Baseline days - 2 "S" servings before 3 pm Carb Down days - 1 "S" serving before 3 pm Carb Up days - 1 "S" serving before 3pm, followed by 2 "SA" servings after 3 at you 2 last meals of the day. High Carb day -(weeks 7 &8) 3 "S" servings during the course of the day - no time rule. Cheat Day - (weeks 7 &8) eat what you want when you want - YAY! Make sure to read the notes on each suggested menu day. Baseline days you can have "FF" foods at the end of the day. On maintenance cycle you can have fruit. On carb up days, be sure you excercise or else you can only have 1 "SA" meal after 3. You'll get the hang of this soon enough, I promise ![]()

Hello
Hi,
I'm new to the Code, Week 2 Day 4, and I gotta say, reading all your supportive and positive messages really helped me get through Week 1 - so, thanks! I was pretty beat the first week but now that I'm eating a few carbs I have a lot more energy, even on Carb down days. So to those of you who are just starting out, hang in there! I have a quick question, if anyone knows the answers it would be much appreciated ![]() I read in the FAQ's here that we can have whipping cream or half n' half with our coffee and sweetener. I also saw in the book that coffee is considered a Free Food, which we can have it as a compliment to our meals but not in place of a meal. Are we allowed to have coffee/tea and a little half and half between meals? Thanks so much! |

That was fast-thanks!
Looks like I'll have to start enjoying black coffee, I like to use my 20g of B fat as cheese with my protein. Congrats on your huge weightloss success, Renee! |

. Maybe it's my imagination so I will keep an eye on my other stuff. I suppose those inches can first come off of most "weird" places ![]() Thanks, Renee! I was leaning that way as well. I am meeting a friend for a late lunch/early dinner. No drinks (oh well) and then if it;s before 3 I'll get some sushi and if not - sashimi ![]() [quote=tamjlm;11124758 Scenario 2 seems much better. NOT GOOD to carb up 2 days in a row (I've had that experience on the holidays....) It reverses progress and turns your cravings back on big time! Downside was that I went 5 hours without eating. Waited for the bus for 45 minutes on the way home.... - still have a headache. This WOE is unbelievable- we really learn to appreciate everything we eat, and it takes simple, good food to make us happy.![]() [/QUOTE]Thanks, Tam. You and Renee agree - scenario #2. I am OK with it. I went w/out food for 5 hours once as well - wasn't pretty. Now I always carry something with me (Atkins or EAS shakes in my car). I agree with you - I am much more mindful as to what I put into my mouth on this WOE. I want to lose weight/fat but I also want to eat healthy. I finally got stevia and banned splenda around here ![]() Quote:
![]() The recipe looks great as well - I love the combination. Maybe that's what I am going to make tonight!!! Kelly, I got a new digital scale a coupled of weeks ago - the one with all bells and whistles. Actually, I got it right after week 1. Well, I stepped on it and didn't like what I saw. Then I was testing the new one against the old one - different numbers and 10 minutes later - new numbers!!! Really made me mad. So the new scale is behind my clothes in the closet and the old one down the hall - I can't just step on it while passing by. If I get an idea to go and weight myself, I usually can talk myself out of it as I am walking down the hall .How are you doing buddy? Quote:

