I went through a 47 day “break period”, maintaining my weight (experiencing only a 1.5 pound gain), and now two weeks into Round Two, I have taken the total loss to 58 pounds overall, and 48 pounds on this – the 118 day – on HCG. 7 days remain till the end of Round Two, which was completed on the Monday of Thanksgiving week, with the holiday meal the reward for making it through.
At that time, the total weight loss was at least 60 pounds and HCG will have been responsible for 50 of those pounds. That will conveniently allow the next “break period” to occur between Thanksgiving and New Years, setting the schedule for a Round Three during January in order to achieve the stated goal of 70 pounds overall at the end of the program. Actually, the “stated goal” is to lose enough weight so that I may be able to qualify for the best, most cost-efficient life insurance policy after completing a physical that will take place next spring. One of the motivations for doing this, besides personal health, has been to qualify for affordable life insurance, and to live within a budget starting on my 65th birthday in February. As you can see, I’m approaching that goal with only 19 pounds to go.
Following the HCG diet, as designed by Dr. A.T. Simeons, M.D. of Rome, Italy (“Pounds and Inches” is the name of his book), and following the $40 guidebook written by Sheryl Lee (www.sherylsgreatday.com) has been one of my life’s greatest achievements, both as a health-conscious citizen, and as a physician.
Obesity is in my genes, and my love for food and wine have generously rewarded me with 70 extra pounds that surely would have shortened my life had I not found this answer. Not that I was at imminent risk of departing – I have considered myself healthy because of all of my supplements and Homeopathics – but one can only delude themselves so long that Integrative Medicine will save the day when one is overweight. Besides, how can I remain a world-famous Homeopathic/Integrative Physician while clearly appearing overweight? I knew what I needed to do but no method, short of stomach-stapling surgery, existed for me. Now, three-fourths of the way toward completing my task, I have been shown how to remain on this planet for a longer period of time than I would have 70 pounds heavier. I want to be here for my 5 granddaughters’ weddings and to be able to play with their children as well. Besides, much of my wine isn’t yet ready to drink and I’m looking forward to tasting them when ready.
Having gone through this period, I’ve done a lot of thinking as to how I might accomplish the HCG program without daily injections of HCG. With the help of the laboratorians at Deseret Biologicals, we have come up with a Homeopathic HCG remedy that contains Homeopathic HCG. It also includes the six stages of remedies of Comprehensive Homeopathy including Homeopathic remedies for Obesity, Phenolics for Obesity and the Hormones within fat cells that stimulate and suppress appetite. The formula will be published at the end of November when the product becomes available for sale.
It is this formula that I will use for my Round Three of dieting that will bring me to my goal. Readers of A.T. Simeons will know that it is Round Three that resets the Diencephalon in the brain to change appetite in order to maintain one’s new weight. Having gone through this procedure, it is my plan to use my lecture and webinar platforms to promote this program and actually treat patients in my practice who seriously want to address their obesity.
It isn’t easy, as during the HCG days one must follow a 500 calorie maximum daily diet. Please know that the days you cheat and eat 600 calories, not only do you fail to lose weight, but you may sometimes actually gain. The toxins released from one’s fat cells can be very irritating, and proper detoxification is MANDATORY. My saving grace was the 6-part Detox system I developed for Desbio, plus EDTA Heavy Metal Chelation Detox.
The emotional release techniques, offered by several professional physicians (the subject of a future article) were totally invaluable, and it is these techniques that I will incorporate into the program, as well as include in my practice, and write and lecture upon. d
I have now completed Round Three. I invite you to reach me through my own website and Blog www.drbruceshelton.com or through the website of Deseret Biologicals www.desbio.com.
