As strange as it seems, this is the easiest program to follow because it is so structured -- and most of us function better with more structure in our lives.
It also provides the most rapid weight loss of all.
And it ends up being the most economical of all because there's no other food to buy for yourself. Most people spend between $80 and $100 per week on foods of various kinds (meals at home, eating out, snacks, soft drinks, etc.). So you will probably actually save money in the long run.
Weight loss should average 2.5 to 3.5 pounds per week.
On this program you are required to see the Doctor each week.
Injections of Adenosine with multiple vitamins are strongly recommended three times weekly.
Blood will be drawn every third week to check the level of blood electrolytes.
A short EKG rythm strip will be done on the weeks when no blood is drawn.
A urinalysis will be conducted each week to check for keytones.
As on all programs, any abnormal blood test results will be repeated every three months untill normal levels are obtained.
