Cause and Effect of The Virgin Diet

Positive Outcome

Cycle 3

Diary of a Virgin Diet Follower

 

So Dairy,

 

Now that I am in Cycle 3 of The Virgin Diet and have successfully made it a way of life, (oh, yeah, Cycle 3, that's the part of The Virgin Diet after identifying my food intolerances (foods that I could not eat without having symptoms of bloatiness, dizziness, nausea, and restless sleepless nights, but also discovered the foods that my body could tolerate and made me feel, exuberantly energized, captured tremendously deep and satisfying sleep("just like a baby"),sharpened concentration with better focus, and no bloat or gas. 

The Virgin Diet is an easy concept to follow, because I know that based on what foods I eat and how  I eat (cause) can result in either a positive or negative effect on me. For instance, if I had continued to eat the 7  forbidden foods( corn, soy, peanuts, sugar and artificial sweeteners, eggs, and dairy) on a regular basis, I would have continued to gain weight suffer from a litany of the negative and unpleasant effects.

But after I saw all the amazing effect that The Virgin Diet had on my sister(she lost fifty plus pounds, looks so much younger and feels awesome), I wanted to look fabulous, lose weight and feel great too.. so in  January 1, 2016 ( my New Years Resolution), I embarked on my own Virgin Diet journey becoming a Virgin Diet Follower. It's the best decision I have ever made. 

Here I am 9½ months later, 35 pounds lighter, eating incredibly tasting food,  drinking my incredibly healthy and delicious Virgin Diet Smoothie(daily) and feeling fabulous. That's what I mean by cause and effect. The Virgin Diet is the cause and the wonderful outcome of eating right while losing weight is the effect.

So now that I have lost all that weight, I cannot wear any of the clothes that I have. Shrinking from a size 16 to size 10, I am having to get rid of all my oldie but goodie clothes. It's really unbelievable! Who knew that The Virgin Diet worked this well? I am unable to wear any of my old clothes because  when I put them on, they all just fall off me. .My closet is full of dresses, pants, jeans, swimsuits, blouses, halter tops, leggings, and undergarments, clothes ranging from sizes 16 to size 12. At first, I thought that I would keep them and get them altered, but I could not find a tailor or anyone that could altered them for me.

Soooo, I took some pictures of some of my favorite clothes and put them on Ebay to see if anyone would be able to use them... and guess what? The clothes in my closet are getting sold on eBay!

I am so happy that someone can use them because they are really nice clothes... I just can no longer where them.

One of my favorite pair of size XL sapphire blue sequined evening party leggings recently sold-they were sooo cute.

Now I have my adorable Vera Wang After 5'o clock Black Dress on eBay, it's a large, maybe it will sell too. Beautiful dress!

The Virgin Diet Is For Real

Its Not A Dream

I'm Wide AWAKE

Cycle 3

Diary of a Virgin Diet Follower

 

 

Diary Dear,
I'm not sleepwalking...am I?

It has been 8 months since I began my wonderful Virgin Diet journey, and I must say, what an incredible lifestyle journey its been.  The Virgin Diet is just that, a lifestyle, and way to eat to live as well as live to eat. 

For me, The Virgin Diet is a dream come true....

In just 8 short months (after starting in January 2016), I accomplished my weight loss goal and lost 35 pounds.  I am still pinching myself (daily) to see if it is in fact, just-a-dream. However, every time I get on the scale to weigh myself, which is usually once a week, I realize that its not a dream-its a reality.  

And it is wonderful feeling to experience such positive results from The Virgin Diet It is truly amazing and my reality too. Its not a dream-its real. Yes! the real deal! And,... I'm not sleepwalking either. So far, the journey has been fun, rewarding and gratifying.

