No really!

It happens all the time, especially to polyticians ;)

:( What I had read in a documentary is that Kevin Trudeau always states that "what the government/doctors/lawyers" or someone doesn't want you to know and that is a sales pitch. :?:


and I quote:

Kevin Mark Trudeau (born February 6, 1963) is an American author, pocket billiards promoter (founder of the International Pool Tour), salesman, convicted felon and self-proclaimed alternative medicine advocate. He is known for a number of television infomercials promoting his products, and for several books, including Natural Cures "They" Don't Want You to Know About. Trudeau has criminal convictions in the early 1990s for fraud and larceny. The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) has sued him numerous times. A federal order currently restricts his ability to promote and sell any product or service. However, he is permitted to promote books and other publications due to free-speech protection under the First Amendment as long as they are not used to promote or sell products or services and do not contain misrepresentations.[1][2] On November 19, 2007, a court found Trudeau in contempt of that court order for making deceptive claims in his book The Weight Loss Cure 'They' Don't Want You to Know About.

Funny thing is...due to industry's desire to sell you as much stuff as possible, and the government's desire to tax you and keep you as dependant upon them as possible...

There actually IS alot of things "they" don't want you to know.
Kevin's not the only one out there making money telling you things "they" would rather you didn't know.

Kevin's problem is he's not smart enough to run a business on the smart side of the law. Apparently, he just has to cross the line into that which is illegal.

Yes, the diet is not Trudeau's plan. Dr. Simeons founded this plan many years ago. I have been through two fazes of the diet. I haven't bought everything that Trudau suggested. However, I did find less expensive cleanses, which helped tremendously. The most beneficial thing I've I've started doing is eating organically and eating for my bloodtype. I was eating a lot of foods that were difficult to digest, which caused more weight gain and toxic buildup in my body.

So, if a person has Type AB blood...
What would they have for dinner???

I did a search on him. It's an interesting read. Whoever said he's a snake oil salesman has insulted all the snake oil salemen. He's worse than that.

I do have a question. Back in the 70s clinics were popping up all over giving shots of pregnant women's urine. I think that is what the hcg shots are.

Is anybody still doing that?

I personally feel that anybody will lose weight on 500 cal/day. Of course, they will lose their life if they do it too long.

Yes, I saw an infomercial just the other day about this.

Thier theme song was..."pee on me, oh want you pee on me" :carrot:
Yes, it was quite catchy!

YUCK!

:lol3:

Yeah, I was going to watch the entire infomercial,
but I thought to myself..."eh, piss on it" ;)

You are sooooo bad!

:rofl:

Well, one must do what they can to entertain our fellow man
(or woman, if you happen to be of the female type persuasion)

:dizzy:Loooool Rockrz :dizzy:

I know, I know...that was rude and crude
I'm trying to get better, but sometimes I cannot help thyself.

:) I loved it and I'm remembering it :dizzy: Gr8 words!

ok, so here' the dilemma - i hadn't even heard of hcg until this afternoon - this colleague of mine lost 30 pounds in 30 weeks following the simeon diet(i tihnk that's what's it called?)

I guess it works...but I think I know it's not the "right thing" to do - except gawd it's just so tempting u know? I mean, in August this guy was like almost 200 lbs, today hes 166! But still 500 calories a day seem too restricting - although he does say it wasn't that hard... but i tihnk i ate 500 calories just for breakfast alone! :D

oh, how i wish the regular exericse and healthy eating would help me lose the weight as fast !:)
