So I am 2 weeks into the program and I have lost 13.1 Lbs and 9.25 inches!!!! It is very exciting to see the change in my body! Here are some of the benefits of the ideal protein system.
- Quick weight loss without sacrificing muscle mass
- An understanding of how food affects and is utilized by the body, including what causes fat storage
- Improved skin tone by providing the skin nutrients it needs
- Utilization of stored fat for energy usually by day 4 — fat, (along with cellulite) that contains chemical toxins
- Improved energy, appetite control and reduced cravings — usually on day 4 or 5
- Improved blood sugar, cholesterol levels and reduced blood pressure
For breakfast I had the plain omelette It was nice and fluffy. This meal keeps me full until 12 o'clock!
For lunch I had the mushroom soup and I added a cup of mushroom it was delicious. I also had the white bok choy and celery with a little salt!
For super I had the left over bok choy soup and for the protein I added soft tofu it was like a miso soup but very spicy!
For my snack I had a vanilla peanut bar probably the one thing I miss most because I would have peanut butter with an apple as a snack almost everyday so I am very happy that they have a lot of peanut butter snack!!!! I brought this snack with me for a girls night out for tea! It was lovely to hang out with my girlfriends and have a nice cup of tea out. It can hard to get out in January especially when you are changing your eating habits but well worth the laughs and great conversations!
Make sure you share with your friends the lifestyle changes so they can support you through your journey because you still want to be social. Also check out menus and make suggestions of place you feel comfortable eating with your friends. There are places that will accommodate your nutritional choices. Look for a healthy protein source and veggies, ask for the dressing on the side of your salad. You can search a lot of restaurant menu's on-line!
Have a great day!
