The HCG diet is VERY restrictive.  Don't panic!!!  You can do it.

About two years ago, I went to a diet doctor to get a refill of a prescription appetite suppressant.  The doctor told me about the HCG diet.  When she said I would be doing a 500 calorie diet, I said to her, "If I could eat only 500 calories, I wouldn't be fat!"  What she failed to tell me is, the HCG will help you stick with the diet.  The HCG makes your body go to your fat stores for the additional calories.  This tricks your body into thinking that you are eating more than you are.  This is what makes the diet possible and safe.

I'm going to help you.

I'm going to first give you the diet basics.  I'll tell you how you are to eat if you stick to the diet exactly like it says.  Then, I'm going to show you what I did.  There are instructions and pictures of meals that I created.  Food has to be easy and convenient or there is no way we can stick with a diet.  I have the tricks all worked out for you.

HOW TO USE HCG

Put 10 drops under your tongue 3 times daily.  Hold the 10 drops under your tongue for as close to 10 minutes as you can.  After the 10 minutes is up, do not eat or drink for 30 minutes.  Try to spread the drops evenly throughout the day to keep the HCG levels consistent in your body.

Day 1:  Fat Load!  Eat as much fatty food as you want.  As HCG levels build in your body, eating fat will get your body going after fat.
Day 2:  Fat Load!  Eat as much fatty food as you want.  HCG levels are rising.  You may find it hard to even eat fatty food on this day.
Day 3:  Begin the HCG diet (see diet below).
Day 4:  Most people already see weight loss!

Continue to use the HCG drops and do the HCG diet until you reach your goal weight!  This is very important.  People who quit the diet before reaching their goal often find it hard to start back on the diet.

Avoid using lotions, oil based make up, and anything with oils on your skin.
HCG makes your body go after oils and fats.  It will also go after oils on your skin.

If you can follow the above diet exactly, you could lose 1 to 2 pounds per day!  If you find the diet too restrictive or you are very physically active, you may need to make alterations.  Any cheating that you do with the diet will slow down your weight loss but you will STILL lose!  Go to the "My Diet" link to see what I did.  I lost an average of 20 pounds per month and that was fine with me.
