Drinking Soda Pop On The HCG Diet

Soda-Pop on the HCG Diet ... Can you drink just one a day?

Now, if you are anything like me, soda is going to be the toughest thing to give up while on the HCG Diet. Truth be told, I used to drink almost 10 sodas per day. I know, that's a ton.

The funny thing is, some people don't even consider drinking soda pop cheating. This is what some folks have actually told me.

"I haven't cheated at all on the 500 Calorie Diet - But sometimes I do have a Soda"

I guess they only think they're cheating if they eat something they're not supposed to have.

This is the reason that I wanted to go ahead and answer this question once and for all...

Is it cheating to drink soda on the HCG Diet?

YES... It is!

So if you are one of these people that tells yourself it's not, deep down you know that every time you take a drink of that syrupy goodness, even though it tastes so crisp and refreshing, you are in fact cheating.

And I know what you are thinking...

What if it's diet soda?

But either way, (As violins play in the background) even if it's a Diet Coke, it is still cheating.

Actually, the artificial sweetener that is used in a lot of these diet soft drinks out there are a big no no.

Warning: If you are encouraged easily by others, Stop reading now!

With that being said, a friend of mine told me that he drank a Diet Coke every morning throughout the entire HCG Diet, and he still lost close to 40 pounds during one single round.

Now this is not something that I recommend doing. But for some reason, there are people who can do this and get away with it - While others cannot. At the same time you have to wonder how much good can this be for the long term affects of the diet.

Sure, you might be able to cheat and still lose a bunch of weight, but will you keep it off?

Not only that, but what about the Hypothalamus Gland and your Metabolism - Are these things really going to be fixed if you cheat?

Honestly, I can't say for certain. But, if you are eating and drinking things that aren't allowed, the diet probably won't work to its full potential. Right?

My thoughts are, if you are going to work this hard to lose weight, you might as well go all in. But that's just my theory.

Cheese On The HCG Diet - Is It Allowed?

Is cheese one of the items on the HCG 500 Calorie Diet Menu? Anyone who has read the HCG Diet Protocol knows that there are a lot of different rules to follow. On top of it all, you have to remember which foods you can and cannot eat. However, what people usually remember more than anything is that list of foods you can have is much smaller than the foods that you can't. Still, it can be quite a task to memorize that list in such a short period of time. I guess this is why people always ask my wife and I which foods are allowed during Phase 2 of the HCG Weight Loss Diet - One of the more common foods we are asked about is cheese. Now I love cheese probably more than the average person, so I can definitely understand why people are hoping and praying that it's listed on the HCG Diet Menu.

HCG Diet Dangers

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.

Therefore, the danger can be eliminated if you can only remember to use alcohol pads...

How The Hypothalamus Works

What the Hypothalamus Gland does and why it's so important to fix it... The Hypothalamus Gland is located directly below the Thalamus which is at the center of the brain. It controls many automatic functions of the human body. So this means that it can tell the autonomic nervous system what to do. The Hypothalamus also controls pituitary output by distributing certain chemicals to the pituitary's frontal lobe. To put it more simply, the Hypothalamus Gland organizes and controls many complex emotions, feelings and moods. It also controls all motivational states including hunger, appetite and food intake, and everything to do with the concept of pleasure including satisfaction, comfort and creative activities. The neurons in the Hypothalamus produce a number of Hypothalamic Neurotransmitters which relay information and instruction to all parts of the brain and body, directly influencing the Pituitary Gland. This is where the Growth Hormone, Thyroid Hormone Releasi...
