Pounds and Inches Program

 Detox Phase

 

Standard Process Purification Program:

 The foundation of our 21-day purification program includes eating whole, organic, and unprocessed foods; taking whole food supplements; and drinking plenty of water. You will eat vegetables and fruit from days 1-10, with select proteins added at day 11. It's simple, yet clinically effective.

Purification is merely the internal cleansing and detoxification of your body. Think of it as "spring cleaning" for your insides. Most people lose between 6-25lbs in the 21 day process.

 Why do I need purification?

 Purification, also known as detoxification, can help you remove natural toxins from your body and help maintain a healthy weight. We are exposed to external toxins every day, including pollutants, pesticides, and chemicals. Internally our bodies produce waste byproducts as a result of normal metabolic function. Although your body is designed to rid itself of these toxins naturally, it can become overburdened. Purification offers your body additional support to expel natural toxins and minimize your weight, which is important to maintaining your health and vitality.  

 Toxins can contribute to a wide range of conditions:  

            ·         Stuffy head  

·         Fatigue or difficulty sleeping

·         Digestion and other gastrointestinal problems

·         Food cravings and weight gain

·         Reduced mental clarity

·         Low libido  

Rapid weight loss hCG phase

 

·        Medical Exam with Blood work

What is the hCG Diet? The hCG weight loss protocol consists of a very low calorie diet (VLCD) accompanied by treatments of hCG, injected.  The average hCG dieter experiences rapid weight loss averaging 1 to 3 pounds per day.  In addition to loss of unwanted fat, the true benefit of the hCG protocol is its ability to help modify the dieter's relationship with food and eating, resulting in easily maintained, long-term weight loss. Injections are given a minimum of 23 days to a max of 49 days per round.  A person can do as many rounds as necessary to reach weight loss goals.  Between rounds we require you to go on a maintenance diet for 4- 6 weeks depending on health and goals of the individual.

 

 

Maintenance/Stabilization Phase  

 

The maintenance phase is the 3 week period after you finish your injections.  There are a few simple rules you must follow: you must weigh yourself every day, you must remain within 2 pounds of your last injection weight (either above or below), and you can eat anything except sugars and starches.  It is extremely important to eat enough protein on this phase; many people eat at least 100 grams of true protein (about 400 grams weighed raw). If you go over the 2 pounds, you must do a steak day to get rid of the weight.  We want to be clear that this 3 week period is crucial to the success of the diet. The entire phase is explained in Dr. Simeons Pounds & Inches, One last item before you begin: The day that you give yourself your last injection, you count 72 hours (continuing on the 500 VLCD for those 72 hours) from that moment and then you start the maintenance phase. That weight that you were the morning of your last injection is the weight that you use as a basis for your maintenance phase. Anything OVER two pounds from that weight calls for a steak day. This will be explained in office.

NOTE: The time period to begin this phase is not 3 days after your last injection, it is 72 hours! (For example, if you administer your last shot on Monday at 8 am, you will begin the maintenance phase on Thursday at 8 am.)
