I’m a 34-year old woman, wife and mother, starting the “Green Faces Diet” for the first time after seeing a friend and her mother have great success with it. There isn’t a whole lot of information on it, other than what I’ve read here and as a newbie, I wanted to know what I was in for, get some recipe ideas and just get some encouragement. I couldn’t find anything directly relate do the GFD, so I started a blog to document my 21-day journey as I’m learning and tweaking it (not changing the foods, though.)

I hope that someone will find it helpful!

I would recommend a little bit of Stevia instead of splenda for sweetener. Awesome information — thanks for sharing!

This is a sound plan…not some commercial ad fluff. I love videos that show me what to do and a complete meal plan. This stuff works!

Hey Everybody.

Thank you for your comments and questions:

#1. For the first 21 days there IS exercise, it just starts NEXT week. I have found that it is overwhelming to throw all that at someone at the same time. Week #1 is to get your mind and diet together. You WILL make progress. Week #2 you start the workout program.

#2. Greek yogurt has 1/2 the carbs and 2x the protein vs. regular yogurt. Also “regular” yogurt usually has a lot of added sugar. Plus, I think that Greek stuff is better tasting.

Have a great new year. “See” you next week with part II – the workout program.

Oh, and I did videos for all of the exercises, so that should make it easier to follow along. A video is worth 1,000 pics!

Josef,

Thanks so much. Not a hockey fan but I am a fan of living wisely and you provide a lot good information towards achieving that goal!

Altho’ weight loss isn’t a need for me, good nutrition and health are. So I read the first part (without doing the work) and was impressed by Josef’s ability to cut to the core of the matter and his references. I plan to forward this to a couple of people and revisit part one to do the work.

As usual, Josef is on the money with yet another article. A goal that is not time-bound is merely a dream.

So, for the first 21 days there is NO exercise?
