I'm up to a 36 waist - thanks to Del Taco and a few others. As well as eating pretty poorly over the last year, or so.
I'm on a strict regimen now and doing a three week diet and then merging it into a new way of life. I have a history of eating well (normally) - but, again; have been quite clumsy over the past year or so.
My plan is to limit myself to 1100 calories a day the first week, then up to 1200 the second week, and then stay on or around 1500 calories as the norm, with one cheat day per week.
After the third week - I'll get back into some sort of exercise, which too will be part of the new 'way of life'
In this thread I'd like to discuss food ideas for assisting myself (& others) with weight loss.
Since Monday I've not gone above 1100 calories/daily - I have eaten oatmeal, oranges, bananas, hard-boiled eggs and in closing, in the evening - I'll eat one of the Chick Fil A Spicy, grilled chicken wraps w/o dressing (350 cals)
I'm open to ideas - but the goal is - finding items that are a little less common and more creative.
Please assist at your leisure - anyone else need assistance or interested in jumping aboard, I welcome it.

LOL... OK. But it's true. "Toxins" is just a misused word used for marketing purposes to raise the price of normal juice. If you wanna lose weight by shitting liquid, then it'll help you do that. But the detox part is just marketing nonsense. Don't underestimate your liver and kidneys. [Reply]

I don't see the point though. "Cleanses" don't remove "toxins" and it's a shit way to try to lose weight.
You don't have to be mean to make your point - let's work on that. Try again - only 'nicely'

Punny.
And yeah, "cleaning out toxins" is a total scam, outside of the fact that you'll lose weight due to the large calorie deficit.... but, in that case you could just "cleanse" yourself with 500 calories of chocolate per day and watch the pounds fall off. [Reply]
