I found this info a few pages into the forum...does anyone want to do this Summer Meltdown? My only question is I notice its is for the RED plan, what do you think would be different on the gold plan?

This is the 5 week Summer Meltdown that my COD is doing. I noticed the one she gave me says for Red. I am assuming that if you are on something else you would alter it accordingly. days 3 thru 6 on the TakeOff weeks have all the exchanges that the red plan has in a day but incorporates the jetstart and the slimdown.



Summer Meltdown – RED

Lose up to 2 sizes and up to 20 lbs. by summer

Week One
Day 1 and 2 (see TakeOff instructions for Protien and Veggies)
• Breakfast 8 oz. Take off Juice and ½ LA Lite Bar
• Mid Morning 8 oz. Take off Juice and ½ LA Lite Bar
• Lunch 3 oz. Protein and unlimited Veggies
• Mid Afternoon 8 oz. Take off Juice and ½ LA Lite Bar
• Dinner 3 oz. Protein and unlimited Veggies
• Evening 8 oz. Take off Juice and ½ LA Lite Bar


Day 3 thru 6
• Breakfast Jetstart – ½ Protein – 1 Starch
• Mid Morning LA Lite Bar and Fruit
• Lunch SlimDown and 2 Vegetables
• Mid Afternoon LA Lite Bar and Fruit
• Dinner 1 Protein, 2 Vegetables, 1 Starch, 1 Fat


Day 7
Follow Regular Plan


Week Two Follow Regular Plan
Week Three Repeat TakeOff Week
Week Four Follow Regular Plan
Week Five Repeat TakeOff Week

On Gold,
Take-off for Days 1 & 2 would be the same.
For Days 3 thru 6, you would remove 1/2 Protein, 1V, and 1S...so maybe:
Breakfast - Jetstart, 1S
Mid Morning - LA Lite and 1F
Lunch - Slimdown and 2V
Mid Afternoon - Lite, 1F
Dinner - 1P, 1V, 1Fat

Then your regular plan for Day 7.

I think that I'm going to do this 5 week summer meltdown...but I'll be starting it after I get back from Orlando. So probably on June 3rd or 4th.

I started the 5 week meltdown this week and am on day 4 of week one. It's been tough at night (I don't do well with liquid meals usually) but I've been sticking with it and so far, so good. :) I'm in for the challenge, as hopefully it will keep me committed to the meltdown plan. A goal...umm....I'll shoot for 12 pounds. :)

I did have another question...I wont be using the drinks you get from the centers so what can I use for the JetStart? I was planning in using SlimFast Optima to replace their SlimDowns...what should I use for the JetStart? And does it matter if you have the protein for lunch and the SlimFast for dinner??
I keep saying we can do this...its only 5 weeks! Just think about how HOTT we will all be when we are done! LOL

Hi, I'm new here, but I think it would be cool to join the challenge. I feel like people around me are trying to sabotage my dieting efforts. They are always asking me to get dessert, or if I eat dinner at my mom's house, she puts all of these additives in the meal, before I get there.

hdsqrl 05-24-2007 10:59 AM

twheelz: I had the SlimDown for dinner last night because we had a work lunch planned during the day. Seemed to go okay, though I was starving by bedtime, hah. I think if most of the time, you follow the rules, that the occasional switcharound shouldn't make much of a difference.

cpease: Please, yes, join us! We won't pressure you to eat dessert (well, okay, watch out for the CAKE, heh)!

I think I will be substituting a fruit and a yogurt smoothie for the jetstart. one fruit, 1/2 cup yogurt, 1/2 cup milk. after discussing my bathroom issues with the COD we decided I need that yogurt. so to make it a drink that is what I will do. cheaper too!!

myboysnme2 05-24-2007 11:20 AM

I'm new here, can I play too?? I'd love to be down 15 lbs by July 4th...

saranacbnl 05-24-2007 11:30 AM

Please count me in too. I really really need this motivation.... 10 lbs for me.

Thanks,

Peggy

I had this problem too... My mom, who was always bugging me about my weight, would still make meals with all the "bad" stuff in them..

I finally had to sit her down and ask her to please keep in mind that if she wants our family to get together for meals, some concessions to the diet need to be made.. I gave her a list of good and bad things and so now, even though she still puts out bread, potatoes and dessert after the meal, at least she keeps in mind the things Liz and I can't have that she would normally encorporate into the preparation, like salt...

Of course, now the downside is that she makes a big deal of pointing out that she "prepared it that way JUST FOR YOU"... *sigh*.. Can't win for losing, I guess...
