Heyy!
This week has been fairly normal - comparatively 😛 .
I have been having crazy headaches for about the last week, with
that being said I don't think it has anything to do with the diet,
the weather has been all over the place.
I have my check in on Wednesday, so until then I have no moving
forward changes.
I'm exercising more, with the worry that I will wake up with all the
work behind me, and having to start over again.
My dreams are fruit focused witch is crazy odd to me, buuutt okay... 😛
I don't really have anything else to write about. It's short this time, with
a hope that better things are coming!
Keep up your food journey, you got this!!
Thats all for now, thanks for reading!
I'll be back soon!

Heyy!
The last little while has been easier, the diet is like second nature now,
and the intense cravings have gone, along with the awful headaches, which
everyone I know calls withdrawal headaches, and they sucked!
So last Saturday I had my check in with the doctor. It was great, more questions were answered, everyone is
super friendly and very encouraging. It's and awesome environment to
be in when embarking on this 'journey'.
I lost 7 pounds of fat and 1 1/2 pounds of water, it wasn't a lot, but it's a
start! annnd also a great motivator! It makes me want to succeed and meet
my goals. Some times it's still hard, and I'm not going to lie sometimes I
worry some how I'll put it all back on in the 2 week in between time, but
finding out I lost weight made me feel so good like this is possible, and I can do it!
I'm still on the first phase of the plan, but I'm not really frustrated with it anymore on the daily, don't get me wrong sometimes I just want to scream
and eat A SANDWICH!!! But I know now that meal prep is important, and if
I just take a second to calm down there is a bunch of things I can eat in the
house!
I know this is going to take a bit of work, but I'm ready! And with the support of my family I know
I can do this! Just remember to always keep an open mind when
trying something new, and that if you mess up once its okay as long
as you keep going! Persistence is key with anything that is worth
working for!
Anyone else trying something similar remember: You can do it!
That's all for now, thanks for reading!
I'll be back soon!

Heyy!
So since the last post I have been feeling mostly better.
The crazy headaches have stopped, and the stomachaches (mostly)
have completely gone, however; some new things have cropped up.
So here's whats been going on since the last post.
Lets just start with Easter, and yes Easter in my family is heavily waited
towards religion, with that being said I have young nieces, so the Easter
bunny and his chocolaty treats have a fair focus. And yes I have resisted
but its incredibly hard when an adorable 3 year old wants you to share
her treats.
So I have made it through
the long weekend diet intact.
Now that I have made it past
what my mom likes to call the 'diet detox' I just want things that I used to eat but
shouldn't now, cheese being one of the biggest wants, which may sound odd, I mean
don't most people want snack foods? But I would be so happy right now with a
gooey delicious grilled cheese!
I mean don't get me wrong occasionally I would really enjoy some
Tostitos, or popcorn, but really I mostly want to devour some yummy cheese
and bread.
I have been researching like
crazy food that would be following the layout of what I should eat, and that
isn't the typical 'boring diet food' a different until I reach step 2. Finding foods
that follow the rules hasn't exactly been easy; however, since I thoroughly
enjoy various seafoods there are plenty of soups and poaching techniques that
sound real good, and I cannot wait to try.
Another thing that I find I can enjoy is various ethnic veggie dishes, curried
cauliflower is delicious.
I also have been looking up dishes and tweaking them slightly, such as sweet
potato chicken bites made without the sweet potato which turned out awesome!
So what I have learned so far is that meal prep is very important! Nobody likes to try and figure out what to make
for dinner when they've been out all day, their hungry, and dieting, thats just
a fact! 😛 So we meal prep. Prepping also ensures you will have good snacks
when you have to leave the house in a rush, so you aren't hungry during the day
and stuffing on bad foods.
Well thats all for this week
I'm working, and trying my best and not to sound cheesy or like a bad poem but, its
one day at a time.
If you are attempting a new healthier life style I encourage you to preserver it can be
hard but see it through, It'll work out in the end, It'll be okay! Keep it up!
Thats all for now, thanks for reading!
I'll be back soon!
