We're two regular girls on a journey to lose some serious weight without starving ourselves and becoming gym rats!
We have both been struggling with weight loss for several years and have tried numerous diets without much result. Then, just a few short weeks ago, we came across a new diet book,
Six Weeks To OMG: Get Skinner than all your Friends by Venice A. Fulton. After reading the book we decided this was something worth trying. In an effort to keep ourselves honest and help any other folks considering this diet we have decided to document our 6 weeks to OMG.
Six Weeks To OMG goes into great detail about what you should be doing, how and why. If you are interested in trying this diet out go buy the book! Fulton provides three options for your 6 weeks to OMG; Wave (beginner), Blaze (intermediate) and Quake (advanced). We will both be doing the Quake version.
So that our readers understand exactly what we are
suppose to be doing, I say
suppose to because there may be days when things don't go exactly as planned, here is what our daily routine will be:
Start the Day with a COLD Bath:
Each morning start your day off with a 15 minute cold bath! For the first two minutes stand putting one foot in and then out followed by the other foot in and then out. After two minutes get brave and sit down. Stay seated for 3 minutes. After 3 minutes lay back and relax in the cold water for 10 minutes. This step helps us burn more calories all day long
Black Coffee:
After the cold bath it's time to warm up with a cup of black coffee. BLACK means no sweetener what so every! Black coffee on an empty stomach tells your body to burn fat faster!
Skip Breakfast:
No breakfast whatsoever!
Period of Movement 1 (POM1):
At least 45 minutes of exercise (walk, dance, run) but no more than 60 minutes. This is a key step and cannot be under 45 minutes.
Don't Eat for 3 Hours:
After POM1 it is imperative to NOT eat for at least 3 hours. Water, coffee and Green Tea okay but NO FOOD whatsoever!
Meal #1:
This is the first meal of the day and must be 3 hours after POM 1 is completed. 50% of meal 1 should be protein. Never count veggies or protein carbs towards your daily carb limit of 60 grams of carbs. Allowed 1 fruit per day and it must be in meal #1!
POM #2:
Hunt and wait! POM #2 should be done before meal #2. 30 minutes of "hunt" this should be something easy like a brisk walk. No gym required. Then wait 30 minutes before eating meal #2
POM #3:
Hunt and wait! Pom #3 should be done before meal #3. 15 minutes of hunt followed by 15 minutes of wait.
Lift Weights Once Every 10 Days:
Pilates, Classes, Yoga - just do something that is tough for your muscles.
Party Tricks with Balloons:
Blow up balloons every alternate night for 6 weeks.
Green Tea:
Drink 2 to 4 cups per day (16-32 oz)
