Take-off Question

  • Hi everyone,

    I did take off when I started witht he unlimited veggies and protein and it wasn't to bad. Then I did it after being OP with the two lites and the 6 oz of protein and two cups of veggies. I am not good at having the same protein the whole day and I just didn't feel like eating my last protein and on the second day i was hungry!!!

    After you start program do you have to do take off with the lites and only 6 oz of protien and 2 cups of veggies?

    Can I do the original one?

    Does one work better than the other?

    Also on one of the thread I read about a 3 day take-off, was that with some older plan or is that still going on now. Is three days to long?

    Lot of questions, I know, but I am entering a rut and I plan on daing take-off this weekend,so i just want to be prepared.
  • Shennie - I have been told that you can do the original unlimited protein/veg OR the one with the limted protein/veg/lites. . .I think Carmen does the unlimited. .. I haven't done it very often, but I usually do the limited, since I've gotten in the habit of starting off the day with a lite.

  • I have only been told about the unlimited. I did take-off Monday and Tuesday, so I'll see what the results are today at WI. I'm going at lunch time...wish me luck!!!
  • I've done only the unlimited, and the first time out (about 2 months into the plan) I lost 5 lbs. The 2nd time I lost about 2.
  • Just my 2 cents (not that its worth that much LOL) ...

    When I was going to the COD years ago, oh about 5 years ago, I asked about doing the "take -off" again (The unlimited protein green veggie one) and was told I couldn't do it again, that I would actually gain weight doing it at that point SO I never did it other than in the beginning ... I guess they were wrong seeing Carmen's results ... My how things change over the years
  • Thanks everyone.

    Thanks ... Its only true about half of the time
  • I went to WI today after doing take-off Mon and Tues...I lost 1.2 pounds. I would have been happier with 2, but I'll definitely take the 1.2.
