That changing up lunch and supper isn't a big deal...
That drinking your water is a minimum.... that 100 oz is a better bet
That you will have ups and downs, and charting your weight loss, in relation to your monthly cycle and sleep patterns will help you be prepared for those weigh in days when things aren't moving. That what you average is as important as those "big weeks", and you probably won't see big weeks every week.
Be prepared.... Buy an extra shaker and stash a couple of packets, bars, snacks with you in your purse, car, work, etc.... Keep a small pill box with an extra set of vitamins. I ordered a few WF single packet dressings for emergency use at restuarants who don't offer great dressing choices.
It is totally possible to eat out... but plan ahead. Most places offer menu's online. Be difficult
if it means you stay on program. Get them to take everything off your salad that isn't on the plan.
Plan plan plan your meals. I portion out everything at the beginning of the week and again mid week, so I am never unprepared.
Invest in a scale and 2 cup tupperware containers.
Look up recipes, find variety so you don't get bored. There are a ton of recipes on here to keep you motivated.
This diet DOES WORK.... but it is a non cheat diet. The more you stray and the more you cheat and not be OP the longer it will take for the weight to come off.
I also have found that taking Melatonin and the Omega's have really helped by personal weight loss quest.
