Can I have Lamb on Phase 2 of the hCG Diet?

Lamb is a very fatty meat, so it’s not a meat we would eat on P2. All the allowed proteins of the hCG Diet are very lean and one of the main principles in Dr. Simeon’s diet was keeping as much fat as possible out of the diet. The 2ndary reason we might apply is that being so fatty, it has a lot more calories per gram by weight, which would make it difficult to stay within the 500-800 calorie diet utilizing a meat like this. I hope that helps!
