Just thought I'd share the program I used to loose 115lbs. It was a program called Connecticut Weight and Wellness and its a VERY strict program. It consists of drinking about ten protien shakes a day, a little fat, and a little salt. Thats done for the first couple weeks then your allowed to start mixing in real food again. Basicaly your taking in ~800 calories a day which is why it is doctor supervised and they do a blood test before you start then again after each 50lbs lost, each week you'll be weighed in on their scales which calculate your water, body fat, and oh jeeze some other stuff its really neat. On this program weight loss is extremly rapid within the first two week I dropped 24lbs then again I was 364lbs at the time. After that weightloss is pretty constant at around 4-6lbs a week. The only thing with this diet is that you have to be dedicated and not cheat because your body will begin a whole new motabolizing process apparently. If anyone has any questions let me know.
