HCG Diet Apple Day

There are times you plateau for a few days while you are in phase 2 of your HCG diet. Plateau happens when you haven’t lost weight for 3 or more days on the program. Your body can naturally correct the plateau over time but there are ways to speed up the process. And that is by having “Apple Day”.

What is apple day on the HCG Diet?

If you are struggling to lose weight while on the program, this regimen will help you jumpstart your metabolism. From noon one day to noon the following day, you eat 6 apples and nothing else.

What is the purpose?

According to Dr. Simeon, the main purpose of apple day is not actually for faster weight loss but-

  1. To remove extra water weight in the body
  2. Psychological factor-a sort of mental balance to make up for the frustrations and discouragement over not losing weight for a couple of days.

When to do the Apple Day?

It should be done when your weight has been stuck for at least four days according to Dr. Simeons. It should never be done a day when you skip your HCG injection dosage like when you stop having your injections due to your period.

How do you do the apple day?

Apple day starts at lunch and continues until snacks before lunch the next day. You can have 6 large apples and eat one whenever you feel the desire to eat. But do not eat anything or drink anything except for water. And when you drink water, drink just enough to quench your thirst. On your apple day, you will still continue with your HCG injection. Most HCG dieters are quite happy with their 6 apples and don’t need water anymore. It will produce a satisfactory weight loss the following day due to the elimination of water.

HCG Diet Beverage List

Phase 2 of HCG diet begins on day three. And the only drinks you can have according to Dr. Simeons manuscript are the following:

  • Water
  • Coffee
  • Tea

You may think that having the same kind of beverages is boring like eating the same old foods while in phase 2. But there are ways to make your drinks taste amazing. You can use 1 tbsp of milk per day, a splash of lemon in your water and natural sweeteners like Stevia and Splenda. You can also use some suggested recipes for blended drinks for your meal replacements. Making a wrong choice by choosing drinks not allowed on HCG diet can cause a stall in your weight loss.

Coffee

Coffee is allowed provided that it’s black and sweetened with stevia. If you desire, you can put 1 tbsp of milk. A cup of black coffee only contains 2 calories. It contains calcium and potassium. It has a high level of antioxidant higher than tea, wine, fruits and vegetables. There is no specific type of coffee specified in the original manuscript.

Tea

Tea has been used for centuries not only to help encourage weight loss but as well as to help relieve some ailments. Tea’s like green tea contains natural antioxidants that protect cells and prevents heart diseases. All types of tea are allowed in HCG diet.

Lemonade juice

You can have just one full lemon per day. Add this to your water or as a flavor enhancer to your foods. You can also use lemon as an alternative to the high-calorie dressings of your salad.

Water

Drink at least 1 gallon of water a day.  Water is important to keep your body hydrated, for a proper bowel movement, proper functioning of liver and kidney and of course to suppress your hunger. It is also necessary to flush out toxins and fats from your body.

Drinks not allowed

Diet soda and all other forms of sugar-free drinks are not allowed during HCG diet. Why? Sugar- free drinks may not actually contain the sugar “sucrose” but it does contain other forms of sugar and sweeteners like aspartame and sucralose that may cause gains and stalls during your hcg diet.

Phase 2 Additional Instructions

Like in any diet, there’s a right and wrong way to lose weight and a lot of restrictions too. But if you familiarize yourself and adhere to the Phase 2 hcg diet protocol, it can make your hcg diet a lot easier. And if you will not follow some simple guidelines, you could end up wasting your time, effort and your money. Below are list of additional Phase 2 instructions from Dr. Simeons original protocol for you to keep in mind.

DO’S

  1. Weight your 100 grams of protein choices raw after cutting all visible fats off. Use a good quality scale to accurately measure every gram and ounce.
  2. Skip your HCG injections during menstruation but continue with your hcg diet. Sometimes, HCG hormone can cause some issues with menstrual flow. It can either cause it to last longer than normal or entirely prevent the flow.
  3. Drink 2 liters of water a day. Other liquids allowed are tea and coffee. They may be taken in any quantity at all times according to the original protocol.
  4. Remember the list of approved HCG foods. If it’s not listed, you can’t have it.
  5. Note that you are allowed to have chicken breast- not chicken thigh, chicken wings and chicken drumstick.

