So I am down 7 lbs as of this morning.I was hoping fro 10 but on the bright side I am in the 140's!!

is the end of week 3 and I am stuck at 6.6 lbs lost. This past week has been a yo yo. Up and down all week! FRUSTRATING!!!

Tomorrow is the end of week 2 for me but I weighed today and am down 6.6 lbs!! So far so good!!!!

Ketone strips are at Walmart in the pharmacy in the diabetic section. I can sympathize with your frustration at the slow loss but keep at it. This is my second round of Atkins and the first time was so easy. Not this time! Maybe it is the age...55 (yikes!). I am 5'3" and started 2 weeks ago at 156.6. This morning I am 150!…

I am starting tomorrow so I am hoping for at least 10lbs. I did Atkins several years ago and was successful so I know it works. I am excited to have this group for support!

Has anyone found a replacement bar for the FMD bars? I am struggling with phase 2 big time.

I am on week 3 and have not given up coffee. I am doing fine on the program. Down 8lbs and still losing.

Well am over the stomach bug and back on the plan. It's not like I was eating the days I was sick. As a matter of fact I WASN'T eating. I began eating Sunday very sparingly. And I ate what was listed for ph3. I didn't weigh Monday. Jumped on the scales this morning all excited to find I had gained a pound and a half.…

In my first week of ph2 my boss took me to lunch for admin professional day. I chose Ruby Tuesday. I got the salad from the bar and ordered grilled chicken breast plain. Easy peasy.!

I completely agree!

Today started my phase 1 week 2 and I lost 6 lbs but this morning was up 1.6 lbs! Yikes!! I don't like that. I am hoping tomorrow will be better.

I felt very hungry the first couple of days but it seemed after the third day I was not as hungry and really had to force the food in. Hang in there!! It will be worth it!!

I totally agree about losing weight and menopause. Until you have been there you can't understand. I am keeping my fingers crossed that this plan will be the magic bullet for the menopause fat train. I actually never had a weight problem until I hit 50. Getting old sucks! Good luck Irlene!

I live in Blue Ridge, Virginia.

Yesterday was my first day of phase 3. Breakfast was sprouted bread toast with egg, tomato and red onion. Almonds(raw)for a snack. Lunch was the egg salad with spinach and dinner was salmon and baked sweet potato. This morning's breakfast is the same as yesterday.

I have not given up coffee. I do not have a cup first thing in the morning since that is a big no no but I do drink a cup after I have been at work for a couple of hours. I don't drink full decaf. I usually do half caff the first cup and then go to decaf. I will also have a decaf cup in the afternoon. I am down 4.4 lbs and…

I started FMD Monday and am down 4.4 lbs this morning!!! I started phase 3 which I think will be my favorite. I love nuts! I can't believe how much I am eating and still losing weight. On weekends my hubby and I always go out and find something to get into. I will take my nuts for a snack and a couple of wraps in the…

I am 54 years old and currently weigh 154 and I am 5'3". Hopefully my age and weight won't continue to match after 28 days! I started the diet on Monday April 15 and am down 1.8 lbs. I have always been a small person so any extra weight really shows. And thanks to genetics I look like a barrel when I gain. I was diagnosed…

Liked!!

I had the turkey bacon and celery for breakfast, egg whites for both snacks and the Southwestern beef and cabbage stew for lunch and dinner. I didn't enjoy not having friut but I am down 2 lbs in 2 days so I :happy: guess it's worth the sacrifice! And I don't care if it is water weight...weight is weight! :)
