My hubby and I both did much better on the colored plans than the numbered ones. As soon as our center put us on the numbered plans, we stopped losing altogether. They kept saying "but look at all the starches you get now...!" Well having a lot of starches was part of what got us overweight to begin with.....the numbered plans just weren't a good fit for us at all. Which isn't to say they don't work for some....I'm sure some people do fine on them.....but not us.

I started on the coloured plan, then I was switched to the numbered plan. I found that with the extra carbs I was either putting on weight or holding my own. I lost 100lbs total and, unfortunately, as I'm going through a very nasty divorce I have put on 40. Now I've re-started, done TO1 (with my last bottle of TO - centre is closed) and am following my coloured plan. I have talked to so many people who didn't find the switch worked for them.

Glad to be back

I would love to get a copy of that as well. I have been "stuck" for a month now. I have not been getting all of my portions in though these last couple of weeks -- just not hungry and to be honest a little down!! Gets kind of depressing to see the same number on that scale every morning!! I am currently on the purple plan -- I had just gotten back on LA when the center closed and was switched to the number plan (2). Didn't work for me -- just pretty much maintained so I went back on the purple plan myself. I also lift weights 3 x week, cardio 3-4 days a week and yoga/pilates 2 x week. So, starting today I'm going to be POP and get all my portions in. Next week I'll try TO too and hopefully that will kick me into gear! Any suggestions are certainly welcome!!

I feel your pain Angela!! I lost about 50 pounds and then went into a nasty divorce and ended up gaining a bunch back (around 30) ugh... I have managed to lose about 15. I'm currently stuck at 175 and my goal is 145. As I mentioned in a previous post the number plans did not seems to work for me as well. Good luck and I'm glad that you have restarted the plan with us!
