So the inspiration to blog about losing weight hit me today! I only have about 10-20 lbs to lose tops but oh my goodness has it been hard. Starting back January 1, I was doing Weight Watchers and working out religiously. For 2 months the scale did not budge. Yes I know I could have gained some muscle but not that much muscle to make the scale not move. To break the plateau, I did lo-carb for a while. Don't really love lo-carb as a lifestyle but it helped enough to drop 5 lbs. Now I am trying to follow the Eat Clean diet and principles by Tosca Reno with attempting to do somewhere between Cooler Pack 1 and 2. **Note - Not following it 100% but somewhat close.
Diet today was -
breakfast:
Oatmeal with dark chocolate and flax (bending the rules yes)
1 scrambled egg and egg white
mid-morning snack:
plain tuna mixed with 2 tablespoons of 1% cottage cheese
1 cup fresh pineapple
lunch:
1/2 plain sweet potato
turkey burger plain
spinach with balsamic vinegar
*love the sweet potatoes but would rather have steamed spinach
snack:
whey protein shake with fat-free milk
dinner:
turkey burger and steamed spinach
I am down a few pounds since Monday. Let me remind you the Easter was this weekend so I partaked and the scale reflected it Monday.
