    Ok, I am brand new to HCG. I was wondering if anyone out there skipped the cleansing phase? If so, what results did you have. I am anxious to just get onto the HCG injections.

    Any input is helpful.. Thanks

    I didn't do the clensing phase for the same reason as you; I was SOOOO excited to start!!! I didn't hav any weird effects (that I am aware of). I lost 11.2 lbs my first week and then have slowly tapered down to 5-3.8 lbs per week (haven't cheated at all). So I would say GO FOR IT!!!

    I never did the cleanse phase. I just started on the shots. First round lost 26 pounds and over 34 inches and now I'm on my second round and am at a loss of 12 pounds in 14 days. So I don't think a cleanse is completely necessary. My daughter lost 40 pounds on her first round and never did a cleanse.

    the book says it's not necessary, but you will lose more weight if you do it. i'd do what you can while you're waiting for your hcg to arrive- start drinking water, walking, etc. i had been "dieting" for about a month before i started the shots, so i was already eating less fat and sugar. but i didn't do any of the specific cleanses. i lost 12.6# in 22 days, but i also have a lot of health issues that make weight loss more difficult for me.

    Jennifer3,

    If you have any issues with Candida, I would most definitely suggest you do a candida cleanse before doing the hcg. Candida interferes with weightloss. For some reason, hcg makes candida grow, so then this is twice as hard for people with candida.
    I did not do a cleanse on my first round and didn't do as well as the rounds where I did do the cleanse.

    I did a cleanse, and even though this is my first time, I think it has helped me prepare for the 500 calories and helped take away any cravings.
