HI - I just joined this group a few days ago. I have been doing LAWL for about 10 weeks and have lost 19 lbs

I don't buy the bars, either.
When I started, and they thought I would buy the bars, they had me on gold. But once I told them I wasn't purchasing them, they moved me up to purple.
So what I do is continue to follow gold, but eat Pria, South Beach, or Luna bars. It's working.
Congrats on your loss!
