Why do I have dizziness/nausea or fatigue?

When you reduce carbohydrates, you sometimes have these symptoms as your body’s metabolism adjusts to burning stored fat. The 1st few days of fatigue will go away as your body adjusts and you will feel more energetic than ever. If not, there may be an electrolyte imbalance from either potassium, sodium, calcium, magnesium or from increased water intake.

Why am I experiencing constipation?

It happens because of fiber – take Konsyl caplets from the pharmacy. Do not leave out fruit, vegetables or bread, as they all have fiber.

What about my Cholesterol?

Your cholesterol levels should go down during the 1st month, perhaps as much as 100 points!

The fruit drinks are too sweet, what can I do with them?

Try adding a bit more water when mixing; 12-20 oz. is ok.

BACK TO TOP

Do other liquids count for the 64 ounces of water?

No. This is in addition to anything else you drink.

Plateaus – They can be broken!

Try Digestive Enzymes. You can purchase them from us.
You can try the 4-2-3-1 Protein Power punch – The first day do 4 lite protein supplements. The second day, have only 2 supplements. Three on the third day and one on the fourth day. Repeat this pattern for 4 consecutive days.
Most clients lose 3.5 lbs. in 8 days. Or you can call the clinic for more "plateau breakers."

“I don’t like Soy Milk, what can I do to make it taste better?”

Try mixing it with:
A. Walden Farms Chocolate Syrup.
B. A package of Before & After Strawberry/Banana Jello + 8 strawberries
or some pineapple chunks or some peaches, all make a great shake!
C. Any of our protein flavors.

Cookbook amounts?

A Dietician is in the process of correcting that, but in the meantime, you can figure it from the fact that you will be eating 4-6 ounces of meat and 4 ounces of vegetables per meal.

BACK TO TOP

Eggs & Cheese – have a lot of fat, why are they on the program?

You are to VARY your meals, a key part of keeping the metabolism revved up!
Use Eggbeaters (0 Fat, 0 Cholesterol) rather than real eggs (4 grams of Fat).

Can I drink coffee?

Yes – but caffeine is an appetite stimulant and it will make your blood sugar a little unstable. The main thing is to not mix this stimulant with an herb that is also a stimulant.

Why can’t I use regular oatmeal and puddings?

No.  These products have too many carbs, and processed differently.

BACK TO TOP

Why can’t I drink alcohol?

Your body will burn the alcohol as a fuel source before it burns the stored fat.
It takes 3 days to get back into the diet phase.
BACK TO TOP

Can I use Atkins and other low carb products?

No. We are low fat diet program and most of the Atkins products and others are high in fat while being low in carbs. In most instances, the chemistry of the products is not right for this program. Fresh, un-processed foods are better.
