Phase 2 Diet Menu

 

Menu Example

 

Weigh Yourself: Wake up, go potty, weigh yourself, and track it on your tracking sheet. This is EXTREMELY important to your success!  Weigh and track everyday!  You should measure as frequently as you like and track this, as well, and we recommend at least weekly.  We all need to be reminded it’s Pounds and INCHES!   Below is a sample of the Simeon’s daily diet plan.

Drops: Take 20 drops (1/2 dropper) under your tongue and leave it there for 2 minutes and then swallow the residue.  Do not drink or eat anything 10 minutes before or after. You can take the drops 3-4 x a day, every 4 hours.

Breakfast:
Coffee/Tea/Water. 1 tablespoon of milk per day. Use Stevia for sweetener. If you need to eat, you can have one of your fruit choices. During the first week, you can even add in some egg whites in the morning. You will experience some cravings the first 4-5 days and the egg whites will help. Adding supplements also will help with cravings. Magnesium, calcium and L-glutamine are recommended.

Only 2 fruit servings are to be eaten in a day but can be spread out throughout the day as snacks.

Lunch:
100 grams (weigh raw) of lean beef, veal, chicken (boneless, skinless breast only), sea bass, flounder, sole, halibut, other fresh white fish, lobster, crab, or shrimp.
One vegetable – spinach, chard, beet greens, lettuce of any kind, tomatoes, celery, fennel, onions – white, yellow, or red, red radishes, cucumbers, asparagus, or cabbage.
1 Grissini or Melba Toast

Snack:
One serving of fruit (orange, apple, 1/2 grapefruit, 10-12 large strawberries or 1.5 cups sliced)

Dinner: same as lunch but always vary your choice of foods to keep a variety.
100 grams (weigh raw) of lean beef, veal, chicken (boneless, skinless breast only), sea bass, flounder, sole, halibut, other fresh white fish, lobster, crab, or shrimp.
One vegetable – spinach, chard, beet greens, lettuce of any kind, tomatoes, celery, fennel, onions – white, yellow, or red, red radishes, cucumbers, asparagus, or cabbage.
1 Grissini or Melba Toast

Track Calories: You must track calories and get as close to 500 as possible.  This requires more veggies.  Choose your two protein sources for the day and fruits and make up the rest of the calories in vegetables.  Going under 500 calories causes stalls and hunger issues.  (Click Here) for post on Tracking and its importance!!

Drink plenty of water and tea throughout the day. You are allowed 1 whole a lemon a day and seasonings of choice. Be sure to read our post on seasonings and teas.

    Hello,
    I see in the sample menu pictured above you gave chicken, green salad with Tomatoes….
    Is that allowed? I'm trying to figure out this one line “One vegetable – spinach, asparagus, cabbage, tomatoes etc” wouldn't what's pictured above be concerned two vegetables with the green and the tomatoes?
    I'm trying to figure out my menu for P2 and would like to get it right.
    Thanks for all this info your site is truly a blessing.

    • Joy Bird on January 8, 2016 at 4:49 pm

      Tomatoes are considered in most diets including this one to be a friut. the spinach is the veggie and the tomato is fruit. Hope that is helpful.

      • Carolina on March 4, 2016 at 1:41 pm

        How much Spinach, asparagus, cabbage is allowed per day? Please help me, today is my second day VLCD, and because another website, I already messed up. I cooked a soup with chicken, onions and zucchini…I’m so STRESS!

  2. Shawna Culp on August 20, 2010 at 8:07 pm

    When tomato is mixed with any veggies we count it as the fruit. You are
    allowed two fruits a day so you would be able to add tomato to your salad.
    I used onion flakes too because the whole not mixing veggies left for a
    bland plate sometimes and this seemed to work well for me. Let us know how
    you do!!

    • Heather on August 31, 2013 at 12:10 pm

      A tomato is considered a fruit because of its seeds, if that helps any.

  4. Mollykslewis on October 7, 2010 at 9:18 pm

    How much is a serving of vegetables and fruit for the weight loss phase of the diet?

