Question for new round 1

Dawnie · 01-20-2013, 01:32 PM

Hi All,
Completely new to this site - I am doing one 23 day (30 day with cleanse and load days) to try to lose about 10-15 Lbs gained after my Rotator Cuff surgery, done back in March 2012 - really messed with my normal workouts and I gained 20 lbs over 6 months, steady 3-4 per month (sigh.....) lost 7 with HARD work.... But stalled in November no matter what I did, eating well, workouts - Dr suggested this - RX version - prefilled per measured so no guesswork (thank goodness - would have been nervous about mixing solution and filling needles etc.

Never been "skinny" - never will be - I'm OK with that - just want to be my healthy weight 135-140 ... At 147 before loading - this is my first load day and I don't know if I'm doing it right - Dr said more high fat, less carbs is better? What about whole wheat Pasta? (My favorite) with Alfredo? Yes or no. I REALLY would like to have some type of potatoes in the next day but am afraid I'll pick the wrong ones. Also would love a doughnut or 3 (Krispy Kremes - I almost NEVER eat those anyway so I figured why not. But I don't want to mess this up and be starving at work through the week so ???

Sorry so long, I was just surfing and found this site Friday and have been reading and reading - so many ideas and tips that I really appreciate.

Thanks for listening - I will figure out how to post stats and whatnot and update my profile. BTW, I am doing the 800 calorie a day plan so I think this is the place to be as I have a bit more leeway on my plan (so the Dr told me) with less severe restrictions on some items then the original plan.

Till later
Dawnie

I think the high fat loading is important - but if you want the donut and potatoes - eat them. I don't think you can mess it up - add some butter to those potatoes and you raised your fat intake - Alfredo sauce with your pasta makes that a meal that is high in fat. It's only two days - enjoy loading!

High fat and foods you are saying good bye to for a long time is what I do. Good luck

Thanks very much - did OK first day - not so much today - didn't eat enough as I was at work and on the phones constant - 30 minute lunch as we were short-handed due to the holiday- just got home and am frozen in front of the fridge - ate almost nothing so far - should I add another day to my loading? I'm off tomorrow and will be home so would be easier to do - I have injections for a full 30 days so I cando it - really confused .....

this is my first round so i'm not expert and i'm not doing injections but i've read about people doing 3 loading days if needed. If you couldn't load today i would do another day to make sure you're ready

I would definitely add another loading day. It's crucial that you load well in order to have a successful round. In the book, "Weight-Loss Apocalypse", it says that if you don't load we'll, it can take up to two weeks of the low calorie protocol before you will start burning fat.

Dawnie · 01-21-2013, 06:21 PM

Thanks so much - I will add one more day of loading - I read the "original" Dr S version of the book over the last few hours and I am so glad I posted my question here and you guys responded so quickly - you have no idea how much that helped!! It really saved me from what could have been a VERY bad week or 2 and I may have given up ... So again, thank you !!!!

So how are you doing? I saw your other post in another thread and if you need help you can always come here!! We have a thread for P3 if you are interested. That way you can find out what to eat!! And how--the most important part of the protocol is to learn how to keep it off. Hope you have had a great round!
