hCG Diet Overview


Before I share my review and personal experience using hCG drops, I thought I'd  give you a background on what is hCG?

What is the hCG Diet?
hCG also known as human chorionic gonadotropin, is a hormone that is produced during pregnancy. HCG sends a signal (message) to the hypothalamus (important area in the brain that affects metabolism, which provides the body with energy to burn calories) to mobilize fat stores. This will help the body bring in nutrients and energy it needs regardless of the caloric intake of its mother by using up the mother’s stored fat.

hCG Injection vs hCG Drops
There two forms that can be taken in the hCG  for weight loss plan. Form one is to have hCG injection,which would require you to administer injections or several visits a day to your doctors office. The second form are liquid drops each day. So which is better hCG Injections vs hCG Drops? The quick answer is, both delivery methods are equally effective.  The method you choose should be the method most convenient to you.
Below is a sample meal plan I used. This plan works with the hCG drops. In my next post I will include a recipe handbook specifically for the hCH diet meal plan.

Sample hCG Meal Plan
*Drink lots of water (at least 2 liters)
First 2 days on the drops eat LOTS of fattening food! This is very important to jump start the metabolism and sets the level of the HCG. Eat all day!!!!
Take HCG drops for 23 days, then no drops for the last three days, but continue to diet until all HCG is flushed from your system until you reach day 26.

Breakfast:
Tea  in any quantity without sugar Only one tablespoonful of milk is allowed in 24 hours. Saccharin or Stevia may be used.

Lunch:
1.100 grams of meat for example: BEEF ( I took out the red meat), CHICKEN BREAST, TURKEY, FRESH COLD WATER FISH, LOBSTER, CRAB, OR SHRIMP(  I didnt eat any shellfish).
2. VEGETABLE: choose one of the following- spinach, asparagus, cabbage, green salad, tomatoes, celery, fennel, onions (all kinds), chicory, beet-greens, red radishes, cucumbers or chard.
3. One breadstick (grissino) or one Melba toast (Feel free for whole grain).
4. An APPLE or a handful (6-9) of STRAWBERRIES or one-half GRAPEFRUIT, ORANGE * (you may have your fruit with your breakfast or as a snack) you get 2 a day and can eat them when you want to.

Dinner :
The same choices as lunch.
Tea,  plain water (no tap, clean spring water is best) or mineral water are the allowed and they may be taken in any quantity and at all times. The juice of one lemon daily is allowed for all purposes. Salt (minimal), pepper, vinegar, mustard powder, garlic, sweet basil, parsley, thyme, marjoram, etc., may be used for seasoning. But NO OIL, BUTTER or DRESSING.
