Katherine – Based upon my experience last year, I’d say you can easily reduce the number of scoops for the third shake. Works well – until you just give the third one up!

Since renewing my commitment to the lowcarb way in September, 2009, I’ve continued to lose another 40 pounds, for 102 pounds down from my lifetime high.

I didn’t lose in the first two weeks, three shakes a day plus one meal, maybe because I’m one of those people sensitive to whey protein. However, the second phase, mostly meat, works for me. I find that I can still choose whether to lose, gain, or stay the same by regulating my intake of salads, low-starch vegetables, nuts, and berries.

Even after a period of holiday indulgence involving a box of Whoppers, a bottle of rum, and a half-gallon of eggnog, I was two pounds below my pre-holiday weight by January 4. I simply got right back on “mostly meat” when the goodies were gone.

I’m 6′ 2″, medium frame, and 207 pounds. My target of 175-180 pounds now seems an achievable goal rather than a hopeless fantasy.

Drs. Eades: I LOVE you guys! Thanks for the 6 Week Cure! I did Protein Power about 10 years ago and loved the results. Being a lifetime Weight Watchers member, I had never experienced such success with a “diet” until I read PP. I lost about 2 pounds a week. Now, at 52, my husband and I are both in the first week…my husband has that horrible Sydrome X and I can’t wait to see his progress. Thank you for your dedication!

Today was the first day on the 6 week cure. The shakes were very filling; the third one really knocked out my desire for dinner – “the meal.” I did eat the meal; however due to nutritional concerns.

I am taking 3 scoops of protein per shake per weight instructions. I am wondering if it is OK to reduce the number of scoops to one or two on the third shake. I don’t want to mess up the success “formula.”

I have to say, this was very enjoyable – I love the shakes! I have never had a more satisfying 1600 calorie day.

I just commented – download Mozilla Firefox. That solved my problems, and I’m still using Windows 2000.

I downloaded Mozilla Firefox, which solved a number of problems with reading website. My old IE has an occasional advantage, but Firefox is very helpful, and free.

With so numerous weight lifting programs accessible it was very tough to pick the proper a single for me. Once I found a single that got me results I stuck with it and I merely modify it occasionally.

Given your age and body fat percentage, I would guess your fat is basically subcutaneous.
