Following HCG Protocol

Have you heard of the HCG? If you have then you must have heard the average weight loss numbers. That's what most of us are interested in! And we should be! 1 to 2 pounds of average weight loss per day is astounding. And the HCG protocol even offers high rates of successful maintenance. I know you want to experience that type of weight loss yourself. Who doesn't?

And it makes it even better that the 1 to 2 pounds per day don't start coming off after a "delay" like so many other diets. The HCG protocol requires a short time span (from 15 to 40 days on average) and the weight starts coming off immediately as long as dieters stick to the program. The varying times are offered due to the fact that dieters' needs vary with their current weight, their personal goals and their ideal weights for optimum general health.

To lay it out for you is very simple...HCG protocol isn't tricky. First you need to listen to the rules you are given regarding administering the HCG. For instance, with HCG Diet Direct's homeopathic HCG weight loss formula you take the oral drops 3 times per day. You do this every day without fail. The diet depends upon it. That's why it's called the HCG diet.

Simple HCG protocol also includes strict food restrictions. It's actually easier to focus on the foods you are allowed to eat while on the diet rather than the foods that are restricted. The "restricted" list is practically infinite while the "allowed" foods are under 10 items if you don't count beverages, seasonings, etc. It's extremely limited; that's the whole point.

Another vital element of the HCG protocol is the calorie limitation. You're going to have to control your portions. Even if you are only eating foods on the approved list you still have to eat small amounts of those approved foods. You'll probably have to actually measure your portions. You'll probably feel like you should get to eat more. But lucky for you one of the benefits of the HCG is that you won't have hunger pains. So you'll be able to function even though you actually only get to eat 500 calories per day.

If that isn't simple...I don't know what is. The benefits are simple as well. Following HCG protocol helps your body re-learn healthier methods of dealing with fat/fat cells so maintenance is a lot easier. Following HCG protocol teaches dieters to actually eat healthy, prepare foods with healthy methods and limit their portions. And that's in addition to the drastic, immediate weight loss. So not only is the HCG protocol simple...it's easy to stick with. It's hard to cheat when you're seeing drastic results within the first few days!
