So, after making the changes to our protocol for use of AS6.75, my wife started seeing real progress! (I continue to drop weight-- but I'm not worried now about how I look, somehow my body tightened up a bit and my chest doesn't look smaller anymore)
We began following Shannon's recommendations specifically for her:
The actual results are that she is about 3 or 4 pounds down since the beginning of the loop, possibly a little more (it hasn't been long enough to tell for sure because the drop started this past Monday and we're only at Wednesday)
- Add a loop each night (so there are now 6)
- Shorten the ASRB2 break to one night
- Play a loop at meal times (I have not been faithful about this one--mealtime prep is hectic and I usually forget)
It looked like this:
She has always (since she originally lost her weight some 6 years ago or so) exercised 90 minutes 3x/week with weights and walks/runs 2x/week. These have remained constant. No change at all.
- She started getting serious about cutting her food (and drink) consumption quantities.
- Went back to counting calories using MyFitnessPal
- Seems to have backed off the munching (or so she reports)
Glad to hear there is progress being made for (and by) her!
Quote:She feels and acts happier and sexier (in fact yesterday she was out of this world fun!), not as given to crankiness and over-sensitivity. Is this a psychological effect of losing the weight or is there some mood enhancer in the sub?
The only thing the sub does is adjust your appetite. So this is the effect of success in achieving the goal.
Quote:Maybe the crankiness and moodiness was her resisting the sub subconsciously?
You got it in one my friend.
Quote:I've had almost constant headaches since we began the sub. These are tension headaches that start in my 'weak spot' in my upper back and neck. I also seem to be on the verge of migraine. Thoughts about this? Until just this moment I had been attributing the headaches to weather, etc.
I think that if those headaches are caused by your response to the sub, some part of you subconsciously is trying to resist the program but can't, likely because it holds fears related to achieving your actual ideal weight. That fear is being expressed the only way it can, through tension and the resulting headaches. Sometimes I get these for short periods of time on LTU6, and I wasn't sure what was causing them until I realized that some of them are tension headaches caused by hyper-tense neck muscles. That leads me to believe it's a subconscious expression of fear, and potentially an effort to make running the program uncomfortable as an encouragement to stop.
