1234 Diet Drops Original Amino Complex - 1234 Diet Plan, 2 Fl Oz (3 Pack)

Excited with the results and appetite control! I purchased the drops June 17th and began the original HCG diet protocol from Dr. Simeons on June 20th at 230.6 pounds. As of July 17th I currently weigh 206.7, which is a 23.9 pound loss in 28 days. My height is 5'7. The first week there were two mornings that I lost three pounds (Woohoo!). I drink half my weight, in ounces, in water; so as my weight lowers, I drink a little less. I'm not a water lover and it's been hard to give up flavored drinks, particularly diet sodas, but well worth the results. After I take my drops my appetite decreases significantly and it can be difficult to get myself to eat. Sometimes I half my portions for later in the day, so that I feel like I'm eating more meals, although I haven't felt hungry and deprived, I still battle with staring at what others are eating and thinking how delicious that chocolate cake would be. I've cheated a couple times and lost the following day, only to go up a pound or two days later. Not that cheating is good, but if you do cheat, do it by eating extra protein or fruit and skip dairy,carbs,and sugar. My two cheats: enchilada suizas with a strawberry margarita and 2 fried chicken drumsticks and 3 apple flavored beers. I do not workout on this diet, because many people have stated that the calories are so low that it's not beneficial too energy levels. In the past, I've done Jillian Micheals 30 day shred and about a month of Insanity. Really love JMs 30 day shred, quick workout and saw muscles develop fast. So upon completion of this round I will start muscle building with JMs Shred. My goal was to lose quick and it's happening. Would I have the same results without these drops? Don't know and don't care. If it ain't broke, don't fix it. I will be repurchasing. Although one bottle of these drops lasted me until day 25. I take straight from the dropper, which seems to be calibrated, since it's usually filled to the same spot each time. Even though I'm doing the drops, I follow HCG diet and protocols with great success. I have done one apple day for a stall with success the following day and I get most of my information from HCGChica on Youtube and even purchased her book about phase 2 here on Amazon.It's mostly a tracker but shares some good information for newbies. I also emailed Creative Bioscience with about 10 questions when I first received the drops and the reviews about their stellar customer service was correct. They emailed me within the hour with an answer to every question and some suggested links. I Do Not follow their diet protocol that was sent in the pamphlet with these bottles. I have gone online to look up HCG tips and tricks, like adding 2 tbsp apple cider vinegar to your water, once daily, or drinking two plain green teas (no fruit flavored green teas because they have hidden sugar from fruit), or taking a dieters tea (which I do after I eat red meat or Shirataki noodles) like smooth move although I get Caligirl from the 99 Cents store and it works like I paid twenty dollars. My greatest find was Miracle noodles also known as Shirataki noodles at a local Japanese store. I was hesitant to try what seemed like fake food, but it's been a life saver, and is much cheaper than online. When a carb craving hits or I'm just occasionally extra hungry, like around my TOM I add these noodles and I do not count them as a serving of vegetables. These noodles are nonsoluble and will not be digested. They come in and go out, meaning that if you weigh yourself before they've left your system, you will see a gain or remain the same weight. Be aware that this is a change in eating, rather than dieting. You must educate yourself about phase 3 and phase 4 of the HCG protocol or you will regain your weight faster than you lost it. Phase 3 is 1500 calories versus the 500 calories in phase 