Belated Week 2 Plus Week 3 Results!

Hello all, sorry for the delay, we got bombarded with work and life as it is and by the time we got time to make a post, it was so close to weigh-in Thursday we decided to combine the weeks!  Following are the results for the past two weeks:

Jocelyn's Results

Weight Lost: 1.6 lbs

Status: Woo yeah!

Michael's Results

Weight Lost: 2.0 lbs

Status: That be some progress!

Not as fast as last years results, but we have to remember two things.  Last year we started off very strict and shot for the stars (which ultimately contributed to our downfall after 12 weeks) which made us lose weight fast, and somewhat unhealthily, up front.  Then it has been proven that after large weight loss followed by regaining of all of that lost weight can result in an even slower metabolism than when one started.  This week we are going to start focusing on what we have learned to increase our metabolism:

1. Protein and Fiber rich breakfast
2. Smaller more frequent meals, keeping the body metabolizing
3. Drinking lots of water (the colder the better), adding some metabolism boosting fruits/spices.  We will probably be using lemon because that has worked for us before
4. Lastly, anything we can think of or YOU our followers can think of, to improve the conviction we have to making our health and ultimately our lifestyles better.

Does anyone have any suggestions about metabolism boosting foods/drinks/methods that have worked for you?  We'd be very interested in learning! :)

We hope everyone is keeping warm in this crazy winter.  We both can't wait for it to be over!  We are ready for some Spring action.  

Enjoy your weekend!

Michael  and Jocelyn OUT!
