I went in for my first weigh in and menu yesterday.  Although I did not have any weight lost for the 3 days that I was on preconditioning, I did not experience any weight gain either.  During preconditioning I cut out caffeine and started taking the MRC6.  I was feeling tired and getting headaches, but I was told that this was due to having decreasing the amount of carbs and caffeine that I am used to.  I was given my first menu, which is the yellow menu, and was told that I would need to follow the menu for the next 4 days.  I have to admit that the food selection or lack thereof, was quite surprising to me.  I am to have 1 oz of cheese, 1 slice of diet bread and ½ a small orange for breakfast, 8 oz of salad and ½ cup of cottage cheese for lunch, and for dinner 4 oz of lean meat, 4 oz of salad, 4 oz of cooked vegetables, and a slice of diet bread.  With breakfast and lunch I am also required to have a high nutrient supplement, of which they have many varieties in concentrate or powder form.  I am required to have 2 HNS a day but can have up to 4 if I feel hungry or feel like my weight loss is stalling.  They say the HNS contain a lot of protein with a small amount of calorie content, which boosts metabolism and will provide food for my muscles.  They also have fiber fillers which are powder form drinks that will give you the feeling of being full to help tide you over until your next meal. I decided to do the 10 boxes for $90, 3 boxes of fiber filler and 7 boxes of HNS.  .  There are 7 packets in each box so those 7 boxes should last over 2 weeks if I take 3 per day.  I bought the 3 boxes of fiber fillers because I know I will get hungry or be hungry after my meager meals, compared to what I am used to eating, so hopefully the fiber will make sure that I stay on track.  I know the $90 sounds like a lot, but when I think of spending $20 a day on eating out I know I am actually saving money by doing this program, and will hopefully lose weight to boot.  Due to the fact that I was feeling hungry during preconditioning I also decided to try the All Day Weight Loss supplements.  They are 4 bottles of supplements that are different formulas before breakfast, lunch, dinner, and bedtime, to help with hunger, weight loss, and sleep.   The ADWL cost $75 for a 1 month supply.  After this first month I am hoping the hunger and cravings will decrease and I will find I do not need the ADWL.  I have been one the yellow menu for over a day now and although I am not used to eating so little I am sleeping better and feeling better.  I don’t notice any weight loss but I am hoping that will change by the time I go in on Monday.  When I go in on Monday I will weigh in again and receive another menu, the blue menu, for days 5-10.  I hear that the blue menu will have a few more food options than the yellow menu has.  Fingers Crossed X!
