Is anyone doing this? I just got the book this week at the library. You get to eat every three hours- all three meals and I think two or three snacks. There are 'freebie items you get to have freely. You get to have regular everyday food, even takeout. They offer menus or you can put together your own. It's super easy and uncomplicated. I have been trying this way of eating informally, watching portions and the types of food, and I must say I feel more comfortable. The book says to not forget to eat and it's true that it's easy to forget! I plan to start this program formally next week. The book is THe Three Hour Diet by Jorge Cruise. He is a cutie!!!! Thevirtualvine has a group following this and you can join their discussion group if you want.
:shock: That would require me to have a--dare I say it--schedule.....I think I feel defeated already..... :lol: I've lost about 35lbs over the last year...slowly...and just becuase I prayed for the Lord to change how I used food. My whole family is trimmer for it! This is a side note, but anybody ever get annoyed how guys can pack on weight but still have skinny legs? What is up with that? Oh, well, I guess it is a trade off for the pot belly, huh.
Sounds intriguing! I think there is something to the eating every 3-4 hrs. I did that when I had gestational diabetes and I got so thin (other than my belly). They put me on a restricted diet due to the high blood sugar levels. I didn't have any more problems once on the diet. My face, legs and fingers were so skinny. I try to eat something every few hours still now. I just don't always eat the appropriate things. I may have to look at that book. I like having choices and not having to "think" up things to eat.
Oh girl, that is so true! My husband has chicken legs and a tiny rear end...and then the pot belly! I don't condsider myself "overweight", but it sucks that he can look like that and not think anything of it. If I gain a couple pounds I gasp and break out the 8 minute abs workout video!!!
:lol: :lol: :lol: ...I can gain a couple pounds if I smell junk food! Glad I don't own one of those ab tapes! Besides, I don't think the good Lord gave me abs...if He did, I've never seen them.... :wink:
