As it was already after 4 PM and I felt rushed to somehow prepare AND eat 2 pounds of veggies and fruit before 6 PM, I decided to begin with the MILK routine first. While pouring the 10 oz whole milk I suddenly felt that this would in no way shape or form ever, ever, EVER, be enough “food” – this sentiment even though I was not hungry! Lucky enough I love plain yogurt. On a whim I decided to do a shake with it all and a couple of ice cubes and to go ahead and try the TORIANI Sugar Free Rasperry Syrup [Splenda, ugh]. I used only 1/2 serving of the syrup for all of it, which barely flavored it but was actually quite good, not overly artificial. It was a good moment to add a lot of vitamins, so that’s done too.
About
10 August 2009 is the day that I began a new adventure.
As a fact, it is so far off any other diet I've ever read about or done myself that I needed a place to keep it all together, a place to write down my life on this path.
MY GOAL: to finally lose the weight I had gained when I stopped smoking almost 10 years ago.
Not that I am currently heavily overweight. But I have always been very skinny and I feel at my best then. From the 45 pounds I had gained, I managed to rid myself of 20 pounds in arduous attempts. But the last 25 pounds have stuck with me way too long and tired of constantly "dieting" and hovering around the same 5 pounds, I decided to drastically change something.
