I thought i would share Dr. G book. This quick start plan is just to get you started. You should only do this for 3 weeks. It is extremely important to drink water. At least 7-8 daily.
Morning- 1 cup of oatmeal
Orange or Banana
Morning snack- apple
Lunch- 1/2 cup of rice, 4 oz of chicken or 4 oz of fish, two cups of steamed veggies.
Snack orange
Dinner Fish only, 2 cups of veggies
Night snack, mixed berries
This plan is when you have a event planned and need to lose weight like 20 pounds in 3 weeks.
It is unhealthy to go cold turkey with bread/strarch. Dr. G had our family on a plan similar to this in the first few weeks. The plan will not work if you do not drink the water. If you have sugar cravings eat a few grapes or a couple pieces of frozen banana or pineapple.
This is only for 3 weeks just to jump start your metabolism. If you do not like orange or apple you may pick another piece of fruit. But do not over do it on the banana they make you retain water.
In our first month Jerry and I both lost 20 pounds!!!! Patience lost 9 pounds.
