You already know the deal….keep on eating like crazy you ain’t gone lose a damn thang. I use MyFitnessPal and sometimes SparkPeople to track my food and beverage consumption. If you enter your information correctly, the website or app will give you a calorie allowance according to your age, weight, and height. Now here comes the hard part……staying within that allowance. It’s Monday morning…you gungho… you’ve even come up with your plan…Bam.. I’m gonna eat this, this, and this… Midday you hungry as hell….but you pumping yourself up….”I CAN DO THIS!!!... I’m eating right…hell I’m gone be fine as wine in summertime. I’m just teaching myself some discipline” You did it…you made it thru Day 1 within your allowance. Day 2 a little better…Day 3…damn they serving lunch in the office….. and man I been so deprived…surely this piece of fried chicken won’t hurt. Surely. But that piece leads to something else..sides? dessert?.. and afterwards you like hell today is blown…let me just gone enjoy and try tomorrow… or worse yet… you let that meal convince you the entire week is blown and you’ll start again next Monday.

It’ll be nice when it’s second nature and I’ve learned what to eat and still be satisfied….but for the record… that day ain’t today.

I am, however, still eating according to plan for the most part and still dropping pounds and inches. Although this is a 3-week program, I really don’t plan to stop…. since the goal is to adapt to the habits as my normal way of eating I will simply continue. I still give kudos to the program because I was at a major plateau. Although this is simply a program of portion control and timely eating… it’s presented in a way that makes it understandable in a market that is just overwhelmed with "get-skinny-fast" schemes. Tools are provided that helps you to see visually the perfect balance of nutrients to fuel and nourish your body. And you can’t beat a 30 minute but still effective workout. I’ve found that I can even “stray” and still see a drop on the scale. Friday night, I went out to eat my all-time favorite meal of Mexican fare. I almost always order a large...
