jessicai hope in no way my post talking about me "flying off the deep end" would encourage you to not follow "protocol".[QUOTE]
No, I was just curious, about it because I thought I'd read Novak talk about skipping phase 2 before, and now I realize it was if you do a short stint after you have a trained pancreas and been through the process once. Phase one is just so easy for me now. Makes sense. I'm actually good with 2, I was going to take 2 eggs to lunch!

Clicking on the link will open a dialog box, asking you where you want to save the spreadsheet. Here's the link:

I will post in the alternatives thread as well.
Um, all I have to say is WOW smarty pants! Nice work.

The last few days however have been great, waking up early with lots of energy. Wish I had found the program years ago. Been following the forum since last week and this looks like a great place to be.

It IS a great place to be, it will really help you with the support you need for your journey.

I have to lose 90 lbs so I hope I don't get sick of it before I get there. Has anyone here lost a large amount of weight. Any words of encouragement or advice/tips?

Honestly, I'm sure a couple others have said it by now, its either not enough salt or not enough water. Most people say put salt in water and drink it -- tonight I had a headace, put salt on a hard boiled egg and ate it. Delish, and the headache went away VERY quickly. You could be dehrydrated too, but normally it's the salt. Magic!

Inches lost is high too! Very excited! So excited I went and bought myself a smaller shirt... mama needs to look pretty
This program is awesome! Congrat to everyone's sucesses!
Congrats! Happy to hear you're doing so well.
For the group, couple of thougths of my own. I have houseguests right now (I wish LadyShady was here because they are French Canadian!) anyway, the diet is going great with them here, even. I just told them the deal up front, and they've been very supportive....others, not so much.
At a family event on Saturday, my 'inside' voice said Hey, If I'd wanted your opinion, I'd ask for it. I don't care, I don't want to hear what you have to say about it, what your thoughts are, or what I 'oughttta' do. Worry about your own plate and what you're eating, and but out of mine. My actual voice said un-huh and walked away.
It's getting to be a little, this is going to sound strange, but amost embarassing now with all the changes and people noticing how much I've lost. There is no way to avoid it now, even if I have old clothes on.
I really don't 'feel' the weight loss this week, maybe because of TOM and it being hot so I'm retaining all the water I drink. Had to move my WI because It was interfereing with the guy coming to fix the AIR CONDITIONER....
