How long should I stay on P1?

I have been on P1 since Monday. It's going great.

My question - I have read in the book and in other places that some people should stay on P1 for longer than two weeks. Is this b/c they SHOULD do it, or that they COULD do it?

I need to loose 113 pounds to be at the top end of my recommended weight range. A more realistic weight for me would require that I loose 102 pounds....still a lot of weight. Should I consider staying on P1 longer than 2 weeks just b/c of the amount of weight I need to lose? I already have very few cravings, so if it's just about the cravings then I think it will be fine to move to P2 after my two weeks are over.

What do you all recommend? Thanks.

Kristi

Hi Kristi,


It's really not recommended to stay on phase 1 for longer than 2 weeks.

I really don't want to stay on P1 for more than 2 weeks, so I'm glad it's that some people choose to do so.

Thanks for all your great answers!
