I Wanted to Share My Modified Diet

I swear I talk about the JLO Diet like if it were my bible, but in all seriousness, it’s probably had one of the biggest impacts in my healthy lifestyle, besides Orange Theory.

This is the JLO Diet… no sugar and no carbs for ten days. I’ve already completed it a few times and been consistent, but I started to modify it. I can’t live without cheese. I know- high cholesterol, cellulite, fats… but it’s honestly the only dairy product I can’t live without. I love cheese! If I could be a cheese connoisseur, I would. Sign me up! So I added dairy and fruits to the equation.

Green grapes have become a favorite snack. I’ll eat a banana after every workout, maybe with peanut butter too. I’ve been munching on papaya (makes you do #2), strawberries, raspberries, and blueberries (great for your well-being and with yogurt).

Ten days goes by fast (if you’re not next to the refrigerator all day), especially with all the temptation that goes around. So I carry a water bottle everywhere I go. A gallon helps because you wouldn’t have to refill it as often, but I know it could be heavy. I think reusable water bottles are more fun, if they have reusable straws. #SaveTheTurtles. We should be drinking more than half our body weight daily.

Try a new habit. Make it a goal. Do something that challenges you.

PS I’ve made a little schedule for you if you wanted some side motivation or needed a meal plan. You can save or share or let me know if they work for you!
