Well, I'm delighted to report that I had good results last week, 3 lbs!!!

and that's on the Dr.'s scale -- and after breakfast and a ton of coffee, too!
Now whether it was the 2-day thing that sparked it or just my previous 6 virtuous weeks finally paying off I have no idea; but I'm going to keep up the 2 day thing for 4 consecutive weeks and see.
I've been losing a half pound a week, so it took me SIX weeks to lose 3 lbs prior to this week!!
"Starvation mode" in two days?? That's hard to believe. We'll see how it goes, if I go into "starvation mode"

I doubt even a total fast for 2 days would do THAT!
This lady who told you this -- forgive me for being cynical but does she get any more $$/commission if you lose the weight slower? I used to think that at Weight Watchers, easy for them to say "hang in there," the longer it takes me the more money they make!
Because on their deal, once you maintain your goal weight for X weeks, you don't pay the $13 a week anymore. That's the tip for WW peeps....PICK THE HIGHEST GOAL WEIGHT IN YOUR RANGE! The last pounds come off so slow anyhow, it'll save you a lot of money!

Counsellor read the article and said she wasn't sure why they were suggesting every week, that it would put body into starvation mode. I think that is a crock personally!! 2 days a week is not going to put body into starvation mode.
She was also surprised they ran the article again. I guess it has ran before and they were basically recycling it.