2, but same foods. Phase 4 is when you reintroduce foods slowly to see if that food causes water retention which translates into a gain. If it leads to a gain, steak days are used to correct the gain, but you also need to write that off as a food that should be restricted or limited in your diet. The phases of the diet are phase 1 loading (two days of eating like crap, anything you want high fat, carb, calorie, as much as you want while starting drops----phase 2 (vlcd/very low calorie diet 23-43 days) 500 calories which looks like coffee for breakfast. Lunch is 100 grams of specific proteins/no oil ( but I always use a little bit of a canned oil spray) 1 specified fruit,6 ounces of an approved vegetable, and I skip the cracker that that tastes like cardboard. Dinner is the same as lunch with different protein or vegetable. I have skipped dinner occasionally, when I was too tired or just not hungry. It didn't make my next day's loss super big, but didn't cause problems either. I use Stevia a lot for coffee, Asian seasoned meals, and dressings and I've had no issues. I do watch my salt intake (always use accent and Braggs Liquid Aminos as Soy Sauce Substitute-tastes the same too) and take a couple water pills if I keep finding my losses are lower that half a pound, like .2 or .4, for a few days in a row. Phase 3 is usually 3-6 weeks of letting your body stabilize and so that it can adjust your metabolism to the new weight. You get the same foods, but more 1500 calories not 500. If you need to lose more, after phase 3, start phase 1 and 2 again. Once you've hit your goal weight, you can begin phase 4. Track your foods, eat in a healthy calorie range, and reintroduce all foods slowly. I wouldn't reintroduce more than two new foods a week, from what I've read from others who've tried it. Correct gains from newly reintroduced foods with a steak day and restrict or limit that food. Starting Weight 230.6 Losses Day 2: -3.1 D3 -3.4 D4 -2.5 D5 -1.1 D6 -1.5 D7 -0.6 D8 +1.0 D9 -2.0 D10 +0.5 D11 -0.6 D12 -1.5 D13 -0.5 D14 -1.6 D15 -0.4 D16 -0.8 D17 -0.9 D18 -1.1 D19 -0.1 D20 -0.9 D21 -1.1 D22 -0.1 D23 - 0.9 D24 -1.0 D25 +0.1 D26 0.0 D27 -1.4 D28 -0.5 I always try to weigh myself after a BM, sorry for TMI and sometimes I find that even though I use the restroom first thing in morning and generally weight around 8am, if I reweigh myself around 11:30am (which I only do if I've drank a little coffee and no water yet), my weight is a little lower and I will re log this weight. I definitely wouldn't try this diet without the drops, I can always feel when my drops kick in, because I'm suddenly not that hungry anymore. My energy level hasn't suffered, which I attribute to the drops, and I generally only crave sugar around my TOM, which I attribute to the drops as well. I've noticed that I'm losing mostly from my face, stomach and a little from my thunder thighs (Thanks Mom!). I've started at size 18 and I am down to a size 16. Usually, the girls would be shrinking by now, but it hasn't happened yet. My bestfriend is taking the actual HCG hormone, which these drops are not and I've noticed that her losses are usually always at least 1 pound, but I'm willing to lose a few ounces taking drops because I feel they are safe, inexpensive and you don't need to worry about mixing vials, purchasing a kit, and injecting yourself with a need. And believe it or not I'm a real person, although I know that no one will believe it, since I never believe it myself. LOL!!! This protocol does teach you how to eat and you lose quick without killing yourself for hours at a gym. I have heard that some people extend phase 2 beyond 43 days, which I will be doing, since I'm not doing the actual injections, but the drops. I think the thing to remember is to quit when it's tiresome and you feel like you can't maintain it anymore. Good luck, although if you follow the 500 calorie protocol you wont need luck!

