I really don't know what I am doing wrong. I followed the dietician guidelines the first month and exercised and did not lose but gained 3 pounds due to TOM. Now, here I am mid-month and I haven't lost anything yet. When I went for the first weigh in I told the nurse I felt like I was being forced to eat way too much. She told me to eat what I felt comfortable with if it was less food. So I have been, still no loss, what am I doing wrong. I have been using the Tony Little Gazelle for exercise between 30 and 60 minutes a day. I know if I don't lose something thing next weigh in I will be in real big trouble. Should I try protein drinks to lose weight? I don't know what more to do. If so what protein drinks are good? The most I ever lost was from not eating for almost a month.

I am also on the 6 month weight loss program. I lost 10 lbs. the first month. Try cutting out carbs. If you drink pop, cut that out also. Good luck!

I dont eat many carbs to begin with, and I only drink diet soda some of the time, I never drink regular soda. Most of the time I drink water, I don't drink coffee, although sometimes tea if I am sick, or iced in the summertime. I am working out 2 miles a day on the gazelle and doing some weights also. I don't get what I am doing wrong. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

I am on my 3rd week of the supervised diet. I joined W Watchers. The first week I lost 2.4, then the next week I gained 2 back. I do fine until evening usually. then I am tempted to cheat. So far I am still within my alloted points. On mother's day I survived a buffet ( I only went thru the salad bar and fruit bar) only to eat 2 burgers at the cook out at supper. Counting points is working ok. I made an appt w my GP for every month. My initial surgeon visit is May 31. What is the reason some have to go on liquid diets??? Tips I put salad dressing on a saucer, 1 or 2 Tbsp. then dip into it. I am surprised at how little I can get by with. Count out crackers or snacks and put them in a single serving snack bag, then you won't be tempted to eat more than you are suposed to have.

From what i understand the liquid diet is to shrink the liver
