Guest guest Posted June 26, 2001 Report Posted June 26, 2001 Progress Report: Today is day 30 for me on YB's Millet & Tofu weight loss diet. This is basically eating 1 cup of cooked millet & 1 lb. of tofu per day with any veggies, I use Bragg's to flavor (as recommended, it is great stuff!) and only fruit & tea after 4 pm. Eliminate sugars (yes including honey, maple syrup ect.) and caffine). When I started I had been gaining weight which I can ill afford to do. I've struggled with weight all my life plus in the last few years high blood pressure and there is a history of heart disease in my family so gaining weight was dangerous for me. I do not weigh myself but have lost at least an inch plus in circumference and 3 inches off my waist! (where I carry my weight). I feel much more energetic and at the same time I am calmer. I made a commitment to do this for 40 days because I wanted to retrain my eating habits. I'm gentle with myself about it. The diet is not suppose to have caffine but I drink green tea and I use a soy milk with some fat in it as a creamer for my yogi tea (just watching the amount I use). My big vice is an occasional diet coke. In the evening if hungry I eat a banana and a few times I had extra tofu. I plan to stay on this diet for a longer time so I need to be able to live with it. This is the first weight loss diet that I've been on that I like! I have always hated dieting so its a major breakthrough. I keep thinking that I've eaten too much fruit but I keep losing weight so I don't worry about it and pretty much have any fruit I want. I am enjoying trying on clothes that haven't fit for a while and those forward bending poses are getting easier! The booklet, Weight-Loss Diet aka The Millet Diet by Bibiji Inderjit Kaur, is available at the Ancient Healing website as is a great selection of Yogi brand teas. http://www.a-healing.com/ I thank you all on this list for being my KY support.
