fatbgone, yes I did start and I am loving it. I am doing the longdistance program. I live in Maryland. I thought it would be difficult to do but I love it. I tried to reply directly to your email but since I don't post much I have not accumulated the 10 posts to be able to do so. Our goals are pretty much the same so I wanted to get in touch with you. Anyway, as of yesterday I lost 4 pounds. I am on my second milk day.

YOU GO GIRL!!!

I was wondering how everyone is doing on their diet? I started mine today. Dr. Schwartz is a real gem. I know someone who lost over 100+ in less than 8 months on this program, so I decided to give it a try.

She has kept it off with the their maintenance program. This diet has a individualized transition program, you work one-on-one with your counselor and slowly introduce things back in to your life. Their is support every step of the way with your counselor, and a great email group where members in each stage of the diet exchange recipes, stories, etc. Auriculo staple? With AW you are not resetting you metabolism. If you listen to the orientation it will answer a lot of your question. They have Q&A sessions available too. I have to say it is a great program, I am down 30lbs and I have been on it about 1 month and 1 week.

Just adding life back to this thread.. Wonder how everyone is doing? Sorry I have not updated, but let's just say that with the semester and all that, I was not up to doing the diet seriously. My weight went up quite high after eating a lot of junk and staying up really late and all that (didn't transition)~ Up to 182!
I started the program again last Monday and am down to 169! Granted, you lose quite a bit the first week, but I'm very excited~ It is as simple as NOT cheating and following the simple guidelines! I think another reason I'm having an easier time sticking to it this time around other than the weather getting warmer, is that I'm taking my vitamins (cravings are virtually gone!). Not feeling hungry at all, just drinking water and following the rules of the program. I love milk days though, very simple and easy, I also seem to lose the most right after!! I did two Callanetics session this week as well, and didn't feel hungry or anything, I actually am feeling really good!
Hope everyone is doing well, good luck!

Hi all, I just ordered the starter kit. I live in St. Louis, so we shall see how the long distance program works. I'm looking to lose about 20 lbs. I will keep everyone posted

I'm about to start as well. Where can I find the google group?

Melanie

I joined the google group about two years ago when my best friend told me about the diet. I really don't remember how I became apart of the group b/c it's been awhile since I been apart of it, but I never actually did the diet. I think you have to write your accu bead diet counselor and have them send you an invite. I believe that's the only way you can become apart of it through an invitation. Sorry I couldn't be more help.

You're fine Thanks for the response.

Hey all.. This sounds like a really good program. Where do i get the web site? Searching it on google is hopeless

Thank You Melanie. SO i am in Canada and i messaged them today however i havent heard anything back. I listened to the orientation it just didnt say anything. SO other than appetite suppressant could you just do the diet without the beads and still lose that much? Also how much does it cost?

I live in NJ and about 5 people I work with are doing the bead diet. The are all having wonderful results. One girls has lost like 60lbs in about 5 months she looks fanastic. One girls lost 70 and is on maintenance now.

I keep thinking about doing it, but keep changing my mind. I am not sure how with a family I would be able to do this and not cheat. Everyone at my job is single who is doing the plan, not that that should matter. I just think it makes it easier when no kids are involved. Breakfast and lunch wouldn't be a problem but dinner would. At leaset that's my excuse.

Hey All,
So I just called these people and emailed them and i really want to start this plan. HOwever i am in Canada and they havent gotten back to me. How do i start this?
