Day 8: Week 1 - Weight In

Well, I've been pretty focused on eating the right things & right amounts along with daily exercise.  My scale showed 1 pound loss.  But if I keep in mind that I really started exercising and watching what I ate on the day I left for a Beach Vacation on July 30th then I've lost a total of 5 lbs. in 2 1/2 weeks.  So I refuse to quit!!  A friend loaned me her copy of the Flat Belly Diet and it gives you a 4 day Jump Start plan so I started today.  The food and this Sassy Water (ginger, cucumber, lemon, and spearmint soaked water) is pretty dismal but it claims that you can lose around 4 lbs.  The most successful diet I was on a few years back was LA Weightloss (then they went bankrupt), anyway they had this pretty similiar Take Off plan for 2 days.  I think it just somehow let's your body and brain know that you mean business.  So, I'm determined to give it a try.  I'll keep you posted.  Anyone out there have any luck with the Flat Belly Diet?

  1. I've heard of it, but never tried it myself. I joined WW with a friend in January of this year. She needed to do something, but didn't want to go alone. I was surprised to find it worked for me. I'm still a member, but only go to meetings once a month or so. I'm not loosing nearly as fast as I was...but I am loosing, so I guess that's what counts!

    5 pounds in 2.5 weeks...that's awesome!!!!!!!!!!

  2. Nej-thanks for all your comments. Since I've been drawing my support lately from my Blog, it's great to know there are people out there. I just sat down to drink a smoothie (3rd meal on my Jump Start plan) and was pleasantly surprised to read my blog.
    Thanks,