    • Shawna Culp on October 7, 2010 at 9:20 pm

      Fruit is medium apple, medium sized strawberries etc. Veggies I did not limit them but are enough to finish my 500 calories like 1-2 cups of cabbage for example

  6. Veronica Wheeler on February 22, 2011 at 1:42 am

    how much is a vegetable? quantity wise?

  7. Shawna Culp on February 22, 2011 at 11:29 pm

    around 2 cups but it really depends on what kind so go by calories.. Get your two 100 g protein servings in and make up the rest of you calories in veggies to get 500

  8. Shawna Culp on February 23, 2011 at 2:31 am

    I am on round 1, phase 2, day 18 of the vlcd, and my totm has arrived. I would like to know if I could extend the drops for 1 more week, before starting the 3rd phase to achieve my weight loss goal. I have 10 more pounds to go.

    • Shawna Culp on March 24, 2011 at 12:53 pm

      You can go up to 40 days. 🙂

    Are we allowed to have add salt to our food?

    • Anonymous on March 24, 2011 at 9:55 pm

      Yes, sea salt is best, but use it sparingly/in small amounts because it can cause water retention and show a gain on the scale.

    I have about 60 lbs to lose.  Everyone sounds like they do not need to lose as much as I do.  I am 210 and 5 ft 7 in.  My doctor says I am supposed to be 150 lbs.  My cousin did this diet and lost 31 lbs in 35 days.  I am trying to wrap my head around it all, but it is a little intimidating.  I do have to say there seems to be such wonderful support from the diet coaches. . .  I think I just have ti JUMP!

        Thanks Shawna.  My current pressing issue is to go with drops or injections.  There is a place called DietDoc by my house who swears the injections are more effective than the drops.  Also, how important is the 2 week detox/cleanse before you start the diet.  I have not started anything yet, getting over a wicked flu.  WOuld love to hear what you think about drops vs. shots.  Thanks!

    I’ve seen where you can eat fat free cottage cheese for your protein.  What is the amount and calories if you use it for your protein? 

    • Anonymous on July 17, 2011 at 2:44 am

      It is the same weight as the other proteins, 100gms.

  20. Jilldamron on July 15, 2011 at 2:54 am

    Hello, got my drops today. I have been re reading everything, but I don’t know if i missed something, but wonder how long do i do phase1, then go into phase 2. I have to really gear myself up for this, cause I do not like meats/chicken etc.. i am eating a bit of fish like tiliapia or shrimp, but I don’t know how I am going to get the other proteins in. .. but most importantly, do i do phase 1 for a week or what? thanks for info!

  21. Jilldamron on July 15, 2011 at 9:31 pm

    can i put 5 drops in my mouth wait 2min put the other 5 in and wait 2 min and put the other 5 in? i can’t wait 2 mins to swallow all that at once.. it is hard to 2 min for any amount! ha

    • Shawna Culp on July 15, 2011 at 9:36 pm

    Round 1 Phase 2 Day 12   I’ve lost 20lbs so far.  I’m struggling with two things.  
    1st-  Been stuck for 3 days up a couple ounces, down and zero.  Ketones are about 30-40.  

    2nd-  I’m a career firefighter.  The other day we had a lengthy extrication in the morning.  Afterwards I was dizzy and really felt like I was going to pass out.  Is there something I can do to after exertion?  

    Thanks

  23. Robin on August 18, 2011 at 3:06 pm

    I have lost 10 lbs so far and been on the drops for 7 days but this morning I weighed myself and I gained 2 lbs!  can we have sprite zero or coke zero..since they are no calories?  I had a few drinks last night spiced rum and coke zero.  I think I gained water weight from the drinking.

    • Shawna Culp on August 18, 2011 at 3:09 pm

      no you cannot have soda or alcohol in p2 it will cause gains..

