With week two under my best I went from 351 to 334 in just weeks and 10lbs in week two alone. There are a few thing I did this week that may have help me lose a little more and today I want to share those with you.
1. The day after my binge day made sure to eat every two hours small 4 hour body meals. I knew I would be hungry after the big day therefore to alleviate symptoms of relapse, I went this route. Likewise with my binge day being Saturday, I have no excuse to continue with the 4HB since it is Sunday and I have more free time.
2. I supplemented this week with fish oil, multivitamin, BCAA and a probiotic.
3. I took a couple cold showers and wore an ice pack on my neck before going to bed. Cold showers pretty much suck by the way.
4. I prepared thoroughly. My wife, who joined me last week, and I laid put dinner for the week. We also cooked lunches a couple day ahead to make for a fail proof week. (my wife lost 4 pounds)
5. I experimented with a lot of diferremt concoctions. This can be fun and also patience trying. *Here is a cool Guamanian recipe for a tasty sauce. In a bowl I put about a 1/4 cup soy sauce, little under 1/4 vinegar, chopped jalapeño, chopped onion, crushed red pepper to taste. Little lemon juice. I like a finer chop of both onion and jalapeño. Keep it in the fridge. Works well with some of those bland beans and meat.
6. Drank over a gallon of water each day. Only other liquid was coffee, black. I made a point to drink lots of water every chance I got. My bathroom visits have also faded from week one even with additional fluids.
This week I will add exercise. I will start with push-ups, squats, and bicycle crunches this week and add more next week. I wanted to do the diet by itself first to see the results and now that I know it will work I will move forward. My goal is to be 300 lbs by the end of February and from there I will look to lose more.
That for the most part has been my week. If you have any other recipes, recommendations to try please let me know. Good luck friends.
