• Get one to three Thai massages a week. Thai massages are administered without lotions. You will be fully clothed and the massage consists of a series of assisted stretches. Do not take regular massages where lotions and creams are applied to your skin.
Day Four Through Day Forty-Five:
Follow the Day Three instructions every day for the entire course of treatment. In order to achieve permanent results you must continue the treatment exactly as described for a minimum of twenty-one days and a maximum of forty-five days.
Starting Treatment: Women should start the treatment immediately after their menses, or at least ten days before their next menses. During menstruation no injections are to be taken, but the diet is continued exactly as described. Injections are resumed immediately following the menses.
Duration: This phase must last for a minimum of twenty-one days, and a maximum of forty-five days. If you need to lose more weight after the forty-five days of treatment have been completed, you take six weeks off, eating normally with the exception of no sugar and no starch. You then resume Phase 2 for up to six weeks. If at that point you still need to lose more weight, you must take eight weeks off, eating normally with the exception of no sugar and no starch, and then resume Phase 2.
The Simeons "weight loss cure protocol," as you can see, consists of a daily injection of hCG, combined with a very strict and specific food consumption plan. The specific foods used cause chemical reactions in the body, combined with the hCG to activate the hypothalamus into releasing the secure abnormal fat reserves causing dramatic weight loss without the loss of muscle or structural fat. The amount of food consumed is approximately 500 calories. The reason for the very low caloric intake is that the body will only release the abnormal fat reserves after it has burned the consumed calories. Interestingly enough, eating lower amounts of calories do not speed up the process. Eating smaller quantities of food actually stop the fat releasing mechanism. Dr. Simeons discovered that by changing the food, the fat releasing process is also slowed or stopped. For example, when Simeons added mushrooms or artichokes, even though they had the same or less amounts of calories, the fat releasing was slowed or stopped completely. This is due to unique chemical compositions in the food.
It is of the utmost importance for this protocol to work, you must strictly follow the exact procedures to the letter.
The Last Injection Day Injection: On the day you receive the last hCG injection you must follow the diet program exactly. For the next two days you also must follow the diet exactly. This is because your body is flooded with hCG and it should take two days for it to leave the body.
During the entire Phase 2 you should weigh yourself every morning at approximately the same time. Keep a daily record of your weight. You should also take front, side, and rear photos of your stripped down body on the day you start Phase 2. Take measurements of the thighs, calves, hips, waist, chest, back, and arms. Upon completion of Phase 2 take another series of photos and measurements. The weight and inch loss will be absolutely astounding The before and after pictures combined with the weight and inch loss are a vital key to motivating you to continue with Phase 3 and Phase 4. This will also start reprogramming your mind with the belief and mental image of the body you desire. This is a very important component as it will counteract the programming we have self-imposed, as well as the food company advertising brainwashing we have endured over the years.
During this phase you should lose approximately one pound per day. This will vary from day-to-day. Hunger will vary for each individual. Hunger pangs will last no more than five to seven days. The majority of people have no hunger pangs at all, even from the first day, or have mild hunger pains that last only one to three days. The more you did in Phase 1, in many cases, determines how long the hunger pains last. If you have severe Candida overgrowth, a clogged colon, or have taken large amounts of non-prescription and prescription drugs over the years, your hunger pains may initially be higher and duration slightly longer. The vast majority of patients, however, state that hunger pains are very mild or nonexistent. The major feeling that people deal with in the first few days of Phase 2 is a feeling of emptiness in their stomachs. This is quite different than hunger pains. Weighing yourself daily and seeing the spectacular results will keep your motivation high, allowing you to overcome any short-term hunger.
You may have many questions regarding this phase. You may read Dr. Simeons manuscript Pounds and Inches: A New Approach to Obesity here. In the question and answer section of this book I address the most common concerns. At the end of the book I also give you additional references for your review, as well as the names, addresses, and websites of clinics that are currently administering this "weight loss cure protocol."
The most common question asked is that if a person just did this low calorie diet without the hCG injections, wouldn't they still lose weight? Every legitimate double-blind study shows that when people eat this diet without the hCG injections they do, in fact, lose weight. However, they do not lose the problem area secure fat deposits. Their body is not reshaped. They lose muscle and structural fat. They have massive hunger and fatigue. When they stop the diet they immediately gain all the weight back, plus more! Those who do the diet with the hCG injections lost more weight than the other group, had no hunger or fatigue, and lost fat in the problem areas. Their bodies were completely reshaped. They did not lose structural fat and muscle. Most importantly, when they stopped the diet and hCG injections, they did not gain the weight back! Although there are critics and so-called experts that continue to debunk and discredit Simeons' "weight loss cure protocol," the hundreds of thousands of patients achieving these results, combined with the massive amounts of scientific documentation, double-blind studies, clinical studies and observations, are proof beyond a doubt that this is in fact the ultimate cure for obesity. This method has passed the test of time.
Once you have completed one or more six-week rounds of Phase 2 and have lost the weight and reshaped your body to your personal satisfaction, then it is time to go on to Phase 3.
