Eight Hour Diet... Week Something

Hello, everyone!

So, it has been over a month since I posted anything. I really, really apologize for this. I got really busy with my summer class, and then I had to move back to school which involved a road trip and lots of heavy lifting and setting up my apartment. But it's good to be back.

I am still on the Eight Hour Diet! I have not been losing weight as dramatically as I had been. That being said, I have lost about ten pounds since then. That's not bad... at all. I have also adjusted my weight loss goal by a lot - right now, I have twenty pounds to lose whereas I would have only had about nine to lose a few weeks ago.

Now that I am back at school, I've been able to exercise a lot more. For instance, I walk to school, and that takes at least twenty minutes each way. I also am taking a physical activity class - swimming, which is pretty intense! 900 meters in an hour is A LOT.

Because of this new exercise regimen, this is what I have found works the best for my Eight Hour Diet schedule:

Wake up, drink loads of water, walk to school
After swimming class, walk back up to the apartment and eat my major meal, starting the Eight Hour cycle
Walk back down to school, drink loads of water
Walk back about forty-five minutes before the Eight Hour cycle ends, eat a peach and a hard-boiled egg

That has been working quite well in terms of losing a fraction of a pound every day, which is a very healthy way to lose weight. I don't ever really feel hungry anymore, and I definitely don't feel as if I am deprived of nutrients.

I highly recommend this Eight Hour Diet. I was a huge skeptic at first, but I really, really like the concept, and I think that I will continue to eat like this for possibly the rest of my life - perhaps not as religiously once I reach my goal weight, but I definitely will do my best. That is because I have noticed so many side benefits - my sleep is better, I'm not eating nearly as much junk food, and I have a lot more energy than I used to.

Thanks, everyone, for reading! I have a lot of beauty products that I want to formally review, so I will try to post those pretty soon!
