Wednesday Weigh-in

164 lbs

I weighed in @ 164 lbs...

I have been sick with a head cold for the last week...

I have not been taking the AcaiBerry Diet because I have been taking Sudfed, Advil, Mucinex, and vitamin C. I forgot about the AcaiBerry Diet...

I have been drinking orange juice like it was the antidote to the common cold. I know I have read some where taking orange juice helps shorten the duration of a cold...

Well I did not eat much in the last 10 days... just swallowed a lot of orange juice.

Maybe that is why I did not have a major increase or decrease in weight...

All my friend and family keep telling me I look like I have lost weight... the scale still says 164 lbs.

I measured myself and it shows I have lost an inch to a forth of a inch here and there.

As of today I have started back on the AcaiBerry Diet...

How much weight will I lose in the next 45 days or so?

How many inches will I lose in the next 45 days?

Will AcaiBerry Diet be a winner or a loser?

Tune in next week for the answers to these intreguing questions and more...

Same channel, same station.

Peace

Wednesday Weigh-in

Hmm...164 lbs

I don't know if it is the AcaiBerry Diet or the 4.5 miles I walked yesterday. I would count cutting the grass this morning but I have been doing that all along and have not seen much weight loss from it.

I can say that I do feel a little more energized. I am also taking Bee Pollen...1/2 tsp a day.

I am working on increasing my water intake. My dear friend bought me a H2O mini jug to help get me started. It holds 18 oz or 540 ml. I am downing my first 18 oz now... I have about 80 oz to go. If you know me forget exercise... drinking that much water is the challenge of the day!

Well I am off to a great start... Sunday will be a full week taking the AcaiBerry Diet. I will check back in Sunday.

Oh yeah... on Tuesday I walked over 5135 steps. After I walked the 4.5 miles I took the pedometer off and forgot to put it back on. So I am not sure of my total steps for that day.

I know I should wear it everyday. I keep losing them. then I buy another one and the lost one will show up. So I now have about 10 pedometers. My DH thinks I collect them...he also thinks I hoard things. I don't hoard... I just have clutter issues, which I am trying to resolve with the help of Flylady .

Tata for now....

AcaiBerry Diet

I started taking Natrol's "AcaiBerry Diet" on Saturday September 12. I am going to take it for 2 months and see what results I get. I take 2 caplets in the morning with breakfast.

According to the ingredients it has:

Chromium Picolinate 40 mcg
Acai Extract 4:1 500 mg
Green Tea Extract 160 mg
EGCG 80 mg
Metabolic Activator Caffeine Blend 100 mg
Berry Digest Enzyme Blend 5 mg

I am also taking 2 softgels of Spring Valley "Natural Wild Harvested Acai". 2 softgels contain 1 g (1,000 mg) of Acai Extract.

I weighed in @ 165 on Wednesday September 9.

There is nothing in either of these supplements that would cause adverse effects like ephedrine. I might have to watch the caffeine because I have had adverse effects in the past.

I think the digestive enzymes that are in the formula are very good. But there might not be enough to produce good results.

If this works great... and if not, it is still an excellent antioxidant.

Gluten-Free Peach Cobbler

Here is my gluten-free peach cobbler recipe. It looks great and has very good flavor...

However, the inner layers of dough were a little too "gummy" or "doughy". I plan on baking the three inner layers before I begin to alternate dough and peaches layers next time. So here is my original recipe. After making it with adjustments I will post that recipe.

Gluten-free Peach Cobbler

4- 15-16 oz. cans of peaches
2 Tbs lemon juice concentrate
1/4 tsp nutmeg
1/4 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp allspice
1/2 cup sugar
1 package "Che`be`" all purpose bread mix
1/4 tsp cream of tartar
2 eggs
2 Tbs oil or softened butter or margarine
5 Tbs milk or milk substitute or water

Preheat oven 400*
Place peaches with juice from only 2 cans into a saucepan over medium heat and discard juice from remaining cans. Add lemon juice, nutmeg, cinnamon, allspice and sugar. Taste mixture and add additional ingredient to taste. Stir and bring to a boil. Once mixture boils lower heat to low and continue to cook for 4-5 minutes. Remove from heat.

Prepare "Che`be`" all purpose mix stirring in cream of tartar to dry ingredients and continue according to package instructions. Separate dough into 4 equal pieces. Roll out each piece of dough to fit into deep baking dish. Line the deep baking dish with first piece of rolled out dough. Spoon peach mixture on top of first dough layer. Continue to alternate dough/peach layers ending with dough on top. Sprinkle with 2 tbs of sugar on top and bake for 25- 30 minutes. Cool and enjoy.

Peach Cobbler is a personal thing and there are many different recipes out there. If you have a favorite Peach Cobbler recipe which you can no longer enjoy because of the all purpose flour (wheat) try substituting Che`be` all purpose mix. Just follow the rest of the recipe as usual.
