How Did You Do Today?

Lynda — Thu, 12 Mar 2009 13:23:00 GMT

I am an overeater, and I can overeat even the 'good food'. What has helped me keep off my weight is to recognize my trigger food, eg 'red' food (I think that is what Weight Watcher's call it).

I pains me to realize that I have to cut off sunflower seeds (with shells). I have cut down on it, but yesterday it dawned on me that I was having a withdrawal and I eat some to quench it. Today I am going cold turkey. I am really not joking. This is a big deal for me, so pray for me. I'll tell you all how my day went.

Induction phase

Hi Everybody,

I like to post my notes to my mentee so we all can learn something.

Ms. JJ, after analyzing your eating pattern from the list you gave me, i noticed that you are eating whole wheat carbs, fruits and vegetables, but you are not showing their portions or method of preparation of the proteins. I'll suggest that you start with the induction menu sample. Check out the menu section on the main page. You should be on the induction phase for a minimum os two days. the induction phase helps prepare your body for change of your eating habit. It detox your body of carbs. It takes 48hours for this carb detox. You may feel like giving up those two days. Atfer this first 48hours, you'll start feeling better about this phase. You may want to take advantage of this phase to stay on a little longer so you can lose more weight.

You should know that carbohydrate is what increases our tummy/ waistline, even if they are the good carbs. You must limit carbs good or bad. Fruits are also carbs, you must limit your intakes of fruits. You are better off eating the negative calorie fruits like grapefruits, apples, cantaulopes etc.

Let me know how long you are going to be on the induction phase so that I can design the next pase for you.

Remember that www.dietnomore.com is all about lifestyle change for permanent weight lose not diet.

I don't like to count calories.

The best menu option for someone who does not like to count calories is low carbs meal plan starting with the induction phase.

Everyone should start with an induction phase of whatever lifestyle except if you are a vegan. You eat as much protein and green leafy vegetables as you can, without counting calories. Induction phase is for a fresh start. This will detox your system from carbs so you can have better control over the desire to eat carbs.

Vegetarians can do induction phase eating fish and seafood for 2 – 3 days for a fresh start. check out the menus.
