To Do List While on HCG Diet

By Amelia Handley

One of the main questions that gets discussed by potential HCG dieters is, "What do I do while I'm on the diet?" It pops up constantly. And it's always fun to give the same old answers.

1. Get yourself to work. We haven't heard of an employer yet offering paid time off for weight loss programs so unless you're independently wealthy and lack constructive activity...we suggest you get on with it!

2. Eat dinner together. If you normally eat dinner together as a family; don't curtail the activity because you think you can't eat what your family is eating. Take charge and prepare a healthy meal for all. It's the perfect opportunity to get everyone eating healthy and that's a good thing.

3. Go out with your friends. Don't avoid all social gatherings. Once you get used to the plan you'll find that at almost any gathering or restaurant you can choose healthy items that are HCG appropriate. For instance, order a raw vegetable salad with the dressing on the side. Drink a lot of water with lemon.

4. Enjoy Dessert. Just because you're dieting doesn't mean you can't have dessert. The original "sweets" were fruits after all. HCG approved desserts are a big hit. We suggest trying the Warm Cinnamon Apple. It's the perfect finale to any meal whether you're dieting or not.

So...now that you've noted the sarcasm of the above to do list you'll be able to come to the appropriate conclusion that there is not a limited number of approved activities just because there are a limited number of calories allowed on the HCG diet. You just need to stick to your guns when it comes to exactly what you eat and go about your daily life as if nothing is happening. (Although you'll have to field all those difficult compliments as the weight drops off!)
