I'm new to the hCG diet, actually i just did my 2 days of loading. Today is my first day on the low calorie meal plan.
My biggest problem is the protein during lunch. I was wondering if it is OK to drink a protein shake in place of the 4-6oz of protein and vegetables for lunch. I have in the past used Lean Body Sugar Free before i went on this diet. Do you guys or girls have any input on this? Thank you Thomas |

I've occasionally used Jay Robb protein shakes without issues, but I just looked up the Lean Body ones (assuming you meant the ready to drink ones) and I think you might want to stay away from them, that's a lot of fat for one meal. Plus, they contain safflower oil, soy lecithin, sucralose, and ace-k which are all on the no-no list. Well, soy is kinda up for debate but I don't really reside on either side of the fence on that one. Protein count is pretty impressive, I have to say... The Jay Robb shakes also contain soy but they are sweetened with stevia. 110 cal, 0 fat, 25g protein and less than a third of the sodium. They're not RTD but if you are gonna use something, I'd use that instead.

Jay Robb Makes a protein Powder that does not contain soy. " Whey "is the the main ingredient.
Excellent for this HCG program. I have used this a lot and get continued losses just replacing meat in the diet. Great for vegetarians also. Per serving: Calories: 110 Fat: 0 Carbohydrate: 1 gram Sugar:0 Protein: 25 grams Sodium: 150 grams Great hit of potassium also! |
