Frustrated Week Two Phase Two
Good morning ladies! It's a chilly 50ish degrees here in sunny Florida. I was so sick yesterday and called in to work and school and just stayed in bed for a consecutive 25 hours...it was heaven! I have't slept like that in forever. I am feeling better today, but I am at my wit's end! I don't understand this process! I lost 8 pounds my first phase and now I come to the end of my first week on phase two and stayed the same?! I'm gonna try and up my calories and exercise this week. I guess I can't say that I didn't expect this...I haven't worked out at all this week with bein sick and all. I know I can do this...I just have to try harder I guess :(

Hi -
Don't worry about not losing this week, it will come off. I lost 1-2 lbs when I did P2 but I backed off the meat to only 2-3 days per week and I think that helped. I never did add the cheese or eggs because I wasn't missing them :) Good luck and glad you are better. It has been 0 degrees here so 50s sound pretty good :) Lem |
Dr. Ian does recommend increasing exercise in phase 2... because you are eating more calories than you were in phase 1. Good luck to you. :)

Same Problem and Frustration
I also lost 8lbs. in phase 1 but I have lost nothing in week 1 and 1/2 of phase 2. I was very upset when I weighed on Wednesday.
I was so pleased with my loss in phase 1, and that was really helping me stick to the plan. I was also really proud of myself for sticking with FS. I have not felt that deprived but there are a few things that I really miss. Now I am just angry about not losing in phase 2. I know that I am eating more calories than in phase 1, but I am still eating alot less than I was prior to FS. I have given up so many of the foods (fast food, Coca-Cola, chips, candy, bread, pasta, etc.) that I love to eat. So since Wednesday I have really slipped and strayed from the plan. I know that FS is a healthy way to eat, but I want to the weight to come off. I have begun to wonder if I am actually eating enough calories on FS. How do I know if I am eating enough? Beth |
Hi Beth,
Here is a tool to help you figure out how many calories you need a day. You can also input your food into www.fitday.com to keep up with how many calories you are eating a day. Hope it helps. :) Sherry http://www.calorie-count.com/calories/calories-goal.php |
