I know I don't get on here as much as I'd like to, but I wanted to communicate for a minute, partly to just express my gratitude and hopefully to give some encouragement to someone who happens to need it.
I started this diet after seeing about 8 women that I know do it with success. Yes I needed that much proof. I started this diet 4 weeks ago, and I had a goal of losing 14 lbs. That may not seem like a lot to some, but it was 14 lbs that I haven't been able to get rid of no matter what workout or eating regimen I tried. And I've been trying. I just kept giving up because nothing was working.
So in 4 basically effortless weeks I have lost 10 lbs and have only 4 left. And I have to say that even though it's tougher in the beginning when you're body is adjusting to the changes in food types and quantities, this is the easiest weight I've ever lost. And I've come up with AMAZING recipes. I LOVE the food on my diet. Yes there are a few things I'd like to have that I can't on this diet. But I still love the foods I am allowed to have. And you know what is the most beautiful thing about this diet? No matter what, I (you) have a personal formula to lose a pound or two here and there if you ever again feel like you want or need to. There is no mystery about what you need to do. I have my personal formula that makes my metabolism race faster than it ever has before and makes the pounds come off almost effortlessly while still eating like 5 times a day!
I have established great eating habits that I really like and WANT to continue. And because this diet is so balanced I don't find myself craving things like chocolate, sugar, potatoes, whatever. I just don't. I actually get excited for my morning yogurt and fruit. And yesterday my friend Drew called me "Skinny B*tch"!!! THAT was like the best name anyone has ever called me.
So that's what's up. I ordered my refeed and should have it in a few days. And depending how thin I look when I receive it I may or may not go to my stated target of 100 lbs. It may actually be too skinny for my body type. I like how I look right now, and the 100 number was an arbitrary number based on what I THOUGHT would be good. But we'll see. In any case, I'll be starting the refeed VERY soon and I'll keep you all posted on how it goes.
