Weight Loss Challenges!!

Hey y'all!

So day one of the 7 day diet was a semi-bust....

I started the day with the baked apples and then I went to work and ate a grapefruit.  By the time 10 am rolled around I felt lightheaded and nearly sick.

After taking a break I decided I needed to get just something into my stomach.  So I bought a chicken wrap.  It was decently healthy.  Lettuce, cucumber, chicken, and then some sort of mayo/caesar dressing.

Once I ate I felt a massive improvement.  The rest of the work day I ate some oranges.  Also, it happened to be the end of a hard school/work week for myself and a few colleagues and to celebrate we ended up going to a pub.  So as per the diet I am not supposed to drink anything other than water or green tea.  I had a beer and fruity shot along with nachos and wings.  

So...clearly not the best start...but on a good note I didn't overeat any of these junky foods.

Also, as a bit of a side note...I have been doing A LOT of walking (last 2 weeks).  For example, 3-4 times a week I have gone on 1 hour 45 min. walks with my dad.  I have noticed a difference even in this short amount of time.

My arms are leaner and more firm, whereas before they were beginning to sag.  Mild tonnage in the buttocks/thigh area.  Finally (and this is the weird part) I have broken out with some minor acne.

After doing some research and reading some books of nutritionists, the simple way to explain what the acne is, is this:

 -------Excess toxins stored in the fats of the body are finally being released and the only outlet is through the pores of the skin-------

So, I think it is worth the blemishes :p

Tomorrow is Day 2 and only veggies!  Fingers crossed I keep to it tomorrow.




Good night,
