The Homeopathic HCG Diet is all natural. It also offers amazing results averaging 1 to 2 pounds of weight loss per day. That means something special is going on. In the case of this particular diet is a few different very important “somethings” working together to create a program that works.

1. Cutting the calories back drastically. The homeopathic HCG diet requires dieters to stick to a 500 calorie per day diet.

2. Daily use of the homeopathic HCG weight loss formula (3 times per day)

3. Only approved foods. The approved food list for the homeopathic HCG diet is very short. And sticking to it is vital.

The simplicity of the diet is a bit tricky. It is simple, but it’s still quite difficult. It’s a bit of a paradox. The problem comes when people who have never approached a diet as intense assume they’ll be able to stick to it without even trying. It definitely takes effort and reputable dealers will always offer appropriate tips and supplements to increase the chances of success. One popular “tool” is the shopping list.

This is the shopping list as recommended by HCG Diet Direct for the dieter’s local grocery store:

Lemons, oranges, strawberries, lettuce (iceberg and romaine), apples, grapefruit (red), cucumbers, celery, asparagus, sweet onions, green onions, bag of spinach, tomatoes (cherry, Roma, etc.), Melba Toast (wheat and garlic), No Sugar salsa, Real sea salt, Tony Chachere’s seasoning, fresh chicken breast or tenders, Jennie O turkey burgers, 93% lean turkey, beef and chicken, shrimp, lobster, crab, lean steak, tilapia (or other white fish), lean roast.

Dieters that begin with the list (and the other suggested shopping lists) in hand have a much easier time sticking to the protocol set down for the diet. The correct foods “on hand” make coming up with healthy, HCG approved meals easy. It’s especially easy if dieters take advantage of another one of the popular dieting tools offered by HCG Diet Direct, the eCookbook.

Faithfully sticking to the shopping list will ensure that the ingredients are available when HCG approved recipes are picked up. And successfully attempting to follow the HCG approved recipes is one of the most helpful aspects of the diet. It creates long term knowledge in the dieter regarding how to prepare healthy meals. And this enables dieters to maintain their weight for the long run because they have an entire new lifestyle when it comes to eating.
