Time To Ignore The 2-Pounds Rules

When you didn’t eat carbs and fruit during P2

There are times during your Phase 2 of the HCG Diet you have totally removed the Fruits and carb choices just to beat your CRAVINGS and to make P2 much easier. Now, what will happen to your end weight? Practically, you will be losing much weight without fruits and carbs on your P2 and it’s gonna be an artificially low weight.

What had happened? Removing the fruits and carbs will make your diet super low. In the end, your body will tap into your stored glycogen for energy. Glycogen is not FAT- it’s basically stored water in your muscles. So, when you go to the next phase and stabilize, your body will hold onto the glycogen and refills the lost one as quickly as possible. Naturally, your body will regain several pounds, most of which are water and glycogen. Your weight will go higher than the 2-pounds range. My advice-try to stick with the HCG Diet P2 protocol.

When you have started some exercise on P3

Exercise on P3 won’t stabilize your weight right away. Here’s why… During exercise, your muscle retains weight. When you work out and sore, your body is breaking down the muscle tissue but will rebuild it into better and stronger one. For your muscle to rebuild its tissue, it needs water. As your muscles are building up the tissue, your body has to retain extra water.

The more trained your muscle is the more it stores glycogen. So, when you go back to working out on the P3, your muscle will store water more quickly which causes you to gain more weight than someone else in P3. Staying within the 2-pounds range is quite impossible to do. Just make sure you keep out sugars and starches out of the picture.

When you have done several steak days

Your weight isn’t stabilizing no matter how many steak days you’ve made. Still, you go up higher than the 2-pounds rule. Well, just give it a go and see if you can stabilize a little bit higher than 2-pounds range. If it seems impossible to stabilize despite all your efforts, considering leaving the rule behind can be a great idea rather than doing the steak day over and over again. A steak day is essentially fasting and is NOT healthy. If you find yourself doing the steak day every other week for weeks then definitely it’s not okay. Why not leave the rule behind and go up higher, perhaps, that is the way to go.

Clean Carbohydrate Options for P3 of the HCG Diet

What are clean carbs? They are also known as complex carbs made up of a complicated molecule that’s being broken down slowly in the body. Some examples of clean carbohydrates are starchy veggies, whole grains and beans. These carbs are rich in fibers and antioxidants that can keep you full for a longer period of time. That means to say you only need them in a small amount. Since they contain a high level of starch, they are not allowed during phase 3 of the HCG Diet.

Phase 3 of the HCG Diet allows you to increase your calorie intake each day that includes carbohydrates. However, it is very vital that you consume only non-starchy clean carbs instead of the starchy ones. Understanding the difference in carbs can help you during your P3 challenge.

Below are lists of clean carbs that you can choose for P3:

  1. Leafy greens

Spinach, chards, collard, romaine lettuce and kale are just some of the leafy greens that can give approximately 3.6 grams of clean carbs per 100 grams. They are also rich in B vitamins and magnesium which reduces stress and anxiety. Leafy greens are one of the best sources of carbs that can nourish your body. You can eat leafy greens alongside fish or chicken. You may as well blend it into a nutritious smoothie with some fruit for an afternoon deli.

  • Apples

Apples, when consumed in moderation, are an excellent source of fibers and clean carbs. You may eat apples for a snack or mix it with a leafy greens salad. You can also make a smoothie for a sweet snack.

  • Coconut flour

Coconut flour is an excellent form of dietary fiber and carbs. It contains approximately 64.8 grams of clean carbs per 100 grams. You can replace your normal flour to make bread and biscuits during the P3.

  • Berries

Berries are an excellent source of clean carbs. You can get about 14 grams of clean carbs for every 100 grams of berries. Berries are packed with an antioxidant that helps you combat harmful free-radicals. They are also great ingredients for a smoothie or you may eat them as a snack.

  • Broccoli

Broccoli is highly recommended for P3. It is a nutritional powerhouse that can give you about 7 grams of clean carbs for every 100 grams. It is rich in Vitamin B6 and calcium. You can eat broccoli as a side dish or blend it into a smoothie. You can even fry it with some eggs and coconut oil for breakfast.

Clean carbohydrates can leave you fuller for a longer period of time. They are also an excellent source of nutrition that you can eat in moderation during Phase 3 of the HCG Diet.

Mistakes during Phase 3 of the HCG Diet

Gaining weight during the maintenance phase? Here are some top mistakes during Phase 3 of the HCG Diet that you might want to look into:

#1 You are eating too many calories

  • Eating too many calories might cause your body to start gaining weight all of a sudden because of the overabundance of calories. Your body might think to start storing those extra calories for future use. We recommend that you aim for 1500 calories a day during the maintenance phase. OR better consider this guide:

During the FIRST WEEK on P3: 900 to 1000 calories per day

During the SECOND WEEK on P3: 1100 TO 1200 calories per day

During the THIRD WEEK on P3: 1300 TO 1450 calories per day

#2 Having hidden starches or sugars

  • Be cautious with introducing foods into your body with hidden sugars like sugar-coated vitamins, eating something with cornstarch or eating meats with sugary broth. When buying foods, read the product labels and be mindful of sugar and starch content. Avoid food products with dextrose, fructose, maltose and anything that end with “ose”.

#3 Eating too many cautionary foods

  • Your first week can be excited because finally, you can have your freedom back in terms of eating. However, you are still restricted from eating too much during the first week of the HCG Diet. You also have to avoid eating sugars, carbs, starchy veggies and sweet fruits.
  • AT around the second or the third week, slowly add some of the restricted foods like sweet fruits and starchy vegetables.

