Fast Metabolism Diet, Week 3: Day 15-21

February 24- Mar 2, 2014

Lost: .8 pounds
Why is this week so different?  Well, I decided, in the middle of the week to eat freely and enjoy foods I haven't eaten in almost 3 weeks. My weight loss plateau during week 2 and then I gained 2 pounds entering week 1. I have read reviews of the diet recommending twitching it to get more results. So I did and I lost .8 of a pound! Scroll down to see exactly what I ate every single day. I started the week at 164.6 pounds and ended it at 163.8 pounds.
  Day 1: I followed the diet today even thou I am not happy that I started the week 1 pound heavier, it gets VERY discouraging
  Day 2: I only lost .3 of a pound today, not happy and I have been thinking on not following the diet anymore, I only lost big time on week 1.
  Day 3: Today I ate A LOT of foods that aren't part of the diet and I loved it!
  Day 4: Oh what a crazy day, ate foods that are part of the diet but not on the phase
  Day 5: Oh that I loved the Red Lobster lunch & leftover dinner!! I even ate 1 biscuit!
  Day 6: Had Puerto Rican's friends over and they brought delicious PRican food, I went over board
  Day 7: I fasted for half of the day and then I enjoyed food.

Fast Metabolism Diet, Week 2: Day 8-14

February 17-23, 2014
Lost: 0 Gained: .6
Scroll down to see exactly what I ate every single day. 

I started the week at 163.0 pounds and ended at 163.6, which makes a gained of .6 pounds for the week.

  Day 1: Wow, time flew by today. I felt full the whole data and food was really good!
  Day 2: Oh no, I gained .1 I had a good day and again, I was full and satisfied the whole day.
  Day 3: Ughh, I don't think I like the turkey bacon. I need to find something that I enjoy for this phase's breakfast
  Day 4: Not really sure what is going on and why I am gaining ounces each day!
  Day 5:  I think this is a fun phase but my weight is not going down, what is going on?
  Day 6: I am having a different kind of a day today, being out and not been able to control what is going on during the day and having to eat out is a challenge. I had a hard time finding a fast place to eat that will go with the phase. I need to plan for the unexpected.
  Day 7: Cook for the in-laws and another dish for myself. I was tempted to eat brownies, popcorn, drink a coke and oh mine!!! But I conquered those cravings.

Fast Metabolism Diet, Week 1: Day 1-7

February 10-16, 2014

Lost: 5.3 pounds Scroll down to see exactly what I ate every single day. I started the week at 168.9 pounds and ended at 163.6, which makes a lost of 5.3 pounds for the week.

Day 1: I was really hungry right before lunch time, but then I thought lunch was a LOT of food. Loved all the food I tried from the book.
Day 2: Very interesting breakfast, I enjoyed it. But again I was hungry by lunch.
Day 3: Hated the breakfast! Hated it, hated it, hated it! Hate egg whites! And I didn't like the tuna-cucumber salad.  And the salad dressing tasted so bad! What an awful eating day!
Day 4: Better breakfast. This phase is a little bit hard to follow because there are no grains allowed.  Day 5: What a combination! I liked it. Oh but I am getting cramps. I feel as if I was getting sick.
Day 6: Didn't lose anything today but I got my menstruation. I am enjoying eating!
Day 7: Food was good and I can't believe how much I ate for the whole week.