Lets start with I've done diets, many of them. I've lost, gained and lost again. I'm male, 29 years old, 6' tall and 266 pounds. By that standard my BMI places me in categories I'd rather not talk about. I have had relatives and friends do the diets with HCG in them similar to this one with relative success and I really didn't feel like spending a bazillion dollars on the hormone. I actually thought these had HCG when I got them, which was fast, but they don't. I decided I'd give it a try anyway due to the large quantity of good reviews, price difference, and because I'm tired of having to try and hide my man curves. NOTE: The FDA has basically made HCG illegal unless administered by a medical professional so you'll find its harder to get anyway. The downsides or side effects of the HCG hormone are also more prevalent than this proprietary/homeopathic blend, such as growing manboobs. From what I understand the diet and ingredients here are very similar to Dr. Simeons and I am trying this alongside a friend who is doing the HCG diet of 500 calories a day. So far I'm getting the same results as him, without HCG. He's 30 years old and the equivalent weight that I am.I think it's important to mention to those considering this purchase, there are mixed reviews and I have done a diet almost identical to this one, just without the drops and with food only. I lost close to a pound a day when just following a low calorie, high protein diet almost identical to this. What else happened without the drops? I was seriously "always" hungry and more likely to binge. So far I've noticed that with these drops they definitely make a huge difference in supressing my apettite. I've actually had only slight cravings and am starting to feel full on the 200 and 400 calorie meals, which has never happened before to me, on any diet AND I have muscle to support and try and keep.One rule you should consider also is that, the more body fat you have to lose, generally the quicker or more you will lose. If you are an already slim person, still unhappy with an extra 5 pounds, your body will put up a much bigger fight to lose that weight. If you have a double set of spare tires to get rid of, you will likely have better success with this kind of diet protocol or notice bigger losses.Phase 1: SO...I started my loading phase and it wasn't much different than usual but I tried to eat more Mcdonalds, fats and starches, pasta and such. For those who think the drops burn, haven't regularly drank wheatgrass juice. This flavor is NOTHING compared to many others and I find it extremely easy to keep under my tongue for 10 minutes. It only tingles for about the first 20 seconds and then fades to a neutral flavored sensation, never making my throat or anything numb. During the loading phase everything seemed normal and went according to plan.Phase 2: After my loading phase I decided to weigh myself the first time, not being particularly keen on seeing how much I weighed or how much I gained during loading. So I started at 266 and three days later I weighed in at 262, and while this is likely due to the diet alone, at least I'm not always starving or obsessing about what I would eat if I break. That's 4 pounds in 3 days, which gives me motivation to keep going for the 6 weeks and try to reach my 200 lbs goal. I haven't noticed any headaches during the first 2 days of phase two or any diziness at all. I was a little more lazy than usual but the first 3 to 4 days are usually the hardest to get through anyway. As I write this on day 4 I feel that I have normal levels of energy, which I also attribute to the drops.Note: (I am following the diet plan strictly)So far so good and assuming I don't break, I will keep this updated every so often for those interested...Breakdown: You can lose this kind of weight without these drops by folllowing the same diet, but the drops keep you from being hungry all the time and keep your energy levels up so your depressed moping around the house doesn't lead into the kitchen. ALSO the reason you likely keep your muscle mass with this diet as compared to others is because Glutamine is in these drops, which is known to help build and maintain muscle mass. It plays a vital role in that area and, for me is reason enough to use the drops.BY THE WAY: Creative Bioscience website sells these bottles at 55 bucks a pop. Buy this one instead.***UPDATE***After 8 days of following the diet protocol consistently I have lost 11 pounds. Something else worth noting is that for 2 days I forgot to bring my drops with me to work. I continued to lose a pound a day regardless. After the first week in a six week attempt at this I am definitely having less cravings and caring less and less about when the diet will be over. It's becoming easier and I imagine it will continue to be so except for the sporadic cravings. Also, I drink about 2 liters of water a day, not 3 because seriously....? I piss like a russian racehorse all day drinking that much. 2 liters is working fine for me instead of the recommended 3. I'll update in another week or so.

The product does not work as described.I asked questions about how to take these drops, to get a result and has not received any response from the person who took those drops. I think that the review written by people who are interested in selling. I lost 8 pounds in 3 weeks. I stopped taking the drops after the second week because my weight continue to be at a constant level even though I followed all recommendations. I have experienced the loss of the same weight without the use of drops in past.You can lose those kilograms if you will consume no more than 1000 calories a day (not eating sugar, any fat, bread, cereals). Follow the recommendations on 1234 diet and you do not need these drops.IMPORTANT: you can not get your money back, although the site Creative Bioscience and Amazon promises to return them. This product is not refundable. I bought a set of 3. I opened just one bottle. I could not return the remaining two, though they were in their original packaging.In this diet is only one advantage - you should follow diet and carefully choose the products for eating. Three weeks later, you get used to observe certain rules in the diet and weight will continue to decline.Maybe it makes sense to contact support team (contact details on the website) before you spend money. I got three the same response (copied-pasted) on three of my request. Good luck if you want to spend money.
