Thanks!

I just got back from my 3rd weigh in.

I lost 4.2 lb this week. My total for 3 weeks is 21.6 lb and I have 21.2 lb fat off! So I am not going to change a thing this week and keep on being a loser!

[QUOTE=Doobz;11766292]I have been on the diet for a month now and as happy as I am to have lost the weight I have lost the past 2 weeks have been very slow

Last week I lost .5 lbs and this week I lost close to 1 lb. I do not expect to lose 3lbs a week, seeing as I only have about 10 more lbs to lose, but I thought I would be able to drop closer to 2lbs a week (seeing as this program is VERY strict and limits everything).

I am not sure what I am doing wrong. I write down everything I eat and have been following the diet. I get in all my calories and MORE than enough water. I go to the gym and teach dance during the week, so I stay active. I am not too sure what to do. Has anyone else had this type of problem? Is there something I can do to start dropping a little bit more?[/QUO.

Try increasing your protein grams. High protein is the ONLY thing that causes me to lose over one pound per week! I've lost 15 pounds in 8 weeks and have not cheated. I keep my carbs very low and drink all my water and then some. If you are like me slow weight loss is not acceptable on such a restricted diet. I'll keep at it till I find the combo that works best for me.

I cannot find the College Inn brand here in PHX AZ either, it may be an "East Coast thing". Swanson does make a "Natural Goodness Chicken Broth" that has lower sodium that the regular broth and the following is the nutritional info:

Amount Per Serving (serving size) = 1 cup
Calories 15
Total Fat 0g
Sat. Fat 0g
Cholesterol 0mg
Sodium 570mg
Total Carbs. 1g
Dietary Fiber 0g
Sugars 1g
Protein 3g

%Daily Values **
Vitamin A 0%
Vitamin C 0%
Calicum 0%
Iron 2%

You may be able to find this in the Dallas area.

Thanks Jo, I'll look for the Swanson broth. Somebody previously had said, drink it when you are hungry, but it still has 15 cal, so we add them to everything else right?...wish they didn't count...

[Jeffery's girl]

Thanks Jo, You are so right!

Thanks for the suggestion

I made those turnip fries,even my hubby liked them and he's fussy

The only thing is...I think they put me out of ketosis for a few hours!
I checked myself when I got home from work and yayyyy back in moderate ketosis!
I'm going to save those fries for special days

Keep on losing all

This was a huge week for me. I lost 3.3 lbs making my total weightloss to date 30.3 pounds. This also put me under 180 pounds. I am amazed at how well Medi has worked for me.

Feel better soon!

Hi everyone! I had my last weigh in on Friday. I lost another lb and lost another percent of my body mass... Seems to be slowing down considerably, but I have been told that being less than 20lbs from goal will do that... Has anyone else had this happen?

[Fuelin'MyDreams]

Lost 2.8lbs, all fat. Whoo hoo!
Total for March: 8lbs (for McChestnut's tally)
Total lost in 7 weeks: 18lbs... should be 21lbs, but I have gained 3lbs of water over the past 3 weeks. Not sure why since I drink water like a champ.

Congrats to everyone else for the month of March!

April will be great... as long as we can stay away from the Easter candy.

McBoo, I hope you recover quickly. I haven't checked the forums here in a few days so I just saw this.

I haven't posted in the last month or so myself because I had a set back in plan do to injury. In early February I started noticing alot of pain in my groin after my daily 4 mile runs. February 27th I went to the doctor and was diagnosed with an inguinal hernia and told not to do any lifting or running until I saw a surgeon. The surgeon recommended laproscopic surgery to repair the hernia and I had this done on March 20th. I have made a speedy recovery from the surgery though and started running again yesterday.

Anyways, now that I can work out again I am back on plan and will be making an appointment with the Medi clinic for next week. I weighed myself this morning and at 195 I am only 3lbs up from my lowest of 192 from my last Medi clinic visit/weigh-in on February 27th.

It's tough taking time off from working out when you have been doing it for months.
