This challenge is a weekly fat-loss training plan which consists of 3 fat-cutting resistance training routines that target different muscle groups ...
Thanks for your encouragement!
i've probably only lost another 2 lbs since my first 4 week check in. I feel different tho, and some clothes are feeling looser. I am still on the...
Re: For all the women out there on SCD--period weight
Oh Boy! Aunt Flo can be such a B****!!!! I do hold weight for two weeks, the week before and the week of. But then, as I approach my last day on my P, I go back to pre-cheat weight and then begin...
Re: This breakfast shake SAVED me from quitting!
This combo seems barfy - but maybe it all blends well together. The basic idea is great, I would probably hold off on the ginger/mint/beans/chard with the coffee and chocolate.
Chocolate milkshake Waffles with choc chips and whip cream BROWNIE Sundae with hot fudge sauce!!
I love that answer! Thank you!!
Re: Week 65 Results - Ooops! Forgot to post this last week!
Amazed, yet again! You keep going. I love it! I would love to hear about your current workout routine. Can you share? Thanks and great job
Re: peanuts??? nuts?
I know that people say to avoid peanuts, but I have used them as a snack on occasion. By snack I mean a small handful, like 1/8 of a cup. Just to get over a hump between lunch and dinner. This h...
Re: SCD - Day 1
Food looks pretty clean to me. Nice job That's more than 3 liters of water, I would say it's plenty. If you are so stuffed by dinner, don't hesitate to leave the legumes out of that meal. Some ...
Re: New to SCD: Day 2
I think it's great that you are logging your food for each day and being honest about your cheats. I did that in the myfitnesspal app for the first 3-4 weeks, cheats and all! At first I did the fe...
Re: Watermelon Only!
Watermelon is a fruit, and quite high in fructose. It is not a SCD approved food. Is this the end of the world? No. Just jump back on track and save that for cheat day only next time.
Re: Why many here are wrong about cheese....and why they are right
True. I believe in the book though, Tim mentions that many people experience a high insulinemic response when consuming most dairy - cheese included. This is the main reason why he suggest avoidin...
Re: Does diet soft drinks increase insulin response?
If yo really like soda but realize that it's imperative to kick the habit, I suggest La Croix seltzer water. It's naturally flavored but has zero sodium, calories, sweeteners etc. It's the best re...
Re: Almond "Flour" ???
Yep! I baked mine, though. It was good enough - not the most delicious thing I have ever eaten in the world. Pan frying, not deep frying, would be tastier. I had a hard time figuring out what the ...
OH! OK. When I heard "tortilla", I immediately thought a corn or wheat wrap for your eggs. I think maybe just using 1/4 cup beans in you...
Re: El Pollo Loco - Skinless Breast Meal for SCD
I miss the crazy chicken they dont have them here in texas
Re: An alternative to Chipotle...
I'm in Texas ( completely unrelated, I worked at Whole Foods for 7 years, that was years ago now) We have Freebirds Burrito here - they have in NorCal too. I like their food much better - it's the...
If I may interject here; my personal belief about fat is that is does not make you fat. As long as it is from healthy sources such as nuts/animal ...
Re: Female SCDieters slower to reacte than Men?
Hi. I am a female, 33 y/old and also 5'8. However, I started at 220 and I do not even think I want to be 130 lbs. I am med frame. My BF% is about 10-15% higher than I would like. My point is tha...
Re: Holy Shh... first week losses
It sounds amazing! And it is reasonable to lose very quickly at first. It won't be like that forever, but keep going and you will see huge changes. Are you taking before and after photos? I did an...
Re: Dark Chocolate
It has sugar. Truthfully, if you ate one square one night during the week, it's not going to cause some huge weight gain. Hell, you may still lose weight the next morning. I am guessing it would...
Yolk bad? I hardly think so. I'm not a doctor or a nutritionist, but i believe in the nutritional power of eggs. I prefer organic as they are high...
Re: Eggs only breakfast
Based on the info on THIS SITE one egg white is about 4g. So your egg whites total 16g. Add one whole egg at 6g and you are right at 22g. I think Tim states 20g in the AM, but common consensus her...
Re: After 4 weeks..
That's such great progress! Way to go! I just passed my 4 weeks on Sunday, I blogged about it here if you are interested LSS:12 lbs - 10 inches where it "matters" and TONS of energy. I...
Re: Will these meals work?
Hi Laurelin, It looks pretty good, however, I don't see enough protein in your breakfast. One egg and on strip of bacon will barely get you 8g of protein. The brussel sprouts might add another 2...
Vegetables don't have to be boring!
Today i roasted some brussel sprouts and when done added an awesome butter sauce to them. Here is the idea for that and it can be used on all types of veggies to change them up a bit. In a small ...
Re: Low Hanging SCD Fruit (Don't eat it!)
The easiest way to follow this plan is to be prepared! I first cleared out the crap from my kitchen. That is a must, because in a moment of weakness, you don't have the junk food to reach for. S...
I have seen some say we can have squash and some say we cannot. I don't eat it daily. On days I did eat it, I saw a weight loss on scale the next ...
Re: Women and the 4 Hour Body
YES! It does work. 4 wks - 12 lbs - 5 inches off my waist to sat the least. I detailed my progress in this Blog Post
Re: have decided
I think that is a great decision! Welcome aboard, and best of luck to you!
Re: Week 64 Results
Great job! So awesome to see your results. It is motivating! I cannot wait until I am THAT close to my goal! Woo Hoo!
Week 4 Results Are In!
Today is the cheat day of my 4th week and I am writing this as I am eating blueberry blintzes with sour cream on top - yummy! I want to share my results because I feel they are great and I am real...
Re: Why is cheese not allowed?
According to the book, research suggest that milk products cause high insulinemic response to the body, comparable to eating white bread. Basically, that amounts to blood sugar spikes which is wha...
Re: Impact of coffee on weightloss
I drink at least two cups of coffee a day, no sweetener and with heavy cream. I do not feel that it has impacted me in a negative way. Having said that, I have not gone a week without to see if my...
Just a friendly little reminder...
I am coming up on my 4 week mark on SCD. I have been tracking weight/BF/Inches and photos. I plan to do a final weigh in for the week on Sun AM - my FREE DAY!! My scale number is lower than whe...
Go Beyond the Kettlebell Swing
So you read the book, got the kettlebell, and did the swing over a thousand times by now. As fun as it is, it's probably about time you expanded yo...
Re: Screwups, how bad are they?
I agree that you should relax and not beat yourself up. Too many diets fail because people take one misstep and then throw the baby out with the bathwater. If you think you made a mistake, just ...
Re: I am IN my skinny jeans
That's so great!! Mine are hanging on my closet door and I stare lovingly at them every night before I go to bed. Soon enough I am going to be wearing mine. So happy for you!
Re: cucumber salad
I made a similar salad yesterday. I wouldn't eat too much or even everyday as the tomatoes are a "in moderation" food. But a little bit to accompany your meal shouldn't be so bad.
Re: Poke Salad and eggs
It has all the ingredients for a great high protein and filling breakfast. I don't see anything wrong with that. I've read that poke is poisonous anyway, so spinach is a good alternative.
Re: The championship rounds. (Or, "Why you should give SCD at least a month"))
Love it! I am into my 4th week and this post made me smile! Thank you for the encouragement. I plan to post my 4 week results very soon - after I get the data on cheat day morning. This lifest...
