I followed the Okinawan Diet for about two weeks. The Okinawan diet is structured around the idea of consuming a low restrictive calorie diet, high nutrient density foods, minimal fats and sugar consumption, low amount of protein consumption and unlimited amount of vegetables, legumes, and fruits. Process food/snack was also avoided while following this diet.
I thought this diet went pretty well and I felt much healthier in terms of what I was eating. All the food I consumed was fresh and minimally processed. I felt relatively refreshed and I could keep this diet up if I chose to. As healthy as the diet proclaims, I had issues obtaining the proper foods such as purple sweet potatoes. They’re not readily available to me and its suppose to consist
As the day drew near I could not have been more prepared. Especially when my products came. Now long story short you want to know how much weight I lost well only 8 pounds. BUT I did not have the money to do the weekly colonics or the coffee enema 's which are pretty much required to be successful on this diet. I did not feel hungry past the 3rd day and I did not experience any of the emotional breakdown the book described for days 5-7. Which incidentally I read the book completely. Way to many testamonials in there. I wanted to try this diet because everything else I have tried has failed and I am an avid Howard Stern watcher/listener and Robin Quivers kept bragging about it. I had numerous questions and emailed Dr. Roni and group

The staples of a typical Japanese diet differ dramatically from the centerpieces of the average American diet. In Japan, the main dietary staple is rice, which only has approximately 100 calories per half-cup serving, a negligible amount of fat, and a very low amount of sodium. Since rice serves as the nutritional core of almost every meal, this diet offers consistency and balance to its users. Many Japanese people eat twice as much fish as red meat, and since fish is high in protein while low in saturated fat, fish is a healthier
For this three day diet analysis project I wanted to eat as I normally would and be honest about all that I ate, to analyze not only what and how much I was eating, but also to see how healthy my diet really is. By doing so I can see if any of my diet choices are putting me at risk for certain health diseases, and what changes can be made to make my diet healthier. After analyzing my diet, I would say I am fairly healthy, though I am out of the target range in a few areas. My profile calculated from my weight and height indicates that I have a BMI of 20.5. This is considered to be healthy; the healthy range is anywhere between 18.5-25. This was reassuring to hear because I am happy at my current weight, and
In the past forty years, the average American’s weight has skyrocketed. This can be traced to the introduction of fast food into our everyday lives. Fatty cheeseburgers and grease laden French fries have replaced fresh fish and crisp vegetables. Americans have come to value convenience more highly than personal health and consequently we are paying for what we consume.
In conclusion, this is by far the best diet program out there. They do not try to put products or medications in your body that can in the long run be dangerous for you. Even once someone pays for
The comments from people are enough to knock your socks off. Everyone has taken the time to tell me that they did not recognize me after my weight-loss. They all mention how good I look after my transformation. One of the changes that have meant the most was the way my wife looks at me. She has always been supportive of any diet plan that I have tried, but the day I came home from Medi-Weightloss® and she gave me a hug, will be a day I never forget. She said to me, "I can actually wrap my arms all the way around you again and it feels just right." It's really nice to see that twinkle in her eye once again. Med-Weightloss® was such an easy and effective plan that I have referred multiple people who also have had amazing success. The staff at the Wilton office are amazing. Every time I walked in the office they greeted me with a smile and words of encouragement. They have been nothing less than professional and have been my life coaches on this amazing journey. I would recommend this diet to anyone that is serious about making a positive change to their lives and weight. If you are serious about Med-Weightloss® it will work for you. Thank you Medi-Weightloss® and the Wilton
Nutrition, I have learned plays a big part in our life. To be honest I was clueless about how much nutrition affected our everyday lives. I love going to the gym working out, now that I know what should go into my diet I think I will see a lot more improvement. I occasionally follow the latest diet fads because I believed it would be better for my health, but in turn it really hurt more than it helped! This Diet Analysis project has been extremely useful course because I can personally relate to it and can use much of the information learned to my daily routines. The Diet Analysis project was a real eye opener because it let me see what exactly I was putting into my diet.
Another great challenge was the quality of the food. I like to eat my salad with olive oil and vinegar. However, olive oil would be too expensive, and I decided to buy a light Italian salad dressing instead. The dressing had HFCS as ingredient, which I usually avoid. Like the salad dressing, I would not buy a regular mayonnaise, but I could not find a light version in the Dollar Tree store. The quality of the green tea was also bad, it even stained my cup. To conclude my challenges with this diet, headache was a problem. I am used to
The three-day diet analysis was interesting. There were many positive attributes to it and definitely negative ones. Over the course of the three days, which were Friday, Saturday and Sunday: and figured this would give a good depiction of what I was consuming on a regular basis. In some places I was consuming more than I should be and in some I was consuming less than I should be. There were also those places were I was getting just the right amount. It is so interesting to me to be able to find out what I am consuming and how I am consuming it. Being an active male, it was most interesting of what I ate, what my average of the three days were, and the plan on how I would correct the way I eat to make it a more healthier lifestyle.
According to my three day diet analysis it seems like my eating habits are poor. Not necessarily that I am consuming too many bad foods but I am not getting the all around nutrients that I need on a daily basis. Sometimes not eating enough. Or ot finding time to eat at all is a big issue in this. Due to my job and the lack of time I have at home it is hard for me to get the nutrients I need on a daily basis. With the target that is shown of six oz. of grains two and a half cups of vegetables, two cups of fruits, two cups of dairy and five and a half oz. of protein foods I fell short in most of the areas that were targeted for me. My biggest two areas of consumption was refined grains and protein.
If you love eating healthy food, and also want to keep your weight down, then this is the diet for you.
If I'm able to stick with a diet without starving myself and actually be happy about it instead of feeling miserable, I would say this would be a miracle diet.
In January, my diet proved to be moderately unhealthy. On several counts, I missed the target levels for a person of my gender and age. I took in slightly more calories than the target 1724 per day versus a target of 1600. I also ate more protein (55g versus 46g) and far more carbohydrates (256g versus 130g). My fiber intake was low (10g versus 25g). My saturated fat was 10% of total calories, whereas the target should be lower than 10%. My cholesterol was within the target range, so was one of the few things that I really did not need to change.
A simple and fast regime is the three-day plan. If you need to lose less than ten pounds, this may work for you. The meals are simple and basic and focus on low-calories food. It does provide substitutes for foods you may not enjoy for ones you would, like tuna rather than cottage cheese or green beans rather than broccoli.
