Mixing veggies?
 

Who has tried doing both doing one veggie and mixing? Have you noticed any difference in losses? Anyone have any idea the protocol says not to mix?

I have no idea why the protocol says not to mix. I didn't mix veggies at first, then I did. Discounting the first week's losses which are always better, I still lost either way.

It's not the sliced cucumber on the lettuce that come back and bite you on this diet.

I do mix lettuce and cucumbers or lettuce and tomatoes. I also put some chopped onion in just about everything I make. Other than that I have not mixed. I'm on day 13 and am down 13.6 pounds. I'm happy with that. I'm dying for some green beens or broccoli though.

Thanks for the responses!

I didn't mix my veggies first round and haven't yet my second round, but I think I want to start. Salads with lettuce, tomato, cukes and onions sound much more appetizing than just lettuce.

Anyone else?

I started mixing veggies my 2nd round and found no difference in my later rounds' losses. However, technically it IS off protocol but your body may do fine with it. http://hcgdietinfo.com/hcgdietforums...es/biggrin.png

By the way, congrats on a great first round loss!!!

I have tomato and lettuce together. I have had cucumbers in place of a fruit with no trouble.

I've also had cucumbers in place of a fruit. Technically both tomatoes and cucumbers are actually fruits.

I love baby spinach with cut up orange pieces. so good. Mixing never bothered me
