Bearer of Good News

Well, well, well! Did ya miss me? So, I am assuming you want to know how my week went with my new diet. Let me tell you, it was G-R-E-A-T! Back on the last week of September (2 weeks ago) I decided to be more careful with my food intake. When I starter the actual diet (1 week ago) I had lost 6 lbs. Tuesday was my weight-in at the Dr's and I lost an additional 4.8 lbs. That's 10.8 lbs in 2 weeks. WOO HOO! I'm sure people might not like the fact that I am not doing it completely natural. Injections and pills??? Well, the injections is a mixture of vitamins that basically gives me a boost of energy (that I definitely need), and the pills help suppress my appetite (I find I am not eating unnecessarily or over eating, specially when I am home bored). Staying within my 1200 calories, I thought it was going to be difficult, but with the meal planner I got from the doctor and not feeling starved all the time it has helped tremendously. I don't have a gym membership yet, but I don't think I need to spend all of that money unless I need to lift some dumbbells. I have been opting in for walking instead of driving whenever I can, and doing some cardio workouts in front of my TV set with the cable's "Sports & Fitness On Demand" channel.

Here are some of the things I ate this past week:

Yogurt Smoothie & Wheat Toast w/Peanut Butter

1/2 of an IHOP Simple & Fit Meal

Rice, Green Beans & Cubed Steak (PR Style)

Rice with Turkey Meatballs

 

 

Spinach salad with Chicken & Fruit
