Are “Load” Days Necessary for Success with the HCG Treatment Plan?

Wednesday, March 10th, 2010

If you are ready to start the HCG treatment plan, you’ll notice that it is divided into three distinct phases. Each phase is targeted to modify the behavior of each individual dieter as well as trigger a biochemical change that will cause rapid weight loss.

Dieters who follow the Kevin Trudeau protocol will actually have four distinct phases, as Trudeau calls for a detoxifying routine prior to starting the load phase as specified by Dr. A.T.W. Simeons. You may wonder if you can actually get fast weight loss by skipping part of phase 2 of the plan, known as “loading.” Or if you are following the Trudeau protocol, you may want to skip both the detox and the loading to head straight into the VLCD (very low calorie diet) phase of the plan.

What is a “load” day?

If you are following the protocol, then you will have two days set aside before you begin the VLCD, which are called “load” days. During these two days, you are to eat as many high fat foods as you can until you are satiated. Don’t eat enough to make yourself sick, just enough fats that you are priming the pump, so to speak, for weight loss.

Even during these permissive days, the emphasis is not so much on bad fats as it is on olive oils, nut butters, and plant-based fats. After the second day of “loading,” you begin the VLCD protocol.

Why are “load” days important?

Load days are important for two major reasons. First, they allow you to indulge in all the high fat foods you wish for two days before you start the most restrictive phase of the plan. This gives dieters a healthy emotional release before heading into the more difficult, but rewarding, work ahead.

Secondly, the load days really set the stage for the VLCD to come. By loading up on fats and then severely restricting your caloric intake, your body is primed for the biochemical transformation that the hormone will make in your hypothalamus and your body.

What happens if I skip the load days?

Some dieters make the mistake of skipping load days in their haste to start the weight loss rolling on the VLCD phase of the diet. But this can actually backfire. Because loading is so important in setting the stage for the program, skipping it can cause the following issues:

  • Hunger pains, even when taking the hormone and following the VLCD exactly;
  • Fatigue, even when restricting exercise;
  • Plateaus and stalls;
  • Weight gain, in some extreme cases;
  • Cheating, as dieters feel they cannot cope emotionally with the restrictions of the VLCD.

What is This “HCG Diet Direct”?

Tuesday, March 9th, 2010

In a world full of acronyms and abbreviations, text messages that resemble a code more than any actual language gets confusing.  You’ve heard about “HCG.”  You can’t help but be a little perplexed, through.  HIV is human immunodeficiency virus, and we all know what that does.  HPV is human papillomavirus, and it causes warts or cervical cancer, depending on the strand.  But this “HCG” sounds like it’s supposed to be a good thing…

HCG = Human Chorionic Gonadotropin
Actually, it’s HCG, and the “H” does stand for “human,” but it’s no virus, and it’s definitely not a bad thing.  Its human chorionic gonadotropin, and it’s a hormone that works with the hypothalamus gland to regulate body fat and emotions, among other things.  HCG is actually the hormone produced by women’s bodies when they’re pregnant.

A Pregnancy Hormone to Lose Weight
So…wait…it’s the pregnancy hormone, and yet somehow people are using it to lose weight?  Well, strange as it may sound, yes.  First, it’s important to understand that while HCG is produced by pregnant women, it’s found in all of our bodies, female or male, when we’re born.  It’s just that we only have a limited supply to last us a lifetime, and that supply gets used up pretty quickly in this day and age due to our dietary habits, all of those chemicals and processed foods.

HCG Diet Direct, the company you’ve heard of, sells a homeopathic oral form of HCG.  It’s also available in injections, but those are more expensive, harder to come by, and no more effective in spite of the extra trouble.  The oral HCG is all natural, completely safe, will not react with other medications, and will not, in the small percentage contained in the doses of the homeopathic formula, mimic pregnancy.

Really, you can think of HCG as primarily a regulatory agent.  In pregnant women, it helps with the appropriate distribution of nutrition and fat between mother and fetus.  In the rest of us, it helps with the appropriate usage, storage, and distribution of necessary fat.  Learn more about HCG by browsing the article base and blogs.

