Correct- The artificial sweeteners found in diet sodas are not allowed on P2. There are two types of sweeteners allowed on the HCG diet: stevia and saccharin.
Dr. Simeons (the physician who created the diet), formulated the diet as not only a weight loss method, but also as a sort of cleanse. In fact, in order to get the most benefit for your metabolism on the DIY HCG diet, you must stick EXACTLY to the approved foods. Otherwise, the chemicals in non HCG diet-approved foods could affect your metabolism as you try to reset your new lower weight and make it harder for you to maintain your weight loss. So it could affect your current weight loss and your ability to keep it off later. That said, we do not recommend it.about a week ago · Report
Follow Spring's progress on her HCG diet journey. She is following Dr.Simeons strict HCG diet protocol. Spring was seen by her Medical Doctor prior to starting the HCG diet. Before starting on the HCG diet - you must read the "HCG Weight Loss Cure Guide" 3rd or 4th Revision by Linda Prinster - FIRST. In her book she has a copy of Dr. Simeons Manuscript/protocol. Spring also recommends getting the cookbooks, tracker & pocket guide! (They are a lifesaver!
While you are waiting for your "HCG Weight Loss Cure Guide" to arrive, click on the link below to download a copy of Dr.Simeons "Pounds & Inches, A New Approach to Obesity" manuscript and read it.
When you are ordering your HCG order MORE than you think you'll need - because the places you order from tell you different #'s of drops to take and if you find yourself hungry at all, up the # of drops or cc's that you are taking as Dr.Simeons' recommends in his manuscript. You shouldn't feel hungry at all! Spring took .8cc's-1.0cc three times per day (about 2.5 ounces per round or one 2oz bottle & one 1oz bottle). Dr.Simeons recommends .5cc's to start with and gradually add .1cc per day until it feels right to you (no more than 1cc). Don't skimp on ounces when buying HCG!
This is a very TIME INTENSIVE diet and expensive at the start up (If you do what Spring did and buy all the books, stevia, George Foreman grill, scales, meats -weigh & freeze in separate bags and Grissini Breadsticks ahead of time - to last 2 months). However, starting the 2nd Round was a breeze because Spring had everything she needed! (Not as expensive or time intensive as Weight Watchers, though).
