There isn’t an exact number to shoot for – Dr. Simeons tells us in Pounds and Inches that we must eat to capacity of the highest fat foods that are available. Many dieters are excited at the prospect of eating whatever they like during the loading days, but we have found that clients who focus on high fat foods in the ThinNow HCG Diet Guide tend to do much better.

Aim for at least 250 fat grams (more is fine) per day while loading and you will find that you are in the range of “at capacity.” It will be much easier to aim for that number if you are focusing on high fat foods rather than high carb/high sugar foods (pasta, French fries, breads, etc.). Remember: if you eat a lot of sugar, it may make your detox a bit more difficult.
