The HCG Diet After a Pregnancy

The HCG Diet After a Pregnancy
2

• After having a baby, it might be difficult to
  get back into the swing of things, including
  becoming active again. Of course, becoming active
  means losing weight and getting that old body
  back, but you may not know where to begin.
  Fortunately, weight loss options are endless, but
  some are more effective than others.

• One of the fastest, most effective methods to
  lose weight after pregnancy is by following the
  HCG diet. However, this diet has some factors you
  must take into before starting the plan. Below
  are three factors that will affect the way you
  follow the plan after having your baby.

Breastfeeding can Postpone the Start of the Diet

• For many women, breastfeeding is inevitable
  and essential, but if youre breastfeeding, you
  must wait six weeks after birth to start the HCG
  diet for weight loss. During this time, nursing
  moms need extra calories. However, most weight
  gain during pregnancy is attributed to water
  retention and amniotic fluid.

5

• Because of this, you can lose as much as 20
  pounds in the first month following childbirth.
  Besides, breastfeeding helps you lose an ample
  amount of weight. On the other hand, if youre
  not nursing, then you can start the diet
  immediately following childbirth, but remember to
  be sensible and take things slow.

6
HCG Injections May Not be an Option

• HCG injections can be unsafe and inconvenient
  for new mothers. While the injections arent time
  consuming for most people, they may be
  distracting and overwhelming for a woman who
  needs to give most of her attention to her new
  baby. However, there are alternative ways to take
  the HCG hormone supplement.

7

• If youre looking for HCG online, then
  surely, youve discovered that HCG drops are the
  best alternative to the injections. The drops are
  safe, easy for nursing mothers to take and easy
  to store, as they dont require any special
  storage or refrigeration. HCG is also available
  in pills and tablets, but theyre arent as
  effective or available as the drops.

8
Youll Need Extra Calories After Birth

• After pregnancy, and if youre breastfeeding,
  500 calories will need to be added to your diet.
  Since the HCG plan is 500 calories itself, this
  can make sticking to the diet impossible. For
  breastfeeding moms, the solution is simply to
  wait for a safe time to begin the diet or get
  clearance from your physician.

9

• Your physician should be able to advise you on
  the safest way to complete the plan while
  achieving optimal weight loss. A nutritionist can
  also help you create a diet plan that works with
  your HCG supplements. Remember that breastfeeding
  will help you lose weight, so youll still be
  able to lose a lot of weight despite the extra
  calories.

• Plus, the HCG diet provides you with the
  proper balance of fruits, veggies, lean protein
  and whole grains that youll need after your
  pregnancy.
