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.

The Nature Of HCG

The more I learn about the human body and the HCG Hormone, the more it amazes me. Today I wanted to share with you the nature of HCG, or as Dr. Simeons puts it... The Nature of Human Chorionic Gonadotropin "HCG is never found in the human body except during pregnancy and in those rare cases in which a residue of placental tissue continues to grow in the womb in what is known as a chorionic epithelioma. It is never found in the male. The human type of chorionic gonadotrophin is found only during the pregnancy of women and the great apes. It is produced in enormous quantities, so that during certain phases of her pregnancy a woman may excrete as much as one million International Units per day in her urine - enough to render a million infantile rats precociously mature. Other mammals make use of a different hormone, which can be extracted from their blood serum but not from their urine. Their placenta differs in this and other respects from that of man and the grea
