How is everyone doing today? Day five that journey continues. I hope everyone is doing well and staying strong. I've had my breakfast and now I'm ready to SLEEP!!
Essence...Sorry I fell off the wagon. I didn't even make it through day 2. I am doing the low calorie thing now. That is one thing I never tried, and I actually like it. Where is everyone else???
Hi I'm starting the mayo clinic diet tomorrow and was wondering how you all liked it? my grandma has been on this diet since january and she's lost 50 pounds, so I'm hoping to loose the 40-50pounds i need to loose!
haha!! That would be nice!! It's actually a long story and their are stories all over the internet stating this diet didn't originate from the Mayo Clinic..
So wether it did or didn't I know this diet works. My gradma's doctor put her on this diet, she had fluid around her heart. She's been on it for 9 months and lost 50 pounds!! I'm starting tomorrow and I'm excited about it!!However I've ate like crazy all weekend!!Hope this helps you out!! If you would like the specifics of the diet please let me know!!
