Correction Day Alternatives

Posted from the LCF site.

Nut Day Average loss 1-2 lbs.

This has proven effective for some. A nut day seems to be good for those on the go because it allows snacking throughout the day.
The most important point to keep in mind is that the nuts have to be eaten RAW and to choose nuts with the highest fat content. The recommended order is as follows:

Macadamias 200 calories
Pecans 189
Walnuts 182
Brazil Nuts 186
Hazelnuts 179
Pine Nuts 179
Pistachios 164
Almonds 167
Peanuts 161
Cashews 163

This caloric measure is for 1 oz of raw nuts.
Concentrate on staying under 2500 calories for the day, using any mixture of nuts that you like. Try to eat your allotment for the day in small servings, like once an hour. This will keep you surprisingly satiated and will create quite the laxative effect the next day!!!


Chicken Day
Following the correction day instructions it says to oven roast a whole chicken then start with the brown meat, including skin...eat away all day on that chicken...but eat when hungry only. I am keeping that handy if I need to do a correction day. That not eating all day and than eat steak/apple at dinner was really hard for me. Like the idea that I can munch all day.
