I’ve gotten my hot little hands on the “Flat Belly Diet” by Prevention. I am going to follow the guidelines and adopt an eating plan around their philosophy.
Core Incentive – 3 reasons why I have chosen to go on the Flat Belly Diet. What results do you expect from the 28 day plan and how do you feel about flowing this plan.
The reason why I’ve chosen to take on board the philosophy of the flat belly diet is because of a study I read about in the December issue of the Australians Women’s Health magazine. It states not to be afraid to consume good healthy fats, carbs and protein and this is the premise of the flat belly diet – good fats, carbs and proteins. Plus the assurance that I might be able to flatten (i.e. lose belly fat) and lose weight. I came to the realisation this morning, while out on a run that I eat really well and maintain at around 1200-1300 hundred calories. My body is used to eating this amount of energy so counting calories are useless unless I cut my calories even more. So I’m going for portion control and small 5 meals a day with lots of exercise to lose my weight. I need to shock my body and that’s going to happen with a different way of eating and lots of exercise.
The 3 reasons I have chosen to go on this flat belly diet:
1. To lose weight to fit into my wedding dress by the 15th of Jan 2010.
2. To flatten my belly so I will look good in my bikini on my honeymoon
3. To look good in photos.
What results do I expect?
1. To lose 3 kilograms
2. To flatten my belly
3. To lose 10 cm from my bust
4. To lose 7 cm from my waist
5. To improve my fitness
Meal Consumption:
Breakfast 7am – Protein & Almond porridge (1/2 cup oats, 1 ½ cups water, 2 scoops vanilla protein powder, 2 egg whites & 1 Tbsp Almond spread)
Hunger before was very hungry Hunger after, full belly, I could only eat half of the porridge. It filled my up till lunch time.
Lunch 12:20pm– Honey Soy Chicken Vietnamese Salad ( a big bowl of lettuce, cucumber, carrot, bean sprout, onion, mint , chicken and peanuts with Vietnamese dressing)
Very yummy salad 
my thumbs up to it.
Hunger before was just starting to get hunger pains. Hunger after was nil. This salad filled me up.
Snack 4pm – a handful of blueberries, 2 large strawberries, a handful of cherries
Hunger before was just starting to get peckish. Hunger after, peckishness gone.
Dinner 6:30pm – 4 slices of roast beef and a plateful of roast vegetables.
Hunger before Getting hungry. Hunger afterwards very satisfied.
