If you have any medical conditions, be sure to consult your physician. The web portal http://www.marketamerica.com/allaboutunow has all the ingredients and science for transition supplements for you to share with your physician.
Getting Started
Things you should have for the fist week: Journal, List of low, med, and hi glycemic foods. Take beginning pictures front side and back view. I suggest taking the pictures in the swimsuit, or favorite outfit, that you want to fit into at the end of the 12 weeks that way you can really see the results of your hard work. Take measurements of: neck, chest, waist, belly, hips, thigh, calf, and bicep. And of course your weight. Keep all this in your journal. I highly suggest purchasing the Transitions Lifestyle system starter kit for $99.95+sh (available on my web portal, http://www.marketamerica.com/allaboutunow) because it has a daily journal(more than just a journal it includes meal plans, Low glycemic food list, exercise programs, health information, grocery list, much more), CD for support, Fat Conversion Inhibitor, Carbohydrate Absorption inhibitor and DVD Series see web port for more details, http://www.marketamerica.com/allaboutunow) You can purchase these item individually as well.
The first week is a detoxification week. It will be tough and you will need daily support so I am here for you. I need to loose 30lbs. We are all in this together. There are two ways to do the detoxification week. The first way, which I think will be the hardest, but most successful, my sister-in-law and I are going to do, it is as follows:
For first 7 days eat only vegetables, herbal tea, no more than 3 servings of fruit(each day) and 64 oz of water a day. If possible have a glass of warm lemon water before breakfast this will help you gallbladder work more efficiently. The gallbladder is responsible for fat digestion. This detoxification is to cleanse your pallet and prepare your body to desire healthy foods.
2nd way: Purchase the NutriClean 7-Day cleansing and Detoxification System (available on my web portal, http://www.marketamerica.com/allaboutunow ) and follow the directions and meal plan.
During this week you want to be relaxed. Take hot baths, treat yourself to a spa day and rest as much as you can. This week is the week you don’t have to do a lot of exercises. You are cleansing the inside and you will be a little tired the first couple of days. So enjoy it because it will be a whole new story next week.
Some things to start thinking about for week 2: Make a menu using the Low and Med glycemic foods. Plan an exercise routine. I suggest everyone post their exercise routine to help one another with ideas to keep exercise fun not mundane. Here are some things I am going to start with. 30 min of pilates routine daily. It will strengthen and tone your muscles. It is easy on the body. (I have a lot of back pain and pilates is the only exercise that relieves my pain and allows me to walk and climb stairs)You can do it anywhere anytime. I will also try to walk 2 miles at least 3 times a week. If I can’t walk because of weather then when I am talking on the phone I will walk around the house several times, (you would be amazed how far you walk if you walk while on the phone). One of my favorite thing to do is to pick 8 fun songs (no more than 3.5 minutes long) and take light weights(you can work your way to heavier, if you have never done this you might want to start with just 1lb to see how you do) for each song I will do a body muscle. (you can look up routines on line for proper techniques. For example; I will do different bicep curls for the length of one song then stretch and go onto the next muscle) My routine usually starts off with a warm up song where I will do a couple of reps of each muscle part and repeat for the length of the song. I like to start with bicep curls, than squats/lunges, shoulders, back, chest, triceps and final abs. You get an aerobic work out and you make it fun because it is music you like. Gotta love the ipod.
***Be sure to lean the proper techniques when lifting so you don’t injure yourself. The Internet has many great videos that will show you the proper techniques in lifting weights. Also check with your doctor when trying a new exercise program.
Well this should get us started! If you have any questions, Just ask and I will do my best to answer them.

Hi, I am the sister-in-law. Call me Bess.
Please join us on this adventure.
Growing up I was told I had a hollow leg & called Olive Oil in college.
My mother was right, your metabolism slows down as you age.
Why is it that the idea of a diet suddenly makes me hungry?.
I am prepared for Detox, bought out all the fruits & veggies from Giant. Plan to make a big pot of vegetable soup.
My husband's comment was cynical "Why are you starting a diet before you start your new job?" After 20 yrs of marriage, you'd think he'd know the right thing to say?!
Let me inform you, I am in throws of PMS as well and snapped "I have a week before my new job and after detox, I will be on a low GI Diet, do you know what the glycemic index is?" He said no and proceeded to walk out the room.
But when is the perfect time to diet without stress/ Never, you just jump in with some preparation & willpower & go for it!
Karene will help you! She is very positive & motivating,she really is the REAL deal! So join us for 12 weeks of learning,change & growth.
Take care & take it one day at a time!
I love your attitude! You will succeed and I am with you all the way!
Day One went well, ate veggies, 4 servings of fruit,3L of water & 3 oz of chicken. Did agency nursing at a nursing home so I didn't think about food all day.
Day two not so well have a splitting headache. Eating veggies & fruit,had a half cup of soy milk.Drank 3L of water.
Exercise, Karene you're the better woman. Cleaned the bathrooms. Then took a bath and decided I HATE my bath tub! It's a coffin. If I ever come into money, I am remodeling the bathroom with a six foot long double wide bath tub!
It will be a tough night, Scott(my husband) is recording drums.Ugh!
Broke down had 2 slices of ham & 2 slices of American cheese after breakfast. Had 2 slices of honey dew after my lemon water, and had a grapefruit half after the lunch meat. Eating broccoli & cauliflower steamed.
Didn't eat after 8pm last night.
Decided they should invent chocolate tea! Instead I bought chocolate soy milk and drank 3/4 cup last night about 100 calories
Might going out to lunch with friends. Hopefully won't be hard.
I miss my coffee!
Will shoot for a small walk with the dogs but we'll see.
Bess your are doing great! The scale proves that you are!! Try to eat just fruit and veggies for the rest of the day. It is better to have too much fruit than to eat proteins and starches. I find myself wanting sweets so I eat more fruit than the required 3 helpings a day. You only have 4 more days before we can add protein so keep that as your goal and say no to protein today! :-)
How was your day Bess? Mine went well. I was gone from 9:30-4;30 and didn't binge or cheat. I had to clean the Art Gallery so it kept my mind occupied. Mad an awesome dinner. Now I am off t my meeting at the Kingdom Hall. Wont be home till 10:00.
