You'll all be seeing a little less of me
Okay, I am finally committed to a diet. It's been a while since I have uttered that filthy little four letter word, but there it is. In black and white. I stepped out of the shower and caught one too many glimpses of my naked self, and the truth is there staring back at me. You are what you eat. I apparently eat way too much fat! Ah, those lovely huge bowls of ice cream piled up high in my bowl, sometimes just barely able to cover the fruits and other yummy sweets smothered in the pure delight! ~Why have ice cream alone when cookies, candies and syrups all blend so nicely?! I would find the smallest spoon so as not to eat this bowl of joy in too big a rush! NO! I must savor every sweet morsel! Savor, I did! Now look! I am filling up on a gallon of water and loving my 500 calorie diet! (I AM actually very full right now) I can count on some very tough times ahead, but I can also see me going clothes shopping!!!! I also have some very good friends along for this torturous ride of slender beauty! So, I bid you ado, and see a little less of me around here. ;)

This is reckless and ill advised. Your body is going to think it is starving, and when you go back to eating the way you used to your body is going to pack those pounds back on. I mean you got into the shape you are in by living the way you have been right? so you starve yourself for awhile and then go back to the same ole, same ole and are right back where you started. Diets don't work because they do not address the cause of the condition, poor eating and too little activity,in the first place. I only say this out of concern because starvation diets can cause significant health problems down the line. Tom Hanks did it for Castaway, look at pics of him in the years before and after that movie.

ReplyDeleteWell Kayce, this would be true if I weren't using the HCG drops. (some use the injections) Fasting has been a centuries long practice, so I know that I will not starve, I am only doing this for the recommended 40 days.Plus, I have 500 healthy calories a day. The drops act on the abnormal fat cells and cause them to release into the system. The body then uses these fats for energy. That's what they were supposed to be doing all along, but with the sudden changes in my body after quitting smoking about 14 years ago, the fat cells just stored up. Now don't assume that my diet isn't good. I eat a large percent of organics, plenty of fish, fresh vegis and I get 13, yes 13 servings of fruits and vegis every day. I am physical, I have a large amout of animals that I tend to which includes hauling hay by hand, slinging 50 lb bags of feed over my shoulder and wrestling goats to get them trimmed and milked. Oh, and did I mention that I am a nurse? I know nutrition and I don't have any unhealthy habits. What I do (did) have is 35 lbs of stubborn fat that I am successfully removing in a safe manner. So far I have lost 23.6 lbs. My face is not drawn in, my breasts are still the same size and I have a much better eating habit now. Diets only work if you are 100% commited and then make life-long changes in eating habits. I had made many of those changes prior to starting this diet, but now with the wt loss, I can have my new set weight. Ask me in a year from now how I am on my weight. That will be the test. As far as starvation, read the HCG information and you will see that this does not starve the body at all. In fact we are all feeling just fine and have plenty of energy. ("We" meaning the group of friends on this plan together) Check back next summer to see for yourself.
