MemberI just started this program as of yesterday. It may take me a few days to see how this all works, so I may be a little slower than others at the weight loss piece.

Keymasterto bigmama61 : you can still eat some junk food once in a while but try to change the way you live and when you are stressed just take few minutes to relax or just a short walk – this is better for me than just eating. believe me, I know what you mean (:

MemberFIGBRAT: grass fed beef is a cow that eats mostly-all grass, not GMO corn like most cows do in this country. You should be able to find this kind of beef at a local butcher shop, but it is quite pricey. My local butcher does a “package” where I can buy a bundle of varied meats from local ranches for a lower price (ends up being more than a grocery store still, but quality is better, without all of the overprocessing and garbage in most grocery meats). Watch the movie FOOD, INC. and I think you might rush to your local butcher shop, but ASK QUESTIONS. They seem to like to talk about where they get the meat from and how it is processed (or brag about how unprocessed it is…). I even found out the exact farm where they get grassfed beef from, so if I was so inclined I could visit the farm and see the conditions the animals are raised in. Hope that helps…

MemberI also wondered what zucchini was and now I know. Thanks for that. I have found Warburton make a wholegrain bread. It’s available in most UK supermarkets. I’m trying to find an alternative for the sweetener that appears in many of the recipes. I’ve been using sucron but I’m not sure if it’s allowed on the diet plan. Where do our English cheeses, such as cheddar, fit in on the list of cheeses on the food list?

MemberI started looking at the program yesterday. My morning walk was brisk and lasted about an hour. I get some cardio by climbing hills.
I did okay until I was in the supermarket. I bought a sabotaging cookie and nibbled on some naughty pastry food on trays. Lunch and dinner were fine, I ate a .5 fresh veggie salad and a small Quinoa with protein pasta dish.
Wine is a seductive problem for me. I love drinking wine at the end of the day. A year ago I was disciplined enough to not drink wine for one month and lost ten pounds. For many years, I avoided alcohol because I lived on a small budget and could not afford to spend money on non-necessities.January 3, 2013 at 7:37 pm #4520peterellis

MemberSigned up a couple of days ago, need to loose a lot of weight but have several illnesses which I know have been brought about by my poor diet so trying to readjust, know it won’e be easy but eating every couple of hours may help. Just been reading through the guides and will hopefully make a start on the diet tomorrow. Looked at the menu planner and being a brit most of the food suggested I wouldn’t even know where to start buying or know what they look like, further research needed I think and may have to adapt the diet so I am comfortable with it ans just see what the results are.

MemberI am on day three and my skinny jeans are getting slightly roomy. My approach to the program has been to correct my “cookie monster” snack thinking and realize I need to change to healthier eating habits. Day one was not so good, day two I improved but we had to have a pizza for dinner because we both had a busy day. Flour and sugar are problems for weight gain and stomach fat for me. Today I have bought good dinner foods – fresh vegetables and fish. The proportions of everything I have eaten today are small and healthy. I feel proud of the small changes I have been able to make. I need to lose about 20 pounds. Writing a “food for thought” journal is helpful.
