Before I call it a day, I would like to share an update on The Metabolism Miracle diet. I promised to keep you abreast of my journey with this program. I will be finishing two weeks on Monday (today is Saturday). Although you are not supposed to get on the scale until the end of the eighth week, I could not take the suspense! As of this morning I have lost seven and one half pounds. For someone who has been trying to lose weight for what seems like forever, this was indeed a happy discovery.
My grandkids spent the night last night and our tradition for breakfast is chocolate chip pancakes. Ever since I was a child I have loved pancakes. They just did not fit into my current eating plans. In The Metabolism Miracle book I found a recipe called, “Silver Dollar Pancakes”. Having previously tried another diet’s pancakes, I was somewhat apprehensive to give this recipe a try. However I did and to my surprise and delight, they were delicious. I let my grandkids try them and they said, “Gramma they taste like vanilla pancakes, they are good. With some carb-free syrup I didn’t feel the least bit deprived. Below is the recipe:
Silver Dollar Pancakes
For Steps One, Two and Three (6 mini pancakes = 5×5 carb food
Makes about 30 pancakes, one serving size = 6 pancakes = approximately 3 grams of net carb
Cooking oil spray
1 cup part-skim ricotta cheese
1/3 cup soy flour
1 tablespoon canola oil
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1 packet Splenda
Pinch of salt
4 eggs beaten
Spray a griddle pan or skillet with cooking spray.
In a mixing bowl blend together the ricotta cheese, soy flour, canola oil, vanilla, Splenda and salt.
Fold in the beaten eggs and mix into a batter-like consistency.
Spoon onto the prepared hot pan, lightly brown on both sides.
Serve with carb-free syrup, light whipped cream, or a dollop of carb-free jelly.
I am already feeling a difference with following this diet. I don’t have any cravings (even was able to sit and watch my family eat warmed apple pie with vanilla ice cream!), am not the least bit hungry , have more energy and see a difference in my mid section.
I am truly encouraged that I have finally found a “diet” that is working with my body conditions. I am looking forward to a healthy future and the reduction, and possibly deletion of my medications.
Please check back for updates.
Blessings,
Judy Conway
