Good morning! Today is the first day in my new way of eating. I am also planning to head to the gym 3 mornings a week, but that will start next week since we start school again this week and I homeschool my daughter. Thought it would be better to get back into the swing of things before adding something new.


So here's my vital stats on Day One:
Age: 34
Height: 5'5"
Weight: 214.8 as of this morning
Health: overall pretty good. BP is low as always, BS is just fine.

Breakfast:
2 hard boiled eggs
1 mug hot tea w/ stevia

Lunch:
Crappy salad from Cabela's with 2 tbsp ranch as that was all they had...should have had the pulled pork...

Dinner:
Roasted chicken, mainly dark meat
carrots that roasted w/ the chicken
steamed broccoli w/ vinegrette
home canned applesauce w/ no added sugar
salad w/ cukes, tomatoes, beets, walnuts, strawberries and Garlic Expressions dressing...I've got to either find or make a similar substitute since it's really the only thing I eat on my salads

Should I post quantity now or wait to see if I'm not getting results and then tweak it a bit?

I'll have to find one! I'm sure with all the Christmas pics that were taken there is at least one of me somewhere!

Save up for a new wardrobe!

Day 3!!

Breakfast:
Half of a two-egg omelet with broccoli, ham, salsa and a little cheese
bowl of strawberries
cup of hot tea w/stevia

-I wasn't as hungry as I thought. When I woke up I thought I was, but the longer it took me to get breakfast ready, the less hungry I became. Tomorrow I'll see what it's like if I just drink a cup of tea first.

Lunch:
2 bowls of Paleo Italian Wedding soup
1 small orange
iced tea

Dinner:
Leftover pork
broccoli w/ a red wine vinigrette
Handful of grapes

Day 5!

Breakfast:
hot tea
I woke up and I just wasn't hungry! Guess I'll wait till lunch. I'm taking my baby out to Chipolte. It's her favorite place to eat that's not Chinese! She loves the food there. Although I think it's the sour cream. She'll just eat it with a fork if I let her! Silly baby!

Lunch:
Burrito bowl from Chipolte w/ a little rice, pork, pinto beans(I am a southern raised girl, what can I say!), fresh tomato salsa, corn salsa(I won't do that again) a little sour cream and cheese. I'll have to wean myself off what I normally get to work on something new. But yeah for me! I made it through the whole lunch without one chip!

Snack:
handful of raspberries

Dinner:
Tacos in lettuce w/ beef, squash, zuchinni, red onion, green pepper, guac, salsa and a tiny bit of cheese
2 clementines

My weekend went off the rails, but I am starting fresh today

Breakfast:
egg white omelet w/ broccoli, cheese, salsa
2 strips bacon
bowl of berries (5 strawberries, 1/4 c. raspberries)

Lunch:
1/2 cup wonton soup
1/2 egg roll
1 c. chicken lo-mein
1 dark chocolate peanut cluster
1 fortune cookie

Dinner:
4 turkey/pork meatballs
1/2 c. marinara sauce
