The Pastry Diet

As a Nutritionist I hear about all sorts of gimmicks like “The Grapefruit Diet”, “Organic” and “Weight Watchers”. I’m here to tell you all that this really works!

The Goal: increase your Body Fat by 3% in two weeks before an event so you don’t die in the woods from malnutrition

The Plan:
2 weeks prior to your event begin a calculated regime of 3 pastries a day after the 3rd day increase to 6 pastries. Day 7 is your half way point…if you’re half way to your goal increase to 8 pastries a day. However, if you’re not half way there increase to 12 Pastries a day for 5 days and then 16 on days 13 and 14 to make sure you have adequate build up of LDLs prior to departure.

It’s just that simple.

I've been 13 days and I’m already up 2.7 %

Almost to my goal of 4.8% Body Fat!

So, get out to your local bakery and indulge!

Leaving Tomorrow...going a little mad!
