    You have a medical condition that requires this? Don't mean to pry. Just yes or no?

    Because if there's no immediate crisis that requires this, it's unlikely to get you sustainable weight loss. I'd be miserable too living like that.
    The real struggle is learning how to live while losing. You don't learn that on diets.

    Been on Nutrimed for over 4 weeks, down to almost 20lbs... but I am on the 500 cals per day... IDK why you are not losing... Are you drinking your shakes on schedule? Are you drinking enough water? Are you taking your potassium? I would check to see if you are low in Vit D and Magnesium? I have stayed steady on my weight since I take my shakes and my pills on time... including fiber... I know even with 20lbs I still have a lot more to go.

    WTF???? 500 calories a day???? why would you do that to your self. who has said to do that diet? 500 calories a day is dangerous. I seriously question a doctor who would put someone on that kind of restrictions.

    500 calories a day is too little unless you are doing a 5:2 fast. which means 2 days of 500 calories and the other 5 at maintenance. But if you are eating 500 calories a day every day then that is a recipe for disaster. and unless under close drs care and they are monitoring you should be eating more. lean mass and muscle is being loss not to mention literally starving yourself of vital calories an nutrients.
