MemberDay three and I have so many questions like what if you can’t eat all the food. I have not alot of time at work and I find I don’t want the night snack. Also want to know if you add spices to the plain noodles to make them more interesting is it wrong.

BlockedSpices are good and as long as you’re not hungry, I think it’s OK to skip a snack.

MemberHello again! I am still feeling a newbe in the middle of week 5 (of the 8 week plan )so a quick progress report here… During the weeks 1,2,and 3 menus I managed to loose a few pounds, with some substitutes within the menu`s– like for like as best I could; got going on the eating 6 times but sometimes it has to be 5 as I cannot eat late evenings with acid reflux around .Though the first three weeks were not too bad and overall I enjoyed the programme, and it felt like I was getting into it well enough and quite ready to progress when I hit the problem of 1st:- just logging in- -the computer told me either my name was wrong or my password!! I had been using same one over first three weeks.. and when I finally got in after loads of new password tries I couldn`t get the program page up at all–just kept getting the home page or lots of stuff I had never seen before!!Eventually, after firing off a few very frantic e mails & contacts, somehow I have managed- without knowing exactly how, to get the correct prog. page back up on screen, and it feels great to be back with it again after such a troublesome spell. But I have gone off the rails a bit- I have eaten mostly any time and anything really (did stick to portion sizes) and didn’t have time or inclination for activity – never mind the proper exercise!! So confession over, I am now ready to get back on track; try to get my already shaky confidence at the computer back (only a beginner at nearing 70) and I have been so very nearly at giving up stage!! Has anyone else been through similar to this and gone on to succeed ? a boost would be really welcome just now!

BlockedHi, normaevans. I’m glad you’re back on-line. Please always feel free to click the Contact Us link at the bottom of the page to email Tech Support.
I needed to take 2 months (I had meant it to be just one) from weight loss, concentrating on maintenance instead. Major health issues in my family and I decided, OK, sometimes not eating is more stress than I need. I also cut out my morning lifting and evening walks because of the heat: no energy. On the flip side, I seem to have joined a triathalon club (I cycle, I don’t swim and I really can’t run) and muscle! I’m much stronger on the bike than I was 2 months ago–I’ve done stuff that was either physically or psychologically impossible.
So, you know, life happens. No need for confession. Come join us in the 60-Day Challenge Group. I’m working on getting down to 130 or so–I’m not sure that’s realistic, given the muscle I carry. It really is just a matter of doing it: I know when I don’t eat crap, I lose weight.
