Project Tamara: Food Logs March 26 – April 2, 2011
Although Tamara’s weight didn’t go down this week, one whole inch each came off her waist, hips, butt, and chest, which is ginormous. We also changed Tamara’s “Free Day” to half a free day, and we are keeping track of her calories to the letter of the law. For this week her goal is four pounds, which will bring her down to 304.4 and out of the 300’s by the following week.
The plan Tamara is on has now cleared her body of a lot of the nasty chemicals that were trapped inside her and her migraine headaches have basically ceased to exist. One of the biggest things we are trying to get rid of is the emotional dependency upon food. For Tamara and millions of people worldwide, food has become an emotional escape, much like some people use drugs, sex or anger. Since in the words of Bill Phillips “You are not going to win a food fight,” I am teaching her how to deal with food on an emotional level and how to say “No” to random cravings. Week by week she is learning. I suspect this coming week will be good and she will have some serious breakthroughs.
This has been Project Tamara: Food Logs for the week of March 26 – April 2, 2011.
