Comparing The Hilton Head Diet And The HCG Concept

By James Hines


If you are planning to lose weight you are not alone. Millions of people are overweight and are desperate to do something about it. Here is look at two popular methods, the Hilton Head Diet and HCG Diet for weight loss.

If you start the HH or Hilton Head plan you will eat around one thousand calories every day for around six weeks. Your calories will be split into five separate meals, and two of them are considered snacks. This type of eating is believed to boost metabolism as you avoid "starvation" mode. Foods you eat must be high carb and low fat.

The HCG program starts with a 500 calorie limit for the day for about 6 weeks. Your foods are high protein yet low carbohydrate. As part of the plan you take HCG hormone in one of several different forms. This is supposed to burn fat and limit hunger urges, making weight loss quick and effective.

Both HCG and HH plans can result in good weight loss. Of course, nether plan is meant to be followed for a long time. Quick weight loss is considered a short term benefit. Yet, results may be more long lasting with the HCG program.

An effective HCG program targets fat so it can be burned without losing too much muscle mass. If followed to the letter, it is possible to lose more body fat than with many other plans, including the HH program. The HCG plan is designed to be a starting point for a long term plan to keep weight off.

When you weigh the differences, the Hilton Head Diet and the HCG program can help you lose weight. However, you may experience faster fat loss with HCG and better long term results. Do not forget to check with your physician before changing your current eating plan.
