Hello Friends! And Happy Monday!
Can you believe Thanksgiving is only a little over a week away? Time to put on my game face, kids. Time to get Skinny Minnie :)
Once upon a time, my lovely friend Shan provided me with this pretty awesome diet plan. It's not drinking maple syrup, eating cookies all day, or living off pinto beans. Actually it's far from any of that. It honestly boils down to eating healthy, really healthy, for 10 days straight. (and no, I'm not living off cabbage, either, lol)
So, I don't know if you have seen the picture below, but I honestly believe in it 1,000%. And, it just so happens that it aligns very much with my diet for the next few days.
I truely believe, if you eat healthy, then you don't have to spend 70 hours at the gym (which works perfect for me this week, b/c I have a lot of baking to do.) I do actually eat pretty healthy most days. I watch calories, and try not to go too crazy. There are some days when I love sugar, and then I get to visit the gym :) BUT I like to keep those days to a minimum, lol.
So, with that being said, I wanted to share my progess. I actually started this on Sunday, so I do have a bit of progress to share already. And, what is also great is, since it's posted, I'm accountable.... :)
Day 1 (11/12/12 A.M.): Down 1 lb
Day 2 (11/13/12 A.M.): Down 2 lbs
Day 3 (11/14/12 A.M.): Down 0.6 lb
Day 4 (11/15/12 A.M.): Down 1 lb
Day 5 (11/16/12 A.M.): Down 0.6 lb
Day 6:(11/17/12 A.M.): Up 0.2 (consider this a win, yesterday was thanksgiving pot luck at work. Anytime you can escape Thanksgiving with only 0.2 I consider a win)
Day 7: (11/18/12 A.M.): Up 0.8 (uh...yeah...bad Jenna....bad bad Jenna :) )
Day 8: (11/19/12 A.M.): Up 0.2 (seeing a trend? )
Day 9: (11/20/12 A.M.): No change
Day 10: (11/21/12 A.M.): Up 0.2 (ugh, defeat...
Total-to-date: Down 3.8 lbs (honestly not bad, but I had a two day patch where I was definitely slacking. The key to this...is plan ahead...if not you will end up like day 7)
(I'll update this post daily with my new numbers)
PS. For those of you thinking this is crazy and it will come back the moment I go back to eating normal, it actually works pretty well, and you don't gain 10 lbs, on day 11. However, if on Day 11, you hit up every item on the McDonalds dollar menu, I'm sure it would. lol So I guess the success with this diet would depend on how health you choose to be once you are complete :)
Here's to a great Tuesday weigh-in!
Rock chalk,