      Broccoli is not on the original protocol from P&I. There are some altered protocols that allow it but it does cause some people to stall

  25. Shawna Culp on November 3, 2011 at 2:51 pm

    Tell me about your tablet and how you are mixing.. Also 2 bottles for 40 days of msd.. Let’s look at your currently formula before giving up on it though.. Could need an adjustment

    I am new at this.  I was just reading and it said that we could only have two fruits a day and told us if we needed to eat at breakfast to eat one of the fruits.  Readings further down I found the example of the day …… it had a fruit for a snack and a fruit at lunch and and a fruit a supper.  That’s 3 fruits.
    not 2 fuits.  I want to do this right.  Please, what it right!

      *Breakfast:*
      Coffee/Tea/Water. 1 tablespoon of milk per day. Use Stevia for sweetener. If you need to eat, you can have one of your fruit choices.

      Only 2 fruit servings are to be eaten in a day.

    • admin on September 1, 2013 at 10:53 pm

      Heather- many take pain medications for different reasons on protocol. It may cause slowing from time to time but overall the results are close to the same even if on daily use.

    • admin on November 24, 2013 at 5:40 pm

      I would avoid imitation meats on protocol. You can make your own dressings there is a whole category for them under recipes top left of the blog. Butter I am afraid is out until after phase 2. Come join the support group https://www.facebook.com/groups/miracleskinnydrops/

  51. Melissia on January 26, 2014 at 5:32 pm

    I was curious why this page says take 20 drops and the meal site says 10. I’m 200lbs because I had a baby 3 months ago and I have done this diet before and was just below 140. I plan to get back to that in the next 6 months. This really works when I was using 10 drops before meals… Does using 20 makes difference or is it something that depends on the person?
    Thank you
    Melissia

    • Melissia on January 26, 2014 at 5:35 pm

      I understand, 10drops 6x a day or 20 3x a day. Which is most common or best?

      • admin on January 26, 2014 at 7:34 pm

        most common is 1/2 dropper 3-4x a day which is equal to 20, but some like to break it up throughout the day while others double up and do twice a day. It really depends on your schedule. I did twice a day dosing years ago. Most however do the 3-4x a day

    • admin on January 26, 2014 at 7:36 pm

      you only do 10 if you are new to the hormone and need to let your body adjust. Loading dose 10 3-4x a day and once on low calorie day you increase it to 1/2 dropper which is 20 drops. This is where the dropper fills to.

  52. Jojo on February 23, 2014 at 6:11 am

    When coming off the drops in phase 2 how many days do you stay at the 500 calories is it 2 or 3 days?

    • admin on February 23, 2014 at 9:12 pm

      72 hours after last dose

  53. Cathy Black on March 11, 2014 at 9:23 am

    On this example it shows for breakfast you take the drops before you eat. The rest of the example shows the drops after the meals. Does it matter if it is before or after?

    • admin on March 11, 2014 at 9:39 am

      does not matter.. you can take them either or just make it consistent daily- as much as you can

  54. ditta on May 13, 2014 at 9:20 am

      Banana, Kale and Coconut water are not on phase 2 protocol- but in theory yes you can blend any phase 2 approved foods

  55. Inna R on July 17, 2014 at 2:00 pm

    I am new to this diet and I have a question. It says that you can have only 1 lemon a day, I usually juice 2 lemons for my 48oz water. That’s how I drink my water through out the day. Is it ok or not?

    Thank you

    • admin on July 17, 2014 at 7:04 pm

      Cut up one lemon into smaller slices and spread it out throughout the day- you need to have at least 2 liters of liquid per day and the juice of one lemon for protocol.

    Can tomatoes be counted as a fruit and a vegetable.

    • admin on July 20, 2014 at 2:25 pm

      technically yes. Tomatoes are a fruit and their carb count definitely puts it into a fruit category. Many chose to use this as a fruit over a vegetable for this reason

  57. Colette on August 5, 2014 at 4:01 pm

    I’m having problems trying to get to my 500 calories each day. I do not eat any fruit or Melba. Can you suggest how much veggies I can add in and how many different kinds of veggies I can have in one day. I am one that cannot mix veggies or I gain weight. Any suggestions? Thank you!

