you know I have tried this diet so many times its not funny. Lasted a week last time and just couldn't face the sight of protein again. It is definately a great diet, if you can stick to it. Can't say I will be joining you, but good luck
I don't reckon its that bad but then again I get different types of meats and mix it up with eggs and protein shakes for snacks when I can't be bothered LOL Its only protein only for 3 days then its like normal eating :)
Being pregnant I can't join you but just wanted to say its worth checking out the forums if you haven't already. There are some amazing recipes on there for protein snacks that are for sweet foods. I found I was so over the meat all the time too, but got a renewed energy for it when I got started on the sweet stuff.
Good luck with it.
Thanks Lulu I'm going to head on over and check it out :D
Sorry - should have said that from memory its in the members' recipe section, not official bodytrim recipes. Lots of things with ricotta or cottage cheese.
the jelly cheesecakes are sensational! Only ever had ricotta cheese cooked into things before but never with jelly. LOVE LOVE LOVE definately try them. In the first week of doing the program I lost 4.6kg, which was brilliant considering you only have to do a 30 minute walk each day. I would try it again, with the right support. My hubby was not very good when it came to keeping me on track
mummame - I can be your support system! My hubby is the same I say I want iced coffee and I get iced coffee LOL!!!
lulu- the forum is great I am thinking about doing the 12 week body challenge hey with the shot at 50k who wouldn't!
you're on Miss K.
3 day detox starting Monday 9th ??? Better start getting my protein snacks organised. (and the benfibre ;))
Wahoo can't wait!!!! What state are you in?
Can I do it too? What do I have to do? I have a friend whose mum and sister lost heaps of weight on this, but I don't know the ins and outs of it.
I am in Perth WA. So you will get a little head start lol. How much weight are you trying to loose? I have 15kg to get rid of, and hoping to have it gone by the end of April for my hubbies birthday.
with BT, you do protein only for 3 days. 50 grams of protein for snacks and 100 grams for main meals. You have to eat at least 6 times a day, but you can eat some protein every hour of you need to. For the first few days its best to take a fibre supplement like benefibre because you can get quite constipated. After the detox phase, you can add a serve of carbs to your breakfast or a serve of fruit. Then you have the protein and vegies/salad for main meals but continue the protein for snacks. You have a free day once a week, again keep protein for snacks and don't overdo your free meals. The day immediately after your free day you have a day of protein only:
I want to loose 15-20kgs!! I want it off for Easter :)
Hanna can you borrow your friends book? If not I'm sure we can help you out with the plan :D
exercise is limited to 20-30 minutes of basic movement a day, they recommend walking if you are not a regular exerciser. And they say you need to do 10,000 steps per day to get optimal results.
I will get my book out and add more info for you
Oh you are wonderful! Thank you.
I don't think I can get the book from my friend because she's in Batemans Bay and I'm in Brisbane, but I will look into buying it. The thing is, if I do it, I'll be starting a little later than you guys because I'm away at the Sunshine Coast for a week from the 7th til the 14th and won't be able to start til I get back - no matter though :)
if you keep an eye out on the TV, bodytrim frequently do free trial offers. You get the whole system for 4 weeks trial and only have to pay for postage, then if its not for you just send it back.
I have been wanting to try body trim for a while, will try and keep along with your journey to see how you go!
just had a quick look at my book, after the 3 day detox, you can have one serve of carbs or one serve of fruit for breakfast with your protein serve. One carb serve is 1 slice of multigrain bread, 1/2 cup uncooked oats, 1 cup of high fibre cereal or 2 weetbix. You can have skim milk with your cereal and a dash of skim milk in tea or coffee. No sugar drinks are also ok, but they say 3 litres of water a day! (the more you drink the better you will feel)
They do say, you can have protein powder or protein bars as snacks but preferably not in the first 3 days, and no more than a couple of times a week.
Not sure if I have missed anything.
Hey Sally, if you are interested in having a look at BT and you are heading my way, you can borrow my book and DVD's.:
I want to do it but I need to continue expressing and hopefully breastfeeding soon.
