2. Jumpstart Your Weight Loss
Efforts with the HCG Diet
UNDERSTANDING THE HCG DIET
While most people claim that the key to successful weight loss is
diet and exercise, these are not enough. The weight you would lose
could be mostly water and muscle mass, and some fat. When you
lose muscle it’s bad for your body, shape, and metabolism.
The fact is that experts who work in weight loss management are
well aware that weight loss is about far more than simply trying to
eat fewer calories.
That’s why our expert doctors from The HCG Institute recommend
the hCG diet: a combination of human chorionic gonadotropin
(hCG) hormone injections along with a low-calorie diet to jumpstart
your weight loss. Although it is only for the last decade that the
hCG diet plan grown in popularity, it is not new at all. In fact, the
hCG diet has been around for more than 60 years.
Human chorionic gonadotropin or HCG is a hormone secreted
during pregnancy. It is prescribed by medical professionals as a
treatment for fertility problems. However, its usage is not limited to
that. Dr. ATW Simeons conducted an experimental treatment
involving HCG injections, obese patients, and a special diet. It
was found out that with its effect to reset your metabolism, HCG
can be taken in to aid weight loss.
PHASES OF THE HCG DIET
The typical hCG diet plan is divided into three phases: a loading
phase, a weight loss phase, and a maintenance phase.

3. PHASE 1 (LOADING PHASE-NOT RECOMMENDED BY
THE HCG INSTITUTE)
During this phase, you are allowed to eat extremely high fat, high-
calorie foods to prepare your body for the caloric restriction it will
enter during the weight loss phase. But this is not recommended by
the physicians of The HCG Institute due to the dieter’s difficulty to
overcome carb withdrawal. You might experience headaches,
fatigue, mental fogginess, or muscle aches. Plus if you load with
foods high in sugars or other carbohydrates, this can cause cravings
and can be especially difficult to control because it can fire off
feel-good chemicals like serotonin, dopamine, and other relaxing
endorphins in the brain. The effects of these chemicals may make a
person more likely to seek them out repeatedly.
PHASE 3 (MAINTENANCE PHASE)
The goal of Phase 3 of the HCG Diet is to maintain your weight loss
and to slowly increase your caloric intake from the 500 you were
eating in Phase 2 up to 1200-1500. This phase lasts 3 weeks and it
allows your body a good adjustment period and you’ll have an
easier time maintaining your weight loss long-term. This is critical to
your success, so do not skip it!
PHASE 2 (WEIGHT LOSS PHASE)
During this phase, you continue to take your HCG supplements while
consuming 500 calories per day. The weight loss phase may last
from 20 days to 40 days, depending on your weight loss goals.
