I have always been very skeptical of any “fat burner” in the past, so I had very low expectations for this.  I can drink all the caffeene in the world as a bed-time snack and sleep like a baby.  So, I couldn’t imagine anything having an affect on me.

The first day, I figured out quickly, that I had to moderate my dosage!  The first day, I took two pills about 7 hours before I wanted to go to sleep…. I was up all night!  I was awake and wired all night!  Didn’t even consider trying to go to sleep!  This is the first product that I could tell worked.

It is tough to say if I lost any weight because of it, but when taking it, I felt great and wide awake, so it must by hyping me up.  I got much more work done than usual and just felt good.  I continued taking one pill 3 times per day before meals.

I would/will purchase Fyre again.  Despite helping me lose weight, it just made me feel wide awake.  It wasn’t a bad or jittery feeling, just a revitalized type of feeling.

Fyre is for sale on the Boosters4Health site.  You can use coupon code: MH3090 to get 40% off of your purchase on that site.

It is relatively inexpensive, with the 40% off, compared to other thermogenic products and I can verify that it works!  Give it a try and let me know what you think!

Well… Not a lot to say this week.  The video pretty much sums it up:
Do normal things and you get normal results.  Time to stop being normal!

There is no way I could stick with a diet if I couldn’t still eat foods that taste good and eat a variety of foods.  Especially in the beginning, I have stuck to 45% protein, 35% carbs, and 20% fats in each meal.  My daily total of calories started at 2300 and has slowly dropped to around 1800-1900 calories per day.

I do eat a lot of boring and bland foods, because they are quick and easy to make, but I usually have one “good” meal each day which takes a little more time and preparation.  Below, is a photo gallery of some of the “good” meals I have made.  Each one sticks pretty close to the nutritional breakdown of 45/35/20.  Some of these meals I portion out and save some for later.

I try and use any kind of sauce or dressing in moderation… something that is new to me.  Wild Thymes and San J have a wide variety of sauces that help keep my meals interesting.

I don’t have any photos of my breakfasts, because those are usually the boring ones.  I usually have 2 whole eggs, 4 egg whites, a red potato(or brown rice), and some vegetables(onions and green peppers).

You will even see some fried chicken!  Believe it or not, with the chicken, corn meal, eggs, and olive oil, the nutritional facts are pretty much perfect.  I may be a little over on the oil sometime, but I am usually lacking in my fats each day.

No, I didn’t drink the Redbridge beer… that was only put there for the effect.

Diets don’t always consist of boring foods!

2 Quick Points:

Start you diet after your temptation days! I started my diet on a Friday(just because Jan 1st fell on a Monday). Never again! After I weigh in on a Friday morning and see that I have lost weight, I subconsciously think that I can cheat over the weekend, since I have seven more days to make up for it. For example, I weighed in last Friday at 201. On Tuesday, I was 206! Now, the whole week, I am fighting just to get back to 201 and then praying that I am slightly lower by Friday morning. I hate this and am sick and tired of it. No more! I am now treating every day like I day I have to weigh in.

Treat every day as if you are getting on the scale that next morning!  No cheat meals, no big portions, no more “it will be OK by Friday.”  I realize weight will fluctuate a little every day, but I’m not allowing it to do so more than a pound or two.  Cardio every day!  I used to take the weekend off of cardio and pack it into the end of the week.  Real weight loss doesn’t work like that!  Every day!  Every day!  Every day!
