What is a summary of HCG maintenance?

The maintenance phase of the HCG Diet is 6 weeks long. The first 3 weeks, you should avoid eating any sugars and starches. During the second and third weeks, you slowly add sugars and starches back into your diet. Most people can easily go to 1,500 calories a day. There are a few that are more comfortable with slightly less, but 1,500 is a good rule of thumb. On maintenance, it is still really important to weigh yourself every day. If you are ever 2.1 pounds or more over your lock-in weight then do a steak day. If you are planning another round of HCG we recommend waiting at least six weeks before starting again.
