The Wicked Wednesdays
Is anyone else finding Wednesday's to be the day of cravings, mood swings, and severe want to punch this diet in the head??
I am. Last week, I wondered if it was just a random day of rage towards the food I was eating, but the fact that today has resulted in the exact same (if not worse) reaction, I'm wondering if "hump day" should come back into my vocabulary. Continue reading

A New Outlook on Energy
Luke and I probably aren't the only ones dealing with a whole new idea of energy! I am astounded by how long I can last now that I'm eating such incredibly fueling food. Anyone new on this diet needs to read some of the "waivers" that come with this energy, though. Continue reading

Being gluten free on the 4 Hour Body slow carb diet
Well, I figured since I haven’t mentioned it before, and it’s been coming up in some recent Tweets, I’d write a quick post for celiacs, or those who are living on a gluten free diet.
It can be daunting enough to change to such a regime, but then to consider changing again, to another food-limiting way of eating could be enough to put people off. Continue reading

4 Hour Body – Cheat Day – Gluten Free
Well, that magical day rolled around on the calendar, and I have to admit was pretty excited for it. Though I enjoy the meals during the week, there’s nothing like switching up what you’re eating, where it’s coming from (and who’s cooking it) to make it feel like a great relaxing weekend day. I’ve been gluten free for over 5 years now, so my cheat day may look a little different to the hamburgers and mac and cheese days, so I thought I’d share.

Slow Carb 4 Hour Body Food Shopping List
With the changes involved in the Four Hour Body regime, we found our first shopping a little confusing, to say the least. All the usual pathways in the grocery store weren’t usable, as we had to go up aisles we didn’t usually visit, and ignore ones we used to.
With another shop under our belt, I thought we’d share our most recent shopping list to help people out. Continue reading
