HCG Diet January 2021

The holiday season is over. We hope that you took the time during the holiday season to enjoy time with your family and friends eating lots and lots of happy, yummy foods without worrying too much about the carbs, calories, and fat. Though it’s not smart to stuff yourself during the holiday festivities, enjoying good foods with friends and family is something to cherish.

Since holiday festivities are over, you might want to kick back into a healthy routine. Luckily, January provides a turning point for everyone to make changes more easily than at other times of the year.

Why choose the HCG Diet?

The HCG Diet is great for those who want to change their trajectory in terms of weight gain during the holidays. Whether you have heard about it before or not, the HCG Diet is simple and effective, unlike other popular diets. With the HCG diet, you’ll be able to lose weight faster, around a pound or two each day. It is suited not only to those who want to lose over 30 pounds but also to those whose goal is to lose 10 to 15 pounds. It is safe for both men and women.

Aside from weight loss, another benefit of the HCG Diet is that it keeps you from losing muscle while you diet. The HCG hormone promotes muscle building while you lose fats. This set this diet apart from other weight loss programs. Typically, when you restrict your calorie intake you lose a high amount of muscle mass. Your metabolism slows down so much that you are at risk of gaining the weight back so quickly. With the HCG hormone present in your system, you prevent this from happening.

How does the HCG Diet work?

HCG, which stands for human chorionic gonadotrophin, is a pro-hormone that your body can produce naturally. HCG is produced by the placenta of pregnant women. It’s the hormone that keeps the progesterone high vital for a safe and successful pregnancy. It may come as a surprise for a natural hormone that the body makes during pregnancy to be injected for weight loss. But that’s exactly what the HCG Diet is about.

The HCG diet combines the use of HCG hormone and low-calorie restrictions to reset your metabolism. These combinations will allow you to lose around 1 pound or two each day. During the diet, you are allowed to have only lunch and dinner with a protein, a serving of vegetables, a piece of fruit, and a slice of carb (Melba toast or Grissini stick) per meal.

HCG is available in oral drops, pellet, pill, and injection but I suggest that you use the injection form as it is more effective than drops or pellet. If you are worried about the needles, well, the needles are so small and the injected amount is so minuscule.

HCG is effective in suppressing the appetite. More research in this area is needed, but anecdotal reports suggest HCG could get you through your low-calorie diet without making you feel weak, hungry, and irritable all day.

Christmas Cheating While on the HCG Diet

The holiday season is here! It’s a time for celebration with friends and family. And not to mention, food seems to be everywhere. There will be lots and lots of parties, Christmas lunches, and New Year’s Eve dinner. Doing any diet during the holidays can be tough but it doesn’t have to be impossible.

Three Options for HCG Diet Eating Over this Holiday Season

  1. Stick with the HCG Diet protocol: If this the route you want to take, then great. I love your dedication. One piece of advice though – never rely on “willpower” when you can plan for the “just in cases.”
  2. Modify the protocol: This option is a lot easier to follow rather than to strictly adhere to the protocol. A lot of dieters, in fact, alter their protocol, so they can enjoy this holiday season without feeling guilty.
  3. Go crazy over the holiday: Proper timing and planning are what you need. Have whatever you want, indulge, and accept the consequences whatever they may be. Choosing this option can be cool but be warned, as this could lead to days of weight loss stall. If it’s okay with you, then you’re all set.

On modifying the protocol

Here’s how to enjoy the buffet. If you do it right, you can enjoy yourself and still lose weight.

