This journey we are in won’t be easy!
We are fighting our own bodies.
Let’s make sure it’s a good fight and we don’t give in!!!
Everything in our daily routine (unless you are already a health nut) is causing us to gain weight, slow down and die faster!

It seams as women grow older they are put aside…
Which is a nice term to put it!

Carbohydrates nowadays are not what they used to be…
Ingredients have been added for longer shelf life!
If you have insulin resistance like I do, the approach has to be different!
While many are okay with eating high carbohydrate foods, the obesity rate in America keeps increasing….
The increase in numbers started when the food pyramid was implemented!

There will be several changes in diet while going through our journey!
Lowering carbohydrates…
Cutting carbohydrates completely…
Incorporating carbohydrates slowly…
Going on a carbohydrate cycle!

Like I said changes will come slowly!
Don’t focus to much on the scale, but how your clothes fit, how you feel and on measurements!

You will find that your memory will get better!
You won’t feel fatigued or lethargic…
Your skin will improve!
You will finally go to the bathroom!

Beneath you will find a video of the food I am preparing!
If you cook fish, make sure to eat it within 2 days…
Always chose the best quality of ingredients like organic!
Use Avocado Oil for cooking, Olive Oil for your Salads.
You can also use MCT Oil which is flavorless!

We are starting the day with intermittent fasting!
No food for 16 hours!
If your dinner is at 7pm don’t eat until 11am the next day!
You will have only 2 meals per day…
Lunch and dinner!
Each should have a nice portion of protein and some vegetables!
Do not use Corn, Leeks, Beets, Potato, or any higher starch or sugary veggies!
No fruit for now!
Great greens to add are Avocado, Asparagus, Spinach, Cabbage, Cucumber, Escarole or other Lettuce just to name a few!
Do drink about 1 Gallon of Spring Water per day!
No Alcohol whatsoever!!!!
Great Proteins are:
Fish
Chicken (all parts)
Beef
Turkey
Pork ones per Week if you can handle it
Eggs
Cheeses but keep your calories at bay
Bacon as a flavor ingredient

Starter Supplements are:
Multivitamin
Calcium Magnesium Zinc at night
Progesterone cream
Evening Primrose Oil
Chose a Thyroid Supplement that includes Kelp or Iodine
Selenium

If you are ready, let’s go!!!
Let’s get back on track!
Let’s show what we are made off!!!

See you back in a couple of days with my workout routine…
Bye, bye…
