I've been on JUDD for a week, and am down two pounds (save the bounces). I just entered my data at weightgrapher.com and got this neat graph showing the dynamics of my weight loss.
I do have a question - on two of my DD's, I got so hungry I ended up eating an extra 100-200 calories (my DD = 380; UD = 1,800). Do you think that will derail my progress? I'm not sure if I was actually hungry, but more rather in the habit of wanting to eat. How did you break that and build your will? |

My Inspiration is YOU
![]() Hey Ya'll, noob here. To be short and sweet, I've been calorie counting for years with little progress. I work out 6x a week and restrict what seems like all the time without losing so much as an oz. It's pretty discouraging. I saw JUDDD on another unmentionable site and was led here I've always been a troller but want to be active on the boards and share my successes and get feedback from you incredible people. UD for me today, woot! No more excuses and non-committal crap. I won't be happy until I'm back to goal. I'm not a great cook but have been experimenting lots and really focusing on changing my relationship with food. PS-LOVE LOVE LOVE the cabbage recipe, it has saved me during the first days of induction. Thank you all AGAIN. ![]() |

I'm a newbie too, and really hoping this works for me as well.
At 39, I went on Atkins and lost 70 lbs. Although I still had another 25 lbs to lose, I felt comfortable at the weight I was at, and chose to maintain there for three years. But when I started to try and lose the last 25 lbs., the scale started to creep back up instead of down! I freaked out when I was up another 35 lbs. of the 70 I lost. So, now in my 50's, I tried losing again with Atkins.........and nothing! Then I tried WW, and STILL nothing (I lost from 225 lbs. down to 209.4.........got down to 208.2 ONE DAY, but then jumped right back up into the teens again on the scale, and have been there for a couple of years!) I can't seem to lose anything even though I am following the plan and eating the same calories every day while working out. It is so frustrating to sit in my weekly meetings and listen to these women lose weight without even doing any activity..........and then there's ME..............not losing ANYTHING even though I work out 5-6X a week! I stumbled onto a JUDDD write-up (Carly's write-up which I have been trying to find again so that I could read it again for inspiration, but can't find it now)......and thought I might give this JUDDD concept a try! It made some sense to me; I have metabolic resistance (my body fights every diet and seems to settle into whatever I throw at it)......but this JUDDD diet is about CONFUSING your metabolism and waking it up..............THAT sure sounded like something I NEED! Best of luck to all of you other newbies, and let's hope this works for all of us! ![]()

KierasMom
KeriasMom: WOW! I was just looking at your stats.....it's amazing to see where you started from, and where you are NOW! It gives me hope that even though my weight is in the 200's and I'm 54 years old..............I could possibly get down to the mid-150's or even less! I cannot even imagine that at this point, since I haven't seen those numbers since my late 20-s and early 30's...........but I still have hope!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks Linda!

Possibly Returning to JUDDD
Hi, I was on this forum years ago. I'm back and in the midst of being tested for hypothyroidism (I have all the symptoms). Is anyone following JUDDD with hypothyroidism? How has it been?

Thanks, SS. I was on here with Leo originally and was amazed at her progress and dedication. Where would be the best spot to contact or read about Keira's mom and her journey?
Thanks! |

![]() I saw on another thread that you asked about fasting before your bloodwork. My concern is that I don't know if you've already been doing rotations, or if today would be your first DD. If you're already in the groove, having a DD should be fine. If this would be your first DD, I would recommend AGAINST doing one before your blood draw, just because of the potential for skewed results from doing something so totally different from your "normal" routine. Be forewarned: If you get a diagnosis of hypothyroidism, it's sort of a long journey to become optimized on medication. The doctor will start you with low doses of hormones and gradually increase. And thyroid disease is for life, so you will be on medication of one form or another for the rest of your days. Leo always advocates finding a doctor you're comfortable with and one who is well-versed in thyroid issues. It's not always easy, but it's definitely worth it. Best of luck!

Thank you, Dawn. I'm glad I asked about the bloodwork. This was going to be my first DD, but I don't want to mess up b/w tomorrow, so I'm off to eat lol Sat needs to be an UD, so I guess DD 1 will be Wed. So glad to be back.

I retuned home from a month long eating and wine drinking fest in Europe last night. I got on the scale this morning. I am up more than I would like, but am confident I will be back to where I like to be in a couple of weeks. All of my clothes still fit so a lot of the gain is not fat. Needless to say today is a DD. After having 3 meals a day prepared for me, I'm glad I don't have to cook very much! It is easy to get spoiled! Hubby only expects a salad for dinner, so it will be easy. You will be fine and I hope you like JUDDD as much as the rest of us.....

Nitah, I turn 72 in October. There are also some cyber sisters in their sixties. You are not alone in this age bracket by any means, so come on in -- the water's fine. |

I have been on EVERY diet imaginable, with no real success! Talk about a snail's pace. My doctor finally did many many tests on me, to finally tell me that I have a HIGH metabolic resistance to pretty much every diet out there. I was working out with high cardio 6x a week every week and following strict diets (Atkins, Nutrisystem, Weight Watchers, etc., etc.....you name.....I've tried it).....with no success. I recently injured my knee (while I was cleaning my house, believe it or not), and started putting on weight very fast because I was sedentary with this injury, even though I was following strict WW foods and eating plan. Desperate for help, I started searching the web and came across this great group of ladies on this site called "JUDDD". Fast forward..............two weeks ago I started JUDDD just as a last-hope stitch...(I figured what have I got to lose, except weight)! And OMG......it IS WORKING! I am down 8.6 lbs in 13 days so far; tomorrow will be my two-week weigh-in. I started out 13 days ago at almost 210 lbs., and I am now knocking on the door of Onederland (at 201.2 as of this morning)! My son went on it a week ago, and lost -11.6 lbs his first week, as well as his wife.....(I think she lost around 10 or 11 lbs as well), and my other friend who is 66 years old just lost -8.6 lbs in her first week. As you can see, I'm alot slower than everyone else, but with a metabolic disorder that I have, I am just happy to lose SOMETHING! So don't hesitate trying it! It's miraculous for people like US!!!!! ![]()
