I enjoyed reading about your weight loss pep talk. I'm curious about your food cravings, etc. I had a struggle getting "perfect" again. ( I kept eating too many meals, too close together.) Last week was my first perfect week since Christmas. Seriously, I rocked. I followed the program hook line and sinker to the tee. As a result I lost 6.9 last week. I am so happy, because now I feel I can really go for it. I learned a couple of things recently which have changed. I can have either 10 almonds or 7 walnut halves as a snack if needed. That has helped save a couple evenings for me. Most of the time I'm fine if I eat every three hours consistently. I don't get hungry until the third hour. If I get hungry before that, it's usually because I haven't had enough water. I'm drinking 4 to 5, 32 oz. bottles of water each day. I'm using ASEA bottles all around the house. As long as I stick with consistent every three hours, the evenings really aren't so bad. Deb mentioned that you eat every two hours. Perhaps it's different for men. Anyway, I just thought I'd share how I've had the most success:
6:00 a.m. - oatmeal - varied flavors
9:00
a.m. - shake - vanilla, strawberry or chocolate mint ice cream as a
shake - I add a scoop Nature's Sunshine powdered greens (can't remember
exact name.) and Liquid chlorophyll
noon - Lean and Green meal
2:45 - 3:00 p.m. - shake - vanilla or strawberry or the chocolate mint ice cream as a shake
5:00
- 5:30 p.m. - usually a pudding I've made up in the fridge or a bar
(bars don't keep me as satisfied, shakes are the best, puddings works as
long as I have some water, too.)
7:00 - 7:30 p.m. Last meal of the day - shake or pudding
8:30 - 9:30 Beddie-bye time.
For
my shakes I add as much ice as I can with 16 oz. of liquid. The more
like an ice cream shake, the better for me. When I do the Vanilla
shakes I sometimes add a 1/2 tsp. of vanilla and then sprinkle nutmeg on
top. Love it.
