I have followed the BFC plan since Jan and lost 25 pounds, but I went a whole month and didn't lose anything. I was actually following Jorge's meal plan during that time, but when I started to plan my own meals I started to lose again. I think because I needed more fiber. Well thanks for sharing!karisafihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06757609767735273974noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6050428273619531323.post-62130956479454437452010-04-07T07:46:41.698-07:002010-04-07T07:46:41.698-07:00I just found your blog this morning and went back ...I just found your blog this morning and went back to read your history. Like you, I lost some weight the first couple of weeks and then nothing for the next 4 weeks. I haven't given up though. I don't have that much to lose. I am 5'5" and 155#s. I would like to lose 15 - 20 #s. <br /><br />I have been a low carber for the last 10 years or so, but my problem was eating too much of the low carb stuff. I think that is why I have maintained my weight, but at least I haven't been putting weight on. For the 6 weeks I have been on the BFC program, I have kept to under 15/6 with the count divided up between meals - so 5/2g 3 times per day. My total carbs have stayed under 100grams.<br /><br />For most of the time I have focused on getting my bowels moving again. I have taken so many antibiotics that I think I did my "good bugs" in. I have also been an exlax junkie for almost 25 years since my bowels never seemed to want to move on their own. So I have been taking plenty of Probiotics. I have also taken 1 T physillium husks every day along with a fiber laxative. I think I have gotten rid of all the hidden belly fat (junk in my intestines). I am going to keep eating high fiber and slowly start weaning myself off the other stuff, to see if my body can process on its own.<br /><br />Now that I completed that nasty task - I wondered why I wasn't losing more. I am very happy about eating healthy, and have replaced almost everything in my house with healthy alternatives. <br /><br />I was reading Ambers blogs at www.meandjorge.com and noticed she eats way less than I do. So I decided on top of my 15/6 max sugars and carbs, to also take a look at my calorie count. I know Jorge says to not do that - but I found that I was eating 1800 - 2000 calories in a day. I am going to try and continue monitoring my sugar and carb consumption and slowly lower my calories until I find the sweet spot that will allow me to start losing weight again.<br /><br />Thank you for your blog. You are an inspiration.

Can you tell us what you typically eat in a day? Maybe there is a clue I am missing.Stop Eating Sugarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12008576443262800321noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6050428273619531323.post-71303202737335401662010-04-06T08:05:06.177-07:002010-04-06T08:05:06.177-07:00Way to go!!!
