Ok... I have to tell you. I am 5 3 and always weigh in at 105- 110. I love love love to eat and drink. Living life to the fullest... I will eat anything at any time of the day. I have been known to never worry about my weight..as I run and do Yoga. Let's face it I have been blessed....Worrying about food.. no way.... WELLLLLL turning 38 and twins has changed everything. This summer - I did my usual traveling, eating, drinking and being merry. Weighing in at 121.5 - I have gone up two bra sizes and look like there is a baby in my belly. So this leads me to my new adventure. The Smart for Life -Cookie Diet. I have had numerous friends do it. Has anyone done it? The cookies are organic. I just have to eat six of them and then dinner. Minus my usual "lemon" water and wine. No natural sugar- no lemons!
Two weeks- how hard can this be? So here it goes, any suggestions???
This picture above is borrowed from Hamptons and is my inspiraion!!
I have never had to worry about my weight either..., and don't seem to put any on no matter how many pints of Ben and Jerry ice creme I eat, never had kids though. I never have been on a diet plan -I'd rather just eat healthy vegis and fruit. Oh, there is one place where I lost weight..., during a three months meditation retreat, because the last meal was served at noon. No dinner!
ReplyDeleteIt doesn't sound like you have anything to worry about to begin with! But a diet of cookies, how bad could that be!
ReplyDeleteI have never been on a diet either but in prep for my daughter's wedding I am now. I am doing Weight Watchers online. It is so easy. I started 1 week ago and have lost 4 pounds. My daughter started on it in March and has lost 34 pounds. Can't argue with that. I only want to lose maybe 10 pounds. I will let you know how it goes. Hope your diet is successful!
ReplyDeleteI love the blog and love Eloise!You have 2? So jealous. Too cute. I am trying to be more active so I don't have to diet. and I have cut out the diet coke which oddly enough made me lose about 3lbs! Seriously a diet of cookies? Sounds intriguing...
ReplyDeleteI have seen that diet advertised but don't know anyone who's done it. It sounds like my kind of thing though. Great inspiration!
ReplyDeleteI just read about the cookie diet a few months ago and decided I would go on it to lose baby weight (after we get pregnant that is). I'm exactly like you and have been blessed with good jeans and long limbs. I plan on keeping it that way.
ReplyDeleteWhat do the "cookies" taste like?? I am still trying to lose about 20 lbs since the baby... who by the way is 22!! God help me!! Good thing I can laugh or I'd cry. I think I am on the edge... I have got to do something or else. I do yoga but really hate other exercise, but I am getting to it!! I am about 5'3 and weigh like 160 :-( Pray for me!!
ReplyDeleteOK... I only ate four cookies..need to eat two more. They taste better when you heat them up in the microwave. I don't know how I am going to do this for two weeks. I guess the first day is the hardest. I had two egg whites and tons of baked zucchini(sprayed with grapeseed oil). For dinner I had steamed shrimp, salad and chicken. Only suppose to have 12 ounces of protein...but a girl has to eat. How am I going to watch the Atlanta Housewives with out wine???? HELP!!
ReplyDeleteHmmmmmmmm. That sounds tough. Definitely interested to see how it works out!
ReplyDeleteI'm doing the bee pollen thing- so far so good- cut out the caffeine and sugar and htis keeps me 'awake' during the day- and if you eat fatty foods or too many carbs it acts as a 'flusher'- if you know what i mean :)
ReplyDeleteI am the same size as you (5'3") and usually weigh about 105...I have creeped up to about 110 and then I started juicing. It is really healthy and it helps. I juice every morning in lieu of breakfast. Then I still eat what I want the rest of the day...it works.
