FORUMS > Losing Weight Forum Rules

Welcome to the official support forum for the new RealJock.com Healthy-Weight Loss Program from nutrition expert Manuel Villacorta. The Healthy Weight-Loss Program is not a calorie-counting program. Instead, your meal plans are based on a macronutrient distribution—a percent distribution of calories from carbohydrates, proteins, and fats. Villacorta has translated this distribution to the number of servings allowed per food group, which will help you more easily control your serving sizes.

Please this forum for any questions, as well as for support and encouragement from other members.

If you want a fully personalized weight-loss program complete with one-on-one interaction with trained nutritionists, check out Nutrition for You, Villacorta's advanced online weight management tool for RealJock members.

Good luck!

Hiye!

I am just at the beginning as started on 02/25/08. Anyway, friends notice already some "changes" in my shape but much more important I feel ENERGETIC as I have not felt since a lot!! The program fits easy in my day life and is going on fine! Along this I do some exercises everyday, mostly swimming and cardio.
I have HBP and since I do not take any chemical but only matural remedies I see the diet implementing the therapy. And the sphygmograph speaks clearly!!

Let's go ahead, then!

All the best.

I'm about to start this plan and was wondering a few things. First, are the different parts of each day interchangable? For example, if I'm not able to make a certain breakfast due to timing, can I just replace it with another from another day? And second, what are some good replacements for Flaxseed Meal that would be more common? I'm currently staying with my family until August and so I don't want to make them hunt down things they've never even heard of like Flaxseed Meal. Everything else on the menu seems common though so that's good ALso, what are good times to eat these things, how much time should we take between each meal and snack?

Just curious if you could set up a weekly shopping list for the diet to help out?

Hello,
Name is Sean, and I am going to start this plan on Monday and would love to have some feed back on the success that anyone has had with this. Also would love a list of meals or things your eating.

hihi,

yeah so i've got a question on the plan.
does "2 G&S" = 2 servings of G&S
and so on for the others ?

lol, i'm wondering about it because when i cross-refer to the sample meal and the allowance, it slightly differs from the overview for some. so yeah, i wanna adopt this plan but i'm afraid i'll substitute wrong amounts.

if anyone can clarify, it'll be great help for me.
thanks

I am going to start this full-force this week. To buy everything on the list to be ready to go cost me $110.00. I keep an amazingly empty kitchen so I will not have to buy many items week-to-week and my cost was higher b/c I had to get what most people already have most likely.

You all have my support. I'll be rooting for you guys!

I am starting this week as well. So I will be eating dried apricots with you in spirit.

Hello all; I'm looking to start this plan alongside the 12 week lean and strong program early next week.

Just wondering: how would I go about modifying this plan for myself? I'm 5'5" and weight about 140 pounds.

Any advice would be most appreciated!

Thanks y'all!

Hey, so I have a sorta gross question to ask but.... when people started this diet, did y'all notice any like gastrointestinal issues? As in changes in bowel habits? It's sorta embarrassing but I'm trying to figure out if what i'm experiencing is normal, or if I should be concerned that it's something else. Obviously you can just reply directly to me if you don't wanna poste a reply to this forum LOL

But yeah, I basically started Day 1 of this meal plan yesterday, tho I've been trying to get myself ready over the past few weeks by cutting down on the worst-for-me foods (fries, processed pasta, etc). It's tough!
