Here are a few suggestions on how to avoid cheating on the HCG diet: 1. Space out your meals and have a snack ready (your fruit, some raw celery sticks, etc). Try saving that second fruit serving for the evening if you get the munchies late at night. If you crave sweets, try a little natural sweetener on your strawberries. 2. Drink extra water. Add some squeezed lemon and a little sweetener. It tastes good and its good for you. 3. Journal all the reasons why you want to lose weight. Remembering why you chose to lose the weight in the first place can really help you. For your family? Your kids? Your health? Looking good? Buying gorgeous clothes? REMEMBER!! 4. Think about the end result. Visualize yourself at your goal weight, playing with your kids, buying that bikini. Finding a reason to stick it out is critical to making it happen. 5. Make some hot tea. A nice cup of herbal tea, with some sweetener for sweetness or lemon can really take the edge off. 6. Take a walk. A brisk walk around the block will help you clear your head and redirect your thoughts back on to the program. 7. Get your family and friends on board. Many times people cheat because they are confronted with temptation by family and friends. Try to get your family and friends to be supportive and ask them kindly not to wave donuts under your nose or try to sabotage your diet efforts. 8. Most of all, remember that this is a temporary diet and the results are long lasting. You will not be on this diet forever. You will eat normal food and calories again. Focus on the delayed gratification right now and think about how healthy and attractive you will be, the smaller clothes you will buy later, and stick with the plan. I promise you, it will all be worth it.
