Weight Loss Wednesday: Week 4 Update

I gained 2.8 pounds. This is getting stupid. Not the weight loss journey, but the fact that Every other week is bad for me. First week good. Second week bad. Third week good. Fourth week bad. I'm sure this type of up-and-down can't be that good for me, right? I'll be surprised if I've lost any inches... let's check it out!

Well let me break my week down for you. Thursday was Briam's birthday. He wanted Chinese food for dinner. I had pork lo mein, pork fried rice, and an egg roll. Friday was Briam's birthday dinner with my parents. He wanted Cuban food. I had Lechon Asado and Papa Relllenas. Both fried. Oh, and flan. Saturday night his parents wanted to BBQ for him. So we had BBQ chicken wings, yellow rice, and red beans. Sunday I had carbonara tortellini. Twice. Monday night I had 2 orders of sushi. Oh and somewhere in there was some Hamburger Helper. And last night I had Orange Chicken and some ice cream. Like, what in God's name did I do to myself? I ate. I ate everything.

It never ceases to amaze me how I can gain weight and then lose inches at the same time. I'm quite happy that my limbs are starting to even out. It was always weird having my right side be much bigger than my left.

As I say every week, maybe I'll get some exercise in... 

Review: Kaeng Raeng 6-Day Cleanse

Looking to jumpstart your weight loss program for the New Year? Then you have to try the Kaeng Raeng 6-Day All Natural Detox Program! I decided to try this Detox for two reasons: I wanted to lose weight and I wanted to cleanse my body.

Let’s be honest here, the website and a few reviews say that the smoothies taste good. Lies. They taste like crap. I tried mixing the smoothie packets with water, milk, and juice. Still tasted like crap. I had to literally hold my nose and chug these things. The website says you can eat raw fruits and vegetables while you’re doing the detox, but I decided not to add anything to my diet except the smoothies. I drank at least a gallon of water per day, mostly to rid myself of the horrid taste of the smoothies. But you have to remember, this is only my opinion! I'm sure the smoothies actually taste decent... just not to me.

The website also says that once the detox is finished, you could be craving vegetables. Um… who really CRAVES vegetables? Well, it turns out that all I wanted to do for a week after the detox was eat vegetables. And this comes from a girl who was raised on steak and potatoes. In 1 week, I had eaten more vegetables than I had eaten in the past 6 months. I even started to enjoy vegetables that I NEVER have enjoyed, such as kale, tomatoes, and bell peppers.

Did the smoothies taste good? No. Did the Detox Program work? YES! I ended up losing 5.4 pounds in 6 days and, not to over divulge, my body was clean. Kaeng Raeng also offers a 3-Day detox if you don’t want to do the full 6-Day program. The total cost of the program ended up being: $95.99. I used a 20% off coupon code that I had found online. But the regular cost is $119.99 for the beginner program, and the shipping was free.
