HCG Disclaimer: HCG is a drug which has not been approved by the Food and Drug administration as safe and effective in the treatment of obesity or weight control. There is no substantial evidence that HCG increases weight loss beyond that resulting from caloric restriction, that it causes a more attractive or "normal" distribution of fat, or that it decreases the hunger and discomfort associated with calorie-restrictive diets.

Acknowledgments
Much of this book depends upon the thoughtful comments and support of many of my patients in Miami, Florida that assisted me in developing the “new” HCG weight loss plan and sent me in their favorite recipes. I wish to acknowledge the ever present support of my wife Jacqueline and my four children who have been my sounding board and to my five grandchildren, Chelsea, Samantha, Jason, Jessica and Savannah who have brought me so much happiness.

Introduction
The HCG diet combines a very low calorie-no fat, no sugar food plan with the hormone HCG. It was invented by a Dr. A. T. Simeons, a British physician in Italy in 1954. HCG, an abbreviation for human chorionic gonadotropin, is a hormone made only by the placenta of pregnant women. It produces the positive pregnancy test and is thought to mobilize fat from pregnant women to supply nutrients for the developing fetus, especially when the mothers food supply is interupted.
Dr. Simeons described the diet in 1954 in his self published booklet, Pounds and Inches which he called the “HCG protocol.” Dr. Simeons’ plan consisted of three phases: Phase 1 was a limited period of overeating or binging usually for two days, Phase 2 was the 500 calorie, almost no fat and no sugar diet. This was accompanied by HCG which was given by injection for 21 to 41 days. Dr. Simeons found amazing weight loss results of up to ½ to l lb. per day. There was no associated weakness, fatigue or hunger. His patients lost this weight even without exercise. Phase 2 was followed by Phase 3 - a recovery or stabilization period of three weeks.
The HCG diet has remained popular but controversial. Some medical studies find it to be effective and an equal number reveal no additional weight loss with the HCG Diet beyond that achieved by the caloric reduction. All have found it extremely safe. The FDA’s position is given in the disclaimer.
In the New Pounds and Inches, Richard L. Lipman M.D., a board certified internist, updated and revised Simeons’ 1954 plan using modern day science and his personal experience treating thousands of patients with HCG. In New Pounds and Inches, Dr Lipman clarified all of the controversies surrounding the HCG diet including:
•Improved oral version of HCG
•800 calorie food plan
•Protein with all three meals
•Many fruits, unlimited vegetables
•Unlimited zero calories
•Hundreds of great recipes
This book begins where the New Pounds and Inches left off, with an expanded food plan for dining out of the home as well as many recipes to offer more variety and fun when eating at home. As you will quickly see, the HCG diet, although it appears to have little variety can be fun and interesting and still produce spectacular weight loss results.
