Well I have been experimenting this past week with the fiber thing. I have found early on in doing the Belly Fat Cure that going #2 is a big issue for more than half of us.
Usually I take Clear Benefiber in my morning coffee and Super Seed w/water in the afternoon. This is the best way for me to be able to go #2 every day. This past week I have only taken the Super seed 2 times, just to see if I really needed it at all.
So now I am back up the 2lbs I have lost because I was not able to go #2 every day at all. So now I consider my experiment finished. I really do need both types of fiber every day. Although I do eat fiber in my food w/ veggies and other things It's really not enough.
I know many of us have this problem. I have tried many different things in the past year, and have found these 2 to be the most tolerable and effective for me.
So this morning I switched it up a bit for breakfast. I had a bowl of plain cheerios w/truvia and unsweetened Almond Breeze, 2 turkey bacons, 8 blackberries, and my coffee w/truvia, benefiber, powdered cream, and cinnamon.
The longer you do the BFC, the more you will learn not to take so seriously that little gain once in a while. Remember the way our weight went up and down that 5lbs over night all the time before. We didn't want to jump off a cliff because of it before, so why act that way now??
Just shake it off - Suck it up - And go on and just keep doing it.
Girls, I will be making videos on a regular basis, but I have to get a new camera first. Ours took a dump. So maybe in the next few days.
Thanks for listening. Lots of love to all of my BFC friends. Please leave your comments.
My thought for the day:
Discover Yourself to be a Greater Person
When you are inspired by some great purpose, some extraordinary project, all your thoughts break their bonds. Your mind transcends limitations, your consciousness expands in every direction, and you find yourself in a new, great, and wonderful world. Dormant forces, faculties and talents become alive, and you discover yourself to be a greater person by far than you ever dreamed yourself to be.
Keep on BFC ' n :-)

I have this fiber problem, so maybe I should start trying your recommendations on the benefiber or super seed. The first week, I did this diet...I had to take milk of magnesa or whatever you call that stuff, b/c I could never go. TMI...so sorry! ;) Its weird when you eat really healthy you would think there is no problem, but for me in that dept there is. With the unhealthy food, there is no problem. Okay enough about that..haha!!
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to all your future videos!! :) Thank you for all the help you have given us all. :)
Oh and this week I am down to 212.4 :)
ReplyDeleteI think it is good to experiment like that! Things change over time. I also had Benefiber and a probiotic daily and for my last 10 lbs or so I stopped with both. I was really afraid, because they helped so much I thought. But I hoped I had replaced my good gut bacteria and we getting that plus enough fiber just from my food. That was a long time ago, I'm thinking of adding back Benefiber now. Your doing great Rosalie!! These last couple of lbs will be the hardest, but you will get there.
ReplyDeleteI need to start taking benefiber on a daily basis. I have always had the #2 problem. I should also try the super seed. Maybe that is why my weight loss has stalled.