  • The first round at the buffet is the most important.  Stick to the protocol foods FIRST.  Think about eating your salad, vegetables, and turkey, and enjoy them! Eat just a few bites of the stuffing that you’d really like on your second trip to the buffet.
  • Proper portion. Have about 3 to 4 bite sizes at a time. As the saying goes, “No bite is as good as the first, ever”. Usually, it only takes a few bites to feel satisfied with a particular food. When you have 3 to 4 bites, you will realize that you are satisfied and you no longer need more. If you find you want more, repeat with the same portion. Never put more than one portion on your plate at a time.
  • Drink plenty of water even if other beverages are being served. Drinking plenty of water will help control your cravings and urges to overeat. For a twist, you may use sparkling water then add some lemon and Stevia.
  • On having alternatives. Whether it’s a family gathering, office party, or shindigs with friends, your chances of slipping up around the holidays and gain a few pounds are big especially if you came unprepared. So, be ready with your plan B. It’s better to be prepared than having regrets in the end. Know what foods will be serve during the event and be smart and ready with other alternatives.
  • Plan ahead. All it takes is proper planning. Start your diet on Thanksgiving Day just in time for loading days so you may end right before Christmas day. If you know that you are going to be on the HCG diet whether it is on the very low calorie or maintenance phase, you may not be able to partake in the full feast, but at least you will have something to eat that won’t ruin your diet.
  • Eat backward and take your time. Rather than eating the proteins, eat the greens first. It’s a great trick to give your body time to feel satisfaction coming from good healthy foods. And not to mention, to make you feel full and keep your body from craving the unhealthy foods on the buffet table.
  • Keep moving. We all tend to overindulge during the holiday season and it’s not a crime though. At least, keep yourself moving so you may burn those extra calories gain from feasting on holiday foods. Walk at least 20 minutes in the evening and the morning.
  • Stay away from refined sugars and carbohydrates. These are desserts, bread rolls, and pasta salad. Stick to fresh fruits with a dab of fresh cream and brown rice. When it comes to meat, avoid fatty meat like pork chops. Go for BBQ because all the fat in the meat is drained away. For the celebration toast, avoid soft drinks or sprite and opt for drinks that will do less damage to your weight loss goals like vodka, soda water, and lime.

On sticking with the protocol

  • Stay focus. Don’t lose sight of your goal and how far you’ve come. Your weight will slow down or may stall for 3 to 6 days if you will get off track during the holiday parties. You don’t want this to happen.
  • Distract yourself. If the going gets really tough, and you really want to get your hands on that eggnog, find something to distract yourself. Play with the children present at the party or you could go help clean in the kitchen. This will take your mind off the food cravings and it can be fun at some time.

Remember this

Even the most motivated person in the world can slip up and cheat on purpose especially during this time of the year. It’s not the end of the world. Have everything in moderation and enjoy yourself but a bit of planning can help reduce those guilty feelings as well as keeping you on track to looking fabulous in the new year.

Surviving the Holidays on the HCG Diet

How many holiday parties are you planning to attend this year?  If you’re like most people, you’ll probably have quite a few on your calendar.

Holidays can be the most difficult time of the year for dieters. It’s kind of tough for anyone trying to be healthy and fit! It can also be so frustrating when you’re surrounded by constant food temptations at this time of year. Whether you are at work or attending a holiday party, receiving a platter of holiday cookies or a glass of wine- the temptation to pick the wrong food is almost overwhelming. The effects of choosing the wrong kind of foods and overeating can ultimately sabotage your weight-loss efforts. Before the season really gets going, let’s take a few minutes to make a plan.

For those who are still doing the very low-calorie diet:

  • The protocol is quite simple and easy to follow and you know exactly what to do, what and what not to eat.
  • Since you are not allowed to just eat anything being served on the Christmas party table, focus on people and not on foods. Remember that the Holiday season is about spending time with loved ones. So, let’s celebrate and focus on what’s really important in life. Enjoy.
  • Being heading out to the party venue, see if you can find out the holiday menu to serve. If the menu goes against the protocol, why not bring your food? Treat yourself with a more expensive entrée like fillet or crab. Heat and serve your phase 2 meal at the Christmas party table.
  • Cook some chicken with a side of savory. Choose the leanest cut and make sure to remove any excess fat before cooking them.
  • To celebrate without feeling deprived, spend extra time, and effort in your food preparation. For example, instead of eating a whole orange, cut up a ½ orange with ½ cup of strawberries in a fancy dessert dish.
  • Sip some sparkling water with lemon or hot teas at holiday parties.
  • Pack some apple slices dusted with cinnamon for a snack when you get hungry.
  • If you can’t help but indulge during this holiday season, have a planned interruption on phase 2. Stop dieting for 3 days or 72 hours then get back on track after the planned interruption. You will definitely gain weight during planned interruption but many HCG dieters choose this plan rather than missing out on a very special occasion.

