Zotrim Blog – My Diet Diary

Hello Ladies,

Almost a week now! Wow that went fast!

Guess the good news… I’m a loser! I’m talking about weight of course 🙂

I lost 3 pounds already in 6 days! I’m over the moon.

I know the first days the pounds go down fast and it may be only water loss but still…I’m very impressed by this product. I don’t know if my mind is playing tricks on me but I already feel looser in my pants.

I take 2 tablets with a glass of cold water about 5 minutes before each meals, 3 times a day. I’ve tried to do sensible choices of food but I must say I did not go overboard. And I didn’t exercise as much as I should. So I think Zotrim was responsible of 80% of my weight loss.

What I did tough is make better food choices. For example, I choose to have a side salad instead of a potato. Or if I crave potato, I choose a red variety. Because it’s more tasty than white potato, you don’t need to put greasy fillings or butter on top.

Here is an example of a typical day of my food journal during the week:

Breakfast: Peanut butter and Jelly toasts (2) on whole-wheat bread with a coffee (with Splenda)

Mid-Morning break: A fruit or a yogurt

Lunch: Sandwich with a bottle of water. I love the Subway’s 6mg of fat or less sandwiches. My favorites are roast beef, turkey breast or chicken terriyaki. I ask without cheese and mustard instead of mayo. If I’m really hungry, I add oven-baked chips, carrot and celery sticks or grapes I bring from home. If I feel like giving myself a treat, I may drink a diet cola but I try not to drink sodas every day.

Mid-Afternoon break: I usually crave something sweet at this time of day so I pass very quickly in front of the vending machine to resist the temptation. But I must say that I have less cravings since I’ve started taking Zotrim. I may have a cappuccino with a home-baked muffin or dry cranberries and raisins. Finding sweet things that are not too damaging for the waist line is tricky, but I have find good food choices that I will share with you as we go along with this Zotrim diet blog.

Supper:I usually eat a piece of chicken (about 5 ounces) with a little bit of BBQ sauce to give a little pizzazzz, veggies and brown rice. I used to hate brown rice, but it finally grew on me. It has a little nutty flavor that I now enjoy. I finish my supper with a tea instead of a dessert. It has little or no calorie, it’s comforting and makes you digest better.

Healthy snack in front of the tv: I must admit, I can’t watch my tv series without eating something. Again, I tried to find healthy snacks instead of ice cream or chips. Instead, I have popcorn with no butter, you know the 100 calories pack. It’s not the best popcorn out there but hey…it’s only a few calories. Or I have Edaname. It comes from Japan and it’s soy bean in the pod. It’s delicious and packed with good protein! I buy my Edaname in individual sized portion in the frozen section at my local Costco.

As you can see, I try to eat a little less, but more often during the day. I heard it’s good for people who gets cravings like I do/did.

Take care

Katie
