Week 14

I didn’t do an update post last Saturday about weight loss because it would have been skewed by my birthday meals. However, 14 weeks into my weight loss I have gone down another 3 lbs for a total of 47.5 lbs lost. So close to 50 lbs! I chose to not eat off plan for [...]

Week 12 – Staying the Course

Another 3.5 pound loss this week, so that brings me to a total of 42 pounds lost. That’s an average of 3.5 pounds per week, which is perfectly fine by me. I was hoping that I might have lost just a tiny bit more with all the work that we did last weekend on the [...]

Week 11 – Back At It!

So, last weekend I had my “moment” where I chose to eat off plan and I didn’t even get to enjoy it that much. I felt sick most of the afternoon and evening. I don’t exactly know what caused it, if it was the beer I drank, or just eating foods that weren’t as good [...]

Week 10 – holding steady!

The good news: I lost another 3 pounds this week! The bad news: today was my cheat day and for the first time in 10 weeks I ate what I wanted and I feel like hell. I could really blame it on the a-a-a-a-a-alcohol I consumed today, but I didn’t consume nearly enough to warrant [...]

I take my lunch to work every day. It’s usually about the same thing, either chicken breast, cheese or hard boiled eggs, cucumber, and an apple. I have a great cooler that I use to carry it in, and I use reusable containers for my cucumber, but I’m always looking for something else that I [...]

Week 9 – Still Doing Fine!

This morning the scale told me I was down 3.1 pounds this week! (Ok, the scale itself didn’t tell me, but my mad math skillz did). I was REALLY happy with that considering it’s that time of the month and last month I only lost a pound that week. A big part of it, I [...]

I eat SO.MUCH.PRODUCE. Tons. I eat a whole cucumber for lunch every day. My old faithful veggies for dinner are summer squash, zucchini and mushrooms. I eat apples or strawberries for almost every lunch. Buying that much produce means that you use a LOT of produce bags. I use reusable shopping bags for all my [...]

Week 8 – Doing great!

This morning marked the end of the 8th week on program and I am officially down thirty pounds! I’m thrilled, of course! With everything going on with buying a house, I haven’t had much time for exercise. I’ve taken a few short walks, but they were very short. I’m kind of kicking myself for not [...]

Envirosax Review & Giveaway 75-0 – CLOSED

106_4101

I get groceries at least once a week. Because I am eating a lot of fresh produce and hate having to thaw out meat to use, I shop this often so I only buy enough to use before it goes bad. I’m also trying to live as green as we can possibly live, which is [...]

Not looking back

I got on the scale this morning and it said 199.7. That’s the first time it’s seen a weight beginning with a 1 in at least 6 months. There’s no looking back now! I never want to see that evil 2 again. Ever. Now, when you get under 200 pounds while on the Metabolic Research [...]
