Hi ladies! Hope you guys are enjoying the weather (whereever u reside) SO I havent came onto 3FC for about 2 weeks. Both weeks I gained.. I cant do it without you guys!

I think that if i have my own thread on it, ill actually get it done (held accountable hehe). I am doing a juice fast once a week, eating low carb, low cal.

Will be posting daily with my meals, progress, and hopefully some of you will join me along in my journey. Ready, set, lose!
Okay so day 1. Let me post my starting pics Took em in the bathroom.. lol

Great day today.. woke up motivated as ever. I weighed in at 184.2.. wow. So in the duration of about 3 days Ive lost almost 4 lbs. Im on my way Although thru my posts, it doesnt look like im doing anything intense, but im eating alot less, and constant and i mean CONSTANTLY moving.I drink unimaginable amounts of water and I eat >50gs of carbs. My body is heavily carb sensitive, so when I dont eat carbs, my body naturally responds to lose the weight. I truly believe that Im naturally supposed to be skinny, but carbs are holding me back. So here we go,
Breakfast- Chicken chopped salad
Lunch/Snack- Fresh green juice: 2 carrots, 1 cucumber, 1 apple, squeeze of lemon.
Snack- 1 oat n honey bar, 1 string cheese, 5 jelly beans, 1 petit choc cracker, few choco chip goldfish.
Quick note on green juice: It is SO beneficial for you, fresh, and boosts energy. I drink green juice at least 3x a week. One day its just carrot and orange (treat for me!) Rest of the days I have to add a couple green items, kale is my favorite, along with cucumber, celery, or spinach. Its so so so simple, and so refreshing.. and amount of nutrients ur consuming is crazy. Try it, it tastes AMAZING.. I mean srsly amazing, and it helps with skin, nails, etc etc and ofc weight loss/detox.
Current fav recipe: (VERY easy, minimal ingredients)
2 juicy carrots
1 cucumber
1 apple
squeeze of lemon.
If veggies/fruit is juicy, it yields alot more juice. Does depend on the juicer as well. I got mine from Walmart for $50, (PM for details) AMAZING juicer. Anyways good luck ladies, I do highly recommend juicing.

Alright guys so today looks something like this
Breakfast- yoplait light yogurt and string cheese
Lunch- About 2 ounces (yes! tiny amounts, it was literally a bite) of blackened chicken salad from whole foods, salad from whole foods salad bar which contained:
- romaine lettuce
- corn
- cucumber
- feta
- cheddar
- ranch
^ very tiny amounts of all of the above, made into a very enjoyable and palette pleasing salad. Super satisfying.
And then one square of my new obsession, PEARalmond dark chocolate.. frm whole foods
Snack- string cheese
Dinner- Never ate the steak got caught up in something. Instead I had blackened chicken salad from whole foods, another square of dark choco, and an iced coffee.
Now note, it may seem like im consuming alot, but my portions are so itty bitty.. I like to keep a variety of things to eat, but small amounts.. tht was ill never get bored.

So today-
breakfast- Jamba juice carrot smoothie.. it had carrot, banana, orange, and a energy boost.. high recommended it was delicious. in size "sixteen" aka sixteen ounces aka, small.
Lunch- 1/2 fish sandwich, 2 strips grilled chicken w/baby carrots dipped in cucumber yogurt sauce
Snacks- string cheese, one bite of apple pie, one square of dark chocolate
Dinner- 1 filet tilapia, 1 serving broccoli n cheese, 1 tbsp of tarter sauce.

okay so I did weigh myself Bc I couldn't help it.. Slave to the scale much lol. Okay so today I weighed in at 179!! So I went from high 180s to 170s in 10 days.. This mean I'm 1/3 of a way done with my challenge and I've lost a total of 9 lbs through a some what strict diet and just staying active.. One more thing that I've realized during this process is that I'm not necessarily sensitive to all carbs.. I'm more sensitive to simple carbs versus complex carbs BC when i eat fruit or fruit smoothies i still lose weight in the same manner as i did not eating any carbs so that's a good feeling..
So today looks like:
Breakfast: medium iced coffee frm McDonald's w/half a cup of Yoplait pineapple upside down yogurt
Lunch- currently sitting at whole foods, eating a salad tht consists of :
Romaine
Kale
Cucumber
Red onion
Cheddar cheese
slivered almonds
corn
Carrot shavings
Ranch
Ground pepper
sprinkle of sea salt
Dinner- 1/4 blue berry muffin, dark chocolate, salad, chicken n yogurt. yum!
Btw i hope my posts r motivating sme of you.. I cnt wait to post my pics at the end of this challenge. Happy healthy day I'll be back to post dinner.. t-21 days
