After years of yo-yo dieting, Linda Prinster was done.
"Any more attempts at weight loss would just put on more weight a little at a time from going up and down," Prinster said.
But when she heard about HCG, something sounded different.
HCG is a hormone produced during pregnancy. In the 1950s, one doctor noticed weight loss in patients using the hormone. He published his findings as the HCG weight loss plan.
Prinster began taking the hormone to amazing results.
"I lost 20 pounds in 30 days, which for me was unbelievable," Prinster explained.
Her success prompted Prinster to found the weight loss center "Pounds and Inches Away."
There are no meals prepared there or workout machines in place, just homeopathic HCG drops and a scale. A simple approach, that so far seems to be working for hundreds of local dieters.
"For most people, it's the best thing they've ever done besides finding their spouse and kids," Prinster said.
Betty Smotherman is one of those people.
