HOW DO YOU START

• Be prepared mentally, that this is something you can commit to and it will be #1 even at times where you will have to choose to not eat what others are eating.
• Be prepared with the right types of food in your home.
• Have lots pre cooked meat and eggs that you can eat when hungry
• Stick to the plan..it works..do not cheat as it is hard to go back again.
• Drink 3 - 500 ml bottles of water a day. You can include your coffee, tea, diet drinks in that amount but we found drinking that much water over and above our other drinks works best.
• Have lots of vanilla on hand ..( We use it in our Plain FF Yogurt and also in our Oat Bran Porridge.
• Have lots of Splenda on hand for as above
• Have a box of Oat bran on hand. (No , not oatmeal, or oat flakes, but oat bran) You will get to love it.
• Have a good scale . (Weigh your self every morning, nude, no matter what, even if you had a problem the day before)
• Be prepared to be tired, head achy, and weak for the first week or 10 days. Do not do anything too  strenuous.
• Eat when ever you are hungry, all you want, as long as it is on the allowed list...
• There are a few small things you can have as tolerated later in the diet but not while in the Attack Phase.
• If you are going to do a 5 or more day Attack you do not have to have the vegetables on hand. Shop for them when you are ready to start the Cruise Phase.
