The Right Way To Cheat During Thanksgiving

If You Are Going To Cheat On Thanksgiving Day, This Is How You Should Do It...


Now don't let the title fool you, I don't ever recommend that a person cheat during the HCG Diet. But after reading some of the emails and comments that I have been getting lately, I know that some of you are bound to cheat during Thanksgiving.

In fact, just yesterday I opened an email that went something like this...

Hi Brian, I am currently on Phase 2 of the HCG Diet. I have been really good about sticking to the protocol up to this point ... But with Thanksgiving coming up I plan on going off of the diet just for that day. Will this ruin the rest of the diet for me? And what should I do the day after Thanksgiving?

Unfortunately, I can't tell someone what will or will not happen to them if they cheat. There are really no guarantees one way or the other. Even cheating just a little can cause a massive stall in your weight loss.

However, if you must cheat, you might as well lessen the negative impact that it has on your diet. Here are some of the ways that you can try to do that.

The Right Way To Cheat During Thanksgiving


  1. Don't over do it: One of the main things that the HCG Diet is supposed to teach you is how to have a normal relationship with food. Unfortunately going back for seconds and thirds is not the way to do it. So if you must cheat, do it with small portions.
     
  2. Have a slice of turkey: While my wife and I were on the VLCD we had turkey every once in a while. So eating a little bit during your Thanksgiving dinner shouldn't hurt too bad.
     
  3. Grab some veggies: You may have noticed that not all vegetables are allowed on the 500 Calorie Diet ... So you may want to take this opportunity to eat some of those delicious veggies. Nobody said that cheating had to be unhealthy.
     
  4. Eat some forbidden fruits: Much like the veggies not all fruit is allowed on the VLCD ... So if you do cheat you might want to partake in some of your favorite fruits.
     
  5. Stay away from the potatoes and gravy: I know it's going to be difficult, but this is one of the foods that you should try to steer clear of.
     
  6. Please, no desert: Now I'm sure that this is probably the main reason that you want to cheat on Thanksgiving, but trust me, loading up on sweets can be a hard thing to bounce back from. So do yourself a favor and resist the temptation.

I'm sure that you already know holding back on Thanksgiving is going to be difficult, but in the end you'll be glad you did.

I just hope that this post doesn't encourage even more of you to cheat.

Do you think you can make it through Thanksgiving without cheating?

Tell Us Your HCG Diet Story

Would you like to write an article for the HCG Diet 411 Blog? These days, there are people all over the world that are using the HCG Diet. Whether it's good or bad, each one of these people have a story to tell about their experience. Are you one of these people? If so, I would love to hear what it is you have to say; and I'm sure my blog readers would too. Not a professional blogger? - Don't worry, you don't have to be. If you can write a letter, you can write a blog post. See, I really want to get HCG Diet users talking about how they've done with the diet so far - Because even though a doctor can tell you how the diet works and what to expect from it, only a handful of them have actually done it. Which means they can't tell you on a personal level what you will experience. Now don't get me wrong, most doctors are very knowledgeable about the HCG Diet and they usually have valuable information to share with their patients. I just th...

Melba toast Should be by the breadcrumbs and even in the baby food isle as they use this for teething . I mentioned yesterday that I had read about someone buying them at Safeway, but I guess now it's confirmed. The funny thing is, Chris wasn't even respo...

HCG Diet Dangers

HCG Diet Dangers - Are there any? And if so, what are they? So what are the dangers associate with the HCG Diet? If you were to Google the term " HCG Diet Dangers ", you would get a bunch of sites trying to sell you something related to the HCG Diet. A lot of the websites that you will run into trying to find the answer to this question, are nothing more than marketers using fear tactics to get you to buy their product. So try not to get pulled in by this sort of thing. The truth is there are some HCG Diet Dangers, but they're probably not as bad as you think. In fact, some of them are human errors that make this method of weight loss the most dangerous. I'm talking about things like getting an infection from not cleaning your syringe. While getting an infection from a syringe is a danger that is associated with the HCG Diet, it is a mistake that a human makes that causes it. Therefore, the danger can be eliminated if you can only remember to use alcohol pads...
