How To Switch To Real hCG From Homeopathic

by

Switching to real hCG, drops or pellets isn’t hard. IF you have discovered your hCG is homeopathic and want to change to real pharmaceutical hCG are the quick and easy steps to take you from starvation mode and muscle loss to your body releasing fat.

So how does one switch to real pharmaceutical hCG drops or pellets?

If you have just started and discovered you are not on pharmaceutical hCG drops any days from 1-10:

1. Stop the homeopathic drops or pellets NOW. You cannot afford to lose any muscle.

2. Buy real hCG, it will arrive in a few days.

3. Increase calories to to 800 using lean meats from the hCG food list.

4. When your real hCG drops or pellets arrive, immediately take your new pharmaceutical hCG. This will be your new Day 1.

5. Day 2 you will take your pharmaceutical hCG as you normally would and continue with the increase protein. This will allow for the real hCG to get into your system without causing your hunger and allow the real hCG to start releasing fat stores.

6. Day 3 starts you back to the 500 calories along with your hCG drops or pellets.

7. Now you can finish your hCG diet Phase 2.

Past the 10th day and just realized you are not on pharmaceutical hCG?

1. Stop NOW.

2. Increase your calories and follow the hCG Diet Phase 3 food list

3. Allow 2 weeks for your body to recover from starvation mode caused by homeopathic hCG and allow your body to replenish the muscle and bone loss you may have experienced.

4. Buy pharmaceutical hCG in any of the 3 forms you like, Injections, Pellets or Drops.

5. When your real hCG arrives and you have waited for 2 weeks, start at hCG Diet Phase 1, 2 day load, and follow the diet as Dr. Simeons intended in the hCG diet guide Pounds and Inches.

When you make the switch from homeopathic to real pharmaceutical hCG, you will discover:

  • You are not hungry since your body is now releasing the fat into your system
  • Your weight loss is faster since your body isn’t in starvation mode
  • You are not tired since you have the fat being released your energy levels are up
  • You won’t stall out after a few days as your body isn’t in feast or famine mode.
  • And most importantly, your weight loss will have a visible difference! Because they are now losing real FAT!

hCG Diet Pills or Pellets

by

The HCG diet pills are an alternative to shots or drops for the hCG diet. However don’t be fooled by the many cheap hCG pellets on the market, most are homeopathic and contain 0 hCG. For real hCG pellets you have to have them compounded by a pharmacy which means you need a prescription.

You can obtain your hCG pills from an online hCG doctor, that way you know you have real hCG in your pellets and are losing fat not muscle while on Phase 2 of the diet.

Taking the hCG pellets is easy and the most convenient of the 3 froms of hCG delivery. hCG pellets or pills, as they are sometimes called, are compounded by a compounding pharmacy in a gel form. You simply place a hCG pill under your tongue and it melts. The hCG is absorbed by the large vein under the tongue like the drops would be. You still eat or drink nothing 30 minutes before or after to ensure maximum absorption, but unlike the hCG drops you only take 1 pellet a day and unlike the hCG injections or hCG drops, no need for refrigeration!

No refrigeration? NOPE! Since the hCG isn’t being reconstituted or mixed with a liquid, the hCG isn’t broken down which extends the shelf life as well!

hCG pellets are affordable, highly convenient and pleasant tasting!  Just follow the hCG diet plan but instead of hCG injections or hCG drops, you will take the hCG pills.

Happy Losing!

hCG Diet Phase 1

by

What is Phase 1 of the hCG Diet?

When you read Dr. Simeons Manscript, Pounds and Inches a New Approach to Obesity, he describes phase 1 as your loading days or gorge days, where you eat to capacity. That is great but what do you gorge on for 2 days?  And why do you have 2 loading days of eating anything you want?

Dr. Simeons doesn’t really give details or go into the whys but as since has progressed we can easily understand why, the benefits and the rational behind his idea of loading with food for 2 days before beging Phase 2 of the hCG diet.

Society today is a carb heavy, processed food nation, unlike Dr. Simeons time when food was cooked vs. opened out of a box.  The benefits to loading helps your body ease from carb burning to fat burning, lessens your hCG diet headache and prepares you to eat a diet of 500 calories and limited foods as Phase 2 has is very strict on food choices.

What has been discovered is hCG dieters that choose to eat Phase 1 foods that are rich in fats and low in sugar carbs have an easier time turning on their fat burning switch and experience the least hunger during the first few days of Phase 2.

Another discovery amongst hCG dieters is choosing fatty foods lessens the hCG diet headaches. The brain and your body can run on carbs, protein or fat but because carb are a simple, quick form of energy, the preference for fuel is carbs. Fat and protein take longer to break down into a simple carb chain thus the body reacts by giving some a pounding headache. Depending on how carb heavy your diet was and if you did any hCG diet cleanses prior to the diet, the worst the hCG diet headache can be.

A few quick things you can do to help yourself while on your hCG diet loading days and after you start Phase 2.

