My ex-wife lost 7 pounds in 2 weeks doing a diet she found online. After not seeing her for 4 years, it was a shock to see the change in her. She looked like her 20Something pictures she had pasted up on the walls all over the house as motivators. She stuck with the diet till all the weight was gone. It would be interesting to see if her diet plan follows the guidelines above. I think motivation is the biggest battle in weight loss. No plan will work if you aren’t motivated to go all the way to the end of the line.

I never thought that losing weight could be this easy! I have been on it about three weeks, and have lost 5 pounds—and this was done effortlessly! I tried to revamp my favorite dishes so I would not be feeling deprived! My first change was dumping the flour tacos for corn tortilla tacos. The most wonderful thing was being able to eat bread as long as it is healthy—best I could find was HEB 7 grains—delicious! I switched my Nature Valley granola bars for fruit—mostly oranges and apples, because that’s my preference! We even had a birthday celebration and I dared to eat a serving of cheesecake—still lost weight! The plan is not difficult because if I get hungry, I grab a fruit, and that satisfies me! You can even maneuver your way (somewhat) around fast food! The last time I went to MCD, I ordered a bun less pico guacamole grilled chicken, and an unsweetened tea—there are ways—you just look for them! I know it will be slow forthr weight loss, but it will be effortless and certain AND lasting! Thank You, God, for sending this message through Lisa!

In reply to theresa henderson. Agree! I am weighing in at 230 lbs these days! I did weigh 240lbs a few months ago taking care of a seriously sick child . I eat when I am emotional; and getting through each day was my goal. My child is still recovering but better overall. We are out A LOT plus hot dogs a lot. Many trips to hospital for my child plus 3 emergency visits for me for exhaustion and such. Now that we are not in crisis mode anymore , I am trying too cook real food for dinner 5;times a week. My husband does not like change but he even are my real food chocolate balls for dessert! He even said they were Good! (He loves country-fried steak and mashed potatoes and gravy.) He has since stopped commenting on the "adult food" I serve to our kids, meaning healthy. I grew up eating produce, broiled fish, baked chicken, green salads, no sweet desserts except during Easter and Valentine's Day. I didn't eat peanut butter and French fries until after we married. My husband is starting to come around to appreciate real home-cooked meals that are also healthy.

In reply to Pam.

I did a similar diet to the 100 days of real food –
EXCEPT
I only ate foods that I raised on my farm.

It was CRAZY to see how much my body & health changed by eating only foods I raised. Weightloss, energy, better sleep.

I never expected to see the changes I did. Thanks for the inspiration.
XO,
Candi

In reply to Pam. I recently finished reading the book she mentioned "in the defense of food" and it is amazing! It really drives home why we need to stop restricting certain types of food and focus on just eating real food. I haven't eaten as much butter as I do now ( which don't get me wrong is not a lot) but I'm losing weight easily! All I am doing is keeping it real!

In reply to theresa henderson. We get that but Lisa is very careful about who she works with regarding sponsors and companies. Without them, she would be unable to continue to bring you this blog.
