Week 1

I feel like we should take a sensible approach and not try to go from 0 to 60 in 2 secs. Cutting down on some things is a good idea. Let's take a break from:

1) Alcohol. Shouldn't be a big deal unless you are in AA.

2) Coffee. This can be tough. Switch to Herbal Tea instead. If Herbal Tea doesn't work at all, Green Tea is OK for Week 1. Please use organic sugar in small quantities instead of artificial sweeteners.

3) Dairy. No milk, ice cream, cheese or butter.

That means it's OK to have Bread in Week 1 in moderate quantities. It's also OK to have meat but, eating white meat is better than eating red meat. Salmon, chicken and sea food should be great. We need to make sure we consume high amounts of fiber on a daily basis. We will also be eating multiple times (5-6) a day in small quantities and drinking a LOT of water.