Don’t Use the HCG Shots–And Other Tips for Success on the Plan

Tuesday, March 9th, 2010

If you want to be successful on the plan, you need to find an affordable, convenient, and pain-free way to get your hormone, which is why we do not recommend using the HCG shots. They have pain, inconvenience, and great expensive working against them, which means it’s highly unlikely that a dieter will stick with them for as long as they need to have success on the program.

So our first tip is to use the oral HCG instead: it’s convenient, pain-free, and quite inexpensive, making it easy to stay with your recommended dosage amount for as long as you want to stay on the plan. Here are some of our other tips for success:

1.    Find a buddy

Studies show that you are more likely to stick to a diet if you have a good support system. Begin by using our website as a way to educate yourself about the plan, but also enlist the support of a buddy. You can call on your buddy when you have questions or are tempted to cheat.

2.    Make a Motivation Collage

If you want to stay motivated while on the plan, begin by making a motivation collage. Ask yourself, what will being slender mean for you? Cut pictures out of magazines that represent what you feel. Glue the collage together and post it on your bathroom mirror or on your refrigerator. Pictures say a thousand words, and a collage can be a really powerful motivational tool for you on your weight loss journey.

3.    Keep a Food Journal

It’s not required to keep a journal on this plan, but it can really help you keep track of your calories. You can also use it to chart your moods and identify possible emotional triggers that lead to eating–and even cheating.

4.    Use Our Tools for Success

We offer many tools that will help you to achieve success on the plan. You can use our Diet Direct Recipe Guide to find delicious and creative ways to stick with your calorie limits while on the plan. Order a bottle of B-Total supplement to increase your energy and help suppress your appetite. We have many products designed to increase your chances of success on the plan, so be sure to check them out!

5.    Believe In Yourself

The most important thing about this plan is your dedication and drive to succeed. Once you make that first step and decide you will lose the weight, you can make it happen. Your attitude on this program will help you make life-changing decisions. It’s a very empowering thing to do! Don’t fight it–live it!

The Premiere Place to Purchase HCG

Tuesday, March 9th, 2010

If you want to purchase HCG or know anything about the oral HCG diet, HCG Diet Direct is the place to go, HCG information central.

HCG Diet Direct sells the homeopathic oral HCG drops.  Their formula is a special, proprietary blend that combines the homeopathic HCG with natural energy enhancers and appetite suppressants.  Clients with past experience using other HCG formulas claim that HCG Diet Direct’s formula wins, hands-down.  They feel better, less hungry, more energy and feeling better tends to lead to better results.

Focus on Success
HCG Diet Direct wants you to have a successful diet. They’re not just about selling you the formula.  Their site is chock-full of helpful tips and advice for incorporating the diet into your normal daily life.  For example, you’re encouraged to keep having family dinners if that’s what you’re used to or start, if it’s not.  But share what you’re learning about healthy living with your family.  It’s not just about losing weight; it’s about promoting a healthier lifestyle for everyone from infants to senior citizens.

Offer Support and Suggestions
It’s about, hopefully, changing the general mentality of our society, the mentality that draws us toward fast food and fast living.  While it might be possible to find pre-made foods that fit the diet’s specifications, HCG Diet Direct promotes the preparation of your own meals and encourages taking the time to enjoy the process.  They offer recipes and suggestions to help you along.

HCG Diet Direct recognizes that investing more time in planning and preparing meals is a big step toward a healthier lifestyle.  The meal suggestions that they offer aren’t complicated or time-consuming. Preparation typically takes half an hour, tops, unless you’re putting something in the crock pot to cook all day.  But you still have to think about it a little more than, say, swinging through the drive-through.

The key point is that that’s okay slowing down a little, taking the time to smell the flowers, as it were.  Enjoy the sunshine on your face; enjoy your health.  Go to Www.Hcgdietdirect.Com and find out how to make it happen.

The HCG Shot No Longer Has the Monopoly

Monday, March 8th, 2010

Once, the HCG shot was the end-all and be-all of HCG dieting, the only way to obtain HCG.  This is the case no longer, because today we have oral HCG.

In my opinion, we’ll soon find the HCG shot dissolving into obscurity, and people will say to each other, “Remember when you could only get HCG through injections?  You had to have a prescription or go to the doctor everyday, or go to one of those fancy weight-loss clinics that only rich people could afford?”  Some people, who don’t remember, may not even believe that that’s true.  It just sounds so…old-fashioned, troublesome.  A hassle in short.

