A New Beginning

Monday 26th June 2011

Day 1

 

I'm about to start something I never got around to finishing right before I got pregnant with my 4th son 12 months ago... a new lifestyle eating plan or in other words DR COHEN'S LIFESTYLE CLINIC DIET!

According to Cohen's Lifestyle Clinic who is supporting this decision I have a medical problem and my food will become my medicine.

Therefore it must be taken at the right time and in the right doses. I will need to treat food as a fuel, my body is an engine and the food is my petrol. I will never fill up on dirt again!

Why I want you to read my change of life eating plan with you is because in the world we live in being the correct weight is so much pressure on everyone, hopefully you can avoid any money wasting surgeries, lapbanding, fat suction, face-lifts etc. You and I both know you would rather loose the fat before resorting to anything remotely to do with surgery.

You see my problem has been that I haven't blamed my excess weight on the fact that I consume too many calories or don't exercise enough.

I blame my hormones.

And happily I have found someone who agrees with me.

Cohen's Lifestyle Clinic believes that hormones have everything to answer for.

Through Dr Cohen's analysis of three of my hormones (cortisol, growth hormone, serotonin) I will be told exactly what I should eat and in exactly what amount and for how long.

I liked the idea of blaming my hormones because everyone knows that it's never my fault!

Everyone's food intake is different according to their own hormone levels but this is serious stuff.

If I put the wrong food in my mouth I will mess with the chemistry in my body that is working to rid me of my body fat.

So if there is anyone out there who has embarked on this journey, is on it or has any advice, please blog and tell me about it.

I'm starting today and apparently I won't be very nice for the next three days (my poor kids) as I detox and try to get used to my small portions as I re-set my body weight clock.
