Why Weight Loss On The HCG Diet Sometimes Stops

Have You Stopped Losing Weight With The HCG Diet And You Want To Know Why? 

Weighing Yourself
Sometimes toward the end of an HCG Diet round it's not unheard of to have your weight loss slow down or in some cases stop completely.

This can be extremely frustrating for anyone who experiences it; especially when you are steadily losing 1 pound or more per day.

However, knowing what causes this can sometimes be the key to avoiding it. 

So Why Does Weight Loss Stop Or Slow Down Toward The End Of A Round? 

Well, it could be a number of different reasons. But usually it only happens to people that are doing a round of 40 HCG Shots/Liquid HCG Drops. Either way here are a couple of those reasons.


  1. You become immune to the HCG - If your body gets too used to the HCG Hormone, your weight loss slows down or possibly even stop. So if you are using the injections be sure to skip one shot per week.
     
  2. You've reached your target weight - You may stop losing weight on the HCG Diet if you have hit your target weight. So if this does happen, you might ask yourself if you are already at your ideal weight for your height and body type.
     
  3. Your body is used to the 500 Calorie Diet - When you first start the VLCD that's when you will usually lose the most weight. But the longer you do the diet, the more your body starts to get used to eating only a small amount. This makes it so the diet has less of an effect on you. One thing that might help is to really load up during your 2 Gorge Days.

Of coarse sometimes your weight loss stops simply because you are on a Plateau. If this is the case you might try one of the many different Plateau Breakers.

PureVia For The HCG Diet

Have you ever used PureVia before? For those of you that haven't heard of PureVia - it's an all natural zero calorie sweetener, that is made from pure Stevia extract. This means that it is also okay to use for the HCG Diet. PureVia is available at most local supermarkets. In fact, at some stores it's even cheaper than Stevia. However, Stevia still seems to have more of a selection when it comes to different flavors. PureVia, as far as I know, just comes in it's natural flavor, which I think is just fine for coffee and tea. So if your not going for any special flavor, I think they are pretty much the same thing. Let me know what you think in a comment... Have you ever tried PureVia before? If you like the HCG Diet 411 Blog - Please share it below and subscribe to my Feed
