HCG Disclaimer: HCG is a drug which has not been approved by the Food and Drug administration as safe and effective in the treatment of obesity or weight control. There is no substantial evidence that HCG increases weight loss beyond that resulting from caloric restriction, that it causes a more attractive or "normal" distribution of fat, or that it decreases the hunger and discomfort associated with calorie-restrictive diets.

Acknowledgments
Much of this book depends upon the thoughtful comments and support of many of my patients in Miami, Florida that assisted me in developing the “new” HCG weight loss plan and sent me in their favorite recipes. I wish to acknowledge the ever present support of my wife Jacqueline and my four children who have been my sounding board and to my five grandchildren, Chelsea, Samantha, Jason, Jessica and Savannah who have brought me so much happiness.

Introduction
The HCG diet combines a very low calorie-no fat, no sugar food plan with the hormone HCG. It was invented by a Dr. A. T. Simeons, a British physician in Italy in 1954. HCG, an abbreviation for human chorionic gonadotropin, is a hormone made only by the placenta of pregnant women. It produces the positive pregnancy test and is thought to mobilize fat from pregnant women to supply nutrients for the developing fetus, especially when the mothers food supply is interupted.
Dr. Simeons described the diet in 1954 in his self published booklet, Pounds and Inches which he called the “HCG protocol.” Dr. Simeons’ plan consisted of three phases: Phase 1 was a limited period of overeating or binging usually for two days, Phase 2 was the 500 calorie, almost no fat and no sugar diet. This was accompanied by HCG which was given by injection for 21 to 41 days. Dr. Simeons found amazing weight loss results of up to ½ to l lb. per day. There was no associated weakness, fatigue or hunger. His patients lost this weight even without exercise. Phase 2 was followed by Phase 3 - a recovery or stabilization period of three weeks.
The HCG diet has remained popular but controversial. Some medical studies find it to be effective and an equal number reveal no additional weight loss with the HCG Diet beyond that achieved by the caloric reduction. All have found it extremely safe. The FDA’s position is given in the disclaimer.
In the New Pounds and Inches, Richard L. Lipman M.D., a board certified internist, updated and revised Simeons’ 1954 plan using modern day science and his personal experience treating thousands of patients with HCG. In New Pounds and Inches, Dr Lipman clarified all of the controversies surrounding the HCG diet including:
• Improved oral version of HCG
• 800 calorie food plan
• Protein with all three meals
• Many fruits, unlimited vegetables
• Unlimited zero calories
• Hundreds of great recipes
This book begins where the New Pounds and Inches left off, with an expanded food plan for dining out of the home as well as many recipes to offer more variety and fun when eating at home. As you will quickly see, the HCG diet, although it appears to have little variety can be fun and interesting and still produce spectacular weight loss results.
Dining Out
Chapter 1 - Introducing The NEW Pound and Inches HCG Food Plan (Phase 2)
My recent E-book, The New Pounds and Inches introduced this 500-800 calorie a day plan to the HCG dieter. It’s based on the principles of the 500 calorie diet Dr. Simeons described in his 1954 booklet, Pounds and Inches. In his original diet, Dr, Simeons suggested an apple for breakfast, a lunch and dinner consisting of 3.5 oz. of protein and a cup of salad or vegetables. To this he added a few melba toasts, Grissini bread sticks and two fruits. The total calories for the day could not exceed 500 and the total net carbs of about 30 grams. (Net carbs are total carbs less the undigested fiber.)
In this chapter you will see the many new foods I have been incorporated into the HCG protocol. Most were not available during Dr. Simeons’ time. Ideal calories for the Phase 2 should be between 600- 700 calories per day and not exceed 800 calories per day. Some days are higher, while other days a bit lower.
You will need to get a food scale in order to get the chicken and beef protein portions correctly. The correct size is about the size of a deck of cards. You do not want to skip a meal, even if you are not hungry. Skipping meals on the HCG plan quickly leads to low blood sugar and feelings of fatigue, faintness, hunger and dizziness. So don’t do it! Even a protein shake, bar, hard boiled egg, no-fat cheese stick, low-fat, low-sugar yogurt or apple can be substituted for a meal.
