Important
ATTN 12 week people - stop reading this is not for you! this is only for the 16 week people
If you have hit a "weight loss plateau" and want to start phase 3 now I am going to lay it out for you.... please only begin phase 3 if you have been compliant on phase 2 and not losing weight. If on the other hand you are doing your own thing here and there and have been less than compliant then focus on getting disciplined on phase 2 because phase 3 takes A LOT more discipline.
July 12th is the official Phase 3 meeting (I will be covering more than what I lay out here so this is NOT in substitution of the meeting)... this is simply to get you a jump start if you need it. Also, a reminder that on July 12th at 8:30 a.m. (right after the meeting) I will be holding a strength and conditioning seminar... its free and you are simply insane if you don't come to it. I am going to go into a lot of detail on MANY topics that you MUST hear, process, and start doing
Phase 3
1) Low carb days are veggies only now... so both men and women will have ZERO containers of carbs on low carb days. Men can stick with 1 fruit and women you may also have 1 fruit first thing in the morning.... if you have not been eating your veggies this is where you will get crushed. Veggies are carbs, so you need to rely on them.
2) High carb days are cut so that men will only have 2 containers and women only 1 container.
3) Fats and Protein stay the same for men and women
4) No more cheat meals
5) Taking fast paced walks at night to burn extra calories is strongly encouraged... so instead of watching Dancing with the Who's got talent on Grey's Anatomy; go take a walk with your spouse.
ENJOY!
p.s. if you think this is difficult, it's getting there - but I told you it would get harder as time went on... like I said, if you have not been 100% compliant on phase 2, please do not even think about starting this until you are totally compliant on phase 2 otherwise you will screw up your metabolism.

Men's weight loss leaders...
Jim Buchanan - 18 lbs
Neal Snyder - 18 lbs
Santo Castronovo - 16 lbs
Frank Castronovo - 15 lbs
Anthony Castronovo - 15 lbs
Mark Feldman - 15 lbs
Brett Koffman - 14 lbs
These 7 guys have lost 111 pounds in 49 days... not bad. All the other men doing a great job; some don't have as much to lose and have a lot to be proud of. Still a lot of time left and it will only get harder from here. Right now you have a lot of momentum, keep in going - all the rewards come in the last half.
Looks like many of the women are doing great as well... don't get to see a lot of the women all that often, but Lina, Donna, Jan, Karyn, Mary Lee and many others are looking awesome. Will have Jody post a woman's leader board later.

Women day 41, Sunday June 14
Those that had your recharge meal yesterday hope you enjoyed! I need everyone to email or blog their weigh to me. Thanks.
Men Day 40, Saturday June 13th (1/3 of the way through)
From the day we started until the day we finish is 120 days... we are 1/3 through. My goal at the start was to lose 16 lbs by the finish... right now I am down an average of 5.5 lbs from day 1 which is exactly where I wanted to be at this point (started at an avg. of 181.5 in the morning and down to an average of 176). Remember, many of you lost a lot of weight fast because of intestinal mass build-up, bloating, etc... after the first 2 weeks your weight loss became more steady at a good 1.5 - 2 lbs per week which is just what we want to see. My goal for next 40 days is another 5.5 lbs which will absolutely happen.
High carb day:
7:00 a.m. 2 slices Ezekiel, 1/2 serving almond butter, Dream Protein and Greens First and a granny smith apple
10:15 deadlifting and stone lifting during boot camp
noon 5 eggs, 1 piece of dry rye toast, lettuce and tomato

Women day 40, Sat June 13
Welcome to the weekend! Ladies after speaking to Tom we would like you all to start taking in only 40g of fat. NO LESS! Everything else stays the same. Weigh yourselves and get back to me.
Supplements announcement
Greens First is on back order and should be in by Monday or Tuesday; also, you will notice that we are carrying Harmonized Protein now instead of Dream Protein... it's the same thing (both are hormone free products) - harmonized actually tastes better and Harmony use a better process for filtering their protein than Dream. I've been having a lot of problems with Dream Protein filling orders on time and have done a lot of homework to find a suitable replacement and I have found Harmony to be an EXCELLENT product. Harmony actually retails for $6.00 more than Dream, but we are keeping it at the same price ($40) per 24 ounce container.... you won't find a better price anywhere (after you account for shipping). I am also going to sample their Greens product to see if it is as good as Greens First, if it is I may switch to their Greens product as well.
Great job so far everyone... 39 days in for most of you and you are all still here! iIknew deep down you were all gluttons for punishment! Don't worry, it will keep getting harder and harder!

women day 37, wed June 10
Good morning! Everyone please be drinking a gallon of water each day. 8 of the regular size poland springs bottles ( like we sell at the gym) or get a container like mine that holds a half gallon and fill it twice. Many of you are retaining water big time! Also, pack raw veggies to snack on all day. This will speed up your metabolism and curve hunger. These things are extremelly important for you to start doing now.
