    Good morning all! I am on my second round of the VLCD, 4 days in. Did anyone else lose weight slower on the second round? I have to admit, I am not doing 100% protocol - I have an 8 oz. diet coke in the a.m. to help me get down my pills as they just wouldn't go down with coffee, tea or water! I have a hard time with pills anyway. I am also using store bought mustard when I have my 4% hamburger days, I REALLY don't like meat, especially beef, and it's the only way I can get it down. I read the ingredients and it does not appear there is anything in there that should be forbidden. I tried the recipe for mustard and did not like it at all. I am alternating chicken, fish and beef.

    Thank you everyone for the information on this forum, it has really helped keep me motivated!

    I am on round 2 day 4 too! And I am still .5 pounds above my last weight on round 1 so yes it has been harder for me this round too.

    I finished my second Round 3 weeks ago and I have to say, it was a slower weight loss and a smaller weight loss than Round 1.

    I am doing Homeopathic, but did have 20.5 lb loss on Round 1 and only (yea, only) a 13 lb loss on Round 2.

    I am thinking positive here as I have lost a total of 33.5 lbs overall which I think is FANTASTIC considering I never enjoyed that kind of weight loss on any other program I have done.

    I did notice that on Round 2 I did a lot of reshaping and losing of inches, so maybe that is what is going on for you with this Round???

    Thanks, I wasn't sure if it was just because I was having the diet coke and mustard, which I did not do on the first round. I am only doing the short rounds because I really don't like meat so it is very hard for me to do the allowed protein! I lost 18 lbs. the first round, ended up 1 lb. above my LIW before I did my loading days, then gained 3 lbs. on my loading days - which really only equaled a 14 lb. loss for the first round - ugh!! I lose weight extremely slowly anyway and am just trying to stay motivated and happy if I lose any weight at all each day!!

    It might be the diet coke. I have lost consistently better with each round. And you don't HAVE to eat beef if you don't like it. I hardly ever had beef.

    Darn, really grammy?? Do you think it would make a difference if I just had some to take the pills or if I drank the whole 8 oz., which is the short can? I am only eating the beef to try to have some variety, but will probably have to cut it out after this week, I have a much harder time getting that down over the chicken and fish though those aren't easy either! I was a carbetarian before this diet, which may explain why I need to be on it :shamed:

    Maybe just get the pills down with a swallow of diet coke?

    Mustard is allowed as far as I know. I am on R2D26 and am .04 different in my losses from the same day in my last round. It would be good if you could find out if the diet stuff causes you problems. Try some mineral water with vanilla flavored stevia..... sooooo good, and see if that makes a difference.

    wow, so I just posted in another thread. But I'm on my second round and yes, seeing much slower loss. It's very discouraging. I did the HCG diet a year ago and lost 24 lbs. (Took a year off to see if I'd have any issues keeping the weight off and had none) When I did the protocol last year, the first couple of weeks I lost an average of 1.5-2 lbs a day. I started the VLCD on Saturday, lost 3 lbs the first day but since only losing .4 - .8 per day. I don't get it. I'm not deviating from the diet. I've double checked my numbers to make sure I mixed properly (and I think I did). No lotion, make-up, etc. I just ordered some HCG testing strips to test the potency of my solution.
