Anyone every try Crack the fat loss code by wendy chant?
Try going to the forever fit website it gives sample menu's. Also, I ordered the book but it had to go for second print, so I got impatient and looked for an e-book and found one at Diesel books. So I downloaded the book. I still am waiting for the real book though because it is a pain to go back and forth on the ebook and download it each time.

Hey everyone! I'd like to join in too! I'm starting first thing Monday morning. I read the article during the 4th of July long weekend and knew I needed to wait until after this weekend to start. I'm really excited! I've done Atkins before, but the biggest thing with that was going without hardly any carbs...after so long I just broke down and couldn't make myself go back on plan after a big cheat. Sooo...this sounds way more sensible. I like the theory behind the whole carb up and carb down days. My body does get stuck in a rut and won't budge when things stay the same, so shaking things up will do me good.
I too am awaiting the delivery of my book. I can handle the first week no problem....just going to treat it just like the Atkins induction week and hopefully if my book is delivered on time like the email said...July 16th...then that will give me plenty of time to study up and be ready for week two.
I say we stick together, encourage each other and we will do great!!
Anyone have any yummy recipes to share that they have used during the first week of induction?
AND...I have a question, on the carb up days how many carbs does it allow you? What about the carb down days? How many for those days? I know...I know...it's in the book...but I'm anxious to really find out the answers!!!
Have a great weekend everyone! I'm off to the lake for some sun and fun and not too many carbs so I don't feel cruddy when I start this on Monday!!

Welcome Jodi, if you go to the foreverfit.com website, there are sample menu's for the carb-up and carb-down days.
It does not give a carb count because Wendy doesn't make us count anything. It is a plan with substitution lists. Later as the weeks go by the carbs get a little higher on cheat days etc... but then if you have more weight to lose you recycle skipping week one (the carb deplete week)
A carb-up day sorata looks like this: This is the diabetic one:
meal 1= 1 whole egg plus 2-3 whites, scrambled plus breakfast potatoes and 1 slice toast (Ezekial type) the substitution list tells you how much potatoe
meal #2 = 1/2 cup fruit and 1/2 cup cottage cheese
meal #3= 6 in sub and 1 small bag chips
meal #4=Crispy lettuce wrap (2-3 oz turkey brast & cheese rolled in a large lettuce leaf) and 1 cup of berries
meal#5= Pasta with chicken and sauce with a roll (DO NOT STUFF YOURSELF)
I am not sure but I think the pasta you can have a serving size according to the box, but the chicken specifies in the substitution list how much.

A carb down day is as follows example:
meal #1=spinach and mushroom omelate
meal #2= 1/2 c cottage cheese
meal#3=3-4 oz grilled chicken, 1 c broccoli, 1/2 small sweet potato
meal#4=Protein shake
meal#5=4-6 oz grilled salmon, 1 c asparagus, salad with tomato, cucumber and 1 tablespoon olive oil and vinegar or low cal low sugar salad dressing
meal#6=protein shake
Baseline day example:
meal#1=wendy's crepes (recipe in book)
meal#2=crispy lettuce wrap with 2-3 oz turkey breast and cheese in a large lettuce leaf
meal#3=4 pz chicken and veggie stir fry and 1/2 c rice
meal#4=protein shake
meal#5=Tasty Turkey Taco Salad (recipe in book)
meal#6=sugar free jello (1 serving) with 1 T rediwhip spray cream
Hope this helps :) the cheat day and high carb days later are different a couple days a week but the other days are one of these three I have listed. I am on day 6 and can't wait to add a small carb back in on Monday and Tuesday. I can taste that 1/2 sweet potato now.
Week 2 is carb down for Monday /Tuesday then Wednesday /Thurdsay are baseline then Friday carb down ,Saturday is carb up then Sunday Baseline.
Well, I am finishing up day three today. It seems like it went a lot better today. It may have something to do with the fact that I was out and about pretty much all day. I kept coming home in between to get my meals in and then I would go out and run around. I found this pretty beneficial for me, since it did not give me much time to dwell on the eating. I also kept a water bottle or green tea bottle with me all day. That way I felt fuller in between meals. How is everyone else doing??
janik2798 thankyou so much for the baseline sample for those of us that don't have the book... can you post a carb-up day as sample please .big smiles

I just paid for WW and if you notice my last post... haveing trouble with it *sigh*.......God Bless
thankyou for your understanding
sincerly ..Cherri
Cherri, the carb up and down are on the previous page befor the baseline. This is just the three for the first couple weeks then the book has accelerated and maintenance that I won't post due to copywrite, But the first week is carb deplete for seven days and is no more than 20 carbs daily. That is the toughest week. I am on the last day of the carb deplete and can't wait until tomorrow to do carb down.
