Teach Soap

Hi All,

I convinced some of my officemates to do a cleanse/healthy eating kick with me starting January 16. It's the 'Crazy Sexy Diet' cleanse. I posted about it here:http://www.soapqueen.com/personal-ramblings/smart-goals-and-a-crazy-sexy-contest/ So far, I've gotten seven soapers to join us (yay! that brings us to a merry band of 12) and I'd love to see if anyone here wants in?

It's 21 days and lots of fresh juiced veggies, lots of whole veggies, fruits, nuts and some grains. It's based on the work of this gal: http://crazysexydiet.com/ Kris Carr and after watching "Fat, Sick and Nearly Dead", I'm totally sold!

Would love to have to have anyone that's thinking they want a reboot in 2012 join us =)

Hi A-M!

I will definitely take a look at the site. I'm currently reading "The Petite Advantage Diet" and hoping something works for me...Or rather I can work with it

I tried the South Beach diet a few years ago because several friends used it with success. Alas, I ended up gaining weight... I'll just stick with eating lots of fruits & veggies and cooking low fat/carb meals.

I found out that I'm over weight because I don't eat enough. Shocked me! Skipping breakfast is definitely a bad idea.

I started 2012 with the goal to loose weight (who doesn't? lol) and I keep calling it my diet. I laugh everytime I'm talking to someone and they're like "oh, which one are you doing?" I remember when 'diet' simply meant eating better lol.

Course, my 'diet' is putting a stop to shoveling every bad thing I can reach in my mouth. The past 12 months have been hell with my ex, court battles and lawyers, etc. As an emotional eater, I was eating myself into a grave! So 2012 is the year to stop relying on drive-thrus and sugar to get me through the day.

Any diets out there that allow bacon and beer?

Dave, I am right there with you.... as long as someone is willing to wear some leather for added scent
Actually when I was in Bellingham this past summer... I stopped at the 'Rocket' donut\coffee shop that is right across from the Otion store. They have this long john that has maple frosting and fried bacon strips over it.... to die for. Sorry ladies about hi-jacking this thread. If I ever get back to Bellingham it will be for that donut.... and Otion as well. (Hi Kat!).

Susie, you are killing me! I should not have read that post while drinking coffee!

We've been doing the Diet Reset at Bramble Berry for four days now and it's been a blast! We're all almost past the grumpy phase and are just getting used to eating more vegetables than we've ever done in our life. It's a good thing!

I started a daily support email so if you want on it, just email us at craxy (at) brambleberry (dot) com and we'll get you set up for it! =)

Right now I'm on the breastfeeding diet My little peanut is 13 days old and I've lost 35 lbs since getting home from the hospital. Much faster weight loss than with my other kids, whom I didn't breastfeed. Plus, I get to eat 500 more calories a day
