So i'm on day 5 of my diet today. i've lost some decent weight but i was wondering if this is normal and how i can get over it -- it seem as the week progresses, my liking for veggies has declined. I practically threw up afew times tonight, first with my soup and then again with some tomatoes. has anyone had a simular problem? or know of a way to overcome it? apparently i ahve a bad gag reflex.


argggggggg. i want to start the diet again next week but i'm thinking i may have to modify it and hope it works...

well... what veggies are you making... i can tell you what to make with them and they will taste a hell of a lot better. thats basicly all i eat so i know a few recipies :)

[Darthness]

stewed tomatoes (From a can) and your basic vegetable soup (green beans, carrots, green onions, white onions, mushrooms, celery, green bellpepper in beef broth mixed with water)

Im sure veggie-dude knows lol!


Meat is a good thing IMO. You just need to watch how much of what your eating and thats about it.

haha wait so you have been eating soup for the last 2 weeks? no wonder why you hate veggies!

if your having soup you should throw in some potatos.

i dont really know your diet or i would suggest some onion soup because it looks like you like onions. what is your diet because if its a vegetarian diet i could tell you some nice recipies.

There are a lot of ways to lose weight, but doing it drastically is going to hurt you worse than help you.

All I did to lose weight is take notes of what I normally eat during the week. Once the week was over, I looked over that list and saw what ways I could improve my eating habits. In my case it was cutting out soft drinks and making sure that I packed my own food (especially at work) instead of my other options, which was what a vending machine or restaurant would offer me. It helped that I didn't have a wife cooking for me, though, it'd be hard to give that up now.

And of course the other element is exercise, which most tend to avoid Just working around the house can give you enough exercise, though, especially if you take on a project in something related to your interests.

That's exactly what I did Jonathan. It was truly amazing how often I would drink some kind of soft drink, and eat pizza, work at a pizza place, and other junk food. All I do is drink water, and eat granola(sp) bars instead of a couple slices of pizza. It was hard to do at first, but now is easy. Also, I always wanted a snack before going to bed, now I just have a glass of water, infact that is usually what I do when I feel like a snack.

threw up afew times tonight

Ahhh, the celeb diet... Whatever goes in your mouth must come out... nice!

Haha, just kidding.... I'm not a big fan of veg. soup nor of veggies in general so I'd fail hardcore at that diet... I suggest that you find another diet that doesnt make you sick...

I definately wouldn't cut out meat. Eat as many times throughout the day as you can. At least 5 times. Small meals. And eat healthy food. Meat, fruit, vegitables and drink a lot of water. The key is small portions and knowing when to stop. You have to eat slower. Chew your food better. Give your brain a chance to acknowledge that you're full so you don't over eat.
