HCG Diet

THINKING ABOUT A HEALTHIER YOU?

If you’re thinking about losing a lot of weight, and you’re feeling overwhelmed by the thought of doing it alone, our HCG Medically Monitored Weight Loss program is an ideal solution. Not only can you lose up to 40 pounds in 40 days, but we will be working with you as an individual to provide you with the tools, specific directions, and resources you need to succeed.

And through the end of July, we’re also offering $500 off to every new client who starts HCG (before July 31st). Jumpstart your new life, feel better than you have in years, and save big at the same time.

HCG may seem mysterious to you if you haven’t done it before, but it’s actually a pretty simple plan. You’ll follow three different phases to jumpstart your success and keep your body working toward your ultimate goal.

Any change in diet and lifestyle comes with challenges. The HCG Medical Weight Loss Program will help you lose weight quickly and safely, however, it is common for many patients to experience some cravings at the onset of the diet. With support from our team and resources, we’ve got this covered and we’re here to help make this a positive, life-changing experience for you! Let’s start with beating those pesky cravings!

1. Eat a pickle. Pickles can satisfy salty cravings. Both cucumbers and vinegar are on the approved list of foods for the diet, so this snack can help you get the crunch and sweet and salty flavors you desire. Be sure to purchase pickles with limited salt and sugar, however.

2. Load up on lettuce. We know. It doesn’t sound glamorous, but lettuce has so few calories, yet contains great nutrients like fiber and vitamins and will help fill up your stomach. Stock up on spinach, chard, arugula and add some spices. Remind yourself that this clean eating is clearing your organs from toxins and giving you the life and energy that you need to succeed!

3. Drink more water, but add some lemon or mint. Many of us confuse dehydration with hunger. At the onset of any craving or hunger pang, drink a glass of water with lemon or mint leaves. Water will also help fill up your stomach and keep you fuller until your next meal. We recommend consistently drinking water throughout the day, but also adding an additional glass (or more) a half hour after the morning dose of HCG, a half hour after lunch, and a half hour after dinner.

4. Drink tea. Tea is approved on the HCG list of foods for intake and can naturally satisfy your cravings. Peppermint, spearmint, oolong, and yerba mate can help stave off hunger pangs and cravings. They are all said to be natural hunger suppressants and keep your blood sugar at a more even level. In addition, green tea contains catechins that help prevent the movement of glucose into fat cells. This slows blood sugar levels from rising and prevents high insulin and fat storage. Stevia can also help sweeten the tea and keep you satisfied.

5. Eat your apple and savour it. Cut up an apple (included on the list of approved foods), and sprinkle some lemon juice or stevia to add some punch and sweeten your snack. Remember to eat it slowly and acknowledge the flavors and satisfying sweetness.

6. Stay focused on the goal. Remind yourself that you are getting what you need from the planned HCG program list of foods and you have the support from Terrell Clinic to keep moving forward. While the science and body chemistry behind HCG are doing their part in this lifestyle change, your emotional eating habits are just as much a challenge. Use this time to recognize that we often reach for food out of boredom, anxiety, exhaustion, and even happiness. Take this old habit and relay the energy into a healthy, productive distraction. Take a walk around the block. Drink water. Call a friend. Call Terrell Clinic and enlist your support resources.

Most importantly, YOU can do this. You are on your way to a healthy weight, loads of energy, and a priceless feeling of empowerment. The limited calorie intake is temporary. Your attitude toward life and living and feeling your best will last much, much longer!

Weight loss is a very personal challenge that goes far beyond simply doing.

For those of us who have struggled with weight issues, there is a very familiar song and dance. We know what we need to do—take in fewer calories and expend more—but this basic concept can actually be extremely overwhelming. Whether we are faced with having to lose just a few pounds, a genetic predisposition to obesity, lack of time, or any combination of biological or environmental challenges, putting one foot in front of the other and trusting in a new program can feel daunting.

Everyone is different, but we all share common challenges associated with successfully losing and keeping off excess weight:

• What really works?

• How do I keep myself motivated?

• And, how do I turn a successful weight loss outcome into a long-term weight maintenance program?

While weight loss is continually a topic of discussion in the headlines and prevalent in everyday conversations, it is an extremely personal issue. There are countless diets on the market making promises that generally lead to rebound weight and disappointment. In most situations, a directed, tailored program is a far better alternative to “shelf-bought” diet plans because there is no single diet that can work for every body.

As a center for cosmetic surgery, Terrell Clinic focuses on the overall health of the body and recognizes that patients must feel confident on the inside as well as how they appear outward. Our goal is to provide patients with the tools and resources to develop healthy personal lifestyles, along with enhancing their inner and outer beauty. One of the ways in which we support our patients is through medically monitored weight loss plans.

Below, Dr. Terrell discusses some of the successes she has experienced with her clients participating in the highly individualized HCG Medical Weight Loss Plan:

“We meet with patients from all walks of life wanting to look and feel more comfortable in their own skin. We work with men and women who are looking for an option that truly works so that they can have freedom from food, feel energized, and increase their self-esteem. We have organized our unique program into three phases for maximum results, and patients following the HCG Medical Weight Loss program at Terrell Clinic will typically lose 30-40 pounds in the first 40 days of the diet.

Many patients feel overwhelmed or discouraged by the amount of weight that they have to lose, or from feeling as if they have to do it all on their own with ineffective yo-yo dieting. The reason I love HCG is because not only are patients able to lose excess weight quickly, but so many of them find hope in our program. We don’t just help them lose weight, we work with patients to develop the lifestyle changes and tools they need to help them maintain it. We believe that truly caring for a patient means setting them up for long term success in health and happiness, starting with our complimentary consultation and all the way through post-treatment maintenance support!”
