The Skinny on HCG for the Holidays

The Skinny on HCG for the Holidays

Well, the holidays are upon us and so are the parties, which means a lot of food and a lot of good times.  Those of you on HCG, are probably wondering how you’re going to make it through these festive times without gaining weight.

Diet Tips

There are a few things you can do to ensure that you have a good time and still stick to your diet.  You can drink a protein shake before you leave the house, then it won’t matter how long before they serve the food and you won’t be so hungry that you eat everything in sight.   If you need to bring a dish to pass then make sure it’s healthy and something you can eat.  If the party is at a party house or restaurant, then just try to make the best choices you can, sticking to protein and veggies and skipping the carbs. Remember, you will not be doing this every night, so one night a little off your diet won’t set you back too much but try not to over eat.

Don’t forget to weigh yourself every day so you can see how you’re doing. If your weight goes up more than 2 pounds it is advisable to do a shake day. This consists of a scoop of the Isagenix shake in the morning with one scoop of whey, then the same for lunch and a normal dinner.

Drinking Tips

If you decide that you are going to have alcohol, then give up your fruits (including tomatoes for the day). Drink plenty of water. For every alcoholic drink you should drink 2 glasses of water. Wine and vodka are the better choices for alcohol.

Most important thing to do over the holidays: relax, enjoy, and have a great time!
