Hello Family and Friends! Each of you have inquired about (or I volunteered) information concerning my recent quest to shed 20 lbs. So far I am down 12 and EXTREMELY EXCITED! I wanted to start a support group (via email and phone) with those of you that would like to begin the journey as well. It won't be easy, but we can definitely do this together. I have "copied and pasted" a copy of my plan... please email me if you are interested and I will continue to email updates on recipes and recent weight loss. I will also schedule group work outs and "delectable delight days" were we will get together and cook up new healthy recipes...
Will you join the...
Super Sexy Slim Down Challenge!!!
As I embark on my journey to a healthier body, mind and spirit, I have developed a way to aid me to my destination (I will write about the physical part now). The formula to loose weight includes good nutrition plus exercise; often times the exercise is the easy part. Many are then faced with the question, “What will I eat?” About two months ago I was faced with that same question…
Here’s my answer…
Please note that you should have at least one hour of physical activity three to four times a week. Cardio (any activity that gets your heart pumping) is the perfect place to start.
The meal plan below is a sample of what I have done (it has aided me in loosing over 12 lbs. in a one and a half month period). Please fill free to substitute your own meal replacement (I chose Slim Fast… do what works best for you). Also know that your “one meal” a day does not have to be dinner… pick the best time for you and supplement during the other two meal times.
DRINK PLENTY OF WATER (Try at least a GALLON A Day)
Breakfast: 1 Slim Fast Shake (ready to drink)
Snack1: 1 cup of fat free yogurt
Snack2: Raw Veggies (Baby Carrots/Celery)
WORKOUT- I usually work out for an hour combining cardio and weight training
Lunch: 1 Protein Shake (I use Mix1)
Snack3: A Rice Cake/A Few Yogurt Covered Pretzels/Fruit (I pick one to snack on)
Dinner: A Sensible Meal (ex. Soup/Salad/Baked Fish/Chicken and a Veggie)
Snack 4: Jello/Pretzels/Fruit (I pick one)

SLEEP!
Please base the times between snacks solely on your hunger… only eat when your BODY (not mind) tells you to!
Note that this is the particular plan that I follow… I eat about four HEALTHY snacks a day, because I do get hungry and I dare not starve myself! As long as you make healthy choices about what you eat and how much, combined with exercise, you will see a difference in your body.
Healthy Weight Loss is about 2 to 3 pounds weekly.
Feel free to call or email me anytime for support… I am here! I will probably be calling/emailing you too!
Thanks for your time.
