day 42 Ideal protein can help you lose the weight!

crispy cereal

porc loin and steamed brocoli

vanilla bar

Day 42 I can't believe the number when I get on the scale! Yes I have lost a large amount of weight in the past but I was also going to the gym 6 days a week working out 2hrs : 60 min cardio and full body weight training and stretching! I've been going for walks but that is all. I really am going to get back into yoga because I really love the stretching. 


FOOD is the major key to weight loss and how you eat will affect your body's way of dealing with the calorie intake. We don't really think of that when you have a craving or there's something delicious in front of you brain says yes but have we ever though of what our body wants? Why are anti-acid medication so popular? Isn't that our body's way of saying NO NO NO this is not good for me!? 
I feel like a sleep better, I am better connected to my needs like when I am stressed I know that I should relax. I only get hungry at 8am ,12pm and 5pm and my snack is at around 7:30pm I try to keep this consistent as possible. If I do get hungry in between I know that it's time for water or a herbal tea. It is all about choices and I find the ideal protein really helps me make the right choices until I realized yes veggies are sweet and I like how I feel when I am eating them. So thank you Ideal protein for your single fulling pack of delicious nutrition.


Food for the day


I had the crispy cereal for breakfast! IT is my favourite no restriction breakfast because I don't have to cook in the morning. I like this so much I would probably have it for lunch too!


Lunch I had the cheese and broccoli with a delicious romaine salad with cooked multi-colored peppers!


For super I had a pork loin with steamed broccoli Holly that was a broccoli kind of day! This was super fast and easy to make I put little soy sauce on the broccoli for a little flavour.


For my snack I had the vanilla bar I wanted something sweet! THis is coated top and bottom with white chocolate and a drizzle of white chocolate as well! This has a firm protein texture.

day 42 Not feeling the sugar hang over this morning are you?

Day 42


 I have to share with you I've been missing on my REM sleep because of a sick kitty but he's getting better already. It's times like these that I would normally gravitate towards food for comfort but I am so full with all the protein that I am totally satisfied in the food department. So as a relax alternative I  went for an amazing body massage with Acupuncture with Katie Pertus at the be well spa 422-2767. I've been doing massage for years because I have a physical job and a do a lot of repetitive movements so these treatments are more for maintenance. Although I have to share with you that Katie noticed that this was the best my muscles have ever felt! I think it is do to the lack of sugar in my diet. Sugar causes inflammation in the body so I find this very interesting also I've been taking all the vitamins and minerals to help support my diet as well. Other things that I've been doing to relax is writing my dream and goals down, I listen to guided meditation ( it's better than watching TV) and going to bed earlier. I am talking around 9:30pm!


For breakfast I had the crunchy cereal with a pinch of cinnamon




For lunch I had eggs and a large salad ( wait you're wondering were my ideal protein lunch is ) I was at my parents house for lunch so I had an egg protein this time!


FOr super I had roasted chicken breast and cooked peppers and celery


For my snack I had the peanut soy snacks!


I was not tempted by chocolate because I didn't buy any so that's how you avoid that hurtle. I did get my husband a origami chocolate treat. 

That was my day in food 
Have a great day
