Hi Chris, I am having the same issues you are! love drinking apple vinegar, but it doesn't help me loose weight. The one time I successfully lost weight is when I did a low fat, low sugar, low carb diet. Basically I only ate easily digestible food like salad, grilled chicken, fish, hummus. I lost about 10 pounds in 2 months. I am trying to get back to that same diet again, but the wheat products kill it for me. One sandwich on whole wheat bread and I have put on an instant 2 pounds. Good luck. Let us know how it goes.Replied By Trish (Toronto, ON) on 05/07/2009
NAY
I'm in the same boat with you, guys! I've been taking ACV for a couple of months and haven't lost a pound. I think that it mainly works for people that have lots of weight to lose. I'm 5'4 and 125 lbs. I've been wanting to get back to my pre-pg weight, which is 115 lbs. I do 1-hour trainign at the gym 2x per week, eat low-carb diet and haven't yet lost a pound, even when I started taking ACV (2T per 1L).Replied By Nipa (College Park, MD) on 05/08/2009
Hey, ACV did not work on me either. I tried it for about 3 weeks and I gained about 3 lbs! So then I stopped. One thing that does work is drinking warm water with added lemon juice and 1 teaspoon of honey. Drink it the first thing in the morning after your wake up. It will help you maintain your weight or even loose it. I am not that big, so it does not help me loose my weight, but helps me maintain my weight.Replied By Vicky (Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia ) on 05/11/2009
Hi! This is Vicky. I have been taking ACV and VCO for the last 2 months or so but there is no weight loss. I dont know if I should continue this diet or not. I feel I have put some weight on but I dare not weigh myself. It is just so frustrating. I take about 3 tbsp of ACV in a bottle of water ( I sip this throughout the day) and take about 2 tsp of VCO in the am. Is there any truth about our blood type that may affect this diet? By the way my blood type A+. Can someone pls advice??Replied By Jude (Cottonwood, Az) on 05/14/2009
To All you Nays, I think most of you women are too critical and are obsessing on what the scale is saying to you. A 3 lb weight gain is usually due to water and not actual fat gain. Also if you are working out consistently you may not notice weight loss right away as muscle is heavier than fat, stay off the scale and start measuring yourself on a weekly basis. I think the results will be more gratifying and please don't give too much concern with the scale, try weighing in once a month, if you must. I hope this helps and remember,beauty comes from the inside.Replied By Codysmom (Alexandria, Va) on 12/15/2009
I started drinking ACV about one month ago. I lost 10 lbs due to a combination of things I was taking and I am a small person with around 10 lbs to lose. I think the people that are drinking ACV but aren't losing weight is because they're counting on ACV to be the miracle diet drug. Well it's not. You can't lose weight if you're eating food loaded with sugar, corn syrup, fat and white flour processed foods. You have got to be good to yourself and eat a ton of veggies and fruits and cut out the carbs and sugar and hydrogenated vegetable oils. If you are diligent and disciplined and eat what you're supposed to eat you will lose weight with or without ACV although ACV is pretty healthy for you so I can't imagine not ever taking it on a daily basis.
