Week Seven Results

I lost three pounds!   I am so happy!   I was careful about keeping a food journal and that helped me see how many veggies I was really eating and how many calories.   I tried to keep it around 1800 calories a day following clean,  nutritious foods.   I also exercised every day 30 min to an hour.  Feeling great!

Crab and Shrimp Stuffed Avocados

Black forest mushroom soup

Wholesome and warm.   I got this recipe from www.drfurman.com

Vegetable breakfast

I'm changing up my breakfast.  All the raw oats were causing problems with my digestion.   Now I'm eating 2 scrambled eggs with veggies: spinach, mushrooms,  onions and tomato.   I'm feeling much better!

Snack time!

I love chips and salsa as a snack!   This is a much healthier version.   Fresh veggies give me the crunch.   Black beans with a dash of garlic powder,  cumin,  and 1/4 cup salsa are the prefect spicy and protein packed dip!

Turkey spinach wrap

One of my favorite lunches.   Tasty and fast!

1 whole grain tortillas
2 slices Turkey
Spinach
Tomato
Guacamole

Wrap up and enjoy!

Week six results

I am so proud of myself.   I went out of town last week to celebrate the homecoming of my brother from his two year mission to Brazil.  There was tons of good food, eating at restaurants and opportunities to cheat.   I had all five kids by myself for the seven hour cat ride.  It was a challenge but I was prepared!  

I brought a small cooler of fruits,  veggies,  while grain wraps, my almond milk and oats.  That covered all my snacks,  lunches,  and breakfasts.   When we ate out,  I always got a salad or lettuce wraps with no dressing,  just avocado on the side.   I did have a few bites of cheesecake and 1/2 slice of cake another night,  but I kept the treats at that.  I also got up 30 min early each day and exercised.    

I didn't lose weight,  but I didn't gain any either!   That hasn't happened for years!   I always gain weight when I travel!   I'm super proud of myself!
