I received my guidelines for food from my Trainer Sunday evening and to be honest I was reading it think what is this idiot talking about. How can someone with 24 years experience want me to eat like this.
So I started to research and was totally amazed by the information I found. Channel 2 had recently just done a story on this diet and the story was well worth watching.
Basically everything we have been told about Fats is wrong. Now don't get carried away. I am talking good fats here. There is a massive movement at the moment to get the food pyramid changed to represent the fact that fats should be the most consumed.
I sat back and had a think about this. I know for a fact my Grandparent and Parents ate full fat foods. Not skim or low fat. All these products are full of sugar and are highly processed. I thought about my childhood and what I got feed as a child. Again it was full fats food. And no thats not why I am in this situation.
So basically the diet as I said above is full fat. So for breaky I have bacon, eggs, mushrooms cooked in butter and avocado. Bacon is cooked in butter, eggs are cooked in butter and as I said so are the mushrooms. You can have a knob of butter in your morning coffee too. When you have meats you make sure you don't cut the fat off and lamb chops are certainly aloud (I love lamb chops). I am doing no dairy at the moment also but you can have a blob of sour cream with your meals too (yes full fat sour cream). You eat when your hungry and until you feel full.
Honestly I am still getting my head around this full fat thing. The first couple of days I did feel a little off because my
Apart from that my training sessions are going good. My good am I in pain now but it feels good also.
The downside is he really doesn't want me on duromine. He is worried he want be able to judge my progress or lack of if the duromine is covering things. I can kinda understand where he is coming from. I understand that he wants to get me through this with drugs but I just don't know. This is only my third week. I haven't seen no increase in energy or decrease in appetite so I guess I could stop taking them but again I don't know. My dr was lifting them to 40mg next month. I just don't know what to do.
Can't wait to weigh in on Sunday!!
