Week 1 Meals

 Okay then, week one is in the bag!

Notes:

  • I have pantry and fridge stuff to use up so I only hit about 80% plant-based (but 100% vegetarian, woohoo!) Not bad for week one. I'm aiming for a higher percentage next week. The meals/snacks in red included dairy and eggs. 
  • Most days I had a snack between breakfast and lunch, between lunch and dinner, then a couple of muffins around 8:30 PM. Yes, I ate 14 muffins this week. They're made from rolled oats ground into a flour. Tasty, healthy, and filling.
  • All recipes and food notes are in the Week 1 Recipes page.
  • I'm ridiculously pleased with myself. I have way more energy than last week. And the scale indicates that I'm down a couple of pounds!

TW: An oops moment

Okay so when you review this week's food log, you'll see that I had a mini-binge of cheetos and chocolate chip cookies. I don't know why I did this.  I'm tired and my allergies are out in full force, so all I can think is that my resistance was down. Funny, isn't it? One can down nearly an entire bag of junk food with nary a conscious thought. Anywho, I've moved on. It wasn't a huge binge. And I felt sick enough later that night that the lesson should stick with me for awhile. I have noticed that I ate perhaps a bit too lightly post-binge, a combination of an upset tummy and wanting to turn things around. Not a great idea though, as after that, I was ravenous again. Slow and steady wins the race. Slow and steady wins the race.

Week 5 Meals

Another week, another pound or so lost. After 5 weeks, I'm down 10 pounds. This week was rough. I've got some sort of respiratory thing going on - runny nose, cough, sore throat - that's kicking my butt. I also had a six-month ultrasound for a sus thing in my breast (luckily, it was a tad smaller than the last time, so they're thinking it's a benign cyst. Have to go back in 6 months for another scan.) So yeah, a kind of stressful week. But I got through it with much less food-coping that I would've done a month a go. I am proud of me :-) So onward to week 6.

Greetings, fellow Earthlings of Size

Hello there and welcome to my blog.  I will be documenting my weight loss adventure on these pages. Have I lost half my bodyweight? Well, no, not yet. But I will. Because I don't want to be fat any longer. Hear me out. I don't care if you, fellow Earthling, are big or small or tall or short, as long as you love yourself and are happy and healthy. But for me, the size I am does not make me happy and I'm definitely not healthy. I'll share more in future posts.  I am by nature a very private person. I wasn't always fat. Ten years ago I was a size 2/4. Now I'm a size 18/20. Over these past ten years I've tried so many ways to drop the weight, none of which has worked. But this time it will.  So, from the start, I am documenting every thing I eat and how it affects me. I'll post a weekly summary of my meals and snacks, and will add in a weight check now and then. I'm currently on Day 5 of this adventure, so on Day 8 I'll publish the first week of food...
