The Healthy Heart Miracle ???????????
The Healthy Heart Miracle ??????????? Anyone here ever read or try the book The Healthy Heart Miracle by Gabe Mirkin? I have a buddy of mine (big guy like me) whos doctor recommended he read and follow it, so far after the first week he is down 11 lbs and feeling great! I just wonder (haven't got or read the book) but the general prinicle from what I understand from my friend is that he eats a bowl of oatmeal for breakfast, and for lunch and dinner he eats a large salad with fat free or reduced dressing and I think he does that for 2 weeks to start, then slowly starts introducing other foods into the mix... I am sure there is more than that to it all and that was just the JIST of it from my friend real quick (again haven't read the book yet) but I gotta say I was impressed with is 11 lb loss and the fact he said he was eating well and drinking lots of water etc etc. For me I experimented (I am a big guy too) with Oatmeal for breakfast (real oatmeal) with strawberries and a salad for lunch and salad for dinner plus about 1/3 the portion size of my normal dinner meal (wife not willing to do it with me) so I ate a small plate after my salad of dinner for the last few nights... Anyways 4 days later here I am down 4 lbs, and still feel as tho I am eating healthy and whatnot (altho I know im not following the books plan 100%) but it has me interested enough thru my friends success and thru the simplicity of it (and it sounds like its all healthy foods), to wonder if anyone else here could fill me in a bit about the book or it's plan - good or bad??? Thanks for any input, Bill www.bigguynation.com Land of the free home of the big guy |
