From the side ...
Today I wore a shirt to work that I haven't worn in about 3 years. I really love this shirt.
I think one of the last times I wore it was when I finished working on this song back in 2007 ...
Pretty cool right.
Anyways, it's been another successful week.
I'm still facing many of the same challenges, but I have been finding it easier to say no to certain things.
Also, I did have maybe a little more food than a usual meal at our cookout with friends Saturday night, but I planned ahead for it and made it up for it he next day. Planning and being prepared is absolutely key to everything everyday with this lifestyle change.
GOOD SNACK FOODS: I've had a ton of people ask me what I use for snacks. So here are some really good options that I've been eating alot of lately.
1) Genisoy Barbecue Soy Crisps - Kind of like chips, and good enough to fix the craving
2) SpecialK Protein Snack Bars - Many protein bars out there are good for protein , but outrageously bad for calories. This is a great one. Only 110 calories and 4 grams of protein. I have one almost every day with my lunch shake
3) Slim-Fast Protein Shakes - I have one for breakfast almost every day. Quick. Easy. Fills you up. Only 190 calories and tons of protein
4) Quaker Oats Quakes - I always have a few bags of different flavors. They rock. Fill you up. Lots of fiber and whole wheat. Great Snack.
5) Kellog's Fiber Plus Bars - Always as one of my snacks during the day in between meals. Good fiber.
If you notice, I try to keep lots of fiber and protein in my diet. I don't go overkill on protein, but I make sure I have good healthy protein every day and in every meal.
As always I have to say a special thanks to all of you supporters out there. I've had alot of people give me encouraging words and compliments etc this week. I know some of you have started taking this journey with you. Love it. Keep going, and don't quit.
I can't wait to see the 60's on the scale and I should be on track for that by a couple weeks from now.
For now, I'm just to keep on staying with it, and hopefully can keep seeing success.
