How long do I need to wait before I can start with another round?

This is a very common question that most HCG dieters ask. Don’t get too excited. I know you want to get rid of those excess weights and get that beautiful body thing faster. However, there is a waiting time and it’s very important to DO the waiting time for its part of the hcg diet protocol. You can’t past the 23 days or the 46 days in a row.

Each round of HCG diet goes anywhere from a minimum of 23 days to a maximum of 46 days. You start with loading days (2 days) then Phase 2-Very low calorie diet phase (3-26 days or 3-46 days). When the main part of the diet is complete, there is a lock-in period of 3 weeks. This is the Phase 3 or the Maintenance phase (3 weeks). You have to complete each phase of the protocol. Once Phase 3 is complete you must wait a minimum of 6 weeks before you start with your second round. You can do multiple rounds to hit your goal weight.  Now when you do multiple rounds your break must be lengthened each time.

Waiting time for each round of the hCG diet as per Dr. Simeons instruction

Round 1 to Round 2:      6 weeks total

Round 2 to Round 3:      8 weeks total

Round 3 to Round 4:    10 weeks total

Round 4 to Round 5:    12 weeks total

2 weeks is added for every successive round. The amount of excess fats you need to shed will determine the number of rounds you should complete.

Remember, waiting time is VERY important. Why?

If you skip this break and start right away with your next round, you will see no further weight loss. According to Dr. Simeon, some dieter seemed to develop immunity to the hormone. When your body becomes immune to the effect of the hormone your weight loss will start to decrease. But once you take a break between each round your body will renew and you’ll likely to lose a lot of weight on your next round.

You may be asking right now when the best time is to have your shot of hCG diet. To get right down to it, there is actually no particular time to have your shot.  Say on your first day you started at 8 in the morning and then the next day at 8:10. Don’t worry it won’t affect your weight loss. It’s not going to cause you harm at all.

Dr. Simeons recommend hCG injections should be given in the morning. But what if your work is at night time? No worries too. It won’t affect your weight loss even if it’s changed around a bit.

The thing with hCG is:

1. No matter what time of the day you had your shot do your best to have it at the same time each day. You don’t have to take your shot at exactly the same time each day but see to it that they aren’t that close together. Your timing will keep a good amount of hormone in your body at all time. The hormone actually stays in your system for up to 3 days after your last shot.

Now if you missed a shot don’t freak out. Continue with your diet and have your shot the next day on the normal schedule. Always keep an hCG diet journal with you in case you cannot remember whether you have your shot or not.

2. See to it that you refrigerate your hCG properly and good to go. If in case you failed to refrigerate it for at least 6 hours, you have to replace it then. The hormone inside won’t be that effective anymore.

Most dieters choose to have their shots in the morning right after shower and weighing-ins. This would make it easier for them to remember. It can be difficult and challenging to remember to have your daily shot so I suggest that you associate it with your other daily routine. This will greatly help you.

It doesn’t matter what time of the day you choose to have your shot. As long there is a hormone that gets into your system every day and you keep your hcg vial refrigerated then you’re good to go.
