Happy Hump Day all
Those who follow me on social media will
already know that yesterday I started the Nutribuddy diet from all of my snazzy
smoothie posts.
As per the title this is my first impressions
of the Nutribuddy weight loss kit. You (Even though I have already started).
Initially I turned my nose up at faddy
diets however as I had been so busy with work family and life in general a lot of
the good eating and lifestyle practices had gone out of the window and I found
myself yearning for some structure that my living situation was not allowing
I had been planning to design some kind of smoothie
diet myself when the opportunity to test NUTRIBUDDY and will hopefully take a
lot of the leg work out of the process for me.
First of I’m a sucker for packaging, simple
and feminine without being too flowery and all of the packaging is reseal able
so everything stays nice and fresh.
Included in the weight loss kit you get:
Sculpting whey powder – I was offered the choice
of vanilla or chocolate, I went for vanilla.
Multi vitamins capsules
Hunger fix capsules
Shaker bottle – you get a choice of red or
black, I chose black.
Recipe book
The little book of weight loss
Depending on your diet goals you can
purchase 7 days’ worth, 14 days’ worth and 30 days’ worth.
I have been sent 14 days’ worth of product
which would cost £34.99. Which seems reasonable.
I liked the fact that Nutribuddy send you all
the information you could need about the products in their ‘little book of
weight loss’ and there is even a 5 day meal plan full of meals and smoothie recipes
that you can try. Recently I have been
stuck in a bit of a food rut so the mealspration (not sure if that is a thing) was
defiantly welcomed..
As I had already been making my smoothies
with my nutribullet I decide that my approach to the diet would be to have a
shake in the morning, one for lunch and a healthy meal in the evening (I sound like
a Slimfast advert)
As I prep my and freeze my fruits in
advance so the only extra step I had was adding the powder and making extra to bring
with me to work for lunch.
I also made my evening meals in advance some of which I froze just in case I went out.

My first shake was on Sunday and I mixed
the sculpting whey powder with frozen raspberries, blueberries, pineapple and spinach.
The vanilla powder is tasty but has a slight after taste to it. This morning I had
my first work day on the diet, my smoothie contained blueberries, strawberries,
banana, spinach and kiwi which I really enjoyed. I forgot to bring the Hunger
fix capsules with me but I dint really start to feel hungry until lunch time. I
will try the hunger fix tablets tomorrow and I’ll let you know my opinion on
them my follow up post after the 14 days.
Along with the shakes I will be drinking at
least two litres and trying to up my daily activities and perhaps going to the
gym at least twice a week
I quickly wanted to go over what I planned
and have already started doing, to lose weight while using the Nutribuddy
products. So that I can compare in 14 days when I finish the diet.
When I can evaluate how it went and then
make a decision on what I will realistically continue
Here’s a page telling you a few do’s and do
not’s:
In order to be safe I recommend that you
read all of the do’s and don’ts in the The little book of weight loss I already
don’t do most of the things they advise not to however as I suffer from Lupus
and take medications daily I made sure to have a conversation with my GP to
make sure that it wold not affect the medications that I was taking.
I had been wanting to plan my meals in
advance for some time so this is the perfect opportunity to try this out, if
you fail to plan you plan to fail right?
As far as exercise goes following a Lupus
flare I had to put going to the gym on hold so I plan to up my daily activities
and slowly ease back in to the gym doing very gentle activities taking care not
to aggravate my condition so no ‘heavy’ cardio… or weight training.
It is a bit disappointing because I know if
I exerted myself more the results would be more drastic but if I push myself too
far and have a flair its back on to the steroids and no one wants that.
I will be posting frequently on all social
media channels about my progress with these products and how I’m feeling about
them using the hashtag
#wotshernameagaindiet
Your encouragement would defiantly go a
long was so please like, retweet, comment and all that jazz so I know you have
my back.

Have a great week every one
