You may have clams during phase 3 of the HCG diet.
There are four phases of the hCG diet. I've included a brief intro here, but the full resources are in the related links. Phase 1 - beginning phase Phase 2 - strict 500 calorie diet/drops or injections Phase 3 - maintenance phase Also, possible to do another round of hCG for more weight loss You can see more at each additional related link below. Hopefully this helps.
Beer is considered a fat, which you are trying to completely cut out of your diet while on phase 2. for the 20-30 days you are in phase 2, you should refrain from beer completely. But once you hit phase 3... bottoms up!
Phase 3 is the 21 days immediately following phase 2. In phase 3 you can eat whatever you want as long as you avoid sugars (in any form other than fruit) & starches.
Yes during phase 3 only.
You certainly can while bingeing (first 3 days), but not in phase 2 (500 calorie stint), and jury's out for phase 3. Some say you can, but use it sparingly, and others say avoid it due to the high sugar content.
The purpose of avoiding sugars and starches in all forms during phase 3 is to allow our hypothalamus to reset properly. Without the reset of our hypothalamus, we would likely gain back all of the weight lost during phase 2, just like with every other diet.
6 weeks than take 3 weeks off and continue until you have lost the weight you were hoping for.The minimum amount of time you can be on the HCG diet is 26 days broken down as follows:2 days of loading while taking HCG 21 days of very low calorie diet (VLCD) with HCG3 days of VLCD without the HCG.The maximum amount of time you can be on the HCG diet while doing injections is 40 days. You can stay on the homeopathic HCG drops for a maximum of 60 days.After completing the VLCD portion of the diet, you must do three weeks of maintenance where you do not eat any sugar or starch followed by three additional weeks where you may add sugar and starch back in to your diet. By the end of maintenance, you will have completed 6 weeks of maintenance.
Phase 3 of the HCG diet (also known as maintenance) is divided in to 2 phases, each lasting 21 days. The first half of this phase is called Maintenance 1 and during this phase you are allowed to eat anything you wish except for foods containing sugar/starches/flours. Some people have assumed this phase is identical to the "atkins" diet, but this is not true - on M1 you do not need to count carbohydrates - a majority of your calories will come from meat, vegetables and lower-sugar fruits during this phase. A list of foods for M1 is included in the related links section. Stay on M1 for 21 days. Your primary goal is stabilization. The second half of maintenance is called Maintenance 2. You will be slowly adding sugars and starches back in to your diet. Both phases need you to follow the 2-lb steak day rule: if you are more than 2 lbs over your last injection weight or your last drop weight, you need to do a steak day on that day.
I found this website to be particularly well laid out. It describes what your diet should be after gastric bypass surgery (I am assuming this is what you meant by a bariatric diet) there are 4 phases: 1. liquid foods phase 2. pureed foods phase 3. soft solid foods phase 4. solid foods phase.
Yes, carrots are allowed on the HCG diet, but not on the 500 calorie a day phase (phase 2) that lasts for minimum 23 days.
