Testimonials
I am excited to report that I have lost 30 pounds in forty days. I am off all insulin, blood pressure and cholesterol medication. This is a miracle. I cannot express enough, my feeling of thankfulness to the caring, dedication and support that Dr. Rachel Azoulay and her staff showed through this process. They are wonderful.
Five years ago I had pancreatic surgery to remove a pre-cancer growth. Due to this surgery I lost over fifty percent of my pancreas. The remaining pancreas was not producing the proper amount of insulin. My doctors attempted to control my blood sugar with different medication and insulin injections. I was insulin dependent, taking long acting insulin in the morning, the evening and before every meal I used to inject short acting insulin by a sliding scale. Together with that I took 2 kinds of blood pressure pills to control my blood pressure and medication for high cholesterol. I gained weight rapidly and I had all the problems associated with increase in weight.
I talk to several doctors and clinics about the HCG protocol, no doctor was willing to take on the task of helping me due to the possible complications associated with my condition. Dr. Rachel Azoulay was willing to try after studying my medical past and current blood levels. We started the program with Dr. Azoulay monitoring my blood pressure and blood sugar levels everyday. I was under very close observation and slowly I was tapered off the medication as my sugar was going down as well as my blood pressure.
I am writing this letter to share my experience and give hope in exploring other options. Thank you so much Dr. Azoulay for changing my life.

Hi Doctor:
I submitted this on the Revive website but wasn't sure if it went through.
I would like to add a word of thanks to Dr. Azoulay. I am 10 days from finishing the 40 day hcg program.I would like to speak of the results I have already seen. I am 45 yrs old with considerable back and GI problems. I am 5'8 and reached a weight of 222 lbs with a 43 inch waist before coming to Dr Rachel.
Exercise was quiet difficult at my weight both due to lower back issues and constant stomach issues. I have spent 8 years and been to roughly 10 different doctors trying to get stomach and intestinal problems under control. I have been told I have IBS, Gerd and mild colitis more than enough polyps to warrant at least 3 more visits to the hospital for removal, plus diverticulitis and the list goes on.
I have been tested for everything under the sun and even had parts removed to try and correct some issues. I have also not slept a full night in 8 years due to these problems and woken up nauseous almost everyday of that. Bluntly speaking my guts ruled my life.
However I am here now to tell you not only have I lost considerable weight and inches in 30 days of the program <25 lbs plus 6 inches off my back and chest and 7 inches off my waist> but my GI symptoms

Dear Dr. Rachel,
First, Thank you so much for working with me. I have struggled with weight loss my entire life and with your help i was able to change that. I sincerely thank you for helping me and giding me through this transformation.
I have had trouble losing weight for a long time. I have tried multiple diet and exercise plans and have never really seen great results. So upon hearing about Revive and the HCG program, I admit that I was skeptical. I did some research and found out that many people around me have actually done the HCG program. I was shocked to hear how every single person had nothing but great things to say about it, and they had fantastic results. I kept hearing stories of people losing 15, 20, 30 pounds over 30-40 days. With all of the positive feedback i was getting i decided to give it a try.
The diet did take some getting used to. Eating certain foods and limiting yourself to the amount of food can be difficult. At first I did struggle with this, however as the days went on it got easier and easier. I chose to do the Injection, and it was very easy and painless. I also heard from my peers that the injection provided better results. So every day I would get up, do the Injection and weigh myself, it becomes routine. The 1st thing that I noticed was the fact that I was seeing results literally every time i stepped on the scale. It was Amazing! I would actually be excited to get up in the morning just to see how much weight I had lost. Before I knew it I was down 5 pounds, then 10, then 15, and so on until I lost a total of 30 pounds. 30 pounds in less then 40 days, this is amazing. I couldn't believe it. Not only was i seeing results on he scale, I could literally see the weight falling off of me. The HCG is designed to target certain fat storage in your body, and it is no joke. I would look in the mirror and see the difference. I can't describe the feeling of looking down at your own hands and seeing differences. I lost over 5 inches around my stomach. Jeans were falling off of me, I was swimming in my t-shirts, I have never been so excited to buy new cloths! The result that I found most surprising was how I have changed my life because of this diet. Because you focus so much on eating at certain times and eating certain things, you end up focusing heavily on your diet as a whole. The way I eat now is completely different then the way I ate before the diet. I eat less, better, and smarter. The best part is that my new eating habits exist because i WANT them to. The diet literally shouldn't be called a diet or weight loss treatment. It should be called a Transformation because it is a CURE to my weight problem.
The results are real. The system works. I will be referring my father to Dr. Rachel. I encourage anyone who is looking into the HCG program to consult with Dr. Rachel. She is an amazing doctor and a great friend.
Again, Thank you Dr. Rachel for everything you have done for me, I am grateful beyond measure.

