Opinions good or bad welcome. I know i'm not the only one trying to lose weight whilest on NBE i did my research on the special K diet and it seems good, and read reviews and nearly all the people on it lost between 3-5 pounds a week on it. because my version is combined with NBE it might not be as much as 3-5 pounds.

Before you read more, i'm starting the diet tomorrow but i was always doing the massage and workouts.

THE SPECIAL K DIET, Transformed for NBE, maybe...?

"Just... Seedz mix" i recently just bought this from home bargains and was amazed that nearly all the things in this were good for NBE.
ingrediants:
- Sunflower seeds
- pumpkin seeds
- sesame seeds
- hemp seeds
- linseeds
- soya sauce, soy beans
- Koji,
- roasted soya beans
- dried soya beans
(i had alot of sesame and linseeds left over so i added more of them to the mix aswell

The diet:
BREAKFAST AND LUNCH -
Special k cereal with a handful of the seed mix, soy milk and a banana.
TEA -
chicken feet broth with a chopped chicken breast, carrots, peas, added chili flakes and brocoli. (need protien because i'm doing butt workouts)
SNACKS -
1 Nutella on sesame riveta or a rice cake with sesame and linseeds sprinkled on top.
or an apple or a carrot.
AFTER 6-8 in the night -
I'm going to drink Oolong tea because it supresses appetite, gives energy and decreases fat and oil intake.
WORKOUTS:
Butt and hip work outs every other day
core rythms full body workout on the days i dont work my butt.
everyday - 50 sit ups.

Drinking 2lts of water a day... When your body gets used too and knows its getting enough water it will stop storing so much food and stop trying to get liquid out of everything you eat and drink.

Additonal information:
Special k cereal with a handful of the seed mix, soy milk and a banana.
(Will Be Eaten straight after morning massage with a cup of fennel tea.)

Drink a cup of hot water with lemon and honey as soon as i wake up about half an hour before massage.

Massage: day and night
I was doing the 30 day challenge but recently started doing only 200 day and night and started seeing more results. i then do the pressure points, squeezes.

After having a bath: i do about 50 Slaps aka cupping with avon's bust cream. i also exfoliate them in the shower and i blast the warm shower water on each on them (mentioned in flat2fab) for a count of about 20.

Massaging with: Olive oil with fenugreek powder seeped init.. i know alot of people said it irritated them, it doesnt irritate me because i make the fenugreek stay at the bottom. Drinking fennel tea with honey and lemon straight after both massages.

Meditation -
during and after massage also in my daily mediatation.

Personally i think olive is great because it helps decrease stretch marks and also prevents them forming.

The Canadian formula includes rice, wheat gluten, sugar/glucose-fructose, defatted wheat germ, salt, malt (corn flour, malted barley), vitamins (thiamin hydrochloride, niacinamide, pyridoxine hydrochloride, folic acid, d-calcium pantothenate), iron, and BHT added to the package material to maintain product freshness.

Hey girl,

I know in my country Special K has either 17 og 18% sugar in it (17 or 18 grams in 100 grams). How much sugar does your type have?

Some companys are very clever and advertise "fat free" or "99% fat free" but state nothing regarding the sugar content which can be very high and like you know sugar is very bad for NBE.

Rose

you make a good point, it actully isnt that bad if theres sugar init after all we need sugar and you cut out most sugar anyway, if the sugar content is high im starting to use honey instead of sugar anyway i think more than 4g of salt or sugar is bad 2% can't be that bad, can it?

well, they have never said fat free thats impossible for cereal unless its organic and even then it would have healthy fat on the box it says 3% fat im guessing per serving..

"110 Cal per 29g cup serving. One serving contains 0g fat, 22g carbohydrates, 2g sugar and 5g protein.

How does the plan actually work. You eat one bowl of any brand of special K cereal with 2/3 cup of skim milk.Then when dinner time, eat your meal as typical. Snack can be permitted to eat through the day. These can be Special K bars, fruits, or a vegetables. You can also drink a juice for beverages as normal, but water is recommended.

Anyone who tries the Special K Diet may lose weight, but it’s not because of magic behind the Special K products. The Special K diet is a low fat – high carb diet plan. By substituting a bowl of Special k for a breakfast and lunch, you will be eating less calories and fat. By lowering calories intake than body needs, we can lose weight. That isn’t hard to understand."

i cant actully find out how much of everything is init. but that up there explains most of it nearly all cereal will have added sugar even if they claim to be fat free, itis nothing is except maybe water but the reviews on it speak for itself.
