Fast Weight Loss Diets: Are They Designed To Fail?

Wednesday, September 29th, 2010

Potential dieters are often drawn to fast weight loss diets. They figure that it will be the simplest, easiest way to lose the extra pounds. They are looking for those intense weight loss results. Some dieters find themselves frustrated. They jump from program to program without weight loss success.

When it comes to fast weight loss diets there are several common mistakes that make it nearly impossible to succeed. One of the very first is lack of commitment. This doesn’t mean that we’re worried about how long you’ve been dating your current significant other or how long you’ve been waiting to set a date for the wedding. That’s an entirely different set of issues. Commitment issues in relation to weight loss can knock a dieter off kilter er than anything else.

Commitment issues can ally affect probability for success on a weight loss plan:

1. It decreases the chances that dieters will be able to withstand temptation.

2. Easy Exit: dieters that aren’t fully committed find themselves able to easily rationalize adjustments to the rules. A lack of commitment to the diet is actually a lack of commitment to the rules. The reason there are rules is to design a situation in which weight will be lost. Failure to follow the rules really indicates that the individual shouldn’t really be “on” the diet at all.

3. Too many options: lack of commitment leaves dieters with too many options. When a dieter is fully committed the options are much more limited. Eating something that isn’t okay for the diet at hand isn’t an option. Taking a day off isn’t an option. Switching from one diet to another before the program is completed isn’t an option.

4. Disbelief in the weight loss possibilities: lack of commitment also leaves dieters with the ability to sway back and forth in their own faith in the system. After making a weight loss program choice…dieters need to believe that it’s going to work. This is a vital aspect of “committing” to fast weight loss diets.

Everyone has issues. You have issues. And I’ve got issues. My neighbor has issues. Your neighbor has issues. But what we need to be doing now that we’re all aware we’ve got issues is identifying them. Once we know what our issues are we’ll be able to move forward and overcome it. Can you overcome your issues? Can you be a committed dieter? If not…it’s probably best that you just accept it and go on and stop your half hearted attempts to diet; they’re wasted.

Dieting requires commitment. Fast weight loss diets in particular typically require higher levels of commitment than other diets. You either commit to follow the rules and lose weight or you don’t and then you don’t lose weight. “Dieting” and not following the rules is an utter waste of time.

But if you are able to claim your lack of commitment issue you might be able to overcome it. Some can recognize their issue and then go on and fully commit to a program that offers weight loss results. They can make an exception and commit to a fast weight loss diet; especially if it’s a short term program that offers maximum results. Find a suitable program and commit to it!

Day Four! Chad’s On his Homeopathic HCG Weight Loss Plan

Tuesday, September 21st, 2010

If you’ve been following us in the daily chronicling of Chad’s homeopathic HCG Diet Direct weight loss plan you’ll know that he’s now on Day 4. He wanted weight loss and so far…it’s working out for him quite nicely.

On the first two days Chad followed protocol by loading; eating as much as he could and aiming for high calorie and high fat foods. It helps the body absorb the homeopathic HCG weight loss remedy.

Day three is when the low calorie portion of the diet starts. Chad did a great job. He followed the protocol. He did notice that when he went to bed…he went to bed hungry.

238.5 pounds was Chad’s weight on Day 4.

He’s shocked and extremely happy about the 7.5 pound drop in weight. And that’s just from Day 3 to Day 4! He figured (after Day 3) that he had stumbled upon the secret to Hollywood celeb’s weight loss success. While “normal” people struggle through long term dieting over and over…Hollywood celebs seem able to drop amounts of weight within weeks when they have weight change requirements for a new role. Celebs obviously found homeopathic HCG weight loss plans long ago.

Chad tried his hardest to stay on protocol for Day 4. And he did quite well. The day began with 2 servings of Stash Coconut Mango Oolong tea. (He makes a tall cup to last until lunch). Lunch was turkey with spinach and an apple on the side. He purposefully saved his other fruit for after dinner to help him avoid being hungry before bed.

On Day 4 Chad noticed that he had a headache. He figured that it might have something to do with the diet so he made a note to give the HCG Diet Direct support center a call to find out about the program and “headaches.”

Chad did have a bit of a headache and he does tend to feel a bit hungry in the late evenings, but other than that Chad is just excited about the weight loss he’s already achieved. And he’s excited to see more drop off.

Weight Loss Plan Designs

Friday, August 20th, 2010

Isn’t it funny how dieters seem to all make the same mistake? It’s not one type of dieter or dieters on one type of weight loss program or dieters of a certain weight or age bracket. All dieters make the same common, universal, obvious mistake. It’s so repetitive. It’s the lack of a plan.