Dr. Rachel,
W O W !!!!!!! W O W !!!!!!!! W O W !!!!!!!
From 207.8 to 177.1 as of today (10/17/2010). Waist size from 42 to 34.5 !!!! 30.7 pounds in 40 days and I cheated 3 times !!!!!
The 500 calories a day were rough but well worth the effort although I almost ate my leather couch I was so hungry !!!!
As a diabetic, I had a choice: Insulin or weight loss .I chose the easier way out (duh !!).
I was taking 2000mg of Avandamet per day, 8mg of Glimeperide, something called Welchol, Simvastatin and a couple of others I cant even remember. As of 3 weeks ago I have taken nothing more that 3 doses of Glimeperide (2mg each and I take that as its needed as night). My blood sogar numbers have been well below 100 without medication.
My family cant believe it, my friends cant believe it, my co-workers are amazed. I have energy to the point that im driving everyone crazy. Food is no longer a craving or desire, its simply sustenance. Breads, sugars, cheeses, butters and oils were a part of my diet that I grew up believing were healthy for you. Ha, was I wrong !! All those things we see and hear on TV that claim to be better and healthier are nothing more than a way dupe you into believing somehting so you buy their product. I remember as a child that we ate fresh food everyday, never frozen or processesed, always bought from a farmers market that morning. Always fresh and unspoiled by chemicals. I have gone back to that way of eating and have discovered that "real" food tastes and smells so much better and you need much less of it to satisfy your body.
Thanks you very much for explaining and guiding me thought this process because I was very sceptical. I have head of people doing the HCG "diet" but always thought its was something much different. After much research and guidance from you, I have come to realize that, as you said, solving the root of the problem solves the issue, not treating the symptoms. Treating the symptom just makes the drug companies rich.
Again thank you for everything, Sasha Mitic.
P.S. I have since fired my doctor that I have been going to for years since her answer was more pills, more pills, more pills.........

Dear Dr. Rachel:
I can’t tell you how pleased I am with the results of your weight loss program. In 40 days I lost 20 pounds, it may not seem a lot to some people but it’s huge for me. I have done numerous different types of diets, and never was able to lose weight in such a consistent way. Is like if the fat was melting away! I went from a size 8 to a 4. The program was easy, after the first couple of days I never felt hungry. Unlike other diets, I never experienced: headaches, dizziness, lack of sleep, nervousness etc. I am now on my maintenance program and very proud that in the last 5 weeks I have been able to maintain the weight. I am recommending your program to all my co-workers and friends who ask me how I did it!
This is the best that I have looked and felt in a long time.
Thanks again,
Graciela

Dr. Rachel....I sent this testimonial to you through another route, but you might have trouble opening it, so I'm just going to type it out on this e-mail...Thanks
I would like to share a few words about my experience under the care of Dr. Rachel Azoulay at Revive Weigh Loss Clinic. First of all, I had been in resonably good shape throughout most of my adult life as a result of exercise and decent eating habits--that is, until I reached my early 40's. I battled with a smoking habit which I finally "kicked" a few years ago, but unfortunately, it resulted in a weight gain of about 20 lbs. Now, add that 20 lbs to another 20 lbs from no longer exercising and poor eating habits (over time, I had begun living primarily on fast food). Then there was the reality check of a slowing metabolish as I ventured into "middle-age" (YUK!). My feet ached constantly from the extra weight. In addition, what used to be a beautiful, flat abdomen had morphed into something I didn't even recognize--It resulted in constant heartburn and even impaired my breathing somewhat, as my overgrown abdomen had begun pushing up against my lungs. I no longer had any energy, I barely recognized what had become of my body....and I just felt awful. I tried several different diets, all to no avail. I would lose a few pounds and just gain them right back again. It was becoming apparent that if I didn't do something soon, being overweight was going to ruin my life.
Finally, in July of 2010, I decided that something had to be done before it got any further out of hand and resulted in serious health issues. I went to see Dr. Rachel Azoulay. She was very kind, understanding and informative, and spent a significant amount of time with me during each visit. She ordered extensive lab tests (including hormone levels) and discovered some imbalances in my body that were contributing to my problems. She started me on the HCG diet the very next day.
Amazingly, over the past couple of months I've lost 33 lbs!! Even more importantly, I feel fantastic. My feet no longer ache, the constant heartburn has completely disappeared, my waistline is back, and I fit into my favorite pair of jeans that I haven't been able to wear in YEARS. My imbalances have been corrected and my energy level is unbelievable. Several people have told me that I look like a completely different person. Another little surprise---men are even taking note. They are making more eye contact, opening doors for me again and even flirting on occasion. It's funny, I had forgotten what it felt like to feel pretty...but let me tell you, it feels pretty WONDERFUL!!!!!!
I haven't quite reached my goal yet---still another 10 to 15 lbs to go, but I'm excited about it and I know I can do it. I love the fact that these results were so dramatic and so fast. This program was exactly what I needed. My only regret is that I didn't find you sooner!
Thank you Dr. Rachel for helping me to get my life back. I feel like a new person and I couldn't have done t without your exceptional program and dedicated, personalized care.
Sincerely,
E. S.

