The HCG Diet Vs. Weight Watchers

How Does The HCG Diet Stack Up Against Weight Watchers?

As most of you already know, the HCG Diet Program was created by Dr. ATW Simeons back in the 1960's. It consists of dining on a 500 Calorie Diet Menu and taking small doses of the HCG Hormone.

The theory is that the HCG Hormone will help to reset your bodies metabolism and fix your Hypothalamus Gland. To date, millions of people have successfully lost weight using this diet method.

On average a person can lose about 1 pound per day, sometimes even more. This of coarse is a tremendous amount of weight to lose, and is unheard of with almost any other diet out there.

People are able to achieve such high amounts of weight loss because the HCG Hormone helps you to burn calories that are stored in fat reserves all throughout your body.

By tapping into these fat reserves, you are able to burn abnormal fat rather than lean muscle. This is another reason why people are so successful in keeping the weight off even after the diet ends.

But What About The Weight Watchers Diet?

The Weight Watchers program has been around just as long as the HCG Diet. It too has helped millions of people successfully lose weight and has been very popular over the years.

However it does take a little bit different of an approach to dieting. Members of their program rely on a points system and weekly meetings to lose weight.

With their points system, you are basically allowed to eat anything you want just as long as you stick to the amount of points allowed per day.

For example: If you are allowed to eat a combined total of 10 points in one day, and a piece of pizza was worth 5 points, you would only be able to consume 2 pieces of pizza for that entire day.

So which one sounds better to you?

Well, although the HCG Diet is a low calorie restricted diet, the HCG Hormone helps you to feel almost no hunger at all. Plus, you feel good throughout the entire coarse of the diet.

I would also have to say that the HCG Diet probably has a higher rate of success when it comes to keeping the weight off - This is because you are working to fix the problem, not just trying to lose a couple of pounds.

So in my opinion I would much rather use the HCG Weight Loss Program opposed to Weight Watchers.

However, a lot of people say that it's the meetings that keep them motivated while using the Weight Watchers Diet Program.

The good news is, you can still have the same type of thing right here with our very own HCG 411 Forum. In fact, I have always recommended having an HCG Diet Buddy. I too believe that talking with the other HCG Dieters on a daily basis, and sharing your weight loss successes and failures can do wonders.

But in the end, it all comes down to personal preference - So you tell me, which diet program would you rather be on, The HCG Diet, or Weight Watchers?

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. And this brings us to the question we are here to answer... Can You Have Cheese On The HCG 500 Calorie Diet? I think deep down inside most of you already knew that the answer ...

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...

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...
