ACAI DIET END OF WEEK ONE


OMGoodness!!!!  My weight, as people know, has been an issue for a while now.  I have therefore decided to give the Acai Diet a try and am at the end of week one with amazing results.

I take 2 Acai capsules per day along with 2 colon cleansing tablets per day and I have, this week, lost an incredible 5lbs.  I did walk twice for 1 hour each time and have did at least half an hour on Just Dance on the Wii Fit also this week but the results are still incredible.

I researched this very well prior to ordering my tablets and was very sceptical but these tablets do exactly what they say on the box.  They manage to curb your appetite an example being tonight when I ate pasta and garlic bread.  I had given myself a medium portion but could only eat half before feeling completely full.  Given that I have only had one weetabix and a cuppa soup today that is incredible.

I also exercised for 40 minutes today on the Wii Just Dance 2 which burns around 300 calories.

I will keep a weekly diary on how my weight loss is going but so far so good.  Word of caution though - do not take them at night as they will keep you awake.  I feel like a whippet during the day due to the energy which the Acai give you.  Truly an amazing diet - so far!!!!!

OVERWEIGHT

My weight is such a major issue just now.  It is fluctuating constantly and it is not helping my mood.

I am trying my hardest to keep active, moving and exercise as hard as I possibly can but I just cannot seem to keep the weight going down.  It is kinda like bipolar my weight - it bounces from one extreme to the other!!! 

I cannot blame it on medication as I am off the mood stabiliser - which is not helping my mood nor my weight!  I have also lowered my anti depressant by 75mg which is not helping either!  I see my psychiatrist on Thursday so will have to wait and see what he says.

I guess all I can keep doing just now is keep the motivation of exercising up and do it EVERY day and also keep an eye on what I am eating and drinking - I reckon that 2 bottles of wine at the weekend were definitely not good when I am dieting!

FREEDOM




Okay, so I am prone to doing things differently at times that I admit but this latest idea really has cheered me up and I am only "into" day one!

I felt there was too much going on in my daily life and felt a real urge to step away from people both in the flesh and online and have, quite simply, ME TIME!!!  I have even deactivated my Facebook Account (shock, horror - to some people it really is SHOCK, HORROR).  I will of course come back to Facebook but only when I feel like it.

I do not have the temptation to sit at my computer and watch as status's are updated or even to update my own status.  My house is always clean but having the extra time on my hands has left my main bathroom (the first room I tackled) absolutely gleaming - see what you can do without being attached to Facebook.

Unfortunately some people are taking it very personally that I have chosen not to communicate at present but hey, that aint my fault.  I do not have to justify my life to anyone. 

So today I enjoyed a slow walk in the sunshine due to my ankle hurting and a lovely Thai lunch with a wonderful friend.  I really enjoyed being FREE today !!!!