I'll be keeping an eye on you all. Best of luck. X

With your protein snacks you can have 50 to 100grams, so if you feel the need to have a bit more then have the 100grams but if your weight loss is stalling, then try to stick to the 50 grams. WHat I really liked about it was that they really do emphasise not to sweat the small stuff. Can't stand your toast without butter? Smear a bit on. Need tomato sauce on your meatball snack ? Go for it. Its a much more balanced way to diet, rather than all shake diets or things like Cohens when are soooo regimented.
Lynsdan - don't do it now lovely. While you feel great after the first week or so, it is really draining to begin with and you have more than enough to worry about without sapping your energy even further. It is also far too limiting on calcium when you are trying to keep your milk supply up.
Good luck ladies.
Miss K, I can't pm you as yet, still waiting for membership to switch over. Are you still planning to start on Monday? I went out tonight and got my ricotta cheese to make the jelly cheesecakes on sunday, and got some vacuum packed sliced meat. Going to cook up some chicken breast as well and bought some frozen fish fillets and tuna...so I am set! Monday is going to be interesting however. I will be up from 7am monday through to 7.30pm tuesday because I have a one off night duty, reaching my step count wont be an issue but there will definately be some extra protein snacks eaten
Yep I sure am :D I'm still on holidays at the moment so will hit it full swing on monday :P
Miss K, I am going to start on Saturday. I feel that right now I am ready, I am in the right mind set to do it and don't want to leave it until monday to get started. So I will (all going well) be a couple of days ahead of you, but hopefully we can still support each other through this process.
Count me in to starting tomorrow I was going to start today :p
EXCELLENT!!!!!!
I haven't made my jelly cheesecakes yet, really need to do it soon so they set for tomorrow night, I enjoyed having one for my evening snack, curbed the sweet attack
I won't be around until midday tomorrow, have to work in the morning and have a few cake orders I have to get organised for. But will check in when I get home.
All the best for tomorrow.
I decided to wait till tomorrow how you going?
well, I have decided to skip the 3 day detox and go straight to the weight loss phase. I did yesterday as protein only but I just cant do 3 days in a row lol I know the weight loss for this week will be lower but I am happy with that. Doing well so far though, 3 litres of water down, 30 min walk and pedometer is on 13 103. Have made bolognaise for tea, I will have mine with vegies and kids can have the evil pasta. Had tuna and salad for lunch.
Wahoo go you!!! It'll be interesting to see the weight loss difference :)
well day 2 finished (of my adapted BT program lol) step count 15, 547. I am sure I will be weeing all night from the litres on litres of water I drank today but its all worth it. Feel totally full after dinner and still need to have another snack in about 20 mins. Hopefully the difference isn't too much, I know last time I lost over 4 kilos in the first week but if I only loose 2-3 I will still be happy.
Good Luck tomorrow
Today has been a success here too! Went for my 30minute walk did all my snaking and eating (it's actually easier then eating junk!)
Let's see how the rest of the week pans out! I have my cousin on it too as of today!
I forgot to mention I need to up my water drinking its hard when you're not a fan!
yeah, I have to make a real effort to drink the water, but then I find I guzzle litres of it and spend the day on the loo. All going well here, took a sneaky peak at the scales yesterday and was down 1.2kg, which I am happy with so far, although I know if I had down the 3 day detox it would have been more but thats ok.
Oooh 1.2 already wahoo!!! You go girl the new and improved sexier you will be here before you know it :p
I am sweating from tonight's power walk I am only sitting on 7961 steps today looks like 2 walks tomorrow ;( soo disappointed with that! But my food intake still going strong
are you on your last day of detox today? and are you going to weigh yourself tomorrow morning? I am seriously getting sick of this protein, going out today to find some yummy tasting protein powder and some protein bars. Was going to have a look at the BT cookies, but I believe they take a while to arrive. Good luck today.
Yep I suuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuure am!!!! what are you having protein wise?
Some healthfood shops have bodytrim products in them :) I'm not going to weigh myself till day 7 dont wanna be disappointed incase.
well I caved lol ended up have a sandwich for dinner last night. I think a lot had to do with being tired after doing night duty, but I just couldn't eat another piece of meat. Got to regroup and get back on track.
How are you going mummame???
Tomorrow morning is weigh in for me soo can't wait to see whats happened this week! And tomorrow is cheat day WAHOOOOO
wellllllll lets just say back to day 1 for me.
All the best for weigh in x
