Friday of week 10: Belly Fat Cure

Good Day to you all.
So, you know I got my new scale and I am not that happy that I am now 8lbs heavier than before. I got on the scale this morning and I am 212.5 lbs. I said wow! I am 3.5 lbs lighter than last week. So far - the week ends for me on Sunday night.

You're probably wondering what I did different this week??

I was drinking a protein shake each day, but I stopped a few weeks ago. I also refused to put the psyllium husks in my shake, cause it made me gag. I decided this week that I would suck it up and use the psyllium husks - no matter haw yucky it is.

My husband found this whey protein powder called MRM. We get it a Henry's Market. It is on sale right now for $22.99 and it's twice as big as Jay Robb's. It is sweetened with stevia and has 1.5 carbs and 1 sugar. So I have 1 of those with the psyllium husks in it between lunch and dinner around 3-4pm every day. I have been sucking it up with a straw. It makes it go down much faster.

Also I was using the regular powdered creamer (not the sweetened kind) in my coffee in the morning. I refused to give it up cause I love the way it tastes better than liquid. But I switched to half and half this week. I really don't think it makes that much a difference - but you never know. As always - LOTS OF WATER!!

My thought for today: All that whining and bitching I did in the 3rd, 4th, 5th and 6th weeks is paying off now. If you have a lot of weight to lose like me - Don't give up!

Thanks for listening.

Keep on BFC ' n :-)

Some tips if you are having trouble

  • First make sure that you are staying under the 15/6. 15 sugars and 6 servings of carbs for the whole day. Thats no more than 5 sugars and 2 servings of carbs per meal.
  • Track all of your sugar/carbs. Add everything from your meal together and count them that way.
  • Try to stop eating whole grain carbs after 3pm.
  • Make sure you drink lots of water.
  • Count everything that you put into your mouth. Even sauces - everything , check labels.
  • Make sure that you don't eat any artificial sugars. Check labels, if it says sugar free - look in the ingredients, look for....sucralose, aspartame, saccharine in the ingredients. Those are BAD!
  • Going #2 is a big problem when a lot of people start the BFC. I have solved that problem with Clear Benefiber in my morning coffee and a scoop of Super Seed w/water in the afternoon. (you can buy the super seed on Amazon.com it is the cheapest).
  • Choose your carbs wisely. Try to pick the carbs that will give you the lowest count of carbs, sugar and calories and the most fiber.

I hope this helps.