#4 Not tracking your daily food intake

  • Keeping track of your food intake every day is as important as getting your daily weight. Tracking your foods can help you identify what food triggers you to gain weight.

#5 Insufficient intake of protein

  • Protein-rich foods are an essential part of Phase 3. Insufficient amount of proteins in your diet will make it hard for you to keep your weight off compared with dieters who keep proteins in their meal regularly.

#6 Not taking your weight every day

  • Keep track of your weight every day just as you keep track of your food intake. This will help you determine if you need to do the steak day because you go beyond the 2-pound rule or not.

#7 Adding too many foods at a time

  • Give your body some time to adjust to the new foods. Do not add too many foods at a time. If you are not sure what and how much foods to eat check this out The First Week of HCG Diet Phase 3.

7 Diet Secrets for Phase 3 of the HCG Diet

Stabilizing during phase 3 of the HCG Diet is one of the biggest challenges every dieter experience. But some few diets strategy can make all the difference from stabilizing to being successful on the weight loss journey.

Below are top 7 diet secrets for Phase 3 of the HCG Diet.

1. Eat normal calories again

During the stabilization phase, you do not have to continue dieting again as many dieters do. Do not assume that you will gain weight right away when you start reintroducing more calories back into your diet. One secret in transitioning into the next phase successfully is not to continue restricting your calorie intake. Increase your calories to a normal amount:

For women: 1700 to 2000 calories a day

For men: 27000 to 3000 calories a day

Your body needs to create a new set point of eating a variety of healthy oils and proteins, a moderate amount of fruits and non-starchy vegetables.

2. Use the Glycemic index

To help you choose the appropriate foods for this phase use the Glycemic index. Foods that are less than 30 in the Glycemic index scale and foods that are rich in protein and fibers can balance your blood sugar. Foods that are low in Glycemic index scale can help you maintain your weight loss during phase 3.

3. Read food labels before buying and consuming them

By reading the food labels you can avoid sugars and starches during P3 of the HCG Diet. This will also prevent you from going above the two-pound range. Stay away from foods with dextrose, maltose, glucose, fructose and anything with “ose”. When you read the food label, you can also prevent unhealthy additives such as artificial sweeteners like aspartame, sucrose and monosodium glutamate or MSG.

4. Weigh yourself every day

Even though you have passed the very low calorie phase of the HCG Diet you still have to continue weighing yourself. Do this religiously. The first two weeks of this phase can pretty give you a swing on your diet. It is very vital therefore to document your weight and make it sure that you stay within the 2-pound range.

5. Eat clean

Eat clean and healthy during phase 3 of the HCG Diet. Choose foods that will give you more energy and foods that will nourish your body. Do away with your unhealthy eating lifestyle and make a big change by eating clean and healthily. Go for more proteins, vegetables and approved phase 3 fruits.

6. Take extra time between rounds

You can do multiple rounds to achieve your goal weight but you have to take some time before proceeding to the next round. Longer breaks between each round will help prevent your body from developing immunity. Longer breaks will also help your body to recharge, rest and to practice healthier eating habits. Breaks between each round:

Round 1 to Round 2: 6 weeks

Round 2 to Round 3: 8 weeks

Round 3 to Round 4: 10 weeks

Round 4 to Round 5: 12 weeks

For every succeeding round, two weeks is added. Skipping the long break and starting right away with your next round can only make you develop immunity and gain weight.

7. Eat varieties of foods

During phase 3 of the HCG Diet, you can have varieties of foods. Start eating more protein, vegetables and fruit choices but avoid starch and sugars. Your body needs additional nutrition after restricting yourself with only limited choices of foods.

Difficulties during Phase 3 of the HCG Diet

Phase 3 of the HCG Diet is the very time for you to start introducing back varieties of foods into your diet. However, you don’t want to do everything so fast. You must take things slow; a step at a time or else you might encounter some difficulties causing you to gain weight as you go through your next phase. Here are some top difficulties dieters might encounter as they go through the maintenance phase.

Feeling Full

You might struggle to consume the 700 calories during your first few days with phase 3 of the HCG Diet because your body is used with only consuming 500 calories a day. Eating the whole 700 calories will make you feel bloated and stuffed. But then remember this is perfectly normal. What you can do is to consume the required amount of calories so you can continue to successfully follow the HCG Diet protocol.

Over Consuming and Overwhelming

Some dieters find Phase 3 of the HCG Diet very overwhelming that they wanted to consume as many varieties of foods as they can and they want to do it quickly. However, this practice won’t do any good to your body. They are practically gorging! Gorging during this phase will only cause your weight to increase rapidly. Everything that you have worked hard during the previous phases will practically be forfeited. My advice- abstains from such a lifestyle alteration. Don’t let yourself get off and on the HCG Diet train just because you screw up. When you screw up once don’t do it again. What to do if you’ll gain weight? You can consider doing the steak day.

Carb Additions

When doing this phase, be extremely cautious with your carbs choices like bread, potatoes, pastries and rice. One slip with your carb can cause a dramatic change in your weight. Carbs are addictive. Once you start introducing them back into your body, you will crave for even more.

What to do to pass through Phase 3 of the HCG Diet without difficulty?

  • Do not eat any starches and sugars during Phase 3.
  • Pay attention to calories
  • Introduce all foods gradually
  • Cut-out whatever food is causing you to gain weight.
  • Introduce only a tiny bit of fats, dairy and nuts.
  • Keep your weight always within the two-pound range after your last day weight.

Phase 3 of the HCG Diet is the final leg of your diet journey. Just stay focus and you will take control of your weight.
