Flat Belly Diet

Alright friends.

I'm back from a short hiatus. Work has been crazy. Life has been crazy. I got sick. And now I'm feeling a little bit better.

Being sick kinda made me think about why I get sick. Lack of vitamins maybe? (I don't think Vitamin Water can help me out there? Anyhow, I think it's going to all come down to nutrition. 

I borrowed this book called the 'Flat Belly Diet' by Liz Vaccariello (Editor-In-Chief of Prevention) and Cynthia Sass. Now, I haven't read it all the way through yet, but I get the gist. And once I get some more time to blog (like blog proper) I will be giving all the details of the 'diet'. 

So the first part of the diet is a 4-day detox to jump start and ANTI-BLOAT your GI tract (gastrointestinal tract) so that it's better prepared for the diet to come.

Part of the diet is that you have to keep a food journal after each meal and write down your thoughts/feelings etc. Guess where I'll being doing that?! Yup. Right here on this blog.

I will be shopping for the groceries needed for the 4-day anti-bloat tomorrow after work and hopefully will be able to get time to blog everyday about the diet. Apparently you can lose up to 7lbs (3kg) in just 4 days because of the anti-bloating thing! 

Also, I hope to report that I'll be back in the gym by Thursday! Almost one and a half weeks of no gym! The hole in my pocket has been burned and I am seriously not going to let anything get in my way now. It's almost FEBRUARY and I need to account for my Resolutions 2011!!

I'm off now to create the grocery list for the 4-day detox. 

Peace lovies.

Til the next post!
