Question: Did you lose in stubborn areas?

averyjenn · 01-04-2011, 07:20 AM

Hey! I'm contemplating doing HCG and have a question about losing in stubborn areas. I lost 80+ lbs 6 years ago but didn't lose hardly anything in my arms, I have a smallish belly pouch and the tops of my thighs I have a little bit there that I didn't lose. Anybody have luck losing in those stubborn areas? I wouldn't have much to lose, I'm now about 165 and really 15-20 lb loss would be HEAVEN, like high school weight. For me to be in the upper 150s, I have to hard core diet and exercise. Staying there is REALLY difficult for me. TIA!!!

That is the beauty of HHCG you lose from areas that other diets usually dont touch, if you check out the before and after pictures you can see the huge difference even 15lbs makes on people doing HHCG.

Jenn, I'm definitely finding that weight is coming off my stubborn areas (booty). I still have a long way to go until goal, but I've noticed a huge difference. I am even finding cellulite looks diminished...hooray!

Yeah...what they said!! After 5 rounds of homeopathic hcg I have no cellulite on my thighs. Yay!!! My arms, which I called huge, are now smaller and much more petite. They fit more along with my small frame. My in-laws, when they first met me after being married for about 5 or 6 years, (they live in Japan and never traveled to see us), commented "how big you are!" How embarrassing and not a very good first impression I wanted to make. Now they won't say that about me! My neighbors are getting me mixed up with the high schoolers around here. What a boost to my ego!!! I say go for it!!!!

Yep!

I'm a thighs and butt heavy person and I'm noticing a definite difference in those areas. Diminished cellulite and I can even get on a pair of skinny jeans now. I used to have to wear "curvy" to accommodate my heavier thighs. It is working and I've only lost about 15 pounds.

Oh sheesh, I didn't think to look to see if the cellulite on my thighs is still there or not

guess I'll have to check it out

If this gets rid of my cellulite, it WILL be a miracle! I am a definite pear... all my extra weight likes to settle below my navel. I am really hoping for some reshaping!!!!!! The results are really, really encouraging.

I have to say every round has been a little different for me. My first round I lost tons of upperbody fat - didn't even realize I was fat there! But each round it's a little different...sometimes my belly, sometimes my hips/thighs.

I've never packed on much cellulite...so what I've got has come off fairly easily. But I think some people are more prone to it - my sister is 5'7 and 125 and has more than I do.

From what I understand, cellulite is more about skin condition than it is about fat... though losing weight does help, it is more a problem with fibrous bands within the skin causing dimpling of fat through them.

Once I get to goal, I am declaring an all out war on any remaining cellulite!
