Hi, Thanks for using HCM
I have a simple routine for you to follow .
The first part of the plan, called the induction phase, has these rules:
No more than 20 grams of carbohydrates per day, mostly from certain vegetables. Only Protein and fat from poultry, fish, eggs, red meat, butter, and vegetable oils.
No pasta, bread, grains, fruit, starchy vegetables, or dairy other than butter, cheese, and cream.No nuts, seeds, or legumes like beans.No caffeine.No alcohol
Second phase "ongoing weight loss" stage, when you slowly add more vegetables, and you can include seeds, nuts, legumes, berries and other fruit, wine and other low-carb alcohol, and whole grains.
After that, to help keep the weight off, you may be able to eat more carbs and add more foods to your diet, depending on your body's needs.
In first month all together you will loose 15-20 pounds atleast and in second phase around 5 pounds.
