I'm following a book I borrowed from my sister, "How the Rich get Thin" by Dr. Jana
Klauer, M.D.This is about the 3rd time I've tried it. I made it through the jump start and
am now on day 8!! It starts off with a 3 day ONLY "Jump Start" in which you eat the same
thing for the first 3 days:
BREAKFAST
1 Omega Egg, 8 ounces low-fat plain yogurt (greek), large glass of water
AM SNACK
2 ounces low fat cheese, several glasses of water over the course of the morning.
LUNCH
A 4 Ounce can of tuna or salmon. She suggests Tonno tuna (I used to find this at
Ralphs but mine doesn't carry it any more.) packed in olive oil and solid light tuna, not
white. White tuna is higher in mercury than the light. You must drain the tuna and douse
it in lemon. It is good! You can do it! Invest in a good quality tuna and you will be
surprised. It's only 3 days!
PM SNACK
8 ounces low fat calcium enriched cottage cheese with 1/2 cup of raw cauliflower or
broccoli spears. Several glasses of water over the course of the afternoon. I was
peeing like crazy the first 3 days!! No alcohol! I did the low fat cottage cheese for the first
2 days, but I really don't like it. I do like regular cottage cheese, but the low fat, I just
couldn't do. The third day I did yogurt for the PM SNACK.
DINNER
2 Cups salad greens with oil free ginger soy dressing. 4 ounces broiled or grilled
fish or shellfish. I did salmon, it was on sale at Ralphs and it was really good! A 1/2 cup
of broccoli, spinach, green beans or asparagus. Veggies should be steamed and
topped with lemon juice only. See my dinner picture below. I added a tomato and
cucumber slices...cheater! I guess I shouldn't have because of the sugar in the
tomatoes??! not sure, but on day 3 of phase one she specifically asks you to add a
tomato to your salad.
Here are a few pictures of what I've been making and eating over the last 8 days.
Mostly all exactly according to the plan!
I'll be adding more!!
