Losing weight is your front-and-center goal for 2023, and you can’t wait to start seeing a slimmer, healthier you in the mirror.<\/p>\n
You’re in good company. Research shows that 1-2 out of five people<\/a> around the world are attempting to lose weight with the help of diet and exercise.<\/p>\n Fortunately, the HCG diet can be a helpful way to finally shed those extra pounds. This diet, which features three phases, involves consuming a low number of calories while also taking injections of a hormone called human chorionic gonadotropin, or HCG.<\/p>\n Here’s a rundown on what this diet looks like and what you can specifically eat during HCG phase 3.<\/p>\n Let’s jump in!<\/p>\n The first phase of the HCG diet (loading) involves eating high-calorie, high-fat foods for two days while taking HCG injections<\/a>. Then, during the second phase (weight loss), you’ll consume 500 calories a day for 3-6 weeks while continuing to take HCG injections.<\/p>\n Finally, HCG phase 3 (maintenance) involves maintaining your weight loss by eating between 1,200 and 1,500 calories a day. You’ll no longer need to take HCG injections during this phase.<\/p>\n Let’s take a look at HCG phase 3 snacks and food you can add to your menu.<\/p>\n As you enter the HCG diet maintenance phase, consider eating protein options such as lean beef, chicken, salmon, and turkey.<\/p>\n Meanwhile, avoid glazed ham, cured bacon, and processed sausage. You should also avoid hot dogs and spam.<\/p>\n During phase 3 of the HCG diet, you can eat fruits like strawberries, blueberries, peaches, and cherries. In addition, veggies such as cabbage, collard greens, asparagus, and jalape\u00f1o peppers can round out your meals.<\/p>\n Avoid eating mangos, bananas, potatoes, plantains, yams, and beets during this phase. Other vegetables to avoid include peas, parsnips, and corn.<\/p>\n You can consume dairy products such as butter, cheese, plain Greek yogurt<\/a>, and whole milk while on this phase of the HCG diet. Sour cream is also allowed as part of this diet.<\/p>\n Avoid sweetened yogurt and any dairy products that are low fat.<\/p>\n Finally, during phase 3 of the HCG diet, feel free to enjoy condiments such as sugar-free salsa, pico, hot sauce, mayo, and mustard. Avoid honey, tomato sauce containing added sugar, ketchup, barbecue sauce, and salad dressings containing added sugar.<\/p>\n During HCG phase 3, you can eat a variety of meats, fruits, vegetables, dairy products, and condiments. These menu items range from salmon to asparagus, cherries, butter, and even hot sauce. However, as we mentioned earlier, you’ll also need to take HCG injections as part of the diet.<\/p>\n Fortunately, at HCG Supplies, we offer supplies and mixing kits to help you to prepare the HCG hormone for injection.<\/p>\n Contact us<\/a> to learn more about our supplies, and order today<\/a>!<\/p>\n Note: This article is not medical advice.
