- TRACK YOUR RESULTS. Log your weight daily. Log your main body measurements 2-3 times per week. Over time you should see a downward trend.
- IT’S OK FOR WEIGHT TO FLUCTUATE. It’s normal for your weight to sometimes go down then slightly up from day to day. Your body is figuring out how to manage these changes. You’ll stabilize further along in the diet.
- STAY TRUE! DON’T CHEAT. If you want extraordinary results you will need break out of the ordinary cycle that has brought you here. Don’t indulge in foods or drinks you know are not on the plan. Your results depend on it.
Recommended Dosage
Follow what is recommended in the instructions on your Diet Drops bottle unless otherwise directed. (Complex Diet Drops is 10 drops or 0.5ml, 3 times per day)
PROGRAM SUMMARY – LOAD, LOSE, LOCK, LIVE!
There are two diet length options to consider before you begin. Choose the option that best fits your goals.
We highly recommend the slightly longer Option 2 to allow for your new lifestyle changes to really take hold. Those who follow this option tend to maintain their goal weight for longer.
OPTION 1 – Best If you are less than 20 lbs over your ideal body weight. If you haven’t reached your goal by day 21, you can extend Stage 2 and begin following Option 2.
Stage 1: Load Up (Days 1 – 2)
Stage 2: Lose It (Days 3 – 21)
Stage 3: Lock In (Days 22 – 42)
Stage 4: Live on (Days 43 and Beyond)
OPTION 2 – Best if you are more than 20 lbs over your ideal body weight or have not reached your goal during Stage 2 of Option 1.
Stage 1: Load Up (Days 1 – 2)
Stage 2: Lose It (Days 3 – 41)
Stage 3: Lock In (Days 42 – 64)
Stage 4: Live on (Days 65 and Beyond)
STAGE 1 – LOAD UP
These 2 days are your time to load up. This stage is important in helping to send the signal to your body that you have enough calories and it’s ok to “let go” of extra calorie storage. Don’t go too crazy, but don’t worry about counting calories. Enjoy some of your favorite, naughty list foods like a cheeseburger, pizza, cheesecake. You get the idea. Just follow a few rules:
- Start taking the products (diet drops and other recommended supplements)
- Eat two to three healthy fats per day
- Eat something fun from your naughty list foods
Healthy Fats: Coconut Oil, Avocado, Grass Fed Butter, Olive Oil, Raw Nuts, Fish (Salmon is one of the best), Grass Fed Beef, Buffalo, Eggs.
STAGE 2 – LOSE IT (VLCD)
Time to get the party started! Let’s get to losing weight and feeling great. Put simply, this is the very low calorie diet stage. You should not exceed 550 calories per day.
The Law to Lose IT
- Weigh In! – Weigh yourself when right when you wake up, and keep a log of your daily weight.
- No Oils! – Do not prepare your food with any oils. Do not use any oils on your skin during this stage.
- Follow the 2 x 2 x 2 x Ton Rule! –Eating each day will consist of:
- 2 Meals
- 2 Different Proteins (Select from the list)
- 2 Different Fruits (Select from the list)
- TONS of Veggies (Select from the list)
(a.) Eat Two Meals Per Day – Each Day you will be eating Lunch and Dinner (No Breakfast). All your eating should happen in an 8-hour window, for example, no eating before 10:00 AM or after 6:00 pm.
(b.) Eat Two Different Proteins Per Day – Select two proteins per day from the list. Don’t repeat the same protein on the same day or the following day. For example, if you have chicken and shrimp on Monday, wait until Wednesday to have either chicken or shrimp again. It might be easier to visualize as shown below:
MEAL | MONDAY | TUESDAY | WEDNESDAY |
LUNCH | Chicken | Beef | Chicken |
DINNER | Shrimp | Tilapia | Shrimp |
DAY | LUNCH | DINNER |
MONDAY | Chicken | Shrimp |
TUESDAY | Beef | Tilapia |
WEDNESDAY | Chicken | Shrimp |
Serving size for land animals (turf) is 3-4 oz. DO NOT increase beyond 4 oz. For anything from the sea (surf), you can eat between 5-6 oz. DO NOT increase beyond 6 oz.
