I am renewing my commitment in the new year with the 21 Day Sugar Detox.



Recommended Posts

So I've been slipping lately... and by slipping I mean eating fast food, Cookies, chips.. basically everything that I'm not supposed to be eating. I haven't gained any weight (thankfully the small amount I did gain this week I lost again). These last 50 pounds are really important to me so I will be renewing my commitment to this journey in the new year. My 34th birthday is April 30th and I want to be at my goal weight by then. Also, incidentally I will be traveling to Ohio that week to be in a good friends wedding and I want to be at goal.

My partners mother gave me this book for Christmas and it is fascinating! Tons of great info. I've dabbled in Paleo before but the whole concept of eating clean is something that I think I am going to adopt as much as possible in the new year. Is anyone else renewing their commitment to good health and weight loss in 2014?

I am so right there with you!!! I too have had slips. Ok, fall flat on my face. I am not even that far out so it is even more disturbing. I seriously thought I would be more emotionally ready for the holidays than I was, plain and simple. So I too have already decided to recommit myself to the plan. I have to detox again from carbs. I am going to substantially increase my activity level and try to start working some of the dangling bits into a bit more solid mass. (ie: firming and toning) I have already told my five year old that starting the new year all the junk is gone. (she doesn't need it either) I have been very lucky I haven't gained, but I also haven't lost anything. Before the damage is done I need to nip it in the bud! Good luck and Happy New Year!

Great idea! I work out at a CrossFit gym and the owner/coach there was talking up Paleo prior to my WLS. I don't agree with all of the tenets/philosophy but at this point I am pretty convinced that there's not much of a point of having refined sugar in the diet. And so, inadvertently I'm eating Paleo now except for dairy.

So eating clean is a great goal for 2014. Keep us updated on the 21 day challenge, and if you enjoy it!

My wife eats Paleo and she has had fantastic results. I like my dairy too much to go Paleo but I do believe it can serve you well.

Everytime I do Paleo I am one of the ones who eat dairy. Not strict Paleo be any means. But if I did the 21 Day Detox I would not eat dairy but just for those 21 days.

That is my goal as well. Toning and firming up. I'm gonna get into that gym and turn it up. I heard drinking skim milk regularly (organic, of course) REALLY helps with loose skin.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
