Well it's been 40 days since my last weigh in and I haven't lost a pound. I haven't gained. But alas I haven't lost either. So what's happened sine then? Well, Spring Break...I was on vacation for 2 weeks back home at mamma's house. That translates to not eating as well as I would have liked.
The interesting thing that happened while on vacation...is I went to see a nutritionist and he informed me after a battery of blood tests that I was very anemic. He doesn't like prescribing pills so his advice to me was liver twice a week until my levels come back up. That has been like a light bulb and now I can feel a difference in terms of energy levels etc.
What does that mean for my diet? Until I figure out why I am so depleted I have been advised to cut out things that interfere with iron absortion: caffeine (coffee/tea), dairy, whole grains and bran and certain veggies. Looks like I'm on a forced Fat Flush Phase 1 for a while! We'll see the results!
