I don't expect anyone to do this, but I have been faced with the challenge of losing weight, and I've been trying to for the last 2 years, and so I decided that with the holidays coming up, I would go on a mostly raw (fruits and veggies) diet, with a few dips such as Peanut butter, and hummus to help it along.
So today, I hath embarked on this journey, that I shall travel through, to Christmas with.
If any of you peoples out there are struggling with weight loss, you are warmly welcome to join me!

(And I hope that at least someone will.

)

Tonight's dinner consists of: Salad, cucumber sticks, baby carrots, peanut butter filled celery, and red bell pepper sticks, with hummus to dip into on the side.

Please pray that I would lose at least 5 lbs. on this diet.

And either post here, or PM me if you would like to join me!

Just make sure you eat enough calories, my girlie. If you don't, you'll shoot yourself in the foot and your body will go into starvation mode and store body fat, which makes you unable to lose weight.

Fruits and veggies don't have a lot of calories, so you have to make sure you eat enough to lose weight.

Haha! Don't worry, I don't think that it would even be possible to starve myself.

(I have a very big appetite, thus the weight.

)
Aye, I'm eating a lot of veggies, and quite a bit of peanut butter, and hummus.

I'm also taking Sunday off the diet, because we are celebrating Christmas early with family because they will be out of town for the holidays. (Long story)

PB and hummus are a good source of good fats, so you should be good.

Yeah.

I'm not very excited about the diet, but at least I'll lose a couple pounds.

Good challenge, Nessie! Hope it goes well for ya. Dieting can be really difficult sometimes, you really have to push yourself to do it. I like to do it with someone, so I have an encouragement partner and also someone who goes, you can't eat that.
