The Sacred Heart Diet: an AC Content Producer's Results

I recently tried out a diet, reccomended by my doctor. These are my results, the second installment of a two-part series. To read about the Sacred Heart Diet and how I prepared for this seven day eating plan, click here.

First, a review of the soup:
When I first tasted the soup, it was probably too hot for me to really savor it. When I had my first real bowl, I was highly impressed. I did add two packets of the soup flavoring, although the recipe called for one. It was just fabulous! I will definitely be making this recipe again just to have on had. Very yummy.

So, let's get down to business. Here is a recap of my seven days on the Sacred Heart Diet plan.

Day One of the Sacred Heart Weight Loss Plan:
I started the morning with a small bowl of the soup and black coffee. The black coffee took a little while to get used to, but I likened it to drinking a dark beer. It worked. Later on in the day, I had another black coffee. I also drank two bottles of water while at work, and a glass of apple juice when I got home, and also two more cups of black coffee.

During the day since it is fruit day, I snacked on three slices of cantaloupe, a plum and a small bunch of grapes. I was pretty darn hungry by the time I arrived home. I should have brought soup with me for lunch as well. I had a small bowl of the soup for dinner and two slices of cantaloupe.

How I feel: It's strange. I did feel like I had more energy. I did some arm weights and push-ups when I got home, as well as the dishes. Perhaps some of the regular foods I eat make me sluggish.

Celery. You eat a lot of it on this diet.
