Verification

I wanted to verify the diet I’m following and what it entails. I am doing Bob Greene’s Best Life diet.  During the first phase you don’t change what you eat.  Instead you:

rn

1.  Stop eating 2 hours before bedtime

rn

2. take a vitamin

rn

3.  work on incorporating or upping exercise

rn

4. eat breakfast

rn

5. Drink water

rn

He believes in taking small steps.  He also has you starting to work on why you eat and what got you into this position in the first place.  The first phase only lasts four weeks.  The second phase has you work on food.  I think it’s good because it doesn’t overwhelm you at the start.  Now, I took it overboard on not changing what you eat.  I should have never picked up pop but I’m going to quit now.  I’m going to work on fixing healthier food.

i want to thank everyone again for the comments left on my journal. I really appreciate the concern. I look forward to coming on here and seeing the comments people have left me.

    That sounds like my kind of diet! I have been looking for something that starts out with little stuff like that, but never found anything. … Those are simple changes that can make a positive difference. … Maybe I should go find my vitamins?

    If it works for you, then go for it.

    I have always like Bob…

    I agree with Mary, and something I learned long ago, you have to find what “Diet” works best for you…

    BUT, it has to at some point STOP being a diet, and simply a way of life…Thats why it has to be something you can maintain without a lot of resentment or feeling deprived for the long term…Otherwise, as soon as you stop, the weight comes back…

    As long as this does that, then YAY!!! Good luck with all of it!
