Question?  When do you need an adjustment?

Answer:  Everyone requires a different restriction level and adjustment schedule for optimal results.  There are several indicators that may alert you t schedule an appointment.  These include:

No weight loss for more than 3 weeks

Increased Appetite

Feeling hungry less than 4 hours after eating a meal

Able to eat more food at a meal than usual

Increased snacking

Able to eat foods you were unable to eat before such as breads and fibrous foods