The Expense of HCG Shots
In addition, it is expensive!  Fancy weight loss clinic indeed.  When you know that you can go to HCG Diet Direct and get a 40-day HCG diet kit for less than $300—in fact, less than $250.  That includes a 40-day supply of the drops that you take three times a day, an HCG recipe guide, and two bottles of the B-vitamin supplement.  Oh, and free shipping.  Just imagine trying to get all of that from some fancy clinic!

HCG Injections Kits = Sketchy at Best, Dangerous at Worst
My understanding is that it is sometimes possible to order HCG injection kits from overseas pharmacies without a prescription, but can we say sketchy?  What I hear is that it takes over a month to get to you, and that’s if customs doesn’t decide to confiscate it.  Why go through that when you can easily buy the oral form online, knowing it adheres to FDA regulations, and not have to worry about it being confiscated?

It’ll also get to you in a much more reasonable amount of time, which is important if you’re like most people. Once you’ve decided to diet, you need to start before you lose your motivation.  I mean, it’s like anything else.  That first wave of enthusiasm can be battered down quickly under the pressures of daily life if you don’t act on it while it’s fresh.

So let’s forget the shots…order your oral HCG online today, no prescription, no exclusive clinic, no customs, no hassle!

Buy Oral HCG at Hcgdietdirect.Com

Monday, March 8th, 2010

If you’re looking for a place to buy oral HCG, look no further than hcgdietdirect.Com.

If you’re looking for information on HCG, they have anticipated all of the questions you could ever ask. There is a plethora of information at your disposal just from visiting the site, before you ever buy anything.  They provide you with a sample general diet plan so you know what to expect as well as sample recipes for specific meals.

We Explain HCG to the Fullest
They explain what HCG is and where the homeopathic form of it comes from. In addition, they explain what regulations govern the formula they sell.  They also tell you about how their formula is unique and why people say it works better than other brands on the market.

We Explain Water Retention and Loss
They do more than sell you HCG. They make sure you know about other supplements, like B-12, that your body needs in order to maximize health and the effects of the diet.  They also make sure you understand how the diet works.  For example, they explain how variations and irregularities in the weight registered by the scale can occur due to water retention in spite of following the diet’s instructions to a tee.

Otherwise, such an occurrence would tend to freak people out, thinking the diet wasn’t working, when in fact it’s a normal reaction of the body to initially try to replace lost fat with water while it breaks down the now empty and useless fat cells.  Once the cells have been effectively broken down, a flood of urine and significant loss of weight will occur.  Helpful explanations such as this help set hcgdietdirect.Com apart from companies who are only there to sell you the product.

Testimonials and before-and-after photos from former and current clients are available.  You can receive a remote doctor consultation as part of your package.  If you wish to read the original Dr. Simeons HCG diet protocol to verify the information provided by HCG Diet Direct, it’s there in its entirety for your perusal.  If friendly, helpful and informative support is what you need for a successful diet, you’ve come to the right place.

4 Reasons to Try Oral HCG vs. the HCG Shot

Sunday, March 7th, 2010

Now that you’ve decided to change your life by trying the weight loss program, you need to decide if you will be using an HCG shot or oral HCG drops to get the hormone supplement you need. We have chosen to supply only the sublingual drops for a very important reason: we feel it’s the best way to get the supplement you need at the best price and highest level of efficacy.

In fact, four factors contributed to our decision:

1.    We Manufacture with Pride In the United States

We take the quality of our product very seriously. That’s why we chose to create a homeopathic remedy right here in the United States, using the guidelines set forth by the FDA and the Homeopathic Pharmacopeia of the United States. We are committed to making a quality hormonal supplement and wanted to do so in circumstances we can actively control. There are very few foreign pharmacies who can say the same thing.

2.    We Compound a Proprietary Blend

Our proprietary blend contains all-natural supplements that make it easier to curb your appetite even as they increase your energy. This blend is manufactured by a lab that has been making homeopathic remedies for decades. In fact, our relationship with this lab has lasted for decades. So we know what we are producing and how to make it even more effective for dieters.

