This looks good. I will start next week (Feb 1).

I'm in!

Smoothie #1 (my personal favorite) 8oz Kefir 1 cup of frozen mixed fruit Blend Smoothie #2 8oz Chocolate Almond milk 1/2 banana 2-3 tbsp PB2 (powdered peanut butter) 1 scoop protein powder (optional)

I must be over packing my bag. I'm usually leaving work to go to the gym. I have 2 sets of clothes - one is for working out and the other is what I'm wearing after my shower. I have a pair of running shoes and flip flops. I have socks and underwear (and extras). I have a sweat towel, a bath towel and a washcloth. If I'm…

Seems like you're eating a lot of bread, too. My wellness coach suggested I cut back on the bread because I was eating only about 1500 calories and still not losing. She said I should also increase my protein.

I started over. I'm on Day 8 now. I am down 5lbs. Yay me! :bigsmile:

I hate exercise. Period. I will go walking if someone goes with me. I have started to go to a dance class a couple of times a week. If I could maintain/lose weight without the exercise, I would probably never do it. :-/

Y'all started today? Darn. I guess I should do it, too. Let me take a nap and think about it. :-) Seriously. I was reading the book and it was saying something about not doing strenuous exercise because we will probably have really low energy because of the 17DD meal plan. How did you feel after the workout? I've been…

Well you added a few days and I'm still behind you. I started over completely. I am on Day 3 now. :-)

You're not eating enough. Eating 1200-1300 calories a day, then burning upwards of 2000? You don't have that many too burn! Your body is in starvation mode, and is holding on to everything it can just in case you don't feed her again (which you don't). This is how it was explained to me when I did WW a few years ago. You…

I messed my whole thing up! Today I started all over again at day one. I know that I can do this, I just have to stick with it. I'm doing pretty good today. What I am trying to do is eat exactly what's on the paper instead of coming up with my own meals this time. I just picked up Jillian Michaels 30-day shred today...…

Hi Ladies. I made the soup as well (I used okra). I love the soup, but I'm a little tired of it. I just can't eat it every day. I think I am going to freeze the rest for another time. Any other recipes that are just really great?

I was doing great (down 1.4 lbs). Today I'm doing sucky! I am in total carb meltdown! I made the chicken soup last night, and will be back on target tomorrow.

I only have the book. I use the recipes that are in there. I have no plans of buying the recipe book.

I picked up the book from my local library. I've used this diet before and it really works. I went on a cruise and gained 10lbs. I used this diet to lose the weight. If I did it once, I can do it again!

Current Weight: 190 lbs Height: 5'4 My little sis just lost a lot of weight and she looks GREAT! I need to get back down to the size I used to be so I don't have to replace my whole wardrobe with bigger clothes.

Is this new? I'm pretty sure this is not a "first lady" idea. They were doing portion control when I was in school (I'm 35). I think portion distortion is the issue. We think 3oz of meat is just a little bit when that is a normal portion size. A lot of the things we eat are over-sized. We want a quarter pounder, not 3 oz.…

I don't know if it does or not... I haven't seen in slimming in my waist. What it is good for, though, is back support. Also, I notice that when I'm wearing mine, I consciously (or unconsciously) tighten my ab muscles.

Wow...
