1000 Calorie Diet Without HCG

How could anyone eat just 1000 calories a day without using HCG?

Today I was doing some research for the HCG Diet 411 Blog, as I often do, when I came across an article about a 1000 Calorie Diet Program. There were a lot of some similarities to the HCG Diet, but without the HCG.

In this article it said...

"Cutting back to 1000 calories is pretty drastic and should only be used if you just want to lose a few pounds quickly, or feel the need to kick start a longer term weight loss plan"


It also says that,


"It's not a good idea to stick to such dramatic calorie restriction for more than a week. Not just because you'll be short of essential nutrients, but on a diet of just 1000 calories a day - your body will be convinced that it's in the middle of a famine if you keep it up for long"


Obviously these people understand that it's not a good idea to use this type of diet.

It's basically the same thing that the HCG Diet critics say - They argue that anyone can lose weight, even without HCG, if they are using a very low calorie diet - And that is true. But like I have said time and time again, without the HCG you might lose some weight, but you will be losing the wrong kind of fat and even lean muscle. Which means - you are likely to gain it all back once the diet ends and you start eating regular foods again.


Using HCG, along with a VLCD, your body can burn the right kind of fat and even help to fix your bodies metabolism. Not to mention that it keeps you from feeling like you are starving.

This is what confuses me - why would anyone willingly do this to themselves for any period of time, when they could just use the HCG Weight Loss Diet and lose 3 times the weight.


What do you think about using a 1000 calorie diet?
