Three-Day Diet

My mom actually introduced me to this diet a few years ago and every time she would start following this diet, I would always join her. I never really experienced losing 10 lbs (which this diet promised) but what I like about this diet is that at least, I can control my intake of sweets or carbohydrates. After 3 days, I feel lighter and I don't crave as much. For me, the hardest part in trying to lose weight is the initial part when I'm trying to condition myself not to overeat. So for me, I think starting off with this diet would be beneficial for me.

The 3 Day Diet meal plan:

Black coffee or tea, with 1-2 packets Sweet & Low or Equal

  1. I read about this on Lucy Torres' newspaper column. I wanted to try this but I really think I can't. Oh my...you are right. The hardest part of losing weight is conditioning one's self.
    Ok, 'might try this one of these days, will let you know when it's effective on me! Or was I successful in following it hahaha! :)
