Dr. Clark’s Jump Start Diet – 24 Hours In!

Dr C with tie croppedI’m starting this Jump Start Diet now for the next two weeks and I’d like to invite you to come along with me.

It’s a very simple diet.  Simple doesn’t always mean easy.  But basically it’s using Weight & Inches Shakes.  They’re 200 calories each.  I drink 5 of them during the day so it’s about 1000 calories.  They are a very good protein source and low carbohydrate.

I’m very sensitive to carbohydrates and so when I start drifting with my eating plan, especially during the holidays, and struggled over the last few months.  And when I drifted, I ended up bouncing up.  I have about 10-12 pounds I’d like to get rid of, so we’re going to do this “Jump Start Diet.”  It’s 5 shakes a day.  The concept is very simple.  That doesn’t mean it’s easy to do.  I understand that.  Simple and easy are two different things.  So it’s simple—you mix it with water and drink the shake 5 times a day.  You’ve got everything that you need.  You have protein, low carbohydrate, and vitamins and minerals.  Literally, you could live off these.  I don’t know if you’d want to, but you could.  I still take my vitamins every day.  One thing I do add is extra magnesium to prevent muscle fatigue and prevent constipation, especially if you’re on a higher protein diet.

I’m going to be doing this for the next two weeks.  I’ll keep you updated.  I’m just getting into this.  I’ve been on it for about 24 hours.  I’m anticipating that I’ll start getting those caffeine withdrawal symptoms, the carbohydrate withdrawal symptoms will show up over the next day or so.  Hopefully the symptoms won’t be too bad.  We’ll talk about it.  Yes we’re going public with the whole thing.  So I encourage you to join with this as well as make sure you monitor yourself by weighing yourself.  When you lose the weight, post it on the website.  That’s why we’ve got that weight loss tracker on there.  So I’ll keep you updated in the very near future.  I’d enjoy it if you would join me.  Please comment and let us know what you’re thinking.  We’ll talk soon. Take care.
