Hi I would love to join with you guys and I could use all the support I can get, but don't have the menus, will you help me as well?

I have been on this diet twice and like so many others can't afford to go back, can someone please send me the menus so I can try on my own, I also need the pre-conditioning on . I am new and can't IM so please email to me.

Welcome! Go to dietdirect.com & shop. The liquid protien is the drinks from MRC, the bars ate barwise & protidiet. Most things you order should have little sodium, 12-15 grams of protien & not much of anything else!!! My diet menu was designed for me by a company that was bought out by MRC so I dont think mine mirrors everyone elses. Basically I did almost an Atkins diet for the 1st week to reset my body, then only 2 breads (1/2 sandwich thin or 1/2 flatout wrap) a day. 3 food proteins a day like egg, meat, etc (4 oz) & no white anything, no pasta, no bread, no rice, etc (not even wheat, except what I mentioned as allowable above). 1 serving of fruit at lunch, veggies at every meal (breakfast not mandatory but helpful...broccoli in your eggs maybe?) at least 3 MRC products a day (like 3 drinks, 2 drinks & a bar or pudding). Never a bar & pudding in the same day. Be smart, think first, pay attention to portions, nutritional facts. I also walk hard on the treadmill for 1/2hr at least 4x's a week. I have lost 15lbs & 3 sizes since Jan 2010. Good luck hope I helped & didnt confuse. Other chatters may have different diet details as I said but this has certainly worked for me with the MRC staff & products.

Thanks for the information I will go to dietdirect.com and see how much I could save.

sorry it was the chicken broth I got from them. I wish I could remember which one it was. I will have to look at the package when I get home. It tasted good though. I got it from Diet Direct. The soup I get from MrC disolves pretty well.

Cheers!

Hi would you please send me copies of the sheets on email or contact me and I can give you my address, I went out this several yrs ago and want to get back on it but it is too expensive for me. My address is 7412 Gainsborough, amarillo, TX 79121 I don't have PM that I know of, thanks for your help, I really need the preconditioning on too if you have it. Thanks again.

I am thrilled...I lost 5lbs this week! Feeling back in control and doing this on my own with dietdirect....now if I can only stick with one BARIWISE protein bar a day I will be good....my gosh they are like eating a candy bar!

What you should do is go back to the yellow menu 4 days. If you dont have protein supplements increase your protein at breakfast by adding an boiled egg. And increase your meat to six ounces at dinner. You should lose four pounds in this. Go back to day eleven (green menu) and stay on it until you reach a plateau again. The supplements are nothing but protein, and the way they make money. There not magic and the increased protein through food will do the same. Metabolic will not give you this info

AWESOME! Congratulations. (I feel your pain about only having one bar -- they are delicious!)

I would love to get the menus. I tried this diet a few years ago and it worked great. My mom and I tried it at the same time and we both had success. She had a slightly different menu than I did (I think she had to eat more oz of protein at each meal). I am really new to this website, I just signed up today. It seems more supportive than the centers. Hope that is a good sign.

Congratulations on the loss! You are doing really good.. Keep up the good work..

Ronnie

GWE- do you have a few favorite bars...I looked at the site and would love some recommendations...comparable to MRC's?.....thanks

Ronnie thank you for the encouragement...I need it always

Keiko, I purchase BariWise variety pack as not to get bored but my favorite bars are caramel crunch, double peanut butter, rocky road (#1 for me), these three satisfy my "candy bar" fix. ...However, they are all good and SO MUCH better than the Proti, many times the nuts in the Proti bars tasted rancid. I haven't tried the other protein bars on dietdirect but have tried them all in the stores, Luna, Atkins, etc...and I have to say BariWise is doing something right...absolutely no after taste like some bars have. I have to keep my kids out of them...I buy the "snickers" protein bars for my kids at Sams Club to keep them out of mine!

The caramel brownie, strawberry cheesecake are like a small desserts. I guess it all depends on your personal preferences. I would recommend you order the variety pack and have a taste of them all and then you will know which flavors you like best...I even liked the oatmeal which I thought I wouldn't...

The Wonderslim Crispy Meal Replacement Bars are the same ones the center sells .... my faves are the cinnamon and peanut ones.
