Hit a Plateau.... Apple Day!

So after reaching my 2nd milestone of 10lbs a total of 20 I've reached a plateau. I noticed this in my first round in May also.

When in phase 2 of the HCG diet everyone hits a plateau or sometimes gain a pound or two. This usually happens somewhere in the middle about 14 days into the diet or so or if you attend a social function and have to much to eat. No worries...  plateau happens to everyone sooner or later in the diet but there is no need to get worried that the diet is no longer working. In fact, it is exactly the opposite. The plateau is usually found in people that have been doing really well with the HCG diet. This usually corrects itself in time but can last anywhere from 4-6 days in some cases. This disappoints some people, I sure was, especially when I have gotten use to seeing 1 or 2 lbs drop off the scale daily.

However there is a quick fix to the stall and its called “Apple Day”.  On the HCG diet apple day you are instructed to have 6 large apples and nothing else. You can eat them anytime you want but not more then 6. You are only to drink water to quench your thirst if needed. 

Steak day is also an option... Drink water all day and have a steak for dinner.

Only then can you return to your phase 2 diet instructions. 

The results almost always result in a smile on your face in the morning when you see your weight loss continue.

WHAT IS HCG AND THE SCIENCE BEHIND IT.

If you want to try the HCG Diet but don’t understand how it works, this brief overview will help you
understand what sets the HCG diet plan apart from other diets. The HCG diet concentrates on
reducing your intake of calories to 500 a day to stimulate weight loss. The presence of the HCG
hormone forces your body to burn stubborn, stored fat for energy to compensate for the lack of
calories eaten. Your body will be eating its own fat; therefore you will not feel hungry or experience
your usual cravings.

1. HCG reprograms the hypothalamus
HCG is a hormone that has been shown to regulate the hypothalamus of the brain. When the body has
an adequate amount of HCG, the hypothalamus burns excess fat stores. Without adequate HCG, the
brain will burn lean muscle tissue before it ever burns excess fat.
2. HCG resets your metabolism
When your body’s natural reserves of HCG are restored, the hypothalamus is triggered to burn the excess
amounts of fat that contribute to obesity. This also resets your metabolism, giving it the boost you need in
order to burn fat quickly. If you have struggled for years with a sluggish metabolism, an HCG deficiency
may be your problem.
3. HCG controls hunger pains
Because your body draws the energy it needs from burning excess fat, you can maintain a low-calorie
diet without feeling hungry between meals. With the HCG diet you learn to recognize when you are full,
which trains you to stop overeating. This is a crucial weight-management skill that you will learn through
the HCG program and use the rest of your life.
4. HCG increases energy
Unlike diet pills that rely on caffeine and other substances to boost energy, HCG gives you an all-natural
energy kick. As your body burns excess fat stores, you will find your energy level increasing. While most
low-calorie diets leave you feeling weak and undernourished, HCG allows your body to unlock its natural
stores of energy.
5. HCG is safe and natural
HCG is a naturally occurring hormone in the body, which is depleted over time due to the chemicals in
our environment and our food. Taking oral HCG is perfectly safe and it does not have any side effects.
Nor does it interact with other medications. The diet plan itself does not call for any chemical-laden
shakes or bars, you simply eat small amounts of fresh fruits, vegetables, and lean meats.
If you have struggled for years with obesity and a lack of energy, the HCG diet plan may be the right
answer for you. It’s a safe, effective, and all natural diet that jump-starts your metabolism and burns
excess fat quickly.

HCG Second round

So I'm back on the HCG program... down 8lbs in 8days. For those that followed the first 30 day challenge you know I made a huge mistake but managed to lose 15lbs. My plan was to go into maintenance for 6 weeks. Well what had happened was.... life, I had about 3 hair shows in the 6 weeks time period and I literally ate out for 6 weeks. But thanks to the Iaso Detox Tea, I managed to only gain 5.... I surely thought I had blown it all.

So with nothing on the schedule for about 8 weeks, I decided to do a second round of HCG... with proper instructions of taking the drops I am pleased to to be 8 days in and have lost 8 lbs.

Pictures don't lie. I'm enjoying the journey and want to inspire and help other get started with their own .
