I LOST 10 POUNDS - Saved lots of money!!

I am pretty excited today!! I went to the Regina Fieldhouse and weighed myself. I weight 10 pounds LESS than when I started my project!

Only 75 pounds to go!

Here's what I'm learning about the weight loss process. It isn't quick. It requires steadfast diligence. Consistency and diligence.

I've been going to to the Northwest Leisure center and now the Fieldhouse in Regina to get a sauna each day for 25-30 minutes. As well, I am taking the time to do some weights. The sauna is recommended by the Life Force Plan website.

The Life Force Plan recommends that a person sweat (in a sauna or hot tub) for 10-20 minutes each day. This blows out toxins out of the system.

The plan also recommends that you eat only vegetables, fruits (excluding oranges), meats (except pork), water and brown rice products. This is for the first eight weeks while you get your system back into shape.

You don't get to eat breads, sugars, canned food, processed foods or anything else than what is has on its Yes Foods.

While this is not a diet blog by any means, I always have to tie what I'm doing into saving money and being money conscious.

The whole losing weight process has been fairly time consuming which doesn't allow for me spending alot of money. I can't eat at restaurants, and because I'm riding my bicycle everywhere, I don't feel like joy riding to the mall to look for frivolous items.

I tried carrying my gym bag on my bicycle and realized that I need a back stand for the bike.

I'm saving money on processed foods. I can't buy any expensive fast foods.. or gourmet foods.. everything I eat now is fresh fruits and vegetables and is hand prepared.. That is time consuming, however, It's much cheaper than buying the pre processed foods.

I'm pretty excited to have lost 10 pounds so far. Weight loss has evaded me for the last 10 years or so. It's worth the time and effort live this new lifestyle.
It's getting back to basics and I feel much better for doing it.

Ultimately in this new life style, I don't feel like I want to go out and buy frivolous things. I am spending quite a bit of time being active, cooking from scratch etc. It's taking up my time so I don't have alot of extra for other things.

If you're a few pounds over weight, I do recommend the Life Force Plan! It's not glamorous by any means, however the logic is sound. It's hard to put on weight by eating only fresh fruits and vegetables!
