The hCG diet, also known as the human chorionic gonadotropin diet, is a controversial weight-loss program that involves following a very low-calorie diet (VLCD) while taking hCG injections or drops. During the second and third phases of the hCG diet, dieters transition to a slightly higher-calorie diet that includes more lean protein, vegetables, and fruits. A chocolate smoothie can be a delicious and satisfying way to get your daily dose of nutrients while following the hCG diet.

Check out the recipes below so you can choose the best recipe for yourself!

CHOCOLATE DELIGHT - HCG - P2/P3/P4



Chocolate Delight - Hcg - P2/P3/P4 image

For those on the HCG diet who crave chocolate!! =) Some find that they can eat this in Phase 2, others cannot. If you're curious, about whether or not you can, try making a tiny amount (1 Tbs. coconut oil, 1 Tbsp. cocoa powder & sugar-free sweetener to taste... The more cocoa powder, the more of a 'dark chocolate' taste). Then check your weight the next morning. =) It's not as good as milk chocolate but it's not too bad of a substitute, imo. But I've heard that most people either love it or hate it. =) In P3 and P4 you can add other ingredients... nuts, coconut flakes, etc. Be creative!!

Time 15m

Yield 16 1 oz. servings, 16 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 3

1 cup coconut oil, extra virgin is best
3/4-1 cup cocoa powder, unsweetened
8 (1 g) packets stevia (or other sugar-free sweetener to taste)

Steps:

  • Melt coconut oil (in microwave) for 15-45 seconds, just long enough for it to turn to liquid.
  • Add cocoa powder (the more cocoa powder, the more the flavor will taste like 'dark chocolate', so if you don't like dark chocolate, use the lesser amount of cocoa powder) and add sweetener (8 packets or to taste). Mix thoroughly.
  • Pour small amounts into an ice cube tray (or similar) and freeze for at least 15 minutes, to harden. Then enjoy! =).

Time 10m

Yield 1 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

4 ice cubes
1 tablespoon 2% large-curd cottage cheese
1 tablespoon 2% low-fat milk
1 tablespoon cocoa powder
stevia (to taste)
1 -2 tablespoon water, enough to keep blender going

Steps:

  • Place all ingredients in blender or Magic Bullet and blend.
  • Serve immediately!

Tips:

  • Choose healthy fats: Use unsweetened almond milk or coconut milk instead of dairy milk. Add a tablespoon of chia seeds or flaxseed meal for extra omega-3s.
  • Use fresh or frozen fruit: Frozen fruit is just as nutritious as fresh fruit and often more affordable. It also helps to thicken the smoothie and make it more refreshing.
  • Add protein powder: Protein powder is a great way to boost the protein content of your smoothie. Choose a protein powder that is made from high-quality ingredients and is low in sugar.
  • Don't add too much sweetener: If you need to sweeten your smoothie, use a natural sweetener like honey or maple syrup. Start with a small amount and add more to taste.
  • Drink your smoothie fresh: Smoothies are best enjoyed fresh. If you need to make it ahead of time, store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours.

Conclusion:

Chocolate smoothies can be a healthy and delicious part of your HCG diet. By following these tips, you can make a smoothie that is packed with nutrients and low in calories. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy breakfast or snack, reach for a chocolate smoothie!
