  • All your cheating or ordering from elsewhere is going to do is kill the guarentee part of it. I killed that chance early on since I don't WI twice a week...I only drive in once. They won't guarentee that I won't lose my weight, but thats alright right me.

    I was in today for my WI and lost another 2lbs. I was glad for that. It's not a huge huge loss, but i'm averaging 3.6lbs a week...and I figure I'm just settling into the plan...so the more average losses will start now. I did stop taking corti-trim/relacore and I wonder if that is playing into it. I told myself I'd stay off of it for a month and then rethink it if I noticed a big difference. So we'll see.

    I need to add weeks, my contract expires in mid-January. My center is running a special...17weeks for $99...so it looks like I'm adding 17 weeks. Yippeee! I need the time anyway. I've got a bunch to lose still.

    Hope everyone is surviving the snow...we're due for it soon. So far, just rain.

    my center runs specials where WI and get one week free, bring in a toy get one week free, etc. I try to hit all of those extra week days. I also only go in one day a week.

    Has anyone heard of Healthy Figures?
  • wow everyone is doing so well. I think i need to make a December goal. I saw a box of canned goods at the center today and wondered what that was all about. I wonder how i miss those messages. Do they tell you about these specials or do you have to ask questions constantly to figure things out? I been OP for 19 days now. I weighed in today and lost another 1.5 pounds for a total of 13. YEAH I'm very excited and have been surprised how easy it has been to stay OP. I wonder, will i lose more weight if i drink more HNS like 5 a day? Or will it be approximately the same as if i drink only 3 a day? I'm new and trying to get my posts in. Thanks everyone for the good and kind words. These posts really do help.

    Hello all! I am checking into MRC on Thursday! I've been reading alot of the posts here and it seems that it is working for lots of you. Do you have any suggestions before I sign up? And is there a thread I should be looking for as a new member to both 3FC & MRC? Thanks so much!
  • Welcome FetchLizzie....you should check this thread out... http://www.3fatchicks.com/forum/meta...-take-2-a.html ...it's our newbies thread and has a link to the first version of this page. But also, don't be afraid to just ask questions. We were all new once and will have lots of tips for you. We all had to learn, so no question is a bad one Often, even the oldies learn new stuff when someone answers a newbie Welcome!!
  • I signed the 30 pound board today! Yay!
  • Quote: I need to read my contract too. I worry when I go to WI and I "confess" that I had a cheat or 2, that they will cancel my contract or charge me more. Do you know if "cheating" is held against us?
    Cheating voids your contract. Even forgetting to eat all the required foods at a meal voids your contract. I did not eat an orange once when I was on previous menu and they said I went "off plan". Void. Trust me...they pay very close attention to what you say and your food sheet and make a note of it in your file.

    Congrats! Keep up the good work!
  • Quote: Yippee! I finally signed the 60 pound board and got a new 'rock'! This will be the last board I sign, as losing 70 pounds is not something I could maintain...even if I could get there. I'd really like to get down to and maintain 135, but we'll see how the rest of stabilization and maintenance go. Best wishes to all for a great week!
    Oh Succeed! Great job - look how much you have accomplished.

    CJay - super job!! way to go!
  • CJ, Succeed, Leigh .... way to go!! You're all awesome and great inspiration.

    Please don't get hung up on the guarantee ... If you don't follow the program, you won't lose weight their way, and if you do follow the program, you will, and that's why you're here anyway, right?! So either way, the guarantee doesn't matter. It's just a selling tool, because if you follow this low-cal, low-carb, low-fat, low-sodium plan, there is absolutely NO WAY you will not lose weight! It's a very effective program if you follow it, and not so much if you don't......don't worry.
  • Hello friends!! It was great to read all the posts! CONGRATS are needed for many - yahooo!! I FINISHED MY 20 PAGE PAPER!! Yipeeeeeee! Next class doesn't start until Jan. I WI today and lost another 1.5. I have been feeling really tired lately, I need to catch up on my sleep. COLD day in snowy Colorado today!! Best wishes for lots of lost pounds for the rest of the week!!
  • Quote: As you are enjoying your Chicken/Cranberry Apple salad, I am doing the same. I went and bought more cranberries to put in the freezer so I don't run out when the season is over. I diced up celery Sunday so I can have a supply on hand. Now I have to cook another batch of chicken and get that all diced so all I have to do is throw it all together and have lunch ready for work.

    Black leather pants....oh my...you must be hot (pun intended to work both ways, since I hear leather gets hot). We have sexy little black dresses, leopard print under garments and snuglies...now black leather pants....hmmm...sounds like soon 3FC's is going to have to change their name to 3 Sexy Chicks!!!!

    Enjoy your lunch...I am too!!! Oh, and congratulations on the 30 pound board...feels great doesn't it?
    FL - love it...3 Sexy Chicks, haha! sexy black dress, leopard undies, black leather pants = YOU GO GIRLS!! Well deserved!!
  • HAS ANYONE NOTICED ANYTHING NEW??? Yeah, I finally earned my signature ticker and private message privileges!! It's the little things that count, oh yeahh!
  • Very well put dkmd27, awesome to all of those with losses.
    We just need to push on and work toward our own personal goals.
    I was thinking of quitting for now due to all of the temptations during this Holiday time and MRC was very supportive and mentioned a maintenance menu. But with the support of you guys and the reality that we will never be perfect I think not. It's so exciting to get dressed for work in the morning and my clothes are looser. I have to reach my goal for me!! So look out 2010 we will make it!! sexyrene
