My first round in 2010 I used the allotted 1T milk and some stevia but every round since I either cheat (like I did several days last week) or I skip it entirely. I haven't had it since Tuesday and I think this is what I need to do to have a successful round. But oh how hard it is to give it up. I just keep telling myself that I hate being fat more than I hate missing coffee. I hope you all have a great weekend!

I used to feel that way about coffee. I add a pinch of sea salt and it helps with bitterness. I was doing IF (intermittent fasting) with clean fasts. Believe it or not now I don’t like it with cream. I don’t drink much coffee each day but I don enjoy the first cup. A little cinnamon can help too. (I got away from that with the clean fast thing). Lol!

Hi girls - just checking in! I have decided with my pathetic first week and struggles with staying on plan, as well as not having a start weight since I drank water before I could get to the scale my first day, that I am going to scrap my original date and make Wednesday my VLCD1 since it was when I finally got on board with protocol and the scales started working for me.

SO, VLCD 1 -1.6, VLCD 2 -1.8, VLCD 3 -1.7

I'm so glad my body is responding to the protocol after I messed up. I'm doing great. I didn't miss coffee today, I didn't feel deprived while at a social event last night with all the yummy food, and I didn't feel tempted when grocery shopping today and walking down all those goody-filled aisles. I feel like my head is in the game. I know this good head space might not last and the losses will definitely slow down, but I am very hopeful I can stay on track and keep myself together. I have a very busy day tomorrow (weekends are so busy for me), so I might not be around until Monday.

I hope you are all having a great weekend!

Good morning everyone! I made it through the weekend and am glad it is over. I had perfect days but didn't get all my food in either day. I need to make food ahead of time for weekends since they are usually busy and I'm sometimes only able to get what's already made up. Sunday morning I was down 1.1 and today was 0. I don't know if not enough calories is working against me, if it's just a normal no-loss day, or if it's that TOM is supposed to visit sometime this week. Whatever it is, I'm not discouraged. I know I'm doing my part and this diet always works if you stick to it. I'm finding my energy is down a lot this morning so I need to get in all my food today. Good luck to everyone!

Hi lovelies,

Plugging away here. Dreaming of P3. Wishing my life away. All in all it’s been a decent round for sticking with it. The losses are super slow though. Maybe to be expected now that I hit menopause. Hoping to end up in the higher 140’s. Do my P3/P4 and then do another round and then I should be at a weight I like and can stay at.

Hope you are all are doing well.

Hi girls! It feels like we are all in the part of the diet where we slog through until the end. Glad we can read about each other because it sure is encouraging not being alone. Today I am down .9 which was nice to see considering TOM is coming. I needed the encouragement, but I know I still have some stall days ahead. Happy Tuesday to you all!

Slog through to the end is too true. I am really trying to treat this is a “cleanse/reset” time. I am also using this time to create some new habits. It’s a mental game more than just the limited food! Lol!
