    I joined MRC last Wednesday (8 days ago). We only have a satellite center so they are only here 1 day a week. I had lost 3 pounds during preconditioning. Today was day 1 on the yellow menu. I did fine until late afternoon. I became very shaky so I drank a HNS. Ate my dinner OP but have been so nauseated! I'm not very encouraged right now! Did anyone else experience this? I am doing a lot of the supplements and am wondering if that is my problem? Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
    It's usually the iron in a supplement that makes you nauseous. After about a week your body will get used to it and settle down. It is best to eat before you take it and drink lots of water.
    Hope that helps.
  • Well, I weighed today on the last day of the yellow menu and am down 2 pounds.

You are probably still losing fat and your body composition changing. Good for you for sticking with it! A lot of people just throw their hands up and quit! I've had 3-4 "plateaus". This last one lasted almost 3 weeks! I just had to keep reminding myself that whether I was losing lbs or not, I was still doing what was best for my health and body.
    YES! not too long ago i was so frustrated in a 3 week plateau. The manager at the center offered to do a full tanita print out and it turns out i had lost 6lbs of fat but was still at the same weight (stupid water!). So, I was so annoyed about the plateau, but i had lost 6 lbs!
