Take it with a grain of salt. It just seemed interesting to me when I ran across it. I might give it a shot to see how well it works. It seems to me that it would be a lot of Water weight lost, but they say you can repeat it the next week and get the same results, and can continue to do the diet over and over till you are satisfied. We'll see.

Hey Kathy - that seriously may explain your low blood sugar slump!! I'm going to assume that THIS is the reason for the juice - so we don't feel like we're going to pass out!

Hmmm......Funny, what are you drinking? Did you ever feel the feelings that Kathy did?!?

I bought my stuff today and I am starting tomorrow, I have talked my sister and mom in doing with me so we are all doing it together. we went shopping today together and we decided to go to TCBY tonight to kick off the week.. lol (maybe it will keep us from cheating LOL) ok I can't wait to see how much you've lost FUNNY. every body keep up the good work....

I am just drinking Water and black coffee. I don't know why you had the blood sugar dip. Maybe it is a telling sign that you have some hidden carbs somewhere in your diet and the slump was a signal of your body being dependant on it.

I try not to do fruit juice, because for me the sugar in it triggers a craving for sugar. But from what I can tell, if it is 100% juice then go for it. I just stick to black coffee and water, and I have even gotten rid of all artificial sweetners. Trying to keep everything fresh. LOL I am getting a little ocd'ish about this all LOL

The Soup is so tasty, and it is a negative calorie receipe. For those who don't understand that, it means that it takes more calories to burn this soup in digestion than you are taking in by eating it. The more you eat, the more you lose simply because you are filling up on a food that is basically nothing. BUT it is full of water and nutrients from the vegetables. Its a fabulous concept! LOL Food that makes you lose weight. Didn't we all see these on the front cover of the tabloids in the checkout line? LOL But it seems to be working, and I am happier than a pig in slop.

I hope everyone is doing well. I will let y'all know what my weight is tomorrow. Are you as excited as me?

Maybe it is a telling sign that you have some hidden carbs somewhere in your diet and the slump was a signal of your body being dependant on it.

Yup, that's it. I agree with that 100%. 'Cept my carbs aren't hidden, they are all over the place! It's just worse than I thought...oy vey. No wonder I can't get below 180. Too many carbs! And my body sure did tell me so, didn't it! It was so odd, I just got the shakes and felt like I needed to eat! Next time, if it does that, I'll be sure to have some fruit juice ready. Thanks girls!

Kathy this might have been a very good thing for you! It opened your eyes to something that might be what has been stalling you. I think before you go on the diet you should try to ween yourself down on the carbs. That way you don't have such a dramatic craving. I would be so scared that it could hurt you!! (((HUGS)))

Ok...so my official weigh in this morning and I am down to 320. Total loss this week is 13 pounds.

Amy, I got out my food Mover to use for the next few days...I'm bustin' the carbs for sure!

13 pounds!!!!!!!!! Wahoooooo!!!! You go girl!!!

I made my pot of soup last night! It is pretty darn good. I am starting today, hopefully I can drop more than ONE measely pound this week. I am glad to know I can have my morning coffee, lol.

OMG Amy, It just registered! 13 lbs in ONE WEEK! You are kicking butt girl, you will be at your surgery goal weight in NO TIME!

I have 2 questions.

1. I usually have a ZeroCarb Isopure shake for Breakfast. Should I skip this?

2. Bananas are one of the few foods that dont work well for me. Any suggestions for what to do on that day? Could I just make it another veggie day?

My sister can't eat banannas either so she ought three jars of babyfood. I am so excited.. 13 lbs is AWSOME!!! good job funny.. so are you going to do it again next week?

I started yesterday. Aside from being hungry around 8 PM I did great. I don't think I was actually hungry I think my head was thinking I should be eating more. The soup is really good. I think it will be perfect for the days following a fill.

The soup is really awesome! and yes!! I will be doing this till it gets old, or I get old. Which ever comes last. LOL

I asked about the bananas with my nutritionist. She said I could just do milk that day, and try to find some other potassium rich foods to try. Either that or take some supplements.

As for the Isopure, I actually stopped drinking mine while on this diet. Just because i wanted to follow it to a T. But it is up to you. I think customization is important to make you stick with it!!

Good luck everyone!! I hope you all enjoy this! I can't beleive how many people are starting this diet! LOL

Funny - YOU ROCK!! 13 lbs. is fabulous!!

I will be shopping to try this on Friday. My Mom is also going to try this diet (shes not banded)

WAY TO GO AMY!!!! I so want to do this diet! Once we are settled into our new place and know we wont be traveling for a week I am going to start it. I hope by next Monday.

13 pounds, thats amazing!

ok just finished day 3 and starting day 4 bananas MMMM:hungry:

and i tell you what...this soup gets better the longer it sits! i made a huge pot monday and yesterday morning i added more vegis and Water and OMG last night it was sooo yummy! the carrots have soaked up the broth and it tastes like stew!!! i keep thinking ill bite into a chunk of beef any minute lol!
