Want to know what to expect when you do the HCG diet? Just question Chad…he is on Day 17 of the homeopathic HCG dieting plan. He has had his share of trials and victories. He has been capable of pinpointing some of his “rough” spots during the day through the use of his weight loss diary. He has become pretty good at sticking to a routine regarding his supplements, weigh ins daily and his meals. But then…wouldn’t you know it? He had to go and move.
When Chad weighed himself on Day 17 he was at 230 lbs. Why, you say, did he have a 4 lb. jump? Well…it’s all because Chad moved, dang it. He is a great example of just how vital it is to time the dieting program adequately. It escalates the probability that you will go off plan if you are trying to follow a strict diet during any of the following:
1. Playing the role of host or hostess
2. Staying as a guest in the home of someone else
3. Enjoying a major holiday/celebration
4. Birthdays you mean to celebrate
5. And…the classic road trip (road trips of any type…including moving)
The move for Chad took place over the weekend. And he didn’t really consider prior to departure how he was going to manage to eat “on plan” meals while on the road. Therefore it was nearly impossibe for him to do so. He was just so busy with the project of moving that he blew off the thought that is required for the diet. He said, “You know! You’ve done it. You just get so busy with one project that another falls to the wayside. Sad, but true.” Just to be clear exactly how off plan this past weekend got…Chad truly indulged. He had Diet Coke, ice cream and pizza. And none of that is anywhere near being on plan.
Chad has made a few very bad choices. Misbehavior should be punished so that the individual making poor choices learns their lesson. And in this case, the misbehavior was definitely punished.
He gained 4 pounds for goodness sakes! And after all that hard work to lose weight. That was his consequence for his bad choices on the road. Now that he was adequately punished Chad is ready to see the pounds drop off again. And he knows how to do it; he did it before. So he’s rededicating himself to the rules.
He’s more excited than ever to get back on the scale tomorrow on Day 18. He wants to see those four pounds drop off so he can get back on track and start heading toward his weight loss goal again. He’s bothered that he wasted some of his time, but he’s ready to get back on the road to better health through weight loss again.
