With chili? with wasabi? with smoky caramel? with baco... no, wait, you can't have that one!

I don't want to scare the precious fairy away, but maybe we can gently suggest that she make an appearance at ya'lls houses?

I'm just sayin'... if Santa can get to all the kids in one night, the fairy can get to all the dieters... ya know?

Flutter, let's continue to watch each other, I swear our weight is synchronising just like TOMs of women living together!
Soren, wish I could be as free thinking as you but my stupid analytical side of the brains does not agree!
Dawn and Adi, what ? you guys are still marching down! I want to be there!
Librarygirl, seems like counting really works!
brewstate, March could be your month!
Christina, March is looking good for you in spite of the muscle weight you must be gaining!
Sher, what's up darling ? time to grin and bear it , if you look closely many of us are in the same boat!
Eieo, OMG! you are almost at the goal!
Tryingjudd, really witty!poor whoosh fairy! Although she might enjoy the chocolate after all!
Ended Feb at 159.6

Seriously, though... group hug for those annoyed or just plain ticked off!

Thank you! I'm joining in. That whoosh fairy OWES me

[adillenal]

Goal for March is to maintain 140 as my highest UD bounce.
2/26 UD 141.2
2/27 DD DNW - at Houston Livestock Show
2/28 UD DNW - at Houston Livestock Show
3/01 DD 140.4
3/02 UD 138.4
3/03 DD 141.4 This is great after a cookie, brownie, ice cream UUAD
3/04 UD 141.6 There is my UUAD effect from Saturday
3/05 DD 142.8 Still paying for my cookies on Saturday
3/06 UD 140.0 Love Potato DD's
3/07 DD 140.2

[SlowSure]

4 March 147.4 lbs
5 March 146 lbs (new low this time: Potato hack)
6 March 146 lbs (new low has held)
7 March 145 lbs (low is maintaining; thinking of adding a rice meal to UD PH)

I'm cold, cranky, headache-y and tired. My exercise sessions are feeble but... I've broken that stall (I'm reasonably confident enough to say that after 4 days) and I promised myself that I would follow the PH for a minimum of 5-7 to try and get past the downsides that other JUDDDers reported. I'll review tomorrow and Sunday to see if I feel better and can face doing this until March 17 (OH returns from business trip).

[kgirlpure]

[tobelowcarber]

Dec Loss -6.6 lb
Jan Loss- 4.4 lb
Feb Loss- 1.4 lb

March goal to get below 118 lb

3/1: 121.0 UUAD
3/2: 125.0 DD 663 cal
3/3: 122.8 UD, not hungry 1000 cal
3/4: 123.2 DD 616 cal
3/5: 123.2 UD 1930 cal
3/6: 124.4 DD 565 cal (ate too much yesterday, but was able to stop PMS binge by eating more eggs and meat)
3/7: 123.4 UD

[TryingJudd]

April loss: 7 pounds
May loss: 4 pounds
June loss: 5 pounds
July gain: 1 pound
August loss: 4 pounds
Sept loss: 10 pounds
Oct loss: nada
Nov loss: nope
Dec loss: 4 pounds
Jan loss: 3 pounds
Feb loss: sadly, no

Total loss to date: 37 pounds

March goal: 2 goals actually - hit 174 (no longer obese!) and then the 160's!!!
Ended Jan AND Feb at 178.

3.1 UD 178
3.2 UD 178
3.3 UD 179.6, 3 mile walk w weights
3.4 DD 180.6, 335 cals
3.5 UD 178.4, 1425 cals
3.6 UD 179.6, 1501 cals
3.7 DD 180.0 350 cals planned

I am down to reporting single calories LOL but really, at my size how do I gain on 1400 or 1500 calories??? Aaaack.

[brewstate]

I bet the whoosh fairy is a sad woman, probably hangs around nothing but women dieting so there is little to no supply of chocolate around. Maybe if we shoved some in her mouth, she'd be nice to us and bring us some weight loss.

