285.2 - End of week two


Not as much downward momentum this week, but I'll take it.

I did take a bit of a detour after Mom left because I was a bit depressed for a couple of days, so I didn't stay on task.  But, I quickly regrouped and got back on my targeted eating plan.

I have noticed a huge difference in energy.  I have actually found myself jogging up the stairs at work.  I'm thinking more clearly and don't have issues with focusing at work.

My sample daily diet is a banana/strawberry/spinach/carrot smoothie with almond milk for breakfast; a huge salad for lunch with a tablespoon of chipotle ranch dressing, and dinner I try to have a little chicken, turkey, or fish for some protein.  I have been tempted to go mostly vegan, but I found out when I did vegan before that I have a vitamin B deficiency and have to take supplements if I don't eat animal products.

Checking out gyms this week.  I want to add three days of weight a week training in addition to walking a few miles every day.

Off to work this morning.  Hope you each have a day blessed beyond belief!

Thanks for your continued support!

286.2 - End of week one

Down a few pounds this week.  Four pounds to be exact.  I've substituted a smoothie for breakfast every morning, had a fresh salad for lunch every day, and then a reasonable dinner.

Mom and Aunt Sandra are leaving on Tuesday morning to head back to North Carolina.  I plan to do a smoothie diet after they go home.  I'll have to let James plan his own meals for a while.

Slowly making progress.  Thanks for the support!