Pro Tip: When you eat something from the land (i.e. chicken, beef, turkey) at lunch, then eat something from the sea (i.e. lobster, crab, halibut) at dinner. This gives you a greater nutrition profile as well as better calorie distribution.
(c.) Eat Two Different Fruits Per Day – Eat two different fruits every day. These are usually best eaten as snacks throughout the day. You can eat an apple and an orange every day if you’d like, just don’t eat the same fruit for both fruits.
Eat a variety of fruits from the list included to get a variety of nutrition for your body. DON’T CHEAT BY INCREASING YOUR FRUIT SERVING! ONLY TWO FRUITS PER DAY, FROM THE LIST
(d.) Eat TONS of Veggies – There is no limit on how many veggies you can eat! The approved veggies on the list are packed with nutrients, and have a much lower caloric value than many proteins.
We recommend eating some veggies from the list only once per week because they can be mildly inflammatory or hormone altering if eaten more frequently. Check the foods list and follow.
Eating more leafy greens and veggies with higher fiber content can also aid slowing insulin response. This has positive effects in helping you reset your metabolism and lose weight.
Recommended – Colonew is our daily colon health formula that contains a beneficial amount of additional dietary fiber. This product is designed to gently clear out toxic buildup in the intestinal tract, aiding the body in rebuilding the healthy gut bacteria that improves overall digestion.
- Use Pink Salt! – If you need some seasoning, it’s ok to use salt! Pink salt that is. Pink Sea Salt comes in different varieties. It is more balanced than regular table salt, and contains a number of different trace minerals that your body loves!Pink salt will help you with your body’s hydration process. Go ahead and use it to salt your meals. Don’t go overboard with it, but you should try to use about ¼ to ½ teaspoon per day.
- Stevia Only! – While you are on this program, the only sweetener allowed in stage two is stevia. The only powder stevia we recommend using is the Sweetleaf brand. Other powdered stevias add maltodextrin and other neurotransmitter disruptors to the stevia. The best type of stevia is liquid.
- Drink Your WATER! – We can’t stress how important this is. Your ultimate goal is to be drinking half of your body weight in ounces of water per day. For example, if you weigh 200 pounds, you should eventually get up to drinking 100 oz/day.Unless you are already doing this, don’t go all in yet. As a standard rule of thumb, you should aim to drink at least 8 – 8oz glasses of water. Start there and increase your water intake over the first two weeks to try to meet this goal.You can drink sparkling water, coffee (limited), and tea. You can also try drinking Zevia (soda replacement), or use water enhancer drops. Remember, no sweeteners except for Stevia.
- Do Plateau Breakers! – When you are the same weight, or nearly the same weight, for three days in a row, you are officially on a plateau and need to do a plateau breaker. Here are some examples:
Day 1 – You weigh 200 lbs.
Day 2 – You weigh 200 lbs.
Day 3 – You weigh 200 lbs. – Do a plateau breaker THIS day
– Or –
Day 1 – You weigh 200 lbs.
Day 2 – You weigh 199 lbs.
Day 3 – You weigh 200 lbs. – Do a plateau breaker THIS day
Plateau Breakers
We have three amazing plateau breakers listed below to give you options to get past it. Always use the Steak Day first, and let us know you’ve hit a plateau.
- The Steak Day – This is my “go to” plateau breaker and the one I would like you to use first. Eat nothing until supper, drink plenty of water, and for supper eat a grass-fed steak and an organic tomato or apple. You can increase the steak size to 5 oz. for your Steak Day, but only on the Steak Day.
- The Apple Day – Your goal is to eat up to six apples throughout the day. You can start eating apples whenever you want. Feel free to make your own applesauce, baked apples, or make dehydrated apple chips (dehydrator needed).
- The Raw Veggie Day – Eat as many raw veggies from your list throughout the day as you want. The only rule is they must be raw.