Most people have to work really hard to lose weight. It’s a desperate struggle to get a number that seems impossible to reach. There are the lucky few that can try to eat healthy all day and then reward themselves with a bowl of their favorite ice cream each night when they succeed, but these people are not normal. They have special genes or something. And if you’re one of these special people…you really don’t need to be reading articles on weight loss so move along…

Now…for the rest of us (the normal folk) who really want to lose weight, but find it more than difficult there is the need for a good weight loss plan. The weight loss plan isn’t referring to the type of diet or weight loss program. This is a personal plan that you set down for yourself.

Your weight loss plan should include a few vital elements:

1. Weight loss goal

2. A time limit: don’t make this a never ending battle. Give yourself a firm deadline.

3. Chosen weight loss method: how are you going to do it? Which program/diet?

4. Your weight loss reasoning: why are you losing weight? It’s helpful to write this down and keep it in mind.

5. Your reward for weight loss success. (Some may call it a bribe).

Reward? Bribe? Yup. That’s what we’re talking about. Bribery may be less than pretty, but it’s effective. Any parent would have to agree. So bribe yourself to stick to your weight loss plan. Why not? Make the reward personal; something that you would do almost anything to get.

1. Clothes…do you love clothes? Specify a dollar amount that you’ll get to spend at your favorite clothing store after the diet

2. a trip (a popular choice after successful weight loss is a cruise)

3. A fantastic new, designer suit (have you always wanted to own one?)

4. A party

The reward (or bribe) doesn’t need to mean anything to anyone but you. You are the only one who needs to be looking forward to it so much that you can hardly stand it. Make sure that it’s something you wouldn’t do if not for the weight loss plan. And when you stick with it…make sure to follow through. Nothing’s worse than being promised something only to have it snatched away once you’ve earned it.

Necessary HCG Diet Supplies

Monday, March 15th, 2010

One of the great things about Dr. Simeons’ diet is, other than your HCG drops, you really don’t need much in the way of HCG diet supplies. Of course, you will need food like a supply of lean meat and fresh veggies in the refrigerator but that is about it.

If you choose the HCG injections (in which case you should be under a doctor’s care and supervision), it’s a bit more complicated. You’ll require syringes (legally available only by prescription) as well as a sterile container for mixing the solution.

This is why we recommend homeopathic HCG drops rather than injections. The drops are easier to purchase and easier to use.

Issues With HCG Injections

If you are tempted to order one of those HCG kits from overseas, don’t. If you want to take HCG injections, we suggest you consider coming to our Mesa Arizona weight loss clinic, where a licensed physician, in accordance with the law, will administer the HCG. You can rest assured that what you are having injected is safe and reliable.

If you are not able to attend our Arizona clinic, chances are there is a similar clinic in the nearest major city. You might also ask your own family doctor to prescribe HCG for you. However, most general practitioners are hesitant to do this because HCG has not been approved as a weight loss remedy (though it is commonly used for fertility treatments).

Getting an HCG kit from an overseas supplier is risky for a number of reasons – not the least of which is the legal issue of possessing syringes without a prescription. The other problem lies in reliability of source as well as product. Assuming it’s not a complete scam, these overseas manufacturers are often little more than back street, fly-by-night operations that provide a product that may not even be safe to use. We have heard stories of tainted shipments of HCG and customers who received nothing at all.

Unfortunately, because these firms are overseas, it may be difficult or impossible to recover your money.

Why HCG Drops Are Better

Homeopathic HCG drops are manufactured in U.S. laboratories operated by reputable companies that stand behind their products. These labs must abide by FDA regulations and homeopathic remedies are required to meet standards of Homeopathic Pharmacopeia of the United States (HPUS).

About FDA Approval and Off-Label Usage

Keep in mind that HCG is a natural hormone. You were actually born with a fair amount of it still in your system. The HCG diet is really just a form of hormone replacement therapy.

Since it stimulates the production of both egg and sperm in the human reproductive system, it is used to treat infertility. The use of HCG as a weight loss remedy is an example of off-label use. When a medication is used for something other than the condition it was developed to treat, it is considered off-label. It is a common practice among physicians. Approximately 20% of all medications are subject to off-label usage. In most cases, this is perfectly safe.

Remember that simply because HCG hasn’t been officially “approved” by the FDA for weight loss, it does not mean that the agency is against it (if it was, HCG diet supplies would not be available at all).

