Over the Plateau!

Apr 21, 2014

I weighed myself on Friday, was stuck at 320.  After my 6 lb weight gain in a matter of a day (still dunno how that happened), I have been back and forth with 2-3 lbs for over a month.  I would lose a lb, then gain 2, then lose one, then lose one.... it was driving me insane!  I had to think about what I was doing that I could improve and kick start my loss again.  Well, I started drinking protein shakes every day! I would make it with my collection of protein powder packs that I have gotten to test out, and mixing it with ice, skim milk, some vanilla Carbmaster yogurt, and fresh frozen berries. 

I can only assume that is what did the trick, because here it is Monday and I somehow lost 3 lbs over the weekend!!!  So I am back down to 317 after a 2 month flip flop of weight.  I will measure myself again in about 2 more weeks to see if I lost any inches. 

I worked out 7 days this week also, that was a first!  I am now on my 8th day tomorrow and I am feeling it!  Everyone says I need a day or two to rest, but I don't push myself to the point where I can't barely move, so I think I am doing ok for now.  

I found a good balance of food I can eat with my smoothies, and still not go over calories!  :)

I noticed also, if I do a smoothie on my way to work, I feel better by the time I get there, and I don't have that drop in Blood Sugar by 10am.  I think I am on to something here!! :)
