Day 10: Detox Your Diet Supplies | 30-Day Weight Loss-athon

Here we are at Day 10 of the 30-Day Weight Loss-athon. We’re one-third of the way through!

All tasks in the 30-Day Weight Loss-athon are adapted from the 52 Weight Loss Missions program.

Read the steps first, then take 10 minutes to complete them.

Move fast, act quickly and stop over-thinking. Ready?

What You Need:

  • A big trash bag.

Step 1

Today we want to get rid of foods that remind you of old habits and sabotage your new eating program.

First, let’s review the specific actions you chose on:

Based on these decisions, make a list of foods you need to clean out of your life so you can stick to your diet actions.

You only need to detox your space according to the specific actions you’ve chosen. If you’re giving up desserts, then get rid of the desserts. If you’re cutting down on alcohol, then put the alcohol out of view. Make list of all the foods you will dispose of.

Step 2

Right, now let’s go around to all the areas you keep food and clean them out.

We need to detox:

  • The pantry
  • Your car
  • Other cars you use
  • Your desk drawers
  • Your nightstand
  • Your purse
  • The basement
  • Anywhere else you store food.

Take the discarded items straight outside to the trash. It’s okay – I’ll wait.

Yes, you’re wasting food. But it’s less of a waste than if it took up residence as fat on your body and disappointment in your mind. Let it go.

Step 3

If you want to detox your space of treats that other household members want to keep, what do you do? Ask them to store their treats out of the pantry or any place where you may accidentally come across them. You may have to remind them a couple of times. 🙂

Check in!

And you’re done!

    There is not much temptation around (a few sweets), but I am refusing to throw food which is still okay and usable “in small portions” – I rather change the re-buying habit…I recently bought a Thermomix and changing food prep. habits along with it.

    We are not ‘junk snackers’. Our snacks are usually greek yogurt and fruit when I feel like a ‘treat’ I blend them with ice, flax seed meal and a little soy milk for a wholesome refreshing smoothie.
