I'm back!

It's a month before christmas the coldest darkest time of the year. People get together drink, eat and be merry. It is a wonderful time but guess what my skinny jeans (newly purchased since my 35 lbs weight loss) are feeling a little too snug for me. So before I retire these 2 pairs of pants I think it's a great time to do a Quick start! I will be doing a solid week of Phase one which is low GI veggies and ideal protein for one week solid and see what the results will be and then most likely go into phase two. So I will nip christmas in the bud as they say!:D

The goal is to give the pancreas and liver a break from producing insulin to regulate my blood sugar. This also means that my body will be going into Ketosis (fat burning as my main fuel). I will check in with you everyday to tell you what is going on and how the process is going.

The different phases are VERY IMPORTANT on the Ideal Protein program. It gently introduces sugars to the body in a slow way so that your body can readjust to producing insulin in a way as to not use the fuel as storage in the body (ADIPOSE TISSUE aka FAT).

So today I had 2 ancient grain slices of bread with banana and cashews and I will be going out with some girlfriends for diner ( I will have dessert and a cocktail). Tomorrow crispy cereal awaits!

Looking forward to checking with you :D