I'm a 46 year old woman who'd always been able to lose weight through normal
diet/exercise methods until about 5 yrs ago. Since then I'd put on 35
pounds and nothing worked. Frustrated, depressed, and unable to sleep, I
turned to Dr. Azoulay. I started HcG shots in March 2010 and in my first
round I lost 20 pounds! I felt great! After 3 wks in maintenance, I started
my 2nd round of HcG shots. So far (I'm a 3rd of the way thru the 2nd round)
I've lost another 6 pounds. To date, I've lost over 25 inches, one shoe
size, and two clothing sizes. Most importantly my energy level has gone
through the roof!! I've even been training for a half marathon. For those of
you who think this isn't possible, I understand. I was there too, but I can
attest that it absolutely works. Was it hard? YES but the results came
quickly. Good luck...you can do this!

Dear Dr. Azoulay,
Before I found your website and scheduled my first visit with you, I had been a post menopausal mess for over 5 years. I was steadily gaining unsightly weight in my mid-section, which I knew to be unhealthy, no matter how much I cut back on food. I felt tired, uninterested in everything, and I was simply going through the motions in nearly all aspects of life. Not only was my body getting sicker, but I was getting sick of myself. You prescribed the amazing HCG diet and natural medicines to address my various low hormone levels.
In less than two months, I was down to my “fighting weight” – which I had not seen in over 10 years! I also started to notice that I had more energy and stamina. My skin looked better. I even started to regain an interest in the opposite gender! ;-)
Today, I feel better than I have in many years. My weight is stable. Friends, family and even strangers ask what I have been doing to look so youthful. I tell them about the programs and treatments you offer. I recommend that everyone make the commitment to themselves to begin the incredible journey of feeling more youthful day after day instead of feeling more and more like chopped liver as the days go by.
I intend to remain on course with my commitment to health and the feeling of youthfulness. I encourage everyone else to take the first step and schedule an appointment with you. Thank you!

I weighed 190 pounds since I was age 11. I ran cross country in high school and was on a crew team and still couldn't lose in high school. For the last 30 years, I have watched what I ate and exercised daily (some days, two workouts a day, including spin and kickboxing). During one cycle of HCG, I lost 29 pounds and so many more inches (somewhere around 36 inches across my body) . At 5'6", I lost 3 clothing sizes: I went from a large 12/small 14 to an 8P--it transformed by body and my life. In many ways, this was the easiest diet I have ever done because every day, I see either pounds off the scale or inches off my body (I measure twice a week for motivation). If you have had difficulty reducing your weight, this may be a lifesaver for you.

I would like to share my experience with Revive. I thought at my age (71) I was to old to try to lose weight or to feel better in my body but I decided to give it a go. The program was interesting because I could lose a pound each day and that helps instead of looking at how much I have to lose.
When I first walked into the office I was treated warmly by the office personnel. The doctor clearly explained the program and I was on my way to a new life.
I liked the fact that my meals were easy to fix without thinking a lot about food. I did not have to give up eating out.
I have been on the program for 40 days, lost 20 pounds very easily and feel well. The weight loss is good but I am losing inches faster than ever before and that’s more important to me. The fat is disappearing.
I have a new lease on life and am looking forward to each new day.
I would recommend this program to anyone wanting to lose weight, feel good, and improve their outlook on life.

Dr. Azoulay,
As a 63 year old type II diabetic, I have struggled with my weight for many years. I've been under doctors care for the control of my diabetes but to no avail. I've tried all the diet programs - pills, shots, Weight Watchers, Nutri-Systems, etc. and have never been able to lower by glucose readings until I tried your HCG program. I've walked, exercised, joined gyms listened to tapes and CD's and although was never diagnosed as even slightly obese, I still never felt good and was never able to reduce my sugar levels or even just drop a few pounds or inches with much success.
Since I've been on your program and under your direction, I not only have finally reduced my glucose readings and held them steady, I haven't felt this good and rejuvenated in years. The pounds and inches are slowly disappearing and my energy level is quickly increasing giving my the stamina to move on with my life. Family and friends alike have noticed the improvement and once again I'm enjoying life and look forward to even more improvements in the future.
Thank you Dr. Azoulay for taking the time to listen and help me improve my lifestyle.

