REAPING THE BENEFITS OF GRAPEFRUIT
Just a brief reminder to those who may be like me and have forgotten the positive benefits resulting from eating a half-grapefruit for breakfast.
My summer has gotten off to a bad start weight wise. Between May 30th and July 10th I gained 8 pounds. The weight sort of slipped up on me as I had not been weighing on a consistent basis–nor, had I been exercising. The combination of over-eating, lack of exercise and no knowledge of the increased pounds resulted in this tremendous weight increase. If you are like me you know how easy it is to gain weight and how difficult it is to lose it.
I immediately committed to weighing daily and taken a careful look at what I was eating. I also decided that I wanted to accelerate my weight loss. So I resumed some of the practices I learned at Weight Watchers years ago. Grapefruit and its ability to accelerate weight loss was one of the things I recalled. Thus I added one-half grapefruit to my morning breakfast and to a few dinners. I don’t know if this was luck or if the weight increase was a result of water retention. But, I am pleased to report that I lost 5 pounds in one week.
HOORAY!! for the benefits of grapefruit. I don’t know if it will work for you too. But, what do you have to lose but weight. Have a great day.
