My New Venture....

So I always get on these kicks about losing weight and exercising. Well I have finally committed myself to a weight loss program and as some of you might have seen my picture is in the paper every week showing what I lose week to week. On my first weigh-in I lost 7lbs and now I am on my second week. I have to weigh-in and get measured every Tuesday. I thought about posting my before picture but it was way to bad. Maybe after I am through with the diet I will get the nerve to post the before and after pictures.

So the diet I am embarking on is called Ideal Protein Weigh Loss Program.

Ideal Protein is a line of protein diet products developed by Dr Tran Tien, Chanh, a general practitioner and a doctor of nutrition, sports medicine and biology. Dr Tran Tien, Chanh has focused his career and research on nutrition, with a particular emphasis on the treatment of obesity and overweight.

This diet is hard I wont lie! Hard! But going into the second week I have found is a little easier. The hardest part for me so far is snacking. I am used to snacking throughout the day (which I know is bad) and with this diet you can not do that.

I call Roberta (which is my diet consultant) all the time and say will a small piece of chocolate hurt me and I give her a heart attack. She is great and is always there when you have any questions. Which helps tremendously! She definitely keeps me in line...as of today I have yet to cheat and for me that's great cause I am a sweet addict and you can't have any! YES I SAID IT YOU CAN NOT HAVE SWEETS!

Oh and the other bad part I have to eat VEGGIES! I know I know Flo can you imagine me eating veggies. Well I do but I pretty much live off of raw broccoli and cucumber. But hey its better that not eating veggies at all! I will keep everyone updated on my progress!

Week One

Lost 7lbs and I can't remember exactly but it was over 5 inches between my waist, chest, arm, hips & thighs.
