So, I have been preoccupied with just about everything this week and have not spent as much time on FS. I can say that I have lost 6 pounds since starting SBD and my total weight loss since December 1 is 17 pounds!! I can feel the difference in some of my clothes, my sweats are much looser around the waist, my yoga pants and loose and saggy in the butt and I am nowhere near as bloated in the belly! I am proud of myself and I am going to continue on this path.
Thursday was a snow day, but I spent an hour shoveling and than some more time outside in the snow with my 4 year old and than did a 40 minute Zumba workout that night!
[color=cyan]i have been making healthy food choices and sticking with this no-carb part during Phase 1. I did have like 3 pretzels the other day... but that was it and haven't done it since! I had the yummiest breakfast this morning, an omelet with green, pepper, onion and chopped broccoli... and I also made a few recipes from the SBD cookbook, like mini veggie quiche that I am freezing so I can have for breakfast every day. And sone crock-pot chili too... that was so good. I am really not all that hungry on this diet, which surprises me since I am always hungry. I have started chewing gum at night to so that way I won't get any ideas to snack late night.. little ways to trick myself! But it is working. One of my favorite thing on this diet is the ricotta cheese with cocoa powder, almond extract and a packet of equal... that is so tasty and its my little treat after dinner.
I got 10 1/2 weeks till Florida and I think I will definitely reach my goal... I have 20 pounds to go.... I am secretly hoping that I reach my goal and then some by the time I go to Florida.... That would be fantastic! But I do not want to get ahead of myself. I have been trying to take my weight loss in 20 pound increments so it doesn't seem like such a long road... but I am focused, and I don't know where exactly I got all this focus from, but here it is... and it can stay as far as I am concerned!!!!!