In the beginning, when I was contemplating The Virgin Diet, I can remember thinking...I have to stop eating, what!? Seven foods? Why?.. Oh no, I don't think so!. What about my fresh-baked bread, my bread and my popcorn, my pancakes, my donuts(ummm!)and my, and my.. my...,my..?!. What could seven little itty bitty foods do to me anyway? Corn, Soy, Peanuts, Gluten, Sugar and Artificial Sweetener, Eggs and Dairy...they all seems so innocent to me. These seven foods were actually the culprit and the reason behind my inexplicable weight gain.  Although, these foods seemed to be totally harmless, The Virgin Diet has shown me how they were really hurting my health and causing me to gain unwanted weight. 

I was a hot mess, and kept repeating a litany of reasons not to try it. Things like, this will never work, I can't do this! What about the added expense of something new in my life. Making all kinds of excuse, I nearly talked myself out of something that was meant to be-destiny. I began to ask questions like... well... just what do I have to lose and its just for 21 days. And I thought that if I didn't see any results in 21 days, I would just quit. For me, that sound fair enough. Sooo,  I calmed myself, made a plan, set a date(January 1, 2016), and became a JJ Virgin Diet Follower.  And now, at 35 pounds lighter, am so glad that I did.

 

 

Now, I have completed Cycle 1 (that's the first

phase of the diet, where I eliminated the 7 foods from my diet; corn, soy, gluten, dairy, eggs, sugar and artificial sweeteners, and peanuts for 21 days). Afterwards, I felt like a new person (kind of hard to explain) and began to denote positive physical and mental changes (improvements) in my body. I felt more calm relaxed and even slept better at night than ever before. Most of all I noticed that I possess amazingly boundless nearly unlimited energy that I never had before(well, maybe as a child).

Anyway, at times, I thought I was dreaming or imagining it all. All that I know is that I liked it and wanted more, so I continued on to the next level, Cycle 2 of The Virgin Diet (Cycle 2, is where I reintroduced 3 of the 7 foods back into my diet-eggs, gluten, diary; I totally eliminated: corn, peanuts and sugar and artificial sweeteners because they can made me fat and feel really sick).

The reintroduction of gluten, dairy and eggs bought about its own challenges. The first week, I added gluten back into my diet and immediately reacted with symptoms like, feeling very bloaty, stomach distended, nausea, and feeling dizzy which lasted for nearly 5 hours. Not good! The next week I tested diary,( a little half and half in my coffee in the morning) no reaction. Diary is okay in small amounts. Next, eggs, I tested eggs by having an omelet-no reaction. Eggs-farm-raised, grass-fed eggs gets a thumbs-up (only a couple of times a week-not everyday). Yeah!

Now, that I am in Cycle 3 of The Virgin Diet, and have adopted The Virgin Diet as a way of life and lifestyle. I have made some amazing discoveries. I mean its never been so easy to keep the weight off  while enjoy good food at the same time.

One of the best parts of Cycle 1, Cycle 2 and Cycle 3 of The Virgin Diet is my daily Virgin Diet Smoothie. My Virgin Diet Smoothie is serves as a meal replacement and satiable( quite satisfying while eliminating food cravings).

                    Here's my favorite Virgin Diet Smoothie Recipe:

                    Red Raspberry Yum Yum Virgin Diet Smoothie

                              1 cup frozen red raspberry

                              1 cup (unsweetened) So Delicious Coconut Milk

                           1 scoop Growing Naturals Vanilla Blast Yellow Pea Protein(I love this!)

                              2 tablespoons of Chia seeds

Blend until smooth and bottoms up. Enjoy!

Sooo good!

 

Along with organic veggies and fruits, brown rice, brown rice flour, brown rice pasta, farm-raised eggs, farm-raised-grass-fed poultry, minimal dairy, grass-fed beef, lamb, wild-caught scallops, salmon, and shrimp and my delicious Virgin Diet Smoothies dining has become something I really look forward to.



Diary,

I am not sleepwalking and no, this is not a dream, The Virgin Diet is for real...believe that!
