Steak Day On The HCG Diet

If you have already completed the hCG diet successfully you will understand the importance of the Maintenance Phase, do this wrong or half heartedly and don't be surprised if those pounds reappear.

Your goal on the Maintenance Phase is, as the name suggests, to maintain the new you, staying within 2lbs of your weight from the last dose day. This is crucial as your hypothalamus is being reset along with your body's base weight, and any further loss will be at he expense of normal fat which, in turn, is easily regained at a later date, so remember to keep an eye on weight gain and loss during this period, staying within the +/- 2lb last dose weight.

So what to do if you stray above the 2lb threshold?  You take on a "steak day" and it must take place immediately! So with that in mind, you must entirely skip breakfast and lunch, making sure to drink lots of water which will also help as an appetite suppressant, and then…

Eat a HUGE steak for dinner accompanied by an apple or raw tomato.

This invariably will correct the gain and you will be back on track.

Remember the maintenance phase of the hCG diet plan is a lot easier than the very low calorie diet as you are less restricted, being able to eat most fruits and vegetables, but it is imperative to stay within the 2lb threshold.
