I'm about to embark on a diet experiment. I'll call it the stomach growl diet. I did it about 10 years ago and lost ten pounds a month. It's been on my mind for a while and I finally decided to give it a go again after reading this.
The trick is whether I have the self control to wait for my stomach to growl. I learned this when I was doing the "Weigh Down Work Shop" by Gwen Shamblin. I hate missing meals with my family, so I need to occasionally have a drink of milk if the tummy growls before dinner is done. I will also need to get more sleep.
Wish me luck!

Luck! Especially about the sleep :) I love the simplicity of using the physical signals as clues.

ReplyDeleteThanks, Hannah! I am already down (daily weighing) two pounds, but I usually need to average that out over a week before I believe it is weight loss and just not some change like dehydration, excess lactation (LOL), etc. I also have a funky cycle whereby I lose weight at the end of my cycle when most retain water. Go figure.
ReplyDeleteAnyway, it's funny. Once I decided to do it, it was easy even though I've been pondering this for 6 months. I guess I just had to be ready to do it!
I'll post regular updates.
good luck girl... my gut does not work that way any more... love mom