[COLOR="SeaGreen"]Dancing Linda[/COLOR] – Hi and your party sounds like fun! I live in El Paso for 9 years of my life (military brat) and love the southwest. I put up my chili pepper lights every Christmas. My baby girl is doing much better. No crying last night!
![]() [COLOR="Magenta"]HI Pam! [/COLOR] Yes, my carli loves her baths! She is doing much better today. About PX90 – that man is a killer. I got his 10 minute series and I can barely make it through one of those! ![]() Pam – chances are you aren’t eating enough. I know it sounds counterproductive but that is usually the answer. ![]() [COLOR="Indigo"]Naomi[/COLOR] – be sure to post that recipe to our recipe thread sounds yummy! I make my crepes with chocolate protein power and banana extract and boy are they good! [COLOR="Blue"]Renee[/COLOR] – Hi – Thanks for the info on the holidays. Congrats on your run. I plan on doing my W6D3 run tonight. Next spring, no you will be there by Christmas! ![]() ![]() [COLOR="Red"]Sara[/COLOR] – Thanks for the warm thoughts. We are doing much better. I hope your granddaughter is doing better – that is so scary! [COLOR="DarkGreen"]Val [/COLOR]– I’m so happy for you, but remember don’t rely on that dang scale – the inches are more reliable. I weigh 147 (5’2) and I’m wearing 8s and everyone keeps telling me I don’t need to lose much more weight. ![]() Put that recipe in the recipe thread! So we all know where to go. Have you checked it out yet? There are some great recipes! [COLOR="DarkOrange"]Tam [/COLOR]– I think everyone was. She was crying, I was holding the bag in front of her face, and my 18 month old was screaming because she wanted to run around. ![]() Keep with it – I think you are doing great considering all of your holidays! If I can make it through Christmas like you made it through your holidays I will be very happy! ![]() What am I going to do with you – forget that dang scale and be happy your skirt and panties are falling down! Look at what you just said “I’ve never been so thin at such a high weight” You are a lean, mean, machine! How can you be frustrated after what you just said silly girl???? ![]() [COLOR="Cyan"]Gemini Linda [/COLOR]– HI! ![]() [COLOR="DarkSlateGray"]Carla[/COLOR] – Oh yes! Cheat Day – anything you want whenever you want. Carb Up day Starch in am, and the predominately starchy meals for the last 2 meals of the day. Yes, you are right you CAN’T mess up. If you can get out of that mentality food is no longer off limits and loses some of its appeal! I’m watching you, stay away from the scale. ![]() [COLOR="Navy"] Myshell [/COLOR]– This IS NOT a weight loss program it is a fat loss program. Don’t worry about pounds – concentrate on inches! Like our MENTOR JERRI says It is NONE of your business what you weigh! Everyone has been different. Just follow the plan and soon your pants will be falling down. Just enjoy! [COLOR="Purple"]Nina[/COLOR] – I have always said weigh at least 2 days after carb up days. I tend to weigh every Wed morning because it is an accurate reflection of my true fat loss. If you weigh on Monday chances are you are carrying that extra water weight from your Carb Up day on Sat. and you get yourself all upset for nothing. ![]() Nina – great point exercise is very important and if you are building muscle than the scale will definitely go up and down. Remember my lovely picture of muscle vs. fat I posted???? Just saw your post I would go for 4 oz of protein and see if it helps. I think that man/woman thing is crazy. It should be based on your BMI. Does anyone remember where you can find the BMI calculator? ![]() [COLOR="DarkRed"]Jupiter [/COLOR]– I didn’t follow any of the menus, just followed the rules for the particular day. Soon you will be a pro! [COLOR="Green"]KK17 [/COLOR]– Welcome! I drink my coffee on and off throughout the day. I think she doesn’t want you to substitute coffee for your snack. ![]()

welcome Kk I hope you make your goal with this plan. I can't see why you wouldn't. Kim you are a fine example of the scale surprising you with a loss. Congrats!
One of my friends was bragging last night while we made garland that he lost 15 lbs. I said great, me too! He said it only took him 2 months, I said it took me 4 weeks. Our woe rocks!!!! I've also noticed I'm not hungry or thirsty. Nothing! is that normal. my schedule to eat is 8,11,2,5,8. Water each meal 20 oz. The last couple of days and i know it's because i'm not setting my alarm i find 5 hours have gone by and i remember to eat. Yesterday my 2 meal was it. not on purpose i made meals to take to work and brought water and then totally forgot about them till I got home at midnight. Decided going to bed so too late to eat. Did not wake up hungry. Made my meal so i could reset my eating clock at 8 and then got side tracked and it was 9:30. I forced that meal down cause i wasn't hungy. I swear I have not been hungry once! I guess I've found the perfect food combos for me. going to set my alarms now just to get this day on track. Eating junk food I was constantly grazing all day long because I was hungry. Processed junk food Bad! Going to go do stuff but see you all later.

Good for you Alissa, and you never know they might except your offer. I didn't get the house I wanted but my realtor was looking out for me and steered me to a better location and I love it.
Val I popped back on to say thanks for the planner. I made copies to give to my students starting it makes it so easy with it. Ladies I would get a copy. It's perfect! Jackie get started on your cracker cook book and let us download that when your through. By then we will have met our goals but I will have lots of people joining once they see my results. Thanks again. going to fill mine out and stick it on the fridge. |

Thanks for all the food tips - Dede - I'll try those crepes your way - sounds a lot better. Mine was one big gloppy mess. I used wet oatmeal, as it didn't say dry or cooked, and I thought it would just say oats if it was dry. So i used cooked. It was so nasty'sville. And I'll check out Trader Joe's for EZ bread, or walmart even. Today was my first carb up day, and I loved. . . .. the bagel. My stomach is so happy right now!!! I am having a bunch of teenage girls over to make cookies this afternoon, and I am not even tempted to snitch!!!! One of them even said to me yesterday, 'hey! you look good!" Yipppeee for me!!!! 8 pounds down, and halfway through 2nd week. Thank you for all your help and support.

Good for you kim. Once you get rid of the cravings food just doesn't have the power over you anymore. My job, we are always going out to eat after class and everyone is always bringing me home made treats. In the old days I ate merrily along. Now I pass it around till there's nothing left for me. I'm happy!

Kelley - I'm glad you are all better. I was wondering if I needed to send out a search party since you've been MIA all morning!
Alissa - Kepp the faith, girl. The right deal will come along! Can ya'll tell it's raining here? Thus all the posts I've made this morning LOL!!! Oh, and I made the chocolate waffles yesterday. CAUTION, chocolate waffles may explode!!!! My batter was a little thin, so I thought I needed to pour extra to cover all the waffle "holes" on the waffle iron.....Um, let's just say when I closed the lid and turned my back I heard a strange rumbling noise. When I turned around, I had waffle mix EVERYWHERE!!!! What remained in the waffle maker was yummy though LOL!!! Still watching it rain.................XOXO |