      You can add in as many as needed- veggies as snacks in between meals times is fine. If you need specific menu help email me and we can work on it together miracleskinnydrops@gmail.com

    I just recalculated my drops for the day and went significantly over 96 drops. Is this something I should be worried about?

    • admin on December 28, 2014 at 6:25 pm

      no just lower them in range. the side effect of dose being too high is a little hunger

  60. Helena on April 6, 2015 at 2:07 pm

    I’m in a country where lemon is hardly available. Would it be ok to substitute lime?

    • admin on April 6, 2015 at 5:15 pm

      I would just leave it out. Lemon is optional

    Phase 2. Can I eat tuna?

    • admin on May 20, 2015 at 12:37 pm

      Tuna is not on phase 2 protocol. You can add it back in during phase 3

  63. John on May 25, 2015 at 2:43 pm

    Hello,

    I have been on Phase 2 for just over two weeks and have had good results. I find I am drinking a lot more coffee than I ever have to keep up my energy. I am a bit worried about consuming too much of it. I have heard of the great health benefits of substituting “bone broth” for coffee, but didn’t see any reference to any soups or broths on the site. Please let me know you thoughts.

    • admin on May 25, 2015 at 5:37 pm

      you can use broth on p2 and homemade bone broth would be okay as well. MCT oil some use for energy along with b complex

  64. Donna on July 28, 2015 at 10:11 pm

    I usually use injections, however I want to try the drops. How many days will 1 bottle yield? I’m looking to do a 40 day round.

    Thank you,

    • admin on July 30, 2015 at 8:06 am

      you will need two bottles for a 40 day round.

  65. Tonya on October 13, 2015 at 2:38 pm

    I hear where people are on the 2nd, 3rd and even 4th round of the 2nd phase. What are the numbers??? At the end of the 40 days do you do 2 days of loading again and then start another 40 days??? Thank you in advance for your help,

  66. cynthia on October 31, 2015 at 11:29 am

    I am starting but take prempo can I do that

    • admin on November 2, 2015 at 7:04 am

      yes it is fine to continue your meds

  67. Jennifer on December 4, 2015 at 6:52 am

    Hi Shawna,
    My name is Jennifer. I’m 5’5 229 lbs. I carry my weight pretty evenly distributed. I am very active through out the day. I am bummed that I just found you now and not prior to purchasing the drops I am currently using. I purchased my drops from GNC based on a recommendation from a friend that has had success with them. I’m been on phase 2 for a week as of today! I’ve lost just over 4 lbs. , however, I thought I’d loose quicker. I’ve been following protocol based on a few suggestions but now after finding you, I’m wondering if I’ve been doing it correctly. I use the dosage on the dropper which is I believe 1ml 2xs a day. I cannot stand the take so I have to wash it down with a drink. I thought that ChrystalLite would be safe on the site because it is zero calorie. Is this false? I wonder if that is slowing me down. I also have been using a smige of cream in my coffee based on the milk rule. Is this also files? Could that be sabotaging my weightless as well? I saw your recipients for cho delights and am curious why the nuts ad coconut oil are safe for all phases? I thought we couldn’t use any oil?

    I’d love to have some help from you. Since I’ve already purchased the GNC drops I’d like continue those. Do you know anything about them and if I’m using them properly? Help.. I want to get this right because I’ve made the commitment… But I’m hungry and think I should be losing more! Thanks so much. Jenn

  68. brenda on May 8, 2016 at 10:56 am

  71. Frances Jones on February 4, 2017 at 10:40 am

    I’m confused. Do we take the drops before breakfast & Lunch? And then after dinner? Thank u so glad you’re here to help. ??

    • admin on February 4, 2017 at 11:42 am

      you can do either.. It does not matter when just set a schedule. Typically 4-6 hours apart. It does not have to correlate with meal times

  72. Natascha Chevalier on April 5, 2017 at 6:31 pm
