husband doing kickstart & in 7 days lost 4.6 lbs!
Posted Tuesday, January 12, 2010 at 5:12 PM

I'm so excited about this kickstart! I have been a vegan for a year and a half and have been preaching to my family about the benefits but my husband and oldest son were not going to stop eating their pizza, ice cream and hamburgers for anything. My husband finally decided that he would do the 21 day kickstart after seeing Roco on Dr. Oz. We did not start on the 1st so it has only been 8 days so far. We did his measuring and weigh in yesterday (day 7) and he has lost 4.6 lbs and a lot of inches.

I am tracking his journey on my website www.theveggiegal.com. I would love for people to support him on the posts and share their experiences too. He is a sugar junky (our whole family is) and still eating that but for now I am happy that he is not eating animal products. I think maybe I can get him to stay on it for longer than the 21 days if others share. He reads my blog daily but would not search out other 21 dayers otherwise.

thanks
Kim

Hi Kim, what wonderful news of your husbands success so far..You must be as proud of him as he should be of himself..have no scale at home but my pants seem lose..Does he like the recipes or are you doing all the cooking? some of them are delicious..I made corn bread today to go along with my vegan "chili'. The bread was dense and hearty tasting since I used half ww flour...he might like it with beans, greens or chili. Thanks for sharing, Gramma Smile

Great story! I'll check out your blog.

That Rocco bit on Dr. Oz is pretty cute, gotta admit. Smile

For anyone who hasn't seen it, it's in two parts on the Dr. Oz site. The "reveal" episode is here: http://www.doctoroz.com/videos/rocco-returns

Thank you for your support. My husband is still going strong and has even been able to figure out how to eat out without my help. He has had to do it twice this week and I am proud of his choices.

I really think we are going to see a great change on his next weigh in this coming Monday. I am trying to get his labs scheduled so we can see if those change too and his bp.

thanks
