Success! I was on track no deviation no (delicious treat) could get in my way. It is craft season and the holidays are coming! This means that there are lots of opportunity to say no thank you to sweets and savoury treats. A lot of my friends and family have made great changes in their eating habits this year and it is wonderful to see everyone healthier, happier and sexier! When you feel good about your choices you not only pat yourself on the back but there is some pride of self that you are reaching your goal! You can also inspire the people around you!
A life long trait for myself is the reward/punishment of eating food. I have done this pattern since I was a teenager and now that I am aware I am more observant and kind to myself.
Normally I make my husband very aware that I am on a (diet-I hate that word), cleanse, lifestyle change, regime etc. Yesterday he would ask would you like a chocolate and I would laugh and he would immediately remember Oh my gosh honey I totally forgot I am sorry. So to me this means I haven't been so winy about this process. Yes I have not been very pleasant because of the emotions that have come up but it is never about the food (for me).
The total loss for 1 week has been 10 lb. (ok my scale isn't the greatest so I will see when I get to work what the digital scale says).
A few things to remember I will probably gain 3-5 lb. on average once I start eating carbs again. I will be going into phase two tomorrow to slowly introduce my own protein at lunch time for 14 days.
The goal for me was to help me make better choices and eliminate sugar cravings. Lets not forget I want to wear my skinny jeans over the holidays!!
FOod:
Crispy cereal for breakfast with a touch of cinnamon
lunch on the go I had the Ideal protein fruit yogurt. It was really great it has been a long time since I've had it and I liked it for a lunch time meal. I had a large salad at Sobey's with a boiled eggs, ham, bacon and caesar dressing( I always look at the label it had the least amount of sugar and carb it was not a calorie wise dressing they add more sugar to replace the fat)
Supper I made a eggplant, green pepper and zucchini stir fry with pork. I added a little black bean sauce to give it a little flavour (not appropriate for phase 1 really because of the sugar)
For my snack I had the vanilla pudding
Have a great day
Nadine
