Anyone have success stories from Metabolism Miracle program?

I would try one of those protein bars-especially the ones by Atkins and the shakes work as well. I am on day one and seems to be going good for me. I hope I can stick with this

I haven't been able to lose any more than 5 lbs in the last 6 months, after a 20 lb gain when I decided to stop taking the migraine medicine prescribed for me specifically for the side effect that was supposed to be weight loss. It wasn't working and was expensive. I regret going off it because I no longer have many clothing options that still fit.

I downloaded electronic copies of The Paleo Diet and the Metabolism Miracle books because I am at the end of my rope. I'm a Midwest girl, and I'm more inclined to try MM because I LOVE dairy products. It will be hard enough to give up skim milk for 8 weeks. I don't like that I also have to give up fruit for 8 weeks, but that seems like less of a sacrifice if I can have cheese. I just need to remember it's only for 8 weeks, and then I can start adding carbs back in.

The hardest thing for me will be meal planning as I have 2 growing and always hungry boys and a husband who would never give up carbs, AND I have a sales job where I often travel. On day 1 today, I am looking forward to eating at my favorite sushi restaurant, and plan to order tuna salad (big bowl of raw tuna with a spicy soy sauce) and a seaweed salad for lunch. This is probably not the best time to start this diet with a big 4 day design show coming up, where food and beverages flow liberally. But if get these first 3 days in (I hear they are the HARDEST) I feel I'll be less likely to at least go overboard.

Wish me luck!

I have been working the program since early February, and while I don't have access to a scale, I have been measuring myself monthly (as Diana Kress suggests in the book) and have lost over 22", dropped two sizes (from a 14 to a 10). I was strict in phase one, and the first few days are horrible, but when you know that and you push through, it gets easier. Have lots of unlimited food available to eat, and eat whenever you are hungry! I found I wasn't hungry when I did that: cheese sticks, almonds, cucumbers, celery with peanut butter were my go to foods. I was also strict on phase two for the first 3 - 4 weeks, then summer vacation set in (I'm a teacher) and I've been in a phase 3 mode for the past month. I still find it strange to have to eat carbs before I go to bed, but I am faithful at doing it. I exercise 3 - 4 times a week, both cardio and strength training and have found I have so much more energy than I did before starting MM.

I suffer from hypothyroidism, am over 50 and pre-menopausal. All factors that made it difficult for me to lose any weight/inches, even when I began a 5K training routine in November. I would highly recommend this program to anyone who fits the metabolism B profile. I was very skeptical, but thought I'd give it a go, and am so glad that I did.
