This is it, go to the store and get it all. I know it maybe a little expensive at first but remember feeling great has no price tag! This is about
your health; you will not only feel great with this diet but see visible results! I know you can do, you just need to WANT to do it….it all up to you. After
you follow these 3 weeks you will get a great idea on how your meals should look on a daily basis. This is just a sample menu if you don’t like
something exchange it for a healthy alternative, or just ask me. Also don’t think cutting the calories extremely low means the faster the weight loss,
you don’t want to fall into starvation mode, because then your body will only hold on to all fat and will also lead to over eating later on. Remember,
whole foods (very close to or in its natural state) is very low in calories so eat lots of them!
You should be shopping on a weekly basis anyway to ensure you have fresh fruits and veggies around at all times! Remember to read
over your next days meals so you can fully prepare, this may seem like a chore now but soon it will come by nature! If you do not have Tupperware
and an ice pack I suggest you get some! Keeping snacks on hand (car, office, purse) will keep you from overeating later and keep that metabolism
burning ALL DAY LONG =)
Remember a healthy weight loss is 1-2 lbs per week anything more than that is muscle and water. Stick with your work outs and you will
feel great! Also when it comes to drinking alcohol or eating out, keep it to a limit and be sure to cut back calories slightly during the day to allow for
extra calories you may not have planned on getting.
Here is three weeks worth of meals, there is 6 days planned for two weeks, you have one free day. Don’t go crazy but you can have your little
indulgences.
