At 500 cal/day you'll lose muscle and bone mass as well. But starving yourself hasn't taught you better eating habits. Wonder how fast folks who tried this gain all weight back - article quotes one lady who tried it, and gained all the weight back plus 15 lbs more.
Seems to me that starving yourself for a month would do really whacky things to your body, then it's even more confused if you start feeding it again. Hasn't anyone learned from the anorexics who have died?

This horrified me. Even before she told me the 500 calorie per day and no exercise part.

I often wonder how it is even legal to market a diet like this. I really don't know anything about HCG, but if a person is limiting themselves to 500 Cal per day, that's not good.
