What to Expect When You Try the HCG Diet
If you decide to try the HCG diet (and we recommend that you try hcg drops) then it is important to ensure that you understand exactly what the experience will entail. You need to be sure that you can make a real commitment to following the HCG diet protocol, without cheating, if you are going to achieve the best weight loss results. You should therefore read over the HCG protocol, particularly the menus that you will be able to choose from, so that you have a good idea of what to expect and exactly what you are taking on when you start the HCG diet.
You will need to be ready to eat only the types and amounts of foods that are allowed on the HCG diet protocol. This can be difficult because you will be eating a far more restricted diet than usual, so you need to be ready to make a commitment to work hard when you start this diet plan. You should not expect it to be easy to stick to this diet since you will need to make big changes to the way that you eat.
Despite the doses of HCG that you will be taking, you may still feel an appetite or craving for prohibited foods during this diet, which you will need to overcome. However, the HCG should help prevent you from feeling hungry, although it will affect some people more than others. Most people do not feel hungry at all when they are taking HCG, but a few dieters do still feel some hunger, although often this is merely because they are unable to differentiate between hunger (or the need to eat) and appetite (or wanting to eat, even without being hungry).
If you do stick to the rules of the diet, then you should expect to experience steady, rapid weight loss, which in most people will be of between 1 and 2 pounds a day.
