Avoiding hunger pangs on the hCG diet may help you stick to this very-low-calorie diet. The hCG slimming system pairs a challenging 500, 800, or 12oo calorie-per-day restriction with use of the hCG diet drops for weight loss. Keep your food and calorie allowances in mind while employing tips to curb your appetite on the hCG diet.
Step 1
Plan your daily meals and snacks ahead of time, cutting up fruits, vegetables and preparing lean proteins so they are ready to eat. If you have low-calorie snacks on hand, like pre-cut vegetables, you may be less likely to reach for a more calorie-dense food, such as nuts.
Step 2
Eat frequent, small meals throughout the day. Break up your 500-calorie allowance into five meals with allowances for low-calorie snacks between meal times. You may feel like you are grazing all day, but it can curb your appetite.
Step 3
Drink a large glass of water to trick your stomach and brain. Initially, the nerves in your stomach cannot differentiate between food and water, and your brain will think you are full and cease the hunger pangs.
Step 4
Brew up a mug of hot tea or low-sodium broth. Sip on it between meals or use the broth as a snack. You can even use a spoon and enjoy it like soup.
Step 5
Eat fibrous foods such as vegetables or whole grains. Like protein, the fiber will bring a sense of fullness and help curb your hunger.
Step 6
Brush your teeth after every meal or snack. Brushing your teeth will change the flavor in your mouth and may help curb your snack desire.

Cheating
Any color change, on the urine test strips, indicates fat burning. Testing in the darkest purple range all the time is usually a sign of dehydration. You need to drink more water to dilute the urine and keep the kidneys flushed. The strips only indicate what is happening in the urine. Ketosis happens in the blood and body tissues. If you’re showing even a small amount of color change, then you are in ketosis, and fat-burning is taking place. Do not worry about the color of your strip. Some low carbers NEVER show above trace or negative, yet they burn fat and lose weight just fine. If you’re losing weight, your clothes are getting looser, you’re feeling well and not hungry all the time, then you are successfully in ketosis. Don’t get hung up on the strips they are just a guide and nothing more.
