Weight Loss Through HCG Diet
HCG is a hormone found in a pregnant woman’s body that has already received a stamp of approval from the FDA as a fertility drug. However, this hormone has been successfully used for the last 60 years to help people achieve weight loss from target areas such around their hips, thighs, buttocks and stomach. The HCG weight loss program was devised by Dr. A Simeons who claimed that combining a low caloric diet with daily HCG injections for a period of 40 days at a time can help a dieter achieve up to one pound weight loss on a daily basis by suppressing their appetite and using long-stored fat to provide energy.
How much weight loss can you expect?
Thus, a dieter can expect to be around 40 to 45 pounds lighter by the end of a HCG treatment round that lasts for a period of not more than 50 days. For best results, Dr. Simeons recommended opting for a maximum of four HCG treatments that should ideally be separated by a break period of six weeks so that the body does not develop immunity to the hormone. However, once on an HCG diet, you cannot expect the hormone alone to work wonders for you. You need to reduce your daily intake of calories to no more than 500 a day after you take the third injection. As soon as HCG starts working in the body, it burns the fat deposits in it to provide the calories needed to get through the day.
HCG weight loss dietary specifications:
This along with the daily intake of 500 calories is enough to sustain the dieter without making him or her feel like binging all the time. However, the HCG diet works only on stored fats. So, once a dieter has lost all excess weight, the treatment needs to be discontinued as the body will reject the limited intake of 500 total daily calories once all the stored fat is used up. The diet that you maintain while taking HCG shots should be protein rich and low in carbohydrates, starches and fat. As with most diets, you have to steer clear of any alcohol consumption as it may upset the diet.
Moreover, if you opt for more advanced versions of the HCG diet for weight loss, you will be administered additional appetite suppressants in the form of daily injections of phentermine and other stimulants. Till date, only a few side effects of this diet have been reported and is considered quite safe.

One of my bosses work at a prison and he doesn't have time to do that much eating. First off, you should try to eat as often as you can. Working at a prison can be strenuous on your health but try as often as you can to speed up your metabolism. Did you follow the eating plans that came with the p90x and insanity? There is much I would like to tell you but other writers probably can best sum it up better than me.
offers all you need: articles, forums, networking, training programs, eating plans, dieting, everything.
You should try eating as many meals as you can, generally 5-8. Eat a balanced proportion of fruits, vegetables, complex carbs, protein, and fiber. Drink lots of water. Cut out all the sodas, drinks, smoothies, everything except water, non-fat milk, and tea (green tea, black tea, etc.). Try to do some form of cardio at least 5 days a week or as many as you can fit in. My aunt and mother always do "Training with Jillian Michaels" dvds. My cousin does p90x and it's working for him, which makes me question your diet. When doing p90x or insanity try to sweat as much as possible without dehydrating, put on two shirts and sweats and sweat out all that water and cut off body fat. The more water you drink the less you actually will attain. Cut out all junk food and foods/snacks high in sugar. Substitute those with fruit like bananas, watermelon, berries, avocado, or blueberries.
I really hope you find what you are looking for and I wish there was more I could do. Mostly give you the references so you can read them for yourself and make the necessary changes.
Women's Health and http://www.bodybuilding.com supply much information for weight loss and for people with tight schedules. Take care