DON’TS

  1. Don’t use makeup or any skincare products that are oil base. This includes moisturizing lipstick, lotion, foundation and eyeshadow.
  2. Avoid contact with oil on your skin. According to Dr. Simeons, fats and oil on the skin can cause problems during the hcg diet.
  3. You are not allowed to combine multiple servings into one meal.
  4. Do not subsist on your 500 calorie diet without having your HCG injections for many days. This can make you uncomfortable, unhealthy and unsuccessful in the long run.
  5. Do not replace two small fruits like apple for one large apple.
  6. Don’t forget to record your weight in your hcg diet journal.
  7. Do not mix vegetables at your meal or you’ll end up eating more calories because it’s a lot tastier.

Some helpful tips to consider during VLCD

  • Fruit or carb choices can be eaten in between meals. But do not eat more than four items listed for dinner and lunch at one meal.
  • Oils, dressings and butter are not permitted.
  • Boiled, poached or raw eggs are occasionally allowed to those who developed meat aversion. But use 1 whole egg with 3 white eggs as your protein replacement.
  • 100 grams of cottage cheese made from skimmed milk may be used occasionally instead of meat choices.
  • Birth control pills and Aspirin are allowed.
  • Use sugar-free items like Stevia and Splenda sparingly.
  • When your weight loss stalls, have an “Apple Day”. Click here for more information.

500 Calorie Diet Meal Plan

Phase 2 of HCG diet limits your calorie intake to 500 calories a day. It sounds scary but it works. It can also be relatively easy as long as you follow the guidelines. You might find the menu a bit boring but with some planning and some ingenuity, you can see your pounds melt off. On your HCG Diet VLCD, you can’t just eat whatever you want to eat. It can’t just be any calories as well. So, better stick to your meal plan in order to maximize your results.

What’s for breakfast?

  • Tea
  • Coffee

Breakfast should strictly be liquids according to Dr. Simeons original protocol and absolutely NO sugar! Other option includes water with fresh lemon juice and one tbsp. of milk per day. Stevia and Saccharin may be used.

What’s for lunch and dinner?

Lunch and dinner menu are the same- a combination of one protein, one fruit, one vegetable, and one carb.

You are NOT allowed to have the following:

  • Tuna
  • Herring
  • Dried and pickled fish
  • Salmon
  • Eel
  • Vegetable choices- Have a healthy vegetable in your every meal. Each serving size is 3.5 oz. or 100 grams.
  • Fruit choices– Have one fruit for each meal.
  • Starch choices– Have one starch for each meal.

What’s for a snack? 

  • Snack choices– You can eat your Grissini stick, Melba toast or fruits in between lunch or dinner.
  • Have a drink- If you weight 200, drink 100 ounces per day. See to it you drink half of your weight in ounces.

Example meal plan

What is HCG Diet Phase 2?

Phase 2 of HCG diet is considered as the most challenging yet exciting phase of HCG diet. This is often referred to as the very low-calorie diet or the VLCD. This phase has made HCG diet so famous.

During phase 2 you continue taking your daily HCG injection for a period of 3 to 6 weeks. It’s not going to be fun because you are going to adhere to a very specific list of foods, specific portions and details for preparation. But, if you follow the hcg protocol closely, it will accomplish a lot for you.

How to do Phase 2?

  1. Daily injection of HCG

Have your injection of HCG every day. It is usually done in the morning.  The dosage can range from 125ius to 200ius. However, you can adjust your hcg injection dosage depending on your personal needs. It is also common to change your dose from round to round.

  1. 500 calories hcg diet

As outlined in Dr. Simeons original protocol, the typical calorie intake for phase 2 is 500 calorie hcg diet. Even though the original protocol has an extremely high success rate, there are those who need some extra calories a day. I am talking about people who are extremely active or those who do some intensive job and needs about 100-250 extra calories on some days.

  1. 500 calories a day

Having some extra calories on some days during the VLCD is allowed- but how about having to eat less than 500 calories a day? It is strongly advised to consume all the 500 calories in a day. The main reason is for the maintenance of your body’s metabolism. Another is for keeping your body’s natural cycle in tip-top condition.

However, there are days when you feel that you are not really hungry for all the 500 calories- well you can omit some foods you are not hungry for. But see to it that you eat your 2 100 grams of protein portion during the day.

  1. Daily weighing

Weigh yourself every day. This is usually done in the morning but you will want to weigh more later in the day. Remember to keep track of your weight in your journal.
