I tried the HCG diet to lose about 15 lbs to see if anything would come off my boobs.... and of course not! ;) I did lose weight though! ;) Does any one know if using HCG is harmful before surgery? Nothing like asking NOW, one month before. I end my HCG in 4 days... so it will be about 26/27 days before the cutting ceremony. My FAMILY dr says I should be fine... but SHOULD be isn't good enough! ;) Any insight would be appreciated! ;)
