Weighed in this morning and I was down 2 pounds! That's 11 total! I am so glad I found this board. Going back and reading past posts has been really helpful!

Let's see if I can remember. One is a metabolism booster, the other is a fat flusher, the third focuses on the adrenal glands, keeps them from producing too much cortisol. I didn't choose that one because I don't know if my adrenal glands are producing too much cortisol and I don't see why I should take that one w/out first getting confirmation from my Dr. that it's a good idea. The other two I didn't see any harm in so I went ahead and bought them. One is called MRC-6 (I think), the other is Cortisol (again, I think) and the last one...I'm not sure what it's called.

Phentratrim, MRC-6, & Corti-Trim. They are proprietary to MRC. I haven't found anything comparable online, although others may have.

I'm on the big three. I take Corti-Trim, MRC-6 and the All Day Weight Loss. I think it's helped alot. Even when I went off the diet a little I still took them and lost weight.

Great Job, Pam!

Patsi,
Good job maintaining! I think that probably the toughest thing to do!

I'm in my third week. I losts 6lbs the first week, 1.5 the second and this week isn't looking to be a strong loss week either.

I can't say for you if it's mostly water, but I'm sure a lot of it is. What happens after that first week seems to vary greatly, so I'll hope for you more success than I'm currently experiencing!

Hi guys, I have resigned back with MRC. I was last on it in April, but I completely flopped and fell off the wagon and gained a bit back. I am moving at the end of the month for grad school, so once I am gone, I will be doing MRC at home since there is not a center in the town I will be moving to. I have a whole year to lose the weight I guess because it is the at home program. I plan to post and be active on this forum because I will need all the support I can get. Reading all of your posts definitely keeps me motivated.

I'm so excited this morning. Although I fell off the band wagon over the weekend, I refocused and have been eating OP since Monday morning. I weighed this morning and lost the 1.4 lbs I gained over the weekend. I went to water aerobics last night which was so much fun!! I am going to do Zumba tonight to see how I feel. I really miss the class. My official WI is tomorrow morning, so hopefully the scale will move a little more.

Welcome Back PianoGirl! What an exciting time for you! Please do stick around as I have gained sooooo much support and advice from these lovely ladies and have been successful because of them.

Nvogue- Way to go for getting back OP! That is the most important thing, just auto correcting when you get off track. Is the Water Aerobics fun? I want something to switch things up especially in this summer heat!

Things are going really well for me! I am >>>This Close<<< to signing the 30 pound board! Only .4 pounds to go. Soo excited! My parents and future BIL are coming on Saturday from AZ and the last time they saw me I was at my heaviest. OH! Speaking of future BIL- I got engaged!!!
I'm so happy right now I could do a happy dance. It feels like there has been a huge energy shift and I am just feeling...happy! This is even more motivation for me to do well on this program.


Happy losing everyone~
