Dr. Ian's Extreme FAT Smash Diet

Dr. Ian's 50 million pound challenge, this will be my next step if his book works for me...I bought Dr. Ian's book " Extreme FAT Smash Diet" in 2007 but never followed it - the book says 12 pounds in 3 weeks - so I am putting it to the test and with extreme dedication. There are 3 cycles = 1 rotation = 3 weeks


Beginning weight = 182 pounds (4 pounds a week)


CYCLE ONE

Day 1 (Feb 9, 2009)

Meals

Breakfast
2 egg whites or 1/2 coup of egg beaters or 1 whole egg (cooked with light oil or butter spray)

1 cup of sliced fresh fruit (no bananas/watermelon/pineapple). You might want to mix it for a variety of taste. You can find fresh fruit cups pre-made at the grocery store.

1 small salad (veggies only) with 3 tablespoons of low-fat or fat-free dressing

Meal #4
1/2cup of beans, lentils, or chickpeas
2 servings of vegetables.

EXERCISE
55 minutes of Cardio... try doing 2 different exercises to comprise the 55 mins.

I have to say that I really pushed myself in the exercise routin - I was in pain all night - I actually worked out for 65 mins.. I guess NO PAIN NO GAIN RIGHT!!

Everyday I will post the meal and exercise plan as per Dr. Ian's book....I skipped the AM work-out this morning - was too sore and tired just could not get out of bed... have no fear I am off to the gym to put in another 60 mins of pain and suffering... might do the stationary bike to warm up for about 10 mins.. then treadmill 30 mins and elypitical for another 30 mins.
