well well well look whos back with their head hanging low... I am back to 167 this morning, completely fell off the wagon....remained lacto-ovo vegetarian, but lost track of myself and started eating eggs & cheese again, along with chips, chocolate and wine.... wow.... I have been thinking about the McD program everyday and lurking on and off on the boards over the months. I can't believe I got back up to my highest weight +2 pounds....
I got down to 157 in July following the regular plan!
I have thought long and hard, am focused, and I am back! I am going to do the regular program, but with no nuts or seeds, but maybe 1/2 avocado once in a while, I just love them!! whatever keeps me on plan I guess!
Edited to add.....going shopping today & starting tomorrow!! I am also going to start a new journal
Goals, of course are weight loss. but I also want to FEEL healthy! I'm 33 and feel tired, bloated and just plain ugly these days.....I have to change my life!
All my bloodwork came back "normal" in September. My BP always fluctuated so I dont really know where its at, sometimes I get 110/75, then the next day its 135/89 or something! I am contemplating getting an at-home bp machine. I was back up to 2 cups of coffee a day, now back to one and hope to get to 1/2 cup by next week, and within a few weeks, to 0 and start drinking green tea. I dont LOVE green tea like I do coffee, but I dont mind it either. and whatever gets me through the caffiene withdrawals and craving for a hot bev.
I dug out my rebounder (my 3 year old is thrilled with that choice) and am going to use it 20-30 mins/day + going for walks on breaks at work & taking the dog out every night. I know I need to start using weights too....
Today so far:
B - 2 pieces sprouted grain bread (no oil) w/1/2 avocado & 1 tomato, w/dijon mustard and 3/4 TB of veganaise (love the taste, weaning down from my 2 TBSP/day habit on sandwiches), coffee w/coconut creamer, 1 TB sugar (I normally dont use this much sugar but my hubby got me a large coffee today)
Back later with my updated menu plan for the day.
another note; I love my nightly wine and juice. its a small glass, its very tasty and enjoyable, but my goal is to not have any Sunday-Friday and indulge in 1-2 small glasses on Sat night. If I dont see a change on the scale, I'll cut it out, along with bread, ww pasta & avo's.
I WILL DO IT THIS TIME!