For those who are in phase 3:

  • Avoid sugar and starches by all means. During phase 3, your body’s metabolism resets, so it’s crucial that you stay true to the protocol. You may still be able to enjoy holiday favorites without sugar and carbs.
  • For dessert, treat yourself with sugar-free whipped creamy fruity salad. Use whipped cream flavored with vanilla and sweetened with stevia on fresh fruits. Throw in some almonds or walnuts and you’ll have a delightful treat.
  • Don’t show up at holiday parties on an empty stomach to avoid eating everything in sight. Eat a healthy snack and drink plenty of fluids beforehand.
  • Don’t choose a seat next to the party table.
  • If you are asked to bring a dish, well, prepare a healthy, and HCG diet-friendly one. Take fresh green beans instead of green bean casserole.
  • Skip any foods swimming in creamy and heavy sauces.
  • Stick to finger foods of fresh veggies and fruits. Avoid creamy dips and go for yogurt or fat-free sour cream with a splash of lemon juice.
  • If there are different plate sizes served on the table, choose the small one and you know why for sure.
  • Scan the buffet table first and map it out in your mind before you load your plate.
  • Go heavy on salad, roasted turkey, and fresh veggies but go light on things that are creamy and saucy.
  • Take small portions and enjoy every bite. The most intense enjoyment comes from the first bite.
  • Chew your foods longer than normal to trick your brain into thinking that you’ve eaten more. Savor each bite.
  • Stop eating when you feel satisfied, not when you are stuffed.
  • Be careful with all drinks. Non-alcoholic drinks can be full of calories and sugar, and alcoholic drinks also contain calories and sugar. Both can blunt inhibitions and trigger overeating.

Above all, celebrate this special time of the year. Always remember that the most important part of the holiday is spending time with your loved ones.

HCG Diet on Holiday Season?

Holiday parties always include a lot of food. Most people will make the HCG Diet as their New Year’s resolution. However, if you are truly dedicated and serious in losing weight then why wait after the holiday to do the HCG Diet? Why not start now?

Reasons why you should consider doing the HCG Diet over this holiday

  • Proving dedication 

Doing the HCG Diet over the holiday shows real dedication. During this crucial time, you’re serious about shedding unwanted pounds and leaving a healthier life. Dieting over the holidays is a way to reaffirm your dedication and prove to yourself that you have the willpower and self-control to lose weight at any time of the year. Losing unwanted pounds and inches off your body is a real morale booster and supplies a great of an accomplishment. 

  • A jump start on your New Year’s resolution 

Losing weight is statistically the most widely used resolution for the New Year.

  • Learning self-control 

Starting your diet this holiday season will teach you self-control. However, if you were to start the diet, you should be at least a few weeks into the program already so when Christmas comes, you will be able to have better self-control. You’ll be able to have a meal in a proper portion size. Though learning self-control may sound easy it’s quite challenging for it requires physical and mental discipline.

When to start the hcg diet?

It’s all about planning. Start your loading days over the food-based holiday such as Thanksgiving where you can enjoy the festivities while indulging in high-fat high-calorie foods. If you will start the HCG Diet on a Thanksgiving, then you can transition into the second phase for almost four weeks before New Year’s Eve. Before the New Year’s Eve, you’ll be able to shed a considerable amount of weight, so you’ll look slender and elegant in your holiday outfit for Christmas.

When New Year comes, you’ll be entering Phase three or the maintenance phase of the HCG Diet where you can gradually increase your food choices and the calories. You can truly celebrate the New Year with a bit more food and a healthier, slimmer physique.

The holiday season is a great way to start losing weight and maintain your health. You will not have to worry about not fitting into your clothes. Why wait- don’t let the festivities come in the way of your weight loss. Start your diet over the holiday.

Regulating Other Hormones that Causes Weight Gain

Losing weight is more challenging, but it can even be more challenging when your hormones are not balanced. Below are some hormones that you’ll want to get in check to make sure you are on the healthiest weight possible. 

  1. Leptin 

Leptin hormone tells you that you are full, and it is time for you to stop eating. It’s the hormone that regulates your appetite and is meant to keep you slim and away from overeating.  

When you eat foods rich in sugar, fructose’s oversupply is converted into fat and gets deposited in the liver, belly, and other areas of your body. Your fat cells will secrete more and more leptin, and your body gets insensitive. Your brain will stop receiving signals of “stop eating,” and this vicious cycle will lead to weight gain.  

