First week of changing my eating.  This nutrition tracker has been super helpful with noticing good versus bad eating habits.  For example, I found out that I was not eating more than about 600 calories a day! No wonder why I couldn't lose weight! My body was in starvation mode.  The other thing I noticed was that sometimes I would get enough water, other times I wouldn't.  Finally, I noticed that I was not getting in nearly as much protein, over consumed with the idea of not taking in any carbs, and watching things that I honestly shouldn't care about at this point - like fat.

So, after a week of contientiously changing my habits, I am eating 1000-1100 calories a day.  I am back to eating 5-6 times a day.  I get in all my water.  I get in exercise pretty routinely.  And I've started to lose lbs again.  I'm debating getting a personal trainer to work out with me at the gym, but I'm waiting until my stamina increases a bit.  After surgery it's a little hard to get energy again.

What's been really nice is that my husband is doing this with me.  He has lost 3 lbs this week and inches all the way around.  I've made some pretty healthy meals each night and he looks forward to seeing what's going to be cooked each night.  Thank God for the crock pot!

Anywhoo .. that's where things stand.  I've scheduled a Holiday Clothing Exchange at my office for December 3rd!  Please come check it out and hit my webpage for more information.
