Day 5

Today is Wednesday, my 5th day on Releana. I started the diet on Monday and it would have been awful if it was not for the phentermine (appetite suppressant). I was pleased to notice that on Tuesday morning when i weighed that i had lost 3lb. Could be water weight it seems i could hardly work for running to the bathroom. Tuesday was better, a lot less trips to the ladies room. Today I weighed in again and I was down to 179 pounds! Five pounds since Friday. Water weight or not, I'll take it.

Day 2

Despite eating everything I know I won't be able to have over the next few months I still weighed in a half pound less this morning. Tomorrow the diet starts.

Day 1 Start Releana

I weighed 1st thing this morning to see if my scale matched the doc's. I weighed in a pound less, so either mine is off by a pound or that is the difference between an am weigh in and a pm weigh in. I took my first dose of releana. No bad taste, thank goodness since I have to hold it under my tongue for 1 minute. I ate like normal the rest of the day. I never felt any side effects from the releana. I took my second dose before bedtime.

186.5

I am starting this as a diary for myself for two reasons: to make myself accountable and to track my progress.

On Friday I went to the Weightloss Doctor. My baby is 8 months old, I lost 30 lbs right after she was born and since then I have put 15 back on. I am tired of the yo-yo. The doctor suggested the
excellerated program including releana, an appitite suppressant and supplements in addition to a low calorie diet. I am excited and anxious to see how it is going to go, while dreading it at the same time. So on friday I weighed 186.5lb. And I can tell you that is not muscle weight. Here's the plan:

Day 1 & 2 (Saturday and Sunday) Begin Releana, 5 drops in the morning and 5 drops in the evening (seperated by 12 hrs) Eat what ever you want, you don't start the diet until the releana is in your system good.

Days 3 until Goal Weight: Releana in am and pm follow strict releana diet.

The Diet:
Breakfast: 1 apple or orange, 1/2 grapefruit or 6 strawberries

Lunch and Dinner: 1 palm size piece of meat (chicken, no skin, no fat, Lean pork loin, lean steak, veal or non-fatty fish) and 3 1/2 oz of the following veggies green leafy vegetables, cucumbers, tomatoes, cauliflor, yellow squash, brocolli or red cabbage

snack: same as breakfast (the must be 6hrs apart)

Drinks: unlimited no calorie, no fat, no sugar. 10 glasses of water (my doctor suggest drinking it ice cold because your body burns 40 calories just heating it up to body temp, that's 400 calories a day, more that you burn in an hour of running)

And that is it. Makes me hungery just typing it. So here goes...