  1. Ghrelin 

Ghrelin is a hunger hormone. Usually, whenever you’re hungry, your ghrelin would be too high and drop after having a meal. For obese people, their ghrelin is the same before and after having a meal. As a result, you eat more frequently eating, leading to weight gain. Your ghrelin hormone can also rise when you are on a very strict diet or fasting.  

  1. Insulin 

Insulin’s primary purpose is to help carry the glucose into the cells to be used as energy or stored as fat. But overconsumption of foods loaded with sugars like processed foods, alcohol, and artificial sweeteners can make your body resistant to insulin. Your muscles will not recognize the insulin, and the glucose will remain in your bloodstream. That finally leads to weight gain and diabetes.  

  1. Cortisol 

Cortisol is a stress hormone produced by the adrenal gland. Cortisol plays a vital role in the proper functioning of the body. Its primary function is to: 

  • Decrease the stress level by increasing the blood sugar level.  
  • Aids in the metabolism of protein, fat, and carbohydrates 

A higher level of this hormone would result in overeating. It increases visceral fat deposition and fat cell maturation, thus leading to weight gain.  

Given the poor lifestyle choices nowadays, your body can be in a constant state of stress allowing your adrenal gland to secrete more cortisol hormone, which could be why you are gaining weight despite your weight loss efforts.  

  1. Estrogen and progesterone 

Estrogen and progesterone are female sex hormones. Your body can function properly only if there’s a balance between these two hormones. Any imbalances in levels of these hormones can lead to weight gain.  

  • Too high estrogen causes weight gain. It irritates the cells that produce insulin, making you insulin resistant. As a result, your blood sugar level rises, and you gain weight. 
  • Too low estrogen can make you gain weight also. Typically, low estrogen happens during the menopausal period, where your ovary no longer produces estrogen. Your body may start to look for estrogen elsewhere. One good source is fat cells. To put things back in balance, your body will convert all the extra energy into a fat deposit on your belly.  
  • A drop in progesterone can increase your appetite and slow down your metabolism, leading to weight gain. Progesterone levels can drop due to stress, menopause, and the use of contraceptives.  
  1. Peptide YY (PYY) 

Peptide YY is a hormone produced in the small intestine. It helps limit the food intake and reduce appetite. Regulating the Peptide YY hormone may help reduce weight gain. Foods that may help increase the PYY include fiber-rich foods, proteins, and low carb foods.  

  1. Thyroid hormones 

Your thyroid gland produces three thyroid hormones. The three hormones function together in regulating your metabolism, heart rate, sleep, growth, and brain development.  

Sometimes, these three hormones become imbalanced. Underproduction causes hypothyroidism and is often associated with slow metabolism and weight gain.  

  1. Melatonin 

Melatonin is a hormone that regulates wakefulness and sleep. When you sleep, your body releases growth hormones, which help heal, build lean muscles and improve body composition. When you do not get enough sleep, these processes get disrupted, causing stress and inflammation-induced weight gain.  

  1. Glucocorticoids 

This hormone helps reduce inflammation that can sometimes lead to unfortunate outcomes like weight gain. However, the effect of this hormone opposes that of insulin. It doesn’t favor sugar as a fuel for the body.  An imbalance of glucocorticoids can lead to weight gain.  

  1. Testosterone 

Testosterone hormone, also known as androgen, is a male sex hormone produced by females in a small amount. Together with the female sex hormone, this hormone helps regulate, repair, maintain the reproductive tissues, bone mass of women and improve libido. However, high stress and age can significantly decrease the testosterone level, leading to bone loss, muscle mass loss, and obesity.  

How Can the HCG Diet Balance out all these hormones?

The HCG diet utilizes the HCG or Human Chorionic Gonadotrophin hormone produced in the placenta of pregnant women. The HCG hormone has been used in treating fertility issues in both men and women and has been used for decades in weight loss programs such as the HCG Diet.

When injected, the hormone allows your body to burn the stored fats to be the primary fuel source. One of the many benefits of using the HCG diet is that the HCG hormone can regulate other hormones in your body responsible for weight gain. It balances out your other body hormones, so you may lose weight safely and maintain a healthy weight for good.