HCG Diet Supplies For Weight Loss Success

Friday, February 12th, 2010

Weight loss success while following Dr. Simeons’ protocols depends on having the right HCG diet supplies. Fortunately, all you really need are the protocols in hard-copy form, fresh vegetables and lean meats, and a supply of HCG drops.

Although HCG injections are available, it is better to use the liquid drops. You may be able to get HCG injections on your own, but this is not advisable, and there are many reasons why you really wouldn’t want to do it this way.

Difficulties With HCG Injections

It is possible that you could order injectable HCG on the Internet from overseas. In most of the U.S., it is not possible to get it legally without a doctor’s prescription, however. The issue is not so much the HCG itself as it is the syringes required for the injections.

For many reasons, not the least of which pertains to draconian drug laws, it is virtually impossible to get syringes without a prescription. Aside from this, there is no guarantee of quality or effectiveness when you order from overseas, as most of these sources are unregulated.

Assuming you have gotten your HCG injections and syringes through your family doctor, HCG injections are actually complicated. First of all, the medication comes in two separate vials, one of which contains a powdered form of HCG. The other contains sterile water. You must mix this yourself in specific amounts, and then measure it exactly into your syringe before injecting yourself.

Lt’s face it sticking yourself with a needle is not much fun.

Why HCG Drops Are Better

Liquid HCG is already prepared and can be used immediately. It can be stored like any other over-the-counter preparation (if you aren’t going to be starting Dr. Simeon’s protocols for a few weeks, it’s best to refrigerate it).

Taking HCG drops is no more difficult than swallowing, although you can’t actually swallow it directly. Otherwise, the digestive acids in your stomach will render it completely ineffective before it can be absorbed into the system.

The best reason to go with HCG drops rather than injections however is the fact that these drops, which you can purchase directly without a prescription in most states – are manufactured in U.S. laboratories by licensed, registered workers. Because these labs are under FDA regulation and standards are governed by the Homeopathic Pharmacopeia of the United States (HPUS), you are assured of quality and effectiveness.

What HCG Diet Supplies Do I Need?

Tuesday, February 9th, 2010

Actually, the answer to this question is “none” – expect for your supply of HCG drops. If you are taking injections, then a box of syringes and a sterile container are two of the HCG diet supplies you’ll need. However, we do not recommend the injectable form. Drops are just as effective, are easier to obtain and safer and easier to use.

Beyond this however, all you really need for weight loss success is Dr. Simeons’ protocols and a good supply of fresh vegetables and lean meat.

What’s Wrong With HCG Injections?

Technically nothing, but ask yourself if you really want to stick yourself with a needle three times a day. Most people do not.

There are other issues to consider. First of all, anything that needs to be injected usually requires a physician’s prescription. Chances are that injectable HCG is not even legal in your state. You can order it online from an overseas lab, but there are no guarantees about product quality, since these labs are poorly regulated (if at all). Plus, it could be seized by custom agents, in which case you would not receive it at all (but you may get a visit from federal agents).

Assuming that everything goes well and you actually get your supply of HCG, there is the question of preparation. What you get is two vials, one of which contains the powdered form of HCG, the other of which contains sterile water. You need to mix these elements every time you take a shot, and the mixture must be in exact proportions.

HCG Drops are Safe and Convenient

HCG in liquid form is premixed, safe, and ready for use. All you have to do is place 20-30 drops under your tongue before mealtimes and hold it there for about ten minutes. The reason is so that the medication can be absorbed. Were it to go directly into the stomach, it would be destroyed by digestive acids and become useless.

Storage is also easy: while you are using it, your HCG drops can go into the medicine cabinet. When not being used (such as when you are taking a break from it), it should be kept in the refrigerator.

Finally, you should know that liquid HCG is manufactured by fully licensed, authorized, regulated professional laboratories in the United States by qualified personnel. Homeopathic remedies such as HCG are made under the supervision of the Food and Drug Administration according to standards established under the Homeopathic Pharmacopeia of the United States (HPUS). Domestic manufacturers are the best source of HCG diet supplies.

I Heard That The FDA Had Not Approved HCG

You heard correctly – but you only heard part of the story. HCG has been approved by the FDA as a fertility treatment, and has been used for many decades for this purpose. Use of HCG as a weight loss remedy is regarded as “off-label” use. Such use is quite common in the medical profession. A common example is aspirin, which is normally an analgesic and anti-inflammatory. However, it is also used as an over-the-counter blood thinner.
