  • Measure accurately: the first week, measure everything, from the TBSP of PB to the 5 oz chicken breast. Note: 1 TBSP is a level tbsp. (Probably a lot less than you think).

  • Drink water, but not more than you need (in other words don’t drown – it doesn’t help).
  • Don’t skip snacks.
  • Skip the pre-work out snack if you exercise later in the day – either omit it all together or add it to you post workout meal.
  • Substitutions within categories (as outlined) are allowed. However, try to follow the program as best you can.
  • If you work out only moderately or less than 4 days a week – skip the afternoon snack and reduced lean protein at lunch by 1-2 oz.
  • If you workout 1+hrs6+days/week double the pre work out snack.
  • If you are post-menopause, skip the afternoon snack and reduce lunch and dinner protein portions by 1-2 oz.
  • Men: either double the midmorning snack or add an extra snack (your choice).
  • Nursing moms: either double the mid morning snackor add an extra snack (your choice).

  • Everyone: Take a multivitamin and two Rolaids a day (for calcium and magnesium).
  • If you’re pregnant: you’re supposed to gain weight. Stop by again in nine months!
  • You may always have a coffee with your pre workout snack –with sweetener and a little skim milk is fine. Only one caffeinated coffee a day though. Make the rest decaf.
  • Don’t “taste” little things here and there on the program. They add up and you won’t get the results you’re after. You can do this, it’s only three weeks.

  • Depending on how much you have to lose and how active you are – you can lose up to 2 lbs of fat per week on this plan. That’s a lot. 6 lbs is 24 sticks of butter. Picture that in your mind’s eye. It’s far more impressive than losing 8 lbs of water on a fad diet plan.
