Losing those Baby Weight with HCG Diet

Losing those baby weights after giving birth is quite challenging-but not with HCG diet! The HCG diet can be a great way for you to get back in shape after pregnancy. HCG diet is one of the best post-pregnancy weight loss options.

Some tips to help you lose those baby weights

  1. You can normally begin your weight loss challenge using the HCG diet after six weeks. Don’t be so fast…ONLY if you are NOT breastfeeding and you are not in any circumstances under medications. If you think six weeks will not work for you, you can do the HCG diet as soon as you are able.

If you are breastfeeding, dieting may not be a good idea. You will likely have to wait until such time your baby starts to take in solid foods. Dieting can cause some problems with your milk supply and energy levels.

  1. Remember that there are changes in your body that can’t simply be fixed by any diets. This includes you having a larger waistline, softer belly and wider hips. Just as with any other diets, do not expect that you’ll look exactly the same as how you used to look before giving birth.
  2. Those who were not overweight prior to pregnancy can easily lose their post-pregnancy weight. But those who were overweight will likely to take a longer time to get back on shape. However, do not be discouraged because HCG diet assures you that you can lose around 15- 30 pounds in just six weeks.
  3. Make sure that you’ll change your diet plan to lose the post-pregnancy weight. At all cost, avoid processed foods. Eat foods that omega-3 fatty acids rich and foods that high in nutrients. Examples of these foods are fatty fish, avocado, spinach quinoa and many more. These foods are all superfoods and are great weight loss foods. With HCG diet, your food choices are limited. You are only allowed to eat the HCG diet friendly foods. Your calorie intake is only limited to 500 calories per day.
  4. You can lose weight if you’re breastfeeding so you can add another 200 or 300 calories to your daily calorie intake. Just make it sure that you eat only foods that can make you lose weight at the same time are healthy for you and your baby. But remember, you can only do the HCG diet if you are not breastfeeding.

The First Week of the HCG Diet

Getting through the first week of the HCG diet has never been easy. During your first week of doing the HCG diet, your body transitions from burning carbs for fuel to burning fat for fuel. Some may experience carb crash or carb withdrawal that’s why it’s always good to be well-prepared. During your very low calorie diet, you might have other challenges that may cause you to go off track.

Your body is used to using carbs as a source of energy.  However, with HCG diet, your body will rely more on your stored fats because the amount of calories that you’ll be receiving each day is just 500 calories. That is why your first week with HCG diet will be the hardest. The following are some tips on how to help your body adjust to the very low calorie diet of the HCG:

Day 1 to Day 3: Carb Withdrawal

Carb Options on HCG Diet

An HCG weight loss plan combines HCG hormone and a very strict diet plan. The plan allows you to limit your intake of calorie to 500 calories a day. The food options are limited. You are allowed to have a serving of protein, fruits, veggies and a very small portion of carbohydrate on the HCG Diet. The proteins are mostly consists of leaner meat such as chicken, turkey and fish.

During your very low calorie diet, you are to cut out all forms of sugar and starches. This includes bread, cereals and pasta because of their high starch content. However, there are two carb options that you can have during your 500 calorie diet. These are the Grissini Breadstick and the Melba toast.

  • Melba Toast– You can have a serving of this carb for both lunch and dinner during your VLCD. You can have it as a snack option between meals. One serving of Melba toast contains 3 pieces of toast. Each serving will give you a total of 60 calories with only 13 grams of carb. Well, that’s very low compared to other carb alternatives. There are a lot of flavors of Melba toast But be careful because some melba toast contains more sugar than other. Always remember that when you are on HCG, your body is extremely sensitive to sugar.
  • Grissini Breadstick– This is another carb option that Dr. Simeons incorporated into the hcg diet to satisfy your body’s need to chew aside from the crunchy Melba toast. You can have one breadstick for your lunch and one for your dinner each day. Like the Melba toast, Grissini breadstick also comes in a variety of flavors that are quite delicious.

Melba toast or Grissini Breadstick?

It’s a matter of personal preferences. What’s important is that you’ll watch your consumption of these two carb choices. A huge number of hcg dieters who have tried both of these carb options preferred the breadstick over the toast. The protocol calls for two servings of carb per day. That’s one carb option per meal. You can have one toast for one meal and one breadstick for the other meal. If you want, you can use them to mimic croutons over your salad or top them with your chicken.
