Since we have reached a big milestone in our weight loss journey–losing 200 pounds together—we are getting a lot of questions about our supplement, fasting, and eating protocols. And I am thrilled to pass it along!

(I’m giddy over reaching this goal—can’t imagine how cray cray I’m going to be when we reach Minus 210 or Minus 230 Pound Pair!!!)

So I had lost 50 pounds over many years (and kept it off—that is important!).
But over the past three years, we have lost 150 of the 200 pounds together. (His weight loss total is 105 pounds; mine is 97 pounds!)

And while Intermittent Fasting has been an important piece of our weight loss puzzle, it is one of three biggies….

1) IF

2) Plant-based supplementation (i.e getting a healthy gut, reducing inflammation, balancing blood sugar, and more!)

3) Habits (food habits, exercise, and much more—all the little things!)

So to give the full picture, I have two videos for you:

1) A short version

2) A long version

And a full outline for both! So watch one or both of the videos (scroll all the way down!) and email me or message me with questions. I would love to help you create your perfect “weight loss storm”!

C. Our Food Regiment

1. First meal—1:00 or 2:00 in the afternoon

a. REAL
b. Ray’s pie plate of low carb veggies, Parm cheese, horseradish, salsa, salad, etc. Possibly a piece of fruit
c. Donna—at least 3 fibrous/watery foods from this list: Ceasar salad, crispy air fried chicken salad, grilled chicken salad, green beans, green beans/potatoes, watermelon, pork and beans, chili beans, baked potato, apple with peeling, banana, corn, sprouted toast, sprouted sandwich, sprouted pb toast

c. Donna—meat and potato; healthy dessert/fruit or small serving of non healthy dessert
d. 80% of our meals are like these

i. I plan what I’m eating that day the night before or the morning of
ii. We plan for Chick Filet or pizza delivery or restaurant meals, birthday cake, ice cream out, etc., so that they do not exceed 20% of our weekly intake

 

D. Summary

a. Every area—fitness, nutrition, weight management, supplementation, productivity, home businesses, entrepreneurship—is all based on consistency
b. All areas started with tiny daily habits (not grandeur changes that we couldn’t keep up)—I call these 1% Jump Ups, and I add one every week in most areas…..favorite habit book, Atomic Habits
c. Gut health takes a few months to achieve with TriPlex; working with your products (i.e. changing out M and M’s for apple) is crucial!! Take advantage of the advantages the Plexus products give you!
d. Don’t run out of Plexus—don’t give up too soon! Healing takes a while, based on how long you have eating white flour and sugar and processed foods
e. Most health is based on blood sugar balancing, gut health, and inflammation reducing—Plexus addresses all of these!
