LATEST CHAT @ hCG for hCG Diet DIET INFO FORUMS:

Hi there, I’m new to the hCG Diet Info forums, and starting on my second week of homeopathic hCG for hCG Diet spray. I have a situation going on, and I’m not sure what to do: Not counting the gorge days, I have been on the hCG for hCG Diet diet faithfully for nine days today. Days 1 – 3, I lost a total of 10 lbs. Before starting the hCG for hCG Diet diet, I lost 15 lbs on low-carb, so my total loss in six months is 25 lbs on the hCG diet. This might be a factor in what I’m experiencing, which is why I mention it. Days 4 -8, I was stalled. The scale didn’t budge at all even though I slightly increased my calories for the day, and sprayed additionally to help with the hunger cravings. This morning when I woke up and weighed (I’ve had to change my weigh-in time since school started up again and I’m getting up earlier) 2-3 lbs heavier. I went back to bed because I had a headache (without eating or drinking anything) and when I woke up three hours later, I was only 1/2 of a pound over. So the scale is moving now- just in the wrong direction. I think I stalled because my body is, #1, at a weight unfamiliar to me. I haven’t weighed under 200 lbs in 13 years. And #2, because I’ve lost 25 lbs, and plateaus seem inevitable. I have used Ketostix to make sure I’m burning fat, and they are all dark purple. I’m also wearing five sizes smaller in pants, though they’re a little snug. So I’m happy with the results. I’m just not sure how to get back to losing. My goal is 65 lbs, and I have 40 more to go. I’m only on Day 9 of hCG for hCG Diet, and plan to at least finish the 23 days required. I don’t want to cheat, nor get off the hCG diet, but I am feeling very frustrated. I’ve followed all the protocols, including adding a good multivitamin and watching out for any and all oils, fats, etc., in cosmetics, lotions, food preparation, etc. I drink my water and tea requirements, I weigh my foods raw – I’m doing everything that I’m aware of that I’m supposed to be doing. My homeopathic hCG diet spray seems to be working fairly well, though I am on thyroid replacement meds and knew to expect some hunger (according to my homeopathic lady). There aren’t any doctors in my state who prescribe hCG for hCG Diet, so homeopathic is my only option as far as I know. Any ideas? I’m trying a mini steak day today to see if it will help, and I did buy enough apples to do an apple day if needed. I’m just not sure which one to do, and I need to make a decision fairly quickly. I gained anywhere from 1/2 to 3 lbs yesterday, but I’ve also been stalled for four days beforehand. Is there a protocol when one gains after a stall? Thanks in advance -

hCG Diet Book Reviews

The Weight Loss Cure came into the public conscious in 2007, and since then there have been a few hCG diet books to written to help you find success on the hCG diet.

This is NOT a how-to for the HCG diet, The Pocket Guide to the HCG Protocol is a purse size summary to carry for convenience.

It briefly covers rules for each phases of the hCG diet; give nutritional food chart on 1,000 foods, drinks, and condiments telling you if each item is allowed, or not for each phase.

This daily journey not only has daily motivational quotes, but it also helps you track the foods you eat at each meal. This may help some see trends in stalls or gains during the hCG diet that may cause diet failure.

A very comprhensvie book based on Dr. Simones Pounds and Inches and Kevin Trudeau The Weight Loss Cure.  The author does a great job explaining the hCG diet for anyone who wants to do the diet without a doctor.

The book goes a step further with helping you maintain your loss and really making it permanent for those that Yo-Yo.

Corinne T. Netzer Encyclopedia of Food Values

Not a hCG diet book but if you need a book that give you calorie count nutritional value, fats, fiber, vitamins and minerals in your food, this book is it.

During and after the hCG diet you should know what you are eating and this book give it to you.

The Yeast Connection

If you did suggestions by Kevin Trudeau and did a Candida cleanse then you should have had immediate changes. However, if you did not but still have gas, mood issues, fatigue and health problems Candida is not the 1st diagnose your doctor will give you and you need to pick up this book and learn more about Candida.

Intense sugar cravings, sick, tired, no energy, depressed, gas, bloating, join pain, poor diet of processed foods and doctors not finding anything medically wrong?  Then you need to read this book

These are a few of the better hCG diet books to help you with losing weight and better health.

Hair Loss on The hCG Diet

Losing one’s hair can be freighting and a blow to your self-esteem. Two pressing question people ask is “Does the hCG diet cause hair loss?” and “What can I do to stop hCG diet hair loss while dieting.”

To clear up some confusion, using the hCG hormone does not cause hair loss. Hair loss can occur for several reasons; stress, iron deficiency anima, lack of proper vitamin and minerals, medication, diet, and thyroid issues, are just a few reasons.

While on the hCG diet, you are on a 500 calorie diet which may lend itself to a short term reason for hair loss. However, doing the hCG diet for 26 days would not necessarily be the cause of hair loss. There could be preexisting underlying conditions for any sudden loss of hair triggered or exacerbated by the hCG diet, namely, stress, low levels of iron and or thyroid issues. These are generally the top three culprits for sudden hair loss.

Most people want to know what they can do to stop what seems like an abundance of hair loss while on the hCG diet. If you are not under an abnormal amount of stress and until you can go to a doctor and find out if you do have any thyroid issues or are truly iron deficient, you can increase your intake of Biotin and Iron.

Biotin is a B 7 vitamin that helps hair and nails grow when taken orally. DO NOT waste money on Biotin that is contained in skin or hair products, as it is not absorbed through the skin and has little effect. Taking 2-3 grams of Biotin daily should be sufficient curtail hair loss. There is no none toxicity level for Biotin.

Iron is a trace element found in proteins. Iron is responsible for carrying oxygen in the body. The lack of Iron or being deficient in Iron, the body will carry oxygen to what it considers vital to live. Unfortunately, your hair is not vital for life. One over the counter Iron pill should help and would be the maximum unless prescribed by a doctor. Too much Iron can lead to Iron toxicity.

These are quick fixes for hCG diet hair loss, but by no means the end all to be all. There are generally underlying issues to hair loss unrelated to the hCG diet.   For both a conventional and holistic approach to hair loss, the Thyroid Guide to Hair Loss is an excellent book to pick up. Thyroid Guide to Hair Loss can also help you get proper thyroid diagnosis and treatment for hair loss or help you find the underlying cause of hair loss.
