I count calories and try to have 3 meals and a snack

I avoid alcohol I don't cheat on my diet for no reason!

I still eat good on holidays, it's ok to celebrate and have a special meal with family because it feeds the soul too ❤️

I try to eat more fresh veggies and fruit overall

I do dry brush, stretching and exercise gently first thing in the morning

I get more exercise through the day and try to meet a step goal

I focus on non scale victory and find a new reason to be grateful for everything I have now

I take before and after pictures and I weigh myself every day

I have a goal and a date to achieve it

*And that is how I am going to make it happen. Good luck and healthy gains to everyone who reads and with your journey too!**

Yuk, bugar lagi yuk!

Mocktail tonic- this is more herbal, bitter and a good gin and tonic or vodka tonic substitute.

diet tonic water , salt, lime, a splash of kombucha (plain flavor or ginger is best). Optional: a few drops of passion flower extract for a nootropic boost.

Jelly bubbles - this is a refreshing substitute for bubble tea.

Lol I cheated omg.... but at least it wasn't over eating as I still ate less than maintenance calories but I ate food besides the shakes due to extreme period fatigue.

Thankfully, Im all out of other food so basically I can't even cheat again! Haha that's a good tip: fucking don't attempt this until you have an empty kitchen!

Anyway, today I'm back on it, honestly I love the shake it tastes like cake batter. I'm anticipating the diet is going to be easier this next week due to my hormones, my first cycle week I'm never hungry. I was going to begin phase 2 of the Almased plan on 5/1 but it's going to be 5/3 to make up.

Plan is to drink 3x smoothie per day and work out daily for 14 days

Recipe:

6oz water, 6oz almond milk

50g Almased powder

5g MCT oil

5g sugar free syrup or Monk fruit sugar optional 

1 cup of vegetable or chicken broth at dinner time

1-2 diet sodas, fizzy water plain tea and black coffee OK

No other foods, flavorings or alcohol allowed

Work outs

After waking, take a morning walk and use vibro plate and stretch 15-30mins

Evening gym 10 mins bike, 15-25 mins weights, 20mins stairs (or etc cardio)

Today is day 2! Day 1 was great and I followed the plan to the letter. I was not hungry at all and I'm feeling less bloated already. I took a few before pictures and damn it's really motivating to see how bad I've gotten.

Thankfully the shake is really good, I'm actually craving it already, it just feels so nutritious and wholesome. Almased gets some bad reviews but if you use one of those hand blenders people do ice coffee foam with then it's so creamy and not at all gritty. It kinda tastes like cake batter, lol.

I also started my period yesterday and the cravings are non-existent tbh I feel like it's because of the shake since I usually NEED chocolate and junk food to feel better from cramps and stuff.