February was awful but I have some new strategies and am determined to get out of the 150's. Goal 149.xx

3/1: DD 157.8
3/2: UD 155.8
3/3: DD 155.8 No bounce. First time I've stuck to my calories in a long time
3/4: UD 155.6 No reward for DD but I was soooo good!
3/5: DD 157.2 Mostly stuck to UD calories again. Will see progress soon maybe Mid month rapidly approaching though.
3/6: UD 155.4 Survived a passable DD with a potluck in the morning, a family trip to arby's, and a friend bringing over gormet cupcakes for us to eat, so all in all a WIN
3/7: UD 157.8 Skipped Breakfast, light lunch, and then dealt badly with some emotional stuff with a friend by falling head first into a huge bag of chocolate trail mix. Trying for a low low DD today

[hot-in-texas]

Elise, lol at first I thought your friend had fallen head first into something
TJ I think Elise could be onto something. If you add your DD and UD calories and divide by 2, I think you may be in starvation mode don't want you to starve yourself sweetie

[Darcel]

Hello...I'm sort of new..I did Atkins in the 90s and it was wonderful. I got divorced in the 2000 and fell off the wagon....Now it is time to shine. Everything is back on track except my weight. As usual, we put ourselves last and look what has happened. It is a new day!

3/1/13 - 165.5
3/7/13 - 161.0

Induction is hard but working. I have the chocolate shake for a snack, have a ton of eggs boiled and a bunch of chicken breast and some cream cheese for variety. I have my frozen veggies also (low or no carb ones) and tons of red peppers. Week one almost over...by my b-day I want to be in the 150s...

Thanks!

New Low?!

[TryingJudd]

Hey all - thanks for the insights. I am keeping my UDs a bit lower than JUDDD numbers this week because I am trying 5:2 so only have 2 DDs. I admit I have not read the program thoroughly though and only have been going on what I read here in the forums. Should I be sticking with JUDDD calculated numbers (in my case roughly 350/1800 at 20%) just drop down to 2 DDs?

New decade for Hot in Texas - Woot!!!

[JMBM]

159.2 3/6
156.8 3/7

Not bad after one DD of getting back on track. I think lowering my DD number closer to what the calculator says did it. Was eating the 500 and was doing fine but started noticing the numbers not moving as much toward the end of induction.

[JMBM]

[shirlc]

Goal for March...maintain under 130; DD 500, UD 1600

Week One - ended the week at 129

Week Two
3/3 - 129.5 - UUAD
3/4 - DNW - DD - (524 calories; 39 net carbs)
3/5 - 129.5 - UD - (1600 calories; 124 net carbs)
3/6 - 130 - DD - (515 calories; 40 net carbs)

[deboratpc]

Goal for March is 210 Ended Feb. at 217.0

3/1 ~ 217.9
3/2 ~ 216.8
3/3 ~ 219.4 (had an uuad yesterday, but it is my birthday weekend!)
3/4 ~ 216.4
3/5 ~ 217.0
3/6 ~ 216.0
3/7 ~ 217.4 (I am ready to stop bouncing around the same numbers, but it is better than where I used to be.)

[DianeDelgado]

I ended February @ 170.8 (I think), after doing a 3 day PH. Then I went to Portland, and really didn't measure or weigh (food and myself)
Starting with a DD today, and maybe if I go through 2 full weeks of rotations I will try the PH again. It was easy, and filling...and, I saw weight loss....I just hope it stays next time (if I end it with starting good rotations )

3/6 DD 172.0
3/7 UD 170.2 sick with a cold, but will eat my UD #'s

[deedee]

3/1: 188.5
3/3: 187.5

I stuck to my JUDDD numbers and continued to lose though slowly. I've just increased my numbers since I'm in maintenance, but not worrying if I stay below by even a couple of hundred calories since I could still stand to lose some more. It's nice to know the extra calories are there though if I want them. I'd say try it with your JUDDD numbers for a bit and see what happens.
