Tips for Maneuvering the HCG Diet
The HCG Diet is not being called the Weight Loss Cure for nothing! It offers amazing and unique weight loss results in an industry that has been crawling with supposedly effective diets for years. But there are a few points that can make or break your success on the program.
1. Stick to the diet. The way the HCG interacts with the body means you get significant weight loss, but it also means that if you introduce fatty foods or sugar to your body while it is under the effect of the HCG it will soak it up resulting in higher than normal weight gain in reaction to the foods ingested. So having that one bite or two of your favorite dessert or those yummy ribs at the neighbor’s barbeque will actually undo all the hard work you’ve put in for the entire day (or more).
2. Prepare your meals ahead of time. Go ahead and cook full recipes and then divide the finished product up into individual portions. Set them aside and have them on hand when you need them. If you prepare in this way you’ll never find yourself STARVING with nothing quick enough to eat. This is one of the main reasons dieters break from the meal plan. And breaking from the meal plan will affect your weight loss just as immediately as staying on it.
3. Experiment until you find an herbal tea and a non-sugar sweetener that you enjoy. They will make sticking to the plan much, much easier. You can use the sweetener in several available recipes to help you feel like you’ve got the sweets that you are actually expected to deny yourself.
4. There are many seasonings allowed on the HCG diet. Take advantage of them. You can do a lot with lemon juice. And there’s no need to eat plain, unseasoned boiled chicken unless you just prefer it that way. Try different seasonings and make sure you feel like you’re getting a little bit of variety within the guidelines presented by the program.
Sticking to any low calorie diet is difficult. But the HCG diet is an extremely low calorie diet. The HCG keeps the body from going into starvation mode, but make sure to follow the tips you’re give so you can keep from going into a psychological starvation mode!
