Haven’t updated for a few days – life’s been busy, but I haven’t fallen off the wagon or anything like that. The small gain earlier this week proved a “real” one, so I focused on getting that weight off. Success.
Veggies & eggs awesome, and the best things ever to eat for weight loss/maintenance. After two days of being really intentional about consuming vegetables, I feel so refreshed and ready to take on the world. Green smoothies generally have that effect on me. 🙂
In the past week… I’ve swapped out my protein powder for PB2 in my green smoothies. It saves me 100 calories & actually tastes much better. The flavor is stronger (and it’s one that I like.) I also decided to try hard-boiling eggs for the first time ever. They turned out great! 2 hard-boiled eggs have as much protein as a store-bought “protein bar” that’s chock-full of all kinds of icky stuff, and they keep me full for much longer. I may or may not have eaten seven yesterday…. (three for breakfast, two for a mid-afternoon snack, and two to hold me over before dinner.)
Weighed in today at 126.6, down from 128.2. It feels good to be back in the middle of my maintenance zone rather than at the high end. My husband was telling me that 128 is fine – yes, of course, but I don’t want 2 lbs to turn into 20. And I know from experience how quickly it can. 126 looks and feels much better on me than 128.
Hope everyone is having a great Friday!
