I'm Back!
Hello everyone!
After a Christmas holiday filled with tons of food, I am back on track full force! I will have to reset my weightloss tracker pretty much back to what it was when I first began my journey, which is frustrating, but I feel much more confident I will lose the weight again because I've done it before and I have the knowledge and tools to do it again.
Last week, Joe and I watched a documentary called "Hunger for Change" on Netflix. It was beyond eye-opening. It told of the dangers of artificial sweeteners (which I was a huge fan of), white sugar, white flour and other processed food and drinks. That is when Joe and I made a promise to each other to cut these items out of our diet. There was a huge section on the benefits of juicing. We decided we would try to find a decently priced juicer and start juicing. In the meantime, we have the tools to smoothie instead :)
On January 2nd, we went grocery shopping. We purchased tons of fresh vegetables and fruit, skim milk and yogurt. Surprisingly this only cost $65.
Since January 2nd I have lost 10 lbs. Yes, TEN POUNDS! I am sure within that 10 lbs there is water weight, and excess crap from the holidays but 10 lbs nonetheless. One thing that we have been having for breakfast is a Green Smoothie. DELICIOUS! I am not lying. It has a banana and a bit of peanut butter which totally hides the taste of the greens. You can view the recipe here:
Along with my tried and true strategies such as using small plates, portioning my food accordingly at not eating past 8pm, I am well on my way to permanent weight loss :)
