This program is primarily for patients who have been on nutritional and/or weight loss programs with me in the past.  If you have been on a Dr. Dale program, and now you feel the need to Recover and Rejuvenate after a period of excess eating, and some 3-10 + pounds of weight gain, (i.e. following the holidays, or just a time period of frequent “slip ups”).  This is a simple, very specific, healthy way to quickly drop those extra pounds, replace some less than ideal habits and recover your well-being and vitality. I have done this with over a thousand patients and the results of feeling better and being healthier are predictable.

This can be done for one to three weeks, and if you are doing everything properly you should lose anywhere from 2 -7 pounds the first week and 1 - 3 pounds each week thereafter!  It is straight forward, and time saving for most people.  Additionally, you will most likely feel noticeably healthier within the first 3 -5 days!  Another benefit is that the cost of your rejuvenation product, is usually no more, quite possibly less than, the two meals you would normally be buying. 

Most patients actually feel very good while they are on this program and find that it is easy to do, and a great time saver.

Some keys to getting the greatest benefits from your R+R Program:

· Stick as close to the program as possible.  Before making any changes to the program, please check with me.        

· Ideally you should make an appointment with me before starting the program.  This will allow us to clarify how you are feeling, what your weight is, any specific symptom changes or goals you have and how long you plan on doing the program.

· You may want to have a body composition analysis prior to starting, and I will review your supplement program and usually decrease what you are taking during this program.

· You should make another appointment just before you reach the end of your program so I can interpret the results.  This can be critical to maintaining the majority of your improvements for the long term. I will let you know how to re-enter foods into your diet and what to watch for.

DAILY ROUTINE

Upon Arising: First thing in the morning drink at least 6-8 ounces of water.

Throughout the day drink lots of water, approximately 1/2 oz. per pound of body weight.

Breakfast: Drink a serving of Bio-Cleanse, Core Restore or Opti-Cleanse GHI (2 Scoops), plus one scoop of Nano-Greens (not necessary in Opti-Cleanse), mixed in 10 -12 ounces of water.  Shake it up and drink.  See me to determine which product is best for you.

In between breakfast and lunch: Drink plenty of water, and if needed, snack on either raw fruit or raw vegetables.  If eating fruit, choose apples, pears, melons, citrus or berries.  Organic fruits and vegetables are preferred. Or your healthiest snack choice is a scoop of Nano-Greens in 8 – 10 ounces of water.  This will fill you up and enhance the overall results of your program.

Lunch: The same as breakfast.

In between lunch and dinner: The same as between breakfast and lunch.

Dinner: Oh boy!!!  You get to eat as large a meal as you want!  This meal should consist of proteins and veggies, lots of veggies. Either a large salad (see recipe), a large bowl of soup (see recipe), or steamed veggies and protein are your best choices.

Additionally you should use olive or walnut oil, on your veggies, or an olive oil based salad dressing.  Your vegetables can be eaten either raw or steamed, and you can eat as much as you like.

After Dinner:  Drink more water and if you need a snack you can have another serving of fresh fruit.  However, this should be at least 2 hours after your dinner.

You do have the option of eating lunch instead of dinner and then having your second shake at dinner time.

Other Liquids: Lemon in water at anytime is fine.  Re: Caffeine, continue to have either green tea, black tea or coffee, but no milk or cream in it. You can have as much herb tea as you wish. Stevia is your best sweetener or a tiny bit of honey.

Although very rare, if you experience any unusual symptoms while on this program, call the office to speak with me, or come in as soon as possible.  On some rare occasions we will have to make some changes to your program.

Congratulations on taking such a valuable step in creating a healthier life!!
