Rapid weight-loss: looking for friends to help motivate me!

Hi all, I am currently following the Dr.Bernstein diet regiment and have lost 43lbs this far. I am no longer going to the clinics as I can no longer afford to, but I am continuing to self-inject and orally take vitamin supplements. I am eating ~800 calories per day and am always looking for tips and advice, as well as other lovely friends so we can help motivate each other! I still have about 96lbs to lose so I have a long journey ahead of me.

    That is a terrible diet plan.

    It's against MFP guidelines to promote unsafe - unhealthy very low calorie diets.

    It's # 3: http://www.myfitnesspal.com/welcome/guidelines

    Just fyi, the moderators will probably shut this thread down. MFP does not promote unhealthy diet plans.

    I wanted to offer a brief explanation for the locking of this thread.

    The forum guidelines include this item:

    3. No Promotion of Unsafe Weight-Loss Techniques or Eating Disorders

    a) Posts intended to promote potentially unsafe or controversial weight loss products or procedures, including non-medically prescribed supplements or MLM products will be removed without warning.
    b) Profiles, groups, messages, posts, or wall comments that encourage anorexia, bulimia, or very low calorie diets of any kind will be removed, and may be grounds for account deletion. This includes positive references to ana/mia, purging, or self-starving. Our goal is to provide users with the tools to achieve their weight management goals at a steady, sustainable rate. Use of the site to promote, glamorize, or achieve dangerously low levels of eating is not permitted.
    c) Photos intended to glamorize extreme thinness will be deleted.
    d) Those seeking support in their recovery from eating disorders are welcome at MyFitnessPal.