L-Glutamine, a supplement recommend by Kevin Trudeau, can help to curb carbohydrate cravings.

If have sore muscles as the sugar leaves your system Potassium and vitamin E can help ease your muscles

Increasing water intake will help abate hunger and headaches

Asprin or your usual headache solution may work

Increasing protein for a few days during Phase 2 by 200 grams per meal will help as well

But loading with as much fat as possible as suggested in Phase 1 food list is best

How To Start The hCG Diet

by

BEFORE

Before starting the hCG diet, read Pounds and Inches the manuscript by Dr. Simeons to determine if you can do the diet. Then buy The Naked Truth About The hCG Diet, a comprehensive book that goes beyond the hCG diet with invaluable bonus tools to make the hCG diet user friendly, easier to understand, and more tips for every aspect of the hCG diet.

DECISION

Once you have made the decision to do the diet the next decision is what form of hCG will you use? Pills, Shots or Drops? As real hCG contains the hormone human chorionic gonadotropin, you have to obtain it from a reliable source with the assurance the hCG pills, drops or shots contain hCG.

You will want to use pharmaceutical hCG rather than homeopathic drops. Why? It is the difference between abnormal fat loss (only achieved with real hCG) vs. muscle and fat loss (homeopathic) and placing your body in starvation mode.

DURING

Once you order your hCG pills drops or injections it may take a day or two to arrive at your door step.  This is the perfect time to shop for your Phase 1 loading day foods, and your Phase 2 dieting phase foods and tools you will need while on the hCG diet.

The hCG diet tools may include, a digital food scale, hCG test strips, a body fat tool, a grill, body scale along with a good hCG diet cookbook to avoid boredom and diet failure.  Many of the Phase 2 recipes can be turned into Phase 3 foods and maintenance foods, so it won’t be a waste of time or money.

hCG Diet Phase 2

by

After the 2 day load you start the diet portion of the hCG diet. The foods you eat are very specific hCG diet foods per the Pounds and Inches manuscript.

You will be in Phase 2 for either 26 days or 40 days. Then the last the last 3 days, either day 23 or day 37 you will stop taking your hCG drops. injections or pills, but continue to eat 500 calories of the hCG diet foods. This allows the hCG to leave your system. Not allowing 3 days will cause you to gain weight rapidly.

As the diet has evolved and become popular, others have added other hCG Diet foods to this list or increased the caloric intake. Dr. Simeons’ hCG diet food list is very specific, very limited, and very low in calories, 500 per day. The hCG allowed food is, NO fat, VERY low carb and HIGH protein. This allows for optimal fat loss from the body in the shortest amount of time.

MEAT

• 2 servings of meat a day
• Do not combine the servings.
• Each serving is 100 grams or 3.5 oz.
• Occasionally eggs
• 1 whole egg and 3 whites poached, boiled or even scrambled
• Or 100 grams of skimmed milk cottage cheese

VEGETABLES

• Do not mix or combine vegetables.
• 2 servings a day
• Dr. Simeons doesn’t give an amount of hCG approved vegetables. The popular consensus is 2 cups per meal before cooking.

FRUIT

• 2 servings of fruit
• Do not combine the servings.

BREADS

• 2 servings of bread a day
• Either Melba Toast or Grissini breads
• Do not combine the servings.

LIQUIDS

• Water is essential, a minimum of 8 – 8oz glasses a day.
• Coffee
• hCG diet tea
• 1 TBS of milk a day only

 

hCG Diet Break

by

How do you take a break on the hCG diet? The Holidays are coming up and a cheat or breaking the hCG diet maybe on your mind. Also if you do cheat during Thanksgiving, how do you recover?

hCG Diet Break or Planned Cheat

Dr. Simeons addresses a break or interruption on the hCG diet after 20 injections, drop or pills on the hCG diet.  20 days including loading days you should follow what he states.

“If an interruption of treatment lasting more than four days is necessary, the patient must increase his diet to at least 800 calories by adding meat, eggs, cheese, and milk to his diet after that third day, as otherwise he will find himself so hungry and weak that he is unable to go about his usual occupation. If the interval lasts less than two weeks the patient can directly resume injections and the 500-caloire diet, but if the interruption lasts longer he must again eat normally until he has had his third injection.

If a patient knows beforehand that he will have to travel and be absent for more than four days, it is always better to stop injections three days before he is due to leave so that he can have the three days of strict dieting which are necessary after the last injection at home.”

If you have plans to go away, or partake in the holiday foods and you don’t want to be on the hCG diet during that time, follow what Dr. Simeons says above. Stop all forms of hCG as you would when you are at the end of the hCG Diet Phase 2. However, you should still follow the no starch or sugar rule.

hCG Diet Cheat Recovery

After your planned break or cheat, you need to recover and fast!  If you gained weight, do not dwell on it, keep it moving forward. You enjoyed the food and this is just the consequences of that.
