[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am in week 10 and I have lost 28 pounds. I did a lot of reading online to make sure that I was maximizing the effectiveness. 1. I bite it and write it every day - track every calorie and I have a target (1400 cal) that I am staying under. Of the 70 or so days, I have been under this target all but one time, and I was over by 150 cals on that one day. 2. Coffee cuts the effectiveness. I switched to decaf and haven't had any caffeine at all during this period 3. Lots of water as someone mentioned. 4. If hungry, eat a little snack, like 100 calories and then jam down two big glasses of water. 5. Alcohol also cuts the effectiveness. I am not a huge drinker but I have trimmed way back except for the odd social events. Alcohol calories count, too - be sure to count those. If you want it to be effective, you have to work at it - you can't just change habits and expect the pill to work. I look at the pill curbing hunger as a gift and I am trying to appreciate and use it while changing my habits. I will likely talk my doctor into a fourth month, but I know that if I go in for the weigh in and BP check this month and I don't have weight loss to show for it, she will say it is losing its effectiveness so I am digging in deeper, exercising 4-5 times a week to get that number as low as possible. I am hoping to trim off 45 pounds or more in four months. When I started, I thought that 30 pounds would be great, but I will soon be well beyond that so I am trying to get down another 10-15 to hit my true goal weight that I thought was out of reach. [/quote] Interesting. Dr. Anchors says no exercising. [/quote] Np here. i need exercise to deal with my anxiety... any exceptions? [/quote]
