INTRODUCTION: HCG Diet Plan

The hCG weight loss protocol consists of a very low calorie diet (VLCD) accompanied by treatments of hCG injected. The average hCG dieter experiences rapid weight loss averaging 1 to 3 pounds per day. In addition to loss of unwanted fat, the true benefit of the hCG protocol is its ability to help modify the dieter's relationship with food and eating, resulting in easily maintained, long-term weight loss.

Below are some of the key points from Dr Simeons' "Pounds & Inches". Click here to view Dr. Simeons' "Pounds & Inches" manuscript.

Phase I: 30 hCG DIET PLAN

A patient is put on a protocol of 125 I.U. of hCG daily (except during menstruation) until 23 injections have been given. The first phase consists of two days of binging while administering injection. That is to say, the 1st 2 days of taking hCG, you gorge on fatty foods, to make sure your normal fat cells are filled to capacity.

Phase II: 30 hCG DIET PLAN

Day 3: After 3rd injection, 500 calorie diet to be continued until 72 hours after the last injection. The 500 calorie diet includes the following meal plan:

THE 500 CALORIE DIET

The 500 calorie diet is explained during your initial consultation and includes the following diet plan.

Breakfast:

  • Tea or coffee in any quantity without sugar. Only one tablespoonful of milk allowed in 24 hours. Saccharin or stevia may be used.

Lunch:

  • 100 grams of veal, beef, chicken breast, fresh white fish, lobster, crab, or shrimp. All visible fat must be carefully removed before cooking, and the meat must be weighed raw. It must be boiled or grilled without additional fat. Salmon, eel, tuna, herring, dried or pickled fish are not allowed.
  • One type of vegetable only to be chosen from the following: spinach, chard, chicory, beet-greens, green salad, tomatoes, celery, fennel, onions, red radishes, cucumbers, asparagus, cabbage.
  • One breadstick (grissino) or one Melba toast.
  • An apple or a handful of strawberries or one-half grapefruit.

Dinner:

the same four choices as lunch

HCG Diet Vegan Protocol (keep to 500 calories)

Breakfast:

Tea in any quantity without sugar. Only one tablespoonful of milk allowed in 24 hours. Stevia may be used as a sweetener.

Lunch:

Choose one item from each:

  1. 1 serving of Ezekiel bread OR 1/2 cup cooked quinoa OR 28 grams raw brown rice protein powder
  2. One type of vegetable only to be chosen from the following: spinach, chard, chicory, beet-greens, green salad, tomatoes, celery, fennel, onions, red radishes, cucumbers, asparagus, cabbage.
  3. An apple or an orange or a handful of strawberries or one-half grapefruit.

Dinner:

The same four choices as lunch

The juice of one lemon daily is allowed for all purposes. Salt, pepper, vinegar, mustard powder, garlic, sweet basil, parsley, thyme, marjoram, etc., may be used for seasoning, but no oil, butter or dressing.

Tea, coffee, plain water, or mineral water are the only drinks allowed, but they may be taken in any quantity and at all times.

In fact, the patient should drink about 2 liters of these fluids per day. Many patients are afraid to drink so much because they fear that this may make them retain more water. This is a wrong notion as the body is more inclined to store water when the intake falls below its normal requirements.

The fruit or the breadstick may be eaten between meals instead of with lunch or dinner, but not more than than four items listed for lunch and dinner may be eaten at one meal.

No medicines or cosmetics other than lipstick, eyebrow pencil and powder may he used without special permission.

No variations other than those listed may be introduced. All things not listed are forbidden, and the patient is assured that nothing permissible has been left out. The 100 grams of meat must be scrupulously weighed raw after all visible fat has been removed. To do this accurately the patient must have a letter-scale, as kitchen scales are not sufficiently accurate and the butcher should certainly not be relied upon. Those not uncommon patients who feel that even so little food is too much for them, can omit anything they wish.

There is no objection to breaking up the two meals. For instance having a breadstick and an apple for breakfast or before going to bed, provided they are deducted from the regular meals. The whole daily ration of two breadsticks or two fruits may not be eaten at the same time, nor can any item saved from the previous day be added on the following day.

Phase III: Maintenance:

72 hours after your last injection of hCG patients begin Maintenance. For three weeks on Maintenance the patients are allowed all foods except starch and sugar in any form (careful with very sweet fruit). After 3 weeks, very gradually add starch in small quantities, always controlled by morning weighing.
