i've lost 6 lbs this week!
Permalink Closed


(okay- i know its water weight- but just wanted to share!) 

My goal is to lose 10-15lbs of fat and to get toned- so i know this will take me 6 wks to 8 wks and i'm not making any weird shortcuts like starving myself.

But this week i've been following a modified detox diet, which includes:
1 bottle or half a bottle of Synergy Kombucha tea from whole foods (i think this is key- it is good for appetite control) daily
2 neptune krill suplements (i've heard this is good for acne/pms- so i'll see how it goes)
lots of fresh produce and things close to the ground- eggs, veggies/fruits, steak, fresh baguettes and nice cheese
very little refined sugars/wheats
less dairy than usual- though not cut out entirely
very little processed foods/canned soups and anything high in sodium
lots of water, NO coffee or alcohol (will have to reintroduce alcohol to my body soon- lol)

plus i just started exercising again- i went running for 30 mins yesterday and did the carmen electra fit to strip dvd earlier in the week- i also joined a gym by my house so i can start lifting weights again.  And i'm walking around a lot- i walked 2 miles on my last lunchbreak.

i'm definitely not starving myself-last night i had filet mignon with baguette and comte cheese, and a salad of spring mix and olive oil/balsamic vinegar and some sea salt.  I'm eating 3 really good meals a day that I prepare for myself or in advance, and not allowing meaningless snacking- only something if I feel hungry.

Anyway- I just wanted to post this because even though it sounds like common sense, i thought it could help motivate someone- the kombucha tea is great (i get the fruit ones- original and ginger ones )

Congratulations Lynnie! Water weight or not - your dedication to sticking with the plan is highly commendable!

Please do review how those krill thing works for the acne. I fear I'll never get off BCP for the sake of my skin!
