SimplePure
Complaint 289936 Details

purchased hcg from simple pure. I lost 40 lbs using the product for 40 days and during 2 more weeks after stopping using the product. then all of a sudden my appetite went out of control and 3 years of successfully keeping weight off that i had lost using a different companys hcg product down the drain. ive gained the 40 pounds back in 2 months and I cant control may eating habits that ive successfully controlled for 3 years. you see i was 326 lbs. I bought hcg from a different co and lost, got down to 220 lbs. My whole metabolism changed and my appetite changed and I instinctively ate better. but i ate whatever i wanted despite the 500 calorie protocol or the maintenance protocol and still kept it off.in may of 2013 i decided to buy hcg from simple pure because they advertised pure hcg so I thought it would be a better product than I originally used. the product from the 1st co contained hcg and other fat burning ingredients added.So i blamed my lack of success with simple pure on my self.Then i ended up doing some research on hcg unrelated to weight loss and found info stating most products claiming to be hcg are just amino acids. so I took a closer look at both the bottle from Hcg diet direct, the product that worked and simple pure the product that resulted in regaining it back. simple pure says hcg on the front of the bottle but upon reading the small print under ingredients found there is no hcg what so ever in the brand product. There is alot of controversy out there. Real hcg does work the 1st product did everything it claimed and more and I lost no muscle and did lose belly fat. On simple pure I had to starve to lose, did lose muscle mass and did not lose belly fat. They promised a money back guarantee but I called them today and both their order line and customer service numbers are disconnected. So I called my bank and they refunded me the money temporarily pending an investigation which hopefully will end in me being able to keep the refund. also for your info apparently now do to the fda you can only get hcg with a drs prescription and I called a weight loss specialist who does prescribe and was told I would not have to be on a 500 a day calorie diet to lose. So in my experience you can lose weight on hcg without starving. Just check ingredients before buying and understand the real stuff is more expensive, I paid 179.00 for the brand that worked versus 35.00 for the same size bottle from simple pure.
