I would like you to understand two things.
First, the program is designed to clear out two areas that are frequently guilty of contributing to weight gain, and they may or may not be required to be dealt with, or significantly completed, before you begin losing weight. That's half of why it's designed to be used in blocks of six months at a time.
Second, you are not going to do nothing and achieve the program goals unless you have not much weight to lose. Once you allow the program to work and start cooperating, it will shift your eating patterns, the amount you eat, etc. but it will also shift other things as well, including metabolism, activity level, point of view, desires, etc.
I'm saying this because if your reasons for being overweight are based heavily in certain directions, it may take longer to get past those issues and start losing. Part of the process is healing your reasons for being overweight, and that cannot be done faster than you are ready for. For some it is fast, and for others the initial clearing stages take more time. By your response so far I would say you're almost certainly resisting the program either because you are taking it as being told what to do, and you hate being told what to do, or something it's trying to heal is something you need to deal with slowly right now.
Also, don't think you are going to do nothing and the program will magically make everything happen. The program motivates you, once you accept and cooperate with it, to do everything necessary to achieve the goal. Being active, etc. If you can lose 10 pounds in 5 weeks doing something else, ask yourself, "Why aren't I cooperating with the program?" Perhaps you'll find that sticking point releases faster if you consciously understand and consider it.
If you find yourself wanting to work out, don't stop yourself because of preconceived notions that "the program should be doing this, not me". The program is guiding you to do what is necessary.
In any case, keep going.
