The Dr Bernstein Diet Weight Loss Blog

I just completed 15 weeks on the Dr Bernstein Diet. I am on week 4 of the maintenance portion of the diet where I gradually increase the amount of food I intake.

Since I started maintenance, I have been “cheating” quite a bit. I have had a few beer here and there, pizza a couple of times and a few other treats but in smaller portions than I used to eat or drink. Guess what, my weight has not increased at all, if anything I am still losing weight. I still eat my vegetables and lean meat just in larger portions and then have snacks here and there. The one thing I haven’t tried eating yet is sweets. I am starting to think that sugars/carbs are the biggest problem in any over weight persons diet. So, I think I am just going to give them up forever. I can live without a chocolate bar, but have a hard time not eating a big cheese burger now and again.

I am still continuing to do my pushups and situps daily, gradually increasing the amount each week. I actually got me some cardio tonight too, me and my wife and another couple hit the tennis court for a good ole sweat. I will probably wake up a pound lighter tomorrow.

Anyways, thought I would throw out an update. Check out my measurements if you are interested.

If you have had some success losing some weight or even failures, I would definately like to hear about it. Drop me a comment or send me an email.

Cheers.
