Rome on 500 calories a day? It’s the HcG way!

Yummm...Real Spaghetti!

Just got back from Rome, Italy, the home of the HcG Diet research by Dr. ATW Simeons, the man who made my middle-aged body svelte again.  Almost needless to say,  I ate my way through the city, and came back 4 pounds heavier than before…and it was worth every sugar-filled, carb-loaded bite!

But it brings me to the question…how did those original test subjects live in Rome on only 500 calories a day?  Two grissini?  Who are they kidding?  Even with the HcG, and the strict supervision, it had to be a real challenge.

To me, this shows the power of HcG.  If they could live in Italy and not eat bread or cheese, surely you and I can follow this diet for a few weeks, in our own homes, with access to good organic ingredients and a plethora of recipes to keep us on track.

Me, personally, I don’t really enjoy cooking.  I do love eating though, and saving money.   So back from holiday, off to the supermarket I go.  It’s surely not the same as visiting a small mercato with cheeses and meats hanging off the ceilings and the lilting language of amore in the background…but when I am on HcG, I honestly don’t care.  I keep my eyes on the prize — a slim, attractive and HEALTHY body — grab my recipes, and honestly, sometimes, I surprise myself, and my hubby, by creating a delicious meal that stays within my HcG diet plan and feeds the family too.
