Monday Morning Dieting "Blues"..

We set out with great intentions to not succumb to the party foods but what happens if we cheat and we are on the hCG VLCD?  Get back on track as soon as possible.  You will be able to correct it if you do not let it get out of control.

The hCG diet takes discipline, determination and careful planning. I think careful planning may be the smartest thing we can teach.  I will link to my favorite to go recipes that kept me from cheating.   According to Dr. Simeons if you cheat you will have a 3 day plateau with no weight loss and possible gain.  Expect this and be determined to stay on track.  There are many who start this diet without reading Pounds and Inches and I can honestly say that will be your biggest mistake.  You have to be mentally and emotionally ready for this diet whether doing the 23 days or the 43 day plans.  There have been some that take interruptions and cycle and I would just caution this kind of thinking can lead you to a slower weight loss pattern and more than likely stabilization issues.

Here are a few tips to get you back on track:

1.  Immediately restart your 500 calorie diet and follow the strict protocol in Dr. Simeons Pounds and Inches

2.  Make sure you are getting at least 2 liters of water a day and detox tea.

3.  Do a detox bath or try the Ultimate Detox program.  Available in the MarketPlace.

4.  Stress can hinder your weight loss so relax and get plenty of rest.

5.  The only acceptable correction day for Phase 2 is the Apple Day. The other correction/alternative correction days are for Phase 3 only.  The Apple Day is intended by Dr. Simeons to correct stalls not cheats.

6.  I always kept melba toast in my car and an apple or orange in my purse.  If I was away too long they have saved me so many times.  One of my favorite  TO-GO lunches is the Apple Chicken Salad.  This salad is perfect when I had a lunch meeting or was going to be gone from home for an extended time.
