Weight Loss Teas
There are a few teas that I really like to drink during protocol and when not on protocol.
Two of them are made by Triple Leaf
Super Slimming
Detox
I have found the best price on the links I have provided. I will usually choose to buy the 6 boxes at a time option which is a better value.
I have also tried the Ultra Slimming tea from the same maker. I have no idea why but the super slimming tea works better for me.
A SUPER Cleansing tea (if you get my drift) is made by Edom Labs.
This one is a serious “roto rooter”. Be careful when buying this tea. The first time I tried to purchase online I never got the product. Now I order directly from Edom. On their site is approved online stores.

Another tea I LOVE is not a cleansing tea but is very tasty and I think helps with appetite and chocolate cravings.
Mate Chocolatté Tea (Organic)
I have found the BEST price so far at iherb and if you use the code below you will get $5.00 off your first order. Plus the shipping is very reasonable and they ship fast as well.

Hi Colleen,
I’m very grateful for your web-site and all your vlogs! I’m trying all you suggest re: skin care. I’m on R1P2 VLCD # 9. I’ve released 10.2 so far on hcg injections of 15u/day. I had my 1st gain day! Ouch! .6 lb. I’m freakin a bit though because, I DID NOT GO OFF PROTOCOL.
Changes day before my .6 gain: 1)I did do a Cali Kicker to experiment on day # 8What the heck?? I did not exercise, or do anything different except 2)added garlic cloves to my cabbage and grouper soup. First time ever doing a soup. 3)Also started using pure stevia vs. truvia on day 8 also and 4) had a cup of Yerba Mate green tea w/ stevia
Tom not due for another 7 days. What happened?? Any insights?
Thank you for all the pearls of wisdom, btw: you look fabu!
Hi Ana,
The cali kicker normally helps with releases so that isn’t it. Changing to pure stevia is a good idea too. Up to this point your body has been losing more than a pound a day so it could just be a coincidence that your body decided to make an adjustment to get use to what is happening to it at the same time as your few small changes. Maybe your body retained some fluid after the soup, so in saying that if it were me the main thing I would wonder about is the soup Increase your water to help flush out any access retention and keep doing the great job you have been doing and all will be fine;)
Colleen =)

This website has great info too 🙂

The only thing you want to be cautious about is the Braggs Amino.
Not that is is “bad” but some dieters experience either a stall or a little gain when the incorporate this ingredient.
Phase 2 recipe
Chicken & Cabbage Soup
100 grams chicken
2 C. Cabbage
2 C. Low Sodium Chicken Broth (or 1 C. Water, 1 C. broth)
2 Tbsp Bragg’s amino acids
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 Tbsp. Chopped onion
Seasonings to taste: Garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, Mrs. Dash, salt & pepper
Cook chicken in broth mixture along with spices. Let simmer for a few minutes after the chicken is fully cooked. Add cabbage and cook until desired tenderness of cabbage.

I tried the Cali kicker…I’m on P2 VLCD36 no change to my diet been losing nice and slow at 0.3 and 0.4 per day. The day I tried the cali kicker, the next morning I gained a whole POUND! A 1 lb gain is going to set me back 2-3 dys now… I’ll just stick to lemon tea.
Hi Paula,
WOW -that is the very 1st time I have ever heard of that happening! Yet as we all know every “body” is different and won’t necessarily react the same as another one. Good luck with your journey!
hello im getting ready to start the hcg but the website you get yours from is all sold out, so I was wondering if you had another place or know of a different site that is safe to order from?