Breakfast
IN THE ‘NEW’ POUNDS AND INCHES
Coffee and tea are unlimited in this plan. Use any sweetener except sugar. A small amount of fat free milk or coffemate can be added. Pick one protein for breakfast. If you prefer fresh eggs, then I suggest 1 egg with the yolk or two egg whites or Egg Beaters. Most people do not know that an egg has 6 grams of fat, while egg whites have no fat. The yogurt must be Dannon Light & Fit Carb Control. This is made for diabetics. Since it is only 50 calories, you can have two. Add some strawberries or blueberries to the yogurt or the fat free cottage cheese. For those that like to skip breakfast, have a protein shake or a protein bar.
The only bar that I have found that fits the plan is the Extend Bar. The Extend products include protein bars, chips and shakes. They are found in the diabetic section of Walgreen’s or CVS. Many large grocery markets have them in their pharmacy sections. You can also order them at www.extendbar.com . My patients find that they help prevent hunger, avoid low blood sugar reactions and increase their energy. The Extend bar has 150 calories, 3 grams of fat, and 6 grams of fiber, 0 sugar and 12 grams of protein. It has a glycemic index of 40. If you can find another protein bar with these nutrients please tell me about it.
Unlike the protein bars, there are many high protein shakes that are suitable. Whether pre-made or self mixed, they should have 120 calories or less, 0 sugar, no more than 2 or 3 grams of fat and at least 15 grams of protein. If your protein shake has these parameters, you are free to use it.
Breakfast should be about 120 calories or less, contain at least 0 grams of protein and have 2 or 3 grams of sugar and fat or less .
Lunch and Dinner
IN THE ‘NEW’ POUNDS AND INCHES
Starting your lunch or dinner with a soup makes the meal look larger, slows you down and helps you feel full. You can make you own soup. It should not have any carbs. A chicken or beef broth is equally good. There are a few canned soups which are appropriate. These include Campbell’s Vegetable Beef and Progresso’s Light Roasted Chicken and Vegetable. When looking for soups, be careful, the vast majority contain pieces of noodles, beans or potatoes. You can also make your own soups starting with the chicken or beef broth.
Note that at lunch there are 4 oz. of beef, chicken and fish, while at dinner you can increase the chicken and fish to 5-6 ounce portions. Be careful,use only lean cuts of beef (filet mignon, tenderloin are the best, hamburgers have too much fat and should be avoided). The chicken needs to be the breast without the skin, not the dark meat. I see no reason that the white meat of turkey cannot be used. Salmon should be avoided because of the high fat content. You can substitute, especially at lunch, pre-cooked protein products such as canned tuna, canned salmon (fat is already removed) and canned chicken. Tyson and Perdue make pre-cooked chicken strips that are also a good alternative.
A Flatout Light wrap can be used at lunch. If you do this you need to eliminate the crackers. The wrap is 90 calories and very large. Each wrap has 2.5 grams of fat, 0 sugar, 9 grams of protein and 9 grams of fiber. The lack of sugar and the high protein and fiber content make this product very filling. Any wrap that has similar contents can be substituted. Look for “low carb” wraps. You can fill it with lots of vegetables, shrimp, turkey, fish, ham, chicken. You can add low fat mayo, mustard or low sugar ketchup. The more vegetables the better- it looks larger and takes longer to eat. My patients are very happy with this choice. You can easily split it 2/3 for lunch and 1/3 for a snack later in the day.
The portions of salads and vegetables are unlimited except for peas, corn and carrots, which should be avoided. If you have a meal replacement such as an Extend bar or one of the protein shakes, you still can have your salad and vegetables, but not the protein. Many dieters I see prefer a large salad with a protein such as tuna or chicken for lunch, and for dinner a more traditional dinner with a protein, cooked vegetable and large s
