I do want to note that I haven't purchased anything that someone was trying to sell me. I had a very poor diet most of my adult life. Obese yet eating only one meal a day - usually fast food. Then I was prescribed diet pills and lost 70 lbs. and was eating almost nothing.
I appreciate that some may disagree with the dietary changes I have currently made but for me, I am eating more healthy than ever before. 3 healthy meals and two snacks every day vs fast food caffeine and alcohol every day. The only thing I have purchased has been vitamins, antifungal supplements. Probiotic and organic food. I have energy and no sugar highs and lows. Caffeine / sugar withdrawal headache subsided after two days.
Here is what I consume on a typical day
Water with lemon when I get up
Breakfast: Prebiotic shake: almond milk, blueberries, plant based protein powder, spinach, coconut oil, almond butter, apple cider vinegar, banana - it's sweet and filling.
Probiotic and supplements
AM snack: hard boiled egg white, handful of almonds and blackberries
Lunch: large salad of arugula, mixed greens, olives, egg whites, tuna fish, scallops or chicken, olive oil and vinegar supplements
PM snack: see AM snack
Dinner: fish, chicken or grass fed beef with either salad or roasted vegetables. Supplements.
I also drink half my body weight in water daily. I have never eaten this healthy before and to those who say I'm eliminating foods my body needs I would disagree.
Omitted from this diet (for 12 weeks only) are dairy, soy, sugar, caffeine, gluten, night shade veg (tomatoes, white potatoes).
I've lost 9 lbs in a week although I'm not in this for weight loss. Research does say your skin may flare before it gets better in part from stopping Topicals and in part from toxins released ( your skin is the body's largest organ)
Keep you posted. Looking forward to week two on this journey.
