RECAP TIME!

I know I have been missing for sometime now I hope you gals are still around. Everyone should be a follower of the fb page because even If I don't post on here I do more often on fb and tumblr. I have been eating properly and consuming lots and lots of water. I am so happy that I was able to shed 15lbs in a months time. A lot of my followers want to know what I'm doing. Honestly I haven't take any additives to assist me I have just been eating right and staying away from soda. I feel great sleep is still a problem seeing as in how my shift doesn't allow me to have a normal 9 to 5 job. I usually a lot of times have my last meal between 7pm and 8pm I have started attending Weight Watchers just for the information and discipline. I think I'm going to have to switch centers because everyone there is old and Jewish and seldom can they relate to my food situation. If I had any tips as far as what I've been doing so far. 

  1. BREAKFAST IS A MUST
for me this was the hardest because I don't really like breakfast i.e. pancakes, sausage but I love eggs,fruit, orange juice so a typical breakfast looks like this.


I tried turkey bacon for the first time and honestly is wasn't that bad going to try lasagna tonight with turkey *crossing my fingers*
 
2. WATER WATER WATER AND SOME MORE WATER! 


Now I don't keep up with how many ounces are in cup and this and that so when going to work I know that two bottles of smart water or Fiji water (the largest one) will be my completed 8 cups of water a day. If you're like me and don't like the taste of water I strongly suggest a lemon wedge in your water. 

3. Fiber Time!

 Even Tho you may be eating right you may not be getting the proper amount of fiber on a daily basis and for this pill really helps me stay active in the bathroom area. Its not a laxative at all but fiber anyone who knows about fiber should know it makes you go to the restroom. since i don't like activia this is the next best thing.


these are just a few things that I'm doing or taking that is new to me any more tips you gals know I'm already willing to hear anything you throw out. I haven't really gone hard in the gym as of yet I go I walk/speed walk for a about a hour and that it no more no less. In time I will be running at lighting speed but I am understanding enough to know Rome wasn't built overnight and neither will this great healthy life of mines either.

  2. Good for u on the weight lost. Weight watchers is a great program, I.was on it before at my job. Please switch locations fast because you want to go some where that you like and have fun and hear what ppl is struggling w/ and what they did to resolve it. Download the point calculator on ur phone this was also a great tool. Whenever you want a work out buddy I'm down, I'm just a phn call away. Call me if you have any questions.

  5. My friends used to jokingly tease me about how healthy I ate during high school (some still do), but my eating habits are really terrible now. I'm addicted to soda (even though it used to make me gag) and I can't go a day without some kind of junk food.
    I'm not necessarily trying to lose weight but I do want to cut out sodas and super sugary drinks, drink more water, eat 3 meals a day at regular times, try to include fresh fruit or veggie with every meal, and try to eat from what I cooked at home as much as possible. Its actually been pretty hard trying to break those bad habits.
    Anyway, I wish you continued success.

    1. so anyone who knows me like in real life knows that i used to love me some pepsi. I mean it was so bad till the point I was have Kidney problems that was enough to scare me. I will not say I stopped cold turkey I went from 4 sodas a day to one to a diet coke to I haven't had a full can in about 4 weeks now. so I know trust as far as junk food that hasn't been much of a problem as much as eating late and three meals a day. due to my shift and work schedule I tend to eat late hours. I would love to hear how you are doing keep me posted and I'll keep you as well.

  6. The FIBER is a must!!!! Trust your bathroom habits will change and the water helps but I am finding fiber or a laxative is necessary (laxatives are the worst!)...so find and take the fiber!

  7. Congrats on your lifestyle change! If you ever get tired of buying bottle water you should check out water bobbles..they come in like three different sizes, basically it's a water bottle with a built in charcoal filter. I LOVE MINE! :0)

  8. That's awesome! I too have adapted to a healthier way of living. I drink (4) 32oz water bottles a day! Water is the key! Exercising and eating healthier will result in weight losee. Oh yes the fiber intake is important too! Good luck to everyone on their healthier lifestyle quest.
