Now HCG is mostly known as a hormone that increases during pregnancy, but many don't know how it exactly works besided showing up on pregnancy test. from what i read so far this hormone actually act as a back up for you and your baby to activate stored fat for more energy and health. The basic weight loss knowledge is eat more loose more. take in a certain amount of calories per day, and eat 5-6 times a day your metabolism will increase and burn faster. the faster your metabolism the less fat stored. The HCG diet is almost an opposite and contradiction to the rules. while taking the HCG you take no more than 500 calories ,per day for an extended period of time. but before that time you are suppose to load up on fat and there are 3phases for each round. this is my understanding so far, I still have to purchase the book and everything else before i know exactly how it works. but basically you could loose anywhere from .5 lbs to 5lbs per day. 1-3 pounds being the average.
However, as awsome as this diet sounds and have proven to be for those who have done it i wont be doing it for a while. Reason being you can't do it while pregnant, which i wouldn't either way, and you can't do it while breastfeeding. To me the health of my son is the most important thing and with breastfeeding I can give him the best nutients and health. so i wouldn't be looking at the HCG for at least 8 months after my son is born. That being the case I figured i will utilize P90X during those months to reach my first goal weight, which is 160 pounds. and then use the HCG to knock out the last 40 pounds out. Hopefully to reach my final goal my weight loss will go through 5 phases.
Phase 1
- P90X- 3 month work out plan. hopes to loose 25-30 pounds
Phase 2
- P90X - another 3 months plus additional workout plan
-weight loss expectation 50-45 pounds lost
- Phase 3, 4, &5 HCG Protocal diet.
