- Limit my bread intake to once a day (one of the days last week I had a bread item 4 times and it was not wheat)
- Consume nothing after 8:00pm. I did well with this in the beginning but looking at my journal realized I loss focus a bit.
- Add more veggies and fruits.
- Continue to drink water.
Here is my food intake for yesterday: No eating after 8pm.
Breakfast:
2 Dannon Lite & Fit yogurts (strawberry & raspberry)
1 small slice wheat bread w/ 1 tsp of strawberry jelly
Lunch:
1 tossed salad w/ 2 Tbsp of Low Fat Balsamic Ving.
1 Fresh Fruit Cup (pineapple, honey dew, cantaloupe and grapes)
Snack:
50 Calorie String Cheese
Dinner:
4 oz Sirloin Steak w/ 1 oz of sauteed onions (I weighed the steak..gotta scale to keep it accurate)
1/2 c of broccoli
1- 3 oz potato (it was sooo tiny you would not believe me if I showed you)
1 tsp of brummel & brown (I put this on the potato w/ a sprinkle of seasoning salt)
That's all folks...and my water of course but nothing else went between these lips. I order myself some new workout dvd's that came in the mail so I will use them as my workout this evening.
Have A Great Day!!
Sha I have just added your blog to my favorite. I often time feel like diets fail do to the percieved disappointments encounter during the life style change (diet)process. Understand that your healthy life change has more to do with being healthy, than it does with the weekly lbs loss. Keep up the good work and I will be blogging my experience just like you soon. Look at the other factor when evaluating your sucess, bloody down, cholestol down, inches loss, etc...
ReplyDeleteGreat point Regina and while I do look at minimization and elimination of overall healthy issues if they exist (luckily for me I have none that I know of)it is so easy to focus on the scale number. I have gotten better but I would be telling a tale if I said I dont place a big emphasis on watching that number go down...even when I see the results in inches loss and the way my clothes are fitting.
ReplyDeleteThanks for keeping this in perspective for me and everyone else who has started their weight loss journey's...
