How Long To Do the HCG Diet and How Much HCG to Buy

A properly followed HCG Diet is completed through multiple “rounds” with carefully planned and executed breaks.  The length of a round can vary according to which site you visit and which Doctor or specialist has designed the protocol.  To keep things simple, most dieters will follow a modification of the original HCG Diet (Simeons Protocol) where a round lasts for approximately 3 weeks  (Most “short round” HCG diet kits are 24 to 28 day kits.)  This is considered a “short round.”  A “long round” is considered 6 weeks and is generally used by those who have a significant amount of weight to lose.  (Long round HCG diet kits are typically 40 to 56 days.)

Should I order a short round or long round kit?

As a general rule of thumb, it is recommended that those who have 15 to 20 lbs to lose to less, follow a 3 week short round.

For those who have more than 20 lbs to lose, the long round kits are typically recommended.
