Wednesdays used to be dedicated to fitness, my personal goals, healthy meals for the week,
current progress and health/fitness related literature I was currently engrossed in.
What happened?
I have a bit of a secret that has been in the works.
I was contacted by the people at Liquid Amino Diet to try their product for three months.
I have vowed to truly try to only use supplements and pre/post workout products that are natural and free from the chemicals that give us supernatural abilities and results.
The Liquid Amino Diet uses drops containing a combination of homeopathic remedies and amino acids (which naturally occur in many of the things we already consume, like meat!)
The drops are said to increase ones metabolism and enhance fat-burning while supporting the functions of the liver, thyroid and digestive system.
When the welcome package arrived, “M” read the entire booklet out-loud to me while I was folding laundry and cleaning up. I found that he diet that accompanies the drops was actually somewhat close to my then current Paleo eating habits.
Beginning this nutritional journey has been so incredibly rewarding and kept
me accountable for everything I put in my mouth.
“M” has truly helped me by stocking his place with only foods within my diet so I have absolutely no excuse even when I am there. He also has completely upgraded my workout routine.
In just three short weeks I have lost 7lbs while adding a rigorous weight-training regimen.
You know that means I am replacing any extra fat with muscle which
weighs even more yes!? Those. Results. Are. Insane.

To be frank, I did notice a drop in my appetite (something that I was warned about) so it was a bit hard some days to consume all of the calories I needed, especially with my workouts.
M has been taking a photo diary for me so at the end of the three months I will do a concluding post with before, during and after photos.
Many of you have made comments regarding seeing a slight difference in my appearance, a thinner face, leaner legs and arms. (Thank you for those comments by the way!)
For all of you. I am completely open, ask me any question about the product, what I eat and which foods I avoid. I will answer everything.

September 18, 2013Will it be easy for you to maintain this loss after the drops run out? Do they give any recommendations after you finish their product?

September 18, 2013Though it is called the "Amino Acid Diet" I truly see it as a lifestyle change and plan to continue the eating plan outlined 6 out of 7 days of the week (vacations/travel permitting.)
Whereas the product does lessen my appetite a bit, my stomach will be shrinking and when I am finally not taking them at a lower weight, my body will require (and crave) less calories.
The company also provides health coaches (mine is Angelina) to help you plan how to keep the weight off and make sure you are getting adequate nutrients.
It has been shown that groups that are coached are far more successful in keeping the weight off. (Read the second paragraph: http://www.liquidaminodiet.com/customer-service-amino-diet/)
Feel free to reply with any other questions you have Liz π

September 24, 2013Well I thought you looked amazing before, but I'm glad to hear this new approach is working out for you! I also think it is so sweet that M has been so supportive, especially with stocking up on the foods you can eat! I admire your self-discipline and it inspires me to stay on track with my personal diet changes! I hope it continues to go well for you!
