I'm actually a clinical dietitian - and I have to 'look the part,' so I always try to follow the 80/20 rule (80% eating like an angel, 20% messing that up). For about the past 2-3 months, I put more dietary restrictions on myself. Alcohol only 1 day out of the week and NO alcohol after superbowl. No starch or starchy veg after lunch. I have a severe sweet tooth, so I still allow myself a few hard candies a day while I enter in my nutritional assessments at work. I have also been a committed crossfitter for the past 2 years. I can usually only get there 3x/week but these past 4-5 months I've tried to get there 4x/week. It doesn't always happen, but I achieve that 4x/week schedule about half the time. Actually, its killing me (guilt-wise), but I promised myself my last workout would be this past Monday 2/17. Xfit workouts can result in many bumps, bruises and all and I just don't want to take a chance on a bruised collarbone or something this coming Saturday. Just doing push ups, sit ups, and squats in my living room.
I'm 5'3' and usually about 120lbs. I wanted to be about 110-112 on the big day, but I feel pretty ready right now, at ~115lbs. Just gotta make sure these last 48 hours are filled with natural diuretics (like asparagus and celery), lean proteins, and non-bloaty veggies

I was thinking about starting crossfit. Where do you go?

A few days after ordering my dress, an angel (and fellow LI Weddings bride!!) introduced me to nutrional cleansing! Since beginning this amazing program I've lost 23 lbs and countless inches off my body!! I kicked my caffeine habit too! I'm amped to step up my game and lose another 20 before my wedding. I am so happy I finally did something about being so unhealthy! Feeling like I'm gonna be the happiest, most energetic bride ever :)

I would love to hear more about this nutritional cleansing! I am always looking for some added assistance with dieting, although not so sure I want to give up my caffeine! How long did it take for you to lose the 23 pounds?

I'm happy to give you more info if you're interested! The 23 lbs came off in 3.5 months (mind you, I had thanksgiving, Italian Christmas eve, Christmas, new years, and a engage-aversary getaway during these months). I have energy through the roof without coffee or soda. Never thought I could feel this awesome!!

Your results are amazing congratulations. Would you mind FM me the info as well. I have never tried a cleansing before and have always been curious about it. Would love to hear more.
