Okay, so last week we were on vacation and I ate everything in site on a grazing basis. This just made that number on the scales go higher and higher. So instead of cooking something specific this week I thought I would share with you a quick diet. You may have heard of it before, The 4 Day Wonder Diet.
I have done this several times with good success. With this diet you are projected to loose from 4-6 lbs. This time around I have lost 5 lbs. It is a great way to shed a couple of lbs. for a trip...after a trip in my case, jump start a weight loss program of your choice, or just get rid of a couple extra holiday lbs. The way I look at it is, I can do almost anything for 4 days.
Here we go:
Day One:
Breakfast: plain coffee or tea
1/2 small grapefruit ** this is the same all 4 days
Lunch: broiled hamburger
1 cup lettuce, no dressing
1 medium tomato
** Amy's note. I crumbled my hamburger and put it on top of the lettuce and cut up tomato. It was like a nice salad without the dressing.
Supper: 2 hard boiled eggs
6 oz. green beans
1/2 small grapefruit
Day Two:
Lunch: 5 oz. chicken
1 cup lettuce
6 oz. tomato juice
Supper: 1 cup squash **these can be eaten raw or steamed
1 cup cauliflower
6 oz. green beans
Day Three:
Lunch: 1 cup lettuce
1 cup celery
5 oz. chicken
Supper: broiled hamburger
stewed tomatoes
6 oz. prune juice (okay, this I can't even do once. I just don't drink it...and I still lost weight..so do what you prefer)
**Amy's note: I buy a can of seasoned stewed tomatoes and pour it over my hamburger for added flavor.
Day Four:
Lunch: 2 hard boiled eggs
6 oz. green beans
6 oz. tomato juice
Supper: broiled hamburger
1 cup lettuce
1 medium tomato
6 oz. pineapple juice
That is it!! Try and make sure you get in 64 oz. of water a day too. I wouldn't recommend doing this diet more than once in a 1 month period.
Happy Weight Loss!!
If you try this and loose some weight please let me know.
