My diet started 3/13/13, the first 2 days you do a detox, probably the hardest 2 days of the plan. You drink 4 servings of there juice during the day, and you can eat unlimited proteins and certain veggies and that's it.
For breakfast I ate 5 egg whites and some sirloin steak.....never had steak for breakfast but it wasn't to bad. I munched on cucumbers during the day. For lunch I needed grilled chicken since i hadn't had a chance to grill mine before work. I went to a local Mexican food joint hoping I could just get a side of grilled chicken and lettuce......I gave the cashier my order and got the weirdest look. Yes, all I want is grilled chicken and lettuce that is all I can have...."Would you like beans on it at least? Or some cheese? Or tomatoes or guacamole or sour cream???" No, while all that sounds very delicious I can't eat it, all I need is chicken and lettuce. So she was able to work that out for me. She still looked at me like I was crazy and said she couldn't eat like that, I looked at her and she was skinny and I thought to myself be lucky you don't have to eat like this. I tried to explain the diet and I get a look of you are crazy!
My grilled chicken on lettuce was very good...I actually ended up ordering another side of chicken to help keep me full longer.
By the time I got home from work for dinner I was hungry! Luckily my husband had grilled all my chicken for me so I ate some of that but I also made a steak and broccoli stir fry with 1 tablespoon of Teryaki. It was ok, the meat was a bit tough.
I feel it was a great day 1, can't wait for the 2 day takeoff to be over so I can have other foods!!
Day 2 has begun, again I made scrambled egg whites with steak and had my 8oz glass of take off juice. It was good, doesn't compare to bacon eggs and sausage but that is why I am here right? Since I made about a weeks worth of grilled chicken yesterday I plan to eat LOTS of chicken today. I hope the marinade was ok to use for these 2 days, it's diet 7up and soy sauce and 1 tablespoon of olive oil and I used it on 4.5 lbs of chicken, you marinate it overnight. It's very good, It actually calls for a lot more oil but I left most of it out, and you pour off all the marinade anyways so not sure how much penetrates the meat itself. Either way it leaves you with very tender and juicy chicken that I prefer to eat cold chopped up on a bed of lettuce. I am sure my day will consist of more cucumbers and of course my take off juice. But hey tomorrow is day 1 of the rapid results plan I can't wait! Also tomorrow I am getting a health screening done to check all sorts of things so hopefully the results aren't horrible.
