I had my doctor's appt today with the clinic doctor today. She said I'm burning lots which is really good. I'm still retaining water from the heat wave. Now that its cooled down I hope for my weight to drop quite a bit over the weekend. My 2-week weight goal next week is 151.8-154.8. I'm at 160.2 now. I'm usually 2 lbs higher than my 2 week goal for some reason so I do not expect to drop 5.4 lbs over the weekend and on Tuesday. But if I can get to at least 156.8 then I will be happy with that.
I have decided to end my diet at the end of June. It's just getting too expensive and really starting to stress me out. Everyone keeps telling me that its worth going into debt over and the extra expense. I do not 100% agree with this. I want to start paying back the money I paid for this expensive diet and start living my life again! It was a great experience to get me to lose the weight I needed to lose and to start feeling better. However, at the end of June I plan to start working out again and eating pretty much the same way. I will be able to lose the rest of the weight by myself ---I know I can and I am determined enough to do it!
Here's my update:
Current weight as of May 21, 2010: 160.2
Starting Weight as of Jan 5/10: 218.4
Total Weight loss to date: 58.2 lbs
Weight loss to go: 30.2 lbs

Hey Shenade,
I am thinking about doing the diet myself. I have found a few blogs of people that are doing it themselves, with success.
You can buy potassium supplements over the counter (it's called micro K instead of Cal k). And you can buy vitamin b12 and B6 (pyridoxine) injections from shoppers drug mart over the counter for less than 50$. You just need to get some insulin needles and inject them subcutaneously at the clinic, which really isn't so bad!
As well, you can buy Ketostix at the pharmacy, to measure ketones.
So, basically you can do everything yourself! Without going in to major debt!
I definitely appreciated the info at the beginning, but I don't think it's necessary to pay them that much for what they're giving you, considering HOW CHEAP b vitamins are when you buy them yourself!
anyways, just a thought! I think i am going to try once i run out of the days ive paid for already.
oops, i meant inject them subcutaneously at home! not at the clinic.. duh!
This was the worst diet I have ever been on in my life. I was literally starving the whole time. Anyone who starves themselves will lose weight. What a waste of money. I've now changed my lifestyle and lost a bunch of weight. This is a gimmick, don't waste your money. Spend it on better food and you will be fine.
