Eating Habit Tips After the HCG Diet

HCG Injections

Confused over nutrition advice? These simple tips can help you plan, enjoy, and stay on track with healthy eating even after the HCG Diet.

  1. Create a list of your eating. I bet that you’ve written something in your journal after months of doing the HCG diet. Creating a list of your “must” eating habits will help you uncover your eating habit even after the diet is over. Also, include in your list the ones that could lead to weight gain like eating too fast or eating when not hungry. Highlight those parts and identify the trigger that causes you to engage in those habits. Common triggers for eating when not hungry includes:
    1. Eating while watching your favorite movies on Netflix.
    1. Opening the cabinet and discovering what you like to snack on.
    1. Swing through the drive-through each morning.
    1. Walking past a candy or chocolate dish on your kitchen counter of your office mate’s table.
    1. Emotional eating
    1. Feeling bored thinking food might be your pick-me-up.
  2. Make a positive difference to your health. After adapting to eating healthily, try not to go back to your unhealthy lifestyle. Stay away from unhealthy foods and replace them with healthy alternatives. Replace dangerous trans-fat with healthy fats.
  3. Prepare your meal. Cooking your meal at home can help you monitor exactly what goes into your foods and better take control of it. You’ll be able to eat fewer calories and avoid added sugars, preservatives, and unhealthy fats from takeout and packaged foods. Avoiding calorie-dense and chemically laced convenience foods will keep you from feeling bloated, irritable, and stressed out, which could cause weight gain.
  4. Eat whole natural foods. The HCG diet helps cleanse your pallet so whole natural foods can taste better than processed foods.
  5. Skip breakfast. Sounds contradicting, right? Breakfast is a rather controversial topic these days. However, a recent study shows breakfast in a new light. Removing breakfast as part of an intermittent fasting schedule has several excellent benefits for your health. These include improving insulin sensitivity and allowing your body to burn fat rather than sugar.
  6. Choose fruits and veggies you’ve never eaten before. When starting the HCG diet, most dieters didn’t eat all the allowed vegetables. However, many learned to appreciate vegetables such as grilled onions and broccoli, and raw cucumber that they would not have tasted before the diet. Try to have more raw veggies. Raw food is more satisfying to the body than cooked food since it allows for more chewing and crunching. Raw food also takes longer to eat, so you will consume less food overall.
  7. Drink plenty of water. Water hydrates our bodies and removes wastes and toxins; yet many people go through life dehydrated, leading to tiredness, lack of energy, and headaches. Keeping hydrated can help you avoid confusing hunger and thirst, which is why getting enough water is also necessary for making healthier food choices.
  8. Limit your snack foods at home. The unhealthier snacks you have on hand, the harder it will be to eat in moderation. Surround yourself instead with healthy options so you can reward yourself with a special treat when you’re ready for it.