3.    We Are Dedicated to the Science Behind the Hormone

So many human chorionic gonadotropin sellers are in it to make a fast buck. We’re in it to help people lose weight. Even more than that, we are committed to the science behind the diet. We have a clinic in Arizona and a physician on-staff, so that we can stay up-to-date with the latest developments in the HCG community. We are trying newer and better ways to help you lose weight by using the sublingual drops. You can even schedule a phone or in-person consultation with our physician to learn more about the diet.

4.    The Drops Are Just as Effective as the Shots

Many people mistakenly believe that the injections are more effective at prompting weight loss than the drops. Actually, studies show that the rate of weight loss remains the same–an astonishing average of a pound per day. However, studies also show that the drops are better at helping dieters curb feelings of hunger, and that they actually increase your energy levels more than the injections do. So in essence, sublingual drops are even more effective for dieters than the shots!

Cheap HCG: A New Concept

Friday, March 5th, 2010

The concept of cheap HCG is a relatively new one, because for the first several decades after its development, the HCG diet was anything but cheap.  It was so not cheap that it was only available at exclusive weight loss clinics, and the majority of the population had never even heard of it. It wasn’t marketed to us, since we wouldn’t have been able to afford it anyway no matter how desperate we were to lose weight.

Homeopathic HCG
Times, my friend, are changing.  HCG is now available in a much less expensive form, and you can even get it online without a prescription.  Before, it was only available via injection, but now there’s an oral homeopathic version, and that’s the version we’re talking about.

Oral HCG is just as effective as the injected form, and much more easily incorporated into your busy life.  It’s also much less expensive, more within the means of most people.  At HCG Diet Direct, the oral formula we sell is not probably the cheapest out there, but it’s still cheaper than injections or exclusive clinics, and its quality is high.

Save Money or Food
The other important money-saving feature of the HCG diet is that it doesn’t require the purchase of a lot of pricey frozen or prepackaged meals.  It just requires a trip to your local supermarket. You’ll probably spend less that you usually do, partly because you’ll be eating less daily, and partly because you’ll be buying lean meats and fresh fruits and vegetables with which to put together your own meals.

Meals that are made for you may seem more convenient, but they’re almost always more expensive, whether it’s a T.V. dinner or from a deli or restaurant.  If you’re away from home at lunchtime, you’ll also be packing healthy, diet-appropriate lunches rather than eating out everyday.  Frequently, these lunches can consist of dinner leftovers.  If you want to eat out with your coworkers, you’ll learn to modify dishes to suite the needs of the diet.

You’ll be amazed at how simple and not expensive it can be.

The Diet Plan for HCG Diet Drops

Thursday, March 4th, 2010

You’ve finally almost made the decision to order HCG diet drops. You know people who’ve had a lot of success with them.  But you want a little better idea of exactly what you’re in for with this oral HCG diet plan.

Well, let’s assume that you’re going to do the 26-day plan.  From the get-go, you’ll want to drink lots of water, a minimum of two liters daily.  For the first two days that you take the drops, you’ll actually want to eat a ton of fatty foods.  This is an important part of the plan, because it gives your metabolism a boost and sets your HCG level.

You’re going to take the drops for 23 days.  The last three days, you won’t be taking drops, but you’ll still adhere to the diet plan.  These last few days are meant to flush all of the HCG out of your system.

Food Choices
Daily food choices are as follows.  For breakfast, you can have tea or coffee with no sugar.  A suggested substitute sweetener is stevia, a South American herb that’s actually about 200 times sweeter than sugar—and it’s all natural, with no calories.  You can have one tablespoonful of milk, but that’s all the milk you get for 24 hours, so use it wisely.  You may also choose to have one of your two daily fruit servings with breakfast.

For lunch, you can have 100 grams of lean meat.  It can be beef, chicken breast, crab, fresh white fish, lobster, shrimp, or turkey.  You get a vegetable and one breadstick or one Melba toast.  You can have a fruit serving with lunch, or you may want to save it for a snack.  For dinner, you get the same choices as for lunch.

Tea, coffee, and plain or mineral water can be consumed as much as you want but no sugar!  You can have one lemon’s worth of juice daily, used for whatever you want, as well as seasonings.  No oil, butter, or salad dressing!

You’ll find that it’s a remarkably easy diet to follow, so order your HCG today!
