural America. By rural America I mean that I am 23 miles from the nearest grocery store and 55 miles from the nearest doctor let along a specialist that will perform the procedures mentioned in this book. I know there are no quick fix diets and it takes a life change to make a difference but how many of us average Americans can afford or have the time to do the items suggested in this book. When I saw the info commercial advertising this book I was really excited to read it and was very open minded as to what I might read. After less than an hour I knew that it wasn't for me or anyone that I know. I beleive it was very misleading and the advertising was meant to sell books not to help the average person. In today's world the average American works for a living and has to watch every penny. This book just is not practical for us simple working stifts that just need some help dropping the extra pounds. I wasn't looking for the miricle because I know that I have to make the life changes in order to loss the pounds but this book totally misrepresented itself. I'll go back to Weight Watchers. At least there they recognize that we are just average people trying to live a healthier life.
