    I usually have a greek yogurt with extra blueberries added for breakfast.

    For lunch a tuna packet with 1/2 tbsp mayo and celery and cucumbers and a pack of Special K 90 cal crackers (italian herb)

    For dinner a big salad, a small chicken breast, and some kind of veggie and brown rice.

    Snacks are usually string cheese and grapes or celery with peanut butter, or a Fiber One bar.

    I AM NOT LOSING WEIGHT, AND I am getting a little frustrated. I work out daily and drink tons of water...I don't get it. I am wondering if I am not eating enough?

    It looks like you've lost 4 lbs according to your ticker! What do you mean you're not losing weight? That doesn't look like a ton of calories--how many do you average eating versus burning?


    Well, I weighed today and lost 2.5 more lbs. but I have steadily been doing this for 2 months now, and working out almost everyday burning anywhere from 200 to 400 calories a day + just normal daily calorie burn (i.e. walking , laundry, throwing the ball with the dogs). I guess I just thought with my drastic lifestyle change it would come off a little faster, and I have a tendency to forget to eat sometimes or eat too little and that just works in reverse.
  • breakfast:100% whole wheat toast+1 tbls.peanut butter and a green apple.

    snack:celery

    lunch:plain oatmeal (i added) raisens,ground cinnimon,and 0 cal. sugar.

    dinner:nice salad w/ boiled egg,cherry tomatos,grilled chicken,bacon bitz,1 tbls. low-fat dressing.

    6.5 lbs in 2 months is excellent progress! People seem to think that 2 lbs a week is normal...but that's actually accelerated weight loss. .5-1 lbs per week is normal, and even keeping up 1 lb a week is difficult for most people. Fat loss is a very slow process because it's not what our bodies are meant to do. Exercise is preventative, not curative, and we generally burn many fewer calories than we can consume.

    Honestly...getting up for that 3am feeding isn't doing anything but disrupting your sleep cycles.
    Any time your blood sugar is low, day or night, you will release the hormone glucagon, which promotes glucose to either be released from storage in the liver/muscles or created from parts of amino acids and fatty acids. Your liver won't give you 'too much'--your blood always contains about the equivalent of two packs of sugar. So instead of disrupting your valuable REM sleep, have a good meal before bed and sleep through the night. Lack of sleep will cause the release of cortisol, which actually makes it harder to lose fat.

    It's only sold through network marketing. I have a distributorship and a website. I'll send you a private message if you're interested, since this isn't the place for advertising. I usually just buy it for myself and family and friends.