Dr. Rachel,
I am writing this to inform you that ever since I have been on your weight loss program I hardly take any blood pressure medicine anymore. In the three weeks that I have been on the program I have taken a half of a pill only three times. My blood pressure has been great. I was on a heavy dose of blood pressure medicine too. What I really like about this program is the blood work that do so you can see what the patient is deficient in. I was really surprised at my blood work. I have tried different weight loss programs and have not been successful. I am losing weight and inches and feel so much better on this program.
Thank You Very Much,

I have always been a man with a large build. Large is acceptable but fat is unacceptable. As a kid I was always husky, always a little round around the middle. My sister called me Jelly Belly and as an adult I am (WAS) called Big Guy!
This was my way of life then and up until 50 days ago.
Today is day 50 of my protocol. It has changed my life.
My story goes like this. I got on the scale in January on my 43rd birthday and realized that I was almost 300 pounds. I was out of shape, out of breath and having some issues. So I did my own version of a diet - lost 20 pounds gained back 10. This failure created more strife that became depression and anxiety. All I wanted was to get myself off the couch and feeling better.
Then I made a visit to my chiropractor and discovered that she had found the protocol and lost almost 40 pounds. She looked amazing. She was glowing and healthy! So with her recommendation I did a little research on HCG and Dr. Rachel. A week later I was at Dr Rachel's office learning about restarting my metabolism, kick starting my life and loosing that spare tire and "man boobs."
Was I skeptical? Of course I was. I am an inquisitive Aquarian who knows that there is always something behind the curtain that you never see. I was wrong! Boy was I wrong!
The Doctor and HCG changed my life. On day 40 - the last day of the injections - I had lost 54 pounds. From 270 to 216. The waist went from a 44 to a 38/36. I have a visible jaw line and the most important thing....I FEEL INCREDIBLE!
Many people are doubters...let them be. I have spoken with so many people who have done this and they have all kept the weight off. But realize that this is a LIFESTYLE CHANGE. THIS IS NOT A DIET. You must be strict and set your goals high!
With Dr. Rachel's help I made the changes start to happen and there is no looking back! I look better - FEEL 100% better and sleep like a baby! My work has improved! My creativity has gone through the roof and my depression gone! A new me!

"I found Dr. Azoulay online in mid-March 2010. Since I've tried everything else, I thought I would give this a shot. I couldn't be more pleased! The Revive weight loss program has been an absolute miracle for me. It has been very easy to follow and I see results each day. I started out at almost 300 pounds and I'm down to just under 260. In addition to losing weight, Dr. Azoulay looks after my whole body health and I couldn't feel better! I'm so thankful for her and her program and I will definitely keep going until I reach my goal."
Everything is going great on my second time through the protocol, I can't wait to see you when I get closer to the end of this one! I hope you and your staff are doing well.
Thanks!

I am a 51 year old male. For years I struggled to lose my excessive weight. I tried many diets and at the end I was frustrated in not reaching my desired weight. At age 40 I was diagnosed with high blood pressure and 3 years ago diagnosed with sleep apnea. Before I started the Revive-Diet I had a lack of energy, constant back pain, had difficulty sleeping, and a low self-esteem. It was with luck that I “stumbled” upon Dr. Rachel Azoulay Revive Weight Loss Clinic on the internet. At first as with other diets I was skeptical the Revive-Weight diet was going to help me. After much research and impressed with the testimonials on Dr. Rachel Azoulay’s website I decided to try the diet. Before the diet I weighed 284 pounds. Now after completing the first phase in forty days I have lost 43 pounds. In addition, I no longer take blood pressure medication, and no longer need the machine for sleep apnea. I have a lot of energy, better concentration, no back pain, and “sleep like a baby.” I am so fortunate to have found Dr. Rachel Azoulay Revive Weight Loss Clinic. Her professionalism and guidance have helped me during this diet. I will continue to work with Dr. Azoulay to reach my desired weight goal. I strongly recommend the Revive Weight Loss diet to anyone who has tried other diets and have failed. It’s worth it!

I went through menopause and gained a lot of weight around my waist--my body changed in front of my eyes, leaving me hopeless and confused. I hired a personal trainer, worked out with discipline and could not loose one-pound--they gave up. The extra-weight seemed to stick onto my body. After giving Dr. Rachel a shot, she finally delivered results that other programs only claim--Revive Weight-Loss plus the Hormone Replacement Therapy really revived me! I'm back to my 20's; young and youthful the way my body was meant to be. Thanks for a new lifestyle.
