Default I did it!

Two hours later, walk is done. Of course I had to get on my case because instead of giving myself props for walking the 5 miles I was irritated that it took me so long. Hello? Didn't I just start walking again? But of course I am hard on myself and I expect myself to already be running crying out loud. Unbelievable!

5 miles is amazing! My goal is to make it to 2. I know I can do 1 but pushing myself to walk 2 without stopping feels scary. Gonna give it a go with all of this good inspiration!

Tiger - You need to give yourself a hug and a huge pat on the back for getting back into the routine of walking and taking better care of you! Good progress!

I have not lost one ounce this week but nor have I gained.

Given my current state of mind; I'll take it.

Congrats to all on your own journey through the minefield of healthy eating.

My weigh-in is tomorrow and I'm kinda excited because I know I lost the 2 pounds I gained last week and might have lost another 1/2 -1 lb or so.

Just got back from the Farmer's Market and some yard sales. The yard sales sucked - It has rained off and on for several days so the only folks out were people that wanted $8 for used sweatshirts.

Farmers market yielded peppers and onions, yellow squash, jalapenos, plums, and a few peaches.

Congratulations on the accomplishments this week. And thank you for sharing the good news on today's weigh-ins and your ability to maintain. As I was reminded in this thread, not gaining is also good thing!

And thank you for the encouragement and support.

Good Evening Everyone,

I went to the gym in my apartment complex tonight and I did a total of 45 arm curls between working out on the exercise bike and treadmill. I burned over a 100 calories on the exercise bike alone!

I'm going to switch it up between power walking and doing the arm curls...

Have a good night,

Zimmy

Default Holy crappola!

Weigh-in day today revealed a 5.2 pound weight loss!!!!

I got the nasty little note from WW telling me that I was losing too fast and to slow it down. Hey, that's the 2 pounds I had gained last week plus another 3-pound loss. I have been watching it pretty hard this week and put into action all of the stuff I said I was going to do last week.

Moved more.
Drank more water.
Got more sleep.

It worked!

Well...I made the decision and took the plunge...

Yesterday was day one of the new eating plan....much more lean protein, non-starchy veggies, healthy fats and whole fruit....much, much, much less grains and starchy veggies.

It was an exercise in thinking differently and making different choices.

Scoote and I went out to breakfast since she had been told to eat a very hearty breakfast before her 2 day "liquids only" fast before a medical test and was craving sausage gravy and biscuits. We went to Bob Evans....where I would usually indulge in sausage, biscuits, hash browns, etc. Instead I had sirloin steak (small) and eggs, subsituted fresh fruit for the potatoes, and limited myself to half a biscuit (just enough to sop up the egg yolks). It was delicious, and easy...just not what I'd usually order.

Lunch was a big salad with lean turkey, tomatoes, carrot, lettuce, cucumber....very easy on the dressing.

Dinner was a slice of very lean ham...in a shallow pan with an extremely large serving of broccoli and a little carrot...in enough water to steam and heat it all up.

Snacks were yogurt and fruit.

My fasting blood sugar this morning was 106...a good number.

This while be a big change, but it's a very healthy step for me, particulary with regard to the diabetes. And, I'm sure it will result in some weight loss as well...always a good thing.

This sounds terrific, it sounds like you are using something like the glycemic index as a guide; though I do not have diabetes I understand this can work very well. I know that when I dropped grains from my eating my energy went through the roof and losing weight became much simpler. Re-educating the palate takes time, no doubt about it, but the results can be dramatic.

Congratulations on the new plan.
