So if you are keeping up with me on my blog, facebook or twitter you know that I have hinted to a radical new eating plan.  Now you may think I was just playing with your emotions but I have a real reason for not revealing it until today.

There are a small handful of fitness and weight loss gurus that I follow very closely.  Now I am very, very choosy about who I follow.  I like people that back up their words with studies and science.  I like people who walk the walk and talk the talk if you will.  And I follow gurus that have a similar philosophy to mine.  Weight loss is an ever evolving arena and no matter how much you know you can always learn more. 

So as I was saying I follow a few select gurus, one of which is on the top of my favorites list.  One day he sent me info on his new Radical Fat Loss Blueprint(RFLB).  In the email I could see that this was not for the faint of heart, the wimps or the complainers of the world.  This plan was radical for real.  So radical, actually, that I passed on the original opportunity to try it because honestly I thought I couldn’t do it.  Even if you manage to reach your goal, maintain your goal that doesn’t mean that you not a carb junkie at heart.  A sugar/carb addiction is truly an addiction – like alcohol or drug – carbs are my drug of choice (sometimes of not choice) – so there are days when you feel like you cannot even be radical for a day and this plan was 21 days.  So why all the mystery over the past couple of days.  Honestly, I wanted to make sure I could actually get through the detox days before I told you what the plan was.  What good would it have been if I couldn’t even do the plan. 

If you recall my last post early in the week about my romance with Carb and Sugar – Confessions of a Carb Addict- that although I was really at my goal weight – all of sudden I was having this torrid affair with Oreos and other sweets.  Normally, my weight hovers around 117 to 118, but all of the sudden I was 120, 121, 121.6.  If  I didn’t do something “radical”  I was on my way back to Chunkytown.  So walla, my mind went back to this RFLB and I thought ok sister, 21 days – suck it up buttercup before you turn into a peanutbutter cup.

So I started this plan on Monday, by Tues I was back to 119.4.  Yes I know, water weight.  I am well aware that most if not all of that was water weight.  Carbs do make me retain water and on this plan I got quite familiar with my bathroom, Monday.  But I am cool with that cause that water had to go.  The next day 118.6, Thurs 117.4 and today 116.4.  That’s below my normal 117/118.  Not only am I seeing results, but my carb/sugar cravings were gone by Tuesday.  Does that mean if my sweetheart, Oreo, were right in front of me that we wouldn’t be back together again - heck yah, I’m not that strong yet, but the other snacks in my house are not calling me so I am good with that.

So how do you get your hands on this Radical Fat Loss Program?  Well it is free.  One caveat…it is free with the purchase of Jon’s day to day weight loss book Every Other Day Diet.  Trickery, you say?  No, Jon is very set on the fact that this radical plan is 21 days only and you need a good plan to follow on day 22, 23 and beyond otherwise those tough 21 days will all be for not. So you purchase EODD and you get RFLB free, as well as his Personal Fat Loss Certification Course.  Actually you have to do the course and let me tell you it is so worth it.  You will learn things about fat loss that you never knew.  Even experts will find something to learn.  I am also giving you a link to his site so register – that’s free too.  That way you can follow him too.  If your at all into fitness, weight loss, nutrition you will find yourself putting him on the top of your guru list too.

So I am finished with the detox portion – thank goodness and on to the rest of the blueprint. I will check in with you as I go here and there. Join me if you like – you can really get some major progress or those last 10 to 20 pounds off before Memorial weekend.
