I’m back, folks. And – unfortunately – with no real news; still holding at a total weight loss of 9 lbs. What happened? Well, Christmas happened.
I postponed The Fresh Diet delivery on the 24th, 25th and 26th of December, reasoning that between the Turkey Fest and Leftover Turkey Fest, I would not do the diet justice. Nervous I’d put on about 5 lbs from all the holiday indulging, I had a plan:
1. Try everything. It’s Christmas! And I wasn’t about to pass up my mom’s delicious prime rib or my mother-in-law’s scrumptious cookies. However, I kept my portion sizes small and resisted the urge to go back for more – simply grazing and sampling instead of binge-eating.
2. Keep sugar in check. Simple carbs are my enemy – and unfortunately, my Achilles heel. So I made sure to load up on veggies, whole grains and protein, so that by the time I sliced into our traditional Bailey’s Irish Cream Cheesecake, I would have little room to test my willpower. (I did have a sliver; it was divine.)
So, instead of waiting for that elusive 1 pound to post a pic, I thought I’d share this photo from Christmas Eve – here’s what I look like at 135 lbs! Only 10 more to my goal!
Don’t forget you can ENTER TO WIN The Fresh Diet for 31 days!

Lena: Many congratulations…you look lovely! I am willing to wager that you may well be one of the very few women in the world that weigh the same on December 28th as they did on December 24th! It's amazing! Hats off to you and the Fresh Diet!!!!
