Talan talks HCG and America's Biggest Loser

I had a great opportunity to sit down with Talan Nielson, who just started his second round of HCG injections at La Bella Vita Health & Wellness Clinic in Scottsdale.

Talan is a unique guy. He did great job on his first round, losing 40 lbs, early this year. Now, he’s dedicated himself to dropping 65 pounds over the next few months, and predicts he’ll be done after this current round and one more round of injections a few weeks later, following the required break in-between.

Mr. Nielson’s earlier weight loss efforts almost brought him a shot at national reality television fame. Two years ago, at the prodding of his sister and mom, he tried out for “America’s Biggest Loser.”

He stood in the cattle call line at US Airways Center, all the time thinking “what am I doing here?”

“They brought us in like a herd of cattle in a group of 20, and asked one question to the entire group,” Talan said. “I got called back for a one-on-one interview, one of only 20 people selected from the entire Phoenix casting that year."

After that interview, he never heard back. He then sent in a “Chippendale's spoof video", thinking he’d spur on some reaction, but nothing happened. Talan was never concerned or motivated to lose weight. So, he didn’t think much about not hearing from the show.

Flash forward to February 2010, one week after he started the HCG protocol, he was contacted by the casting agents again, but since he was on the diet and doing well, he didn’t pursue it. (He also, accidentally erased his voice mail before writing down the contact number, oops!)

Over the years, Talan's experienced a lot of diets. His HCG experience is different, however.

“I was amazed how I felt, I didn’t have heavy cravings, with the HCG inside you, you don’t feel hungry, but you do feel empty a bit,” he said. “However, I lost the desire to have junk food.”

Talan had this observation about his experience with La Bella Vita and the HGC diet protocol. “This diet is truly different, you are motivating by seeing the weight loss every day. The greatest thing is you get off the starches and sugars, and that all equates to healthy living.”

One of the big reasons for his success came from taking the time to prepare the food, he eats on the diet. "It makes you enjoy it, heck my kids want to eat it, as it is so healthy and I have a lot of great food to eat."

With all that personal motivation in place, he noted, “my cheating wasn’t with a cupcake; it was with an extra piece of chicken or an extra apple. I was pretty proud of myself.”

3 Reasons to Try HCG

If you have tried and failed at other diets then HCG is the one for you. No matter how many times you have tried other diets and failed to reach your goals and achieve permanent weight loss you WILL be able to be successful with HCG. It works for everyone! Even the most weight loss resistant person can attain permanent weight loss with HCG

1. You will see rapid results

If you have felt angry with yourself for years, then it’s important to know that you will see rapid–in fact, almost overnight, results with this program. Studies show that you are likely to stick with programs that offer visible results within a very short period of time. That positive reinforcement keeps you motivated. If you have felt stagnated for years, then this quick weight loss will inspire you to change your life.

2. You will not experience hunger or fatigue

If you have given up on dieting because you always feel hungry or tired on a plan, then you will love this program. As the hormone prompts your body to burn excess fat, you will get all the additional nutrition your body needs. You will never feel hungry between meals even though you are on a low-calorie plan. As your body burns fat it also releases pent-up energy. You will feel rejuvenated. In fact, you may actually feel about 10 years younger.

3. You will learn to love healthy foods

This program is not about artificial or processed foods. In fact, we strongly urge you to never eat processed foods again.They strip your body of the HCG it needs to function. This plan focuses on lean meats, fresh fruits and vegetables as well as herbal teas. You will learn to love these nutritious and wholesome foods. In fact, you will carry this appetite well into the maintenance phase of the plan.

The typical dieter experiences a weight loss averaging a pound per day. We recommend you try the program for at least 15 days to give your body a chance to reset its normal processes, and to discontinue the program after 45 days as the oral HCG loses some efficacy at that point.

Just think of it: you have so much weight to lose and such a short time frame to make it happen. Are you up to the challenge? We think so! Get the figure you’ve always wanted with our diet program in just a few weeks, you deserve it!

The difference in what we do and other HCG clinics is that we evaluate your Thyroid
