Hey all!
It's been a while since I have posted anything....man, I have been through the ringer...let me tell ya!
I started with the Belly Fat Cure (BFC), lost 13 lbs, hit a plateau and then decided to try Carb Cycling which was about a waste of a whole month! I didn't lose a single pound! WTH?
So now I don't know what I am doing! I am just trying to eat well 95% of the time but I am tired of killing myself for measly results so....if I want a piece of cake, I'm having it! I will just add some activity into my day or maybe just cut calories elsewhere.
As for the BFC's stringent no more than 15 g per sugar a day....Jorge Cruz can stick it! LOL! that is BEYOND ridiculous. I did that for 17 weeks and lost only 13 lbs. It is NOT a miracle cure and it made me miserable and cranky and very boring to be around too!
Now I do the best I can and just don't beat myself up about it. I am nowhere NEAR obese. I am striving for extremely low body fat but maybe I am just not cut out to be that thin. I am 5'7" and around 135-140 lbs (don't know....haven't weighed myself in WEEKS!) but I think I am lucky to be as thin as I am for my age (38) so....while I am not completely done with the diet, I am going to cut myself some slack. I am who I am....that's the way it's gonna have to be.

Sister, I hear you! I tried BFC for a few months - while I think the principle of limiting sugar is good and seems to work for my body...I can't take the strict 15g rule. I did well in keeping within moderate limits on sugar - allowing myself natural sugar foods (like fruits and veggies) and created my own plan. Like you, I try to eat right the majority of the time...but occassionally eat something bad. While I have fallen off the wagon (stress, work, etc)...I think we have to come to grips with food and learn how to deal with it on a daily basis. Based on your height and weight - you seem to be right on target. Keep up the good work.

It seems that your goal of 125 is a little low for your height and age... Be careful! I am 5'7" and 45... When I was 18-23 I could carry 130-140 at a size 6 with a knock out figure. When I was 28 and had had kids, when I got down to 136 again, Everyone thought I was anorexic. I had to maintain 150 to look decent. But that's just me.. I think you look amazing and would LOVE to look like you do. Oh and for belly fat... I don't know what the Belly fat diet is, but the low carb atkins style I do dropped 22 lbs seemingly all from my belly in 5 weeks. you might look at atkins induction for a couple weeks...
