So I've reached a week and am doing really well. I need to go upstairs and weigh but it's freezing in the house and I don't want to undress right now. I will weigh tonight and post my results so far. I alternate between feeling like I've lost a couple of pounds to feeling like a huge cow. Oh how lovely. Controlling the eating is actually easier than not have a beer, or a cocktail when I want it. I'm not trying to quit drinking but do imagine cutting back would help my cause. If nothing else has been accomplished this week it's been an incredible awareness of making better eating choices.
Still lots of egg whites for breakfast, salads to lunch (I made a cauliflower one I really like) and light fish, or soup for dinner. I'm still cutting back on the bread products. Sunday's trip to the grocery store included lots of low-carb products very reminiscent of the south beach days.
I didn't post yesterday because I was watching my 8 month old nephew. Taking care of 2 kids is much harder than I ever anticipated. I've watched him before but man the older he gets the more challenging it is. They don't nap at the same time which means there isn't a minute to yourself. Plus my daughter decided not to nap at all yesterday so I had her all day. UGH..... I did get a nice long walk in though and my 24 minutes in the morning routine too.
Salmon for dinner tonight. I haven't figured out how I'll cook it yet. I made broiled tomatoes and steamed broccoli last night to go with the same tilipia dish I made last week.
I'll post the numbers later tonight.
wish me luck.
