I found it!....Maybe

So I've been searching and searching for what will work for me. Just a low calorie diet doesn't work. Adding more exercise doesn't work. Diet pills don't work, Green smoothies for breakfast don't work.

I went to my doctor on Monday and she said that you REALLY need to get your 5 servings of fruits and veggies daily. Our bodies really need that much.

So this week, I had a plan. First, try to cut carbs down. Second, try to get the recommended fruits and veggies per day into my diet. Here's what I've eaten all week.

Breakfast: 1 scrambled egg with a small amount of cheese and a small handful of turkey sausage on a whole wheat tortilla.

Mid morning snack: 1 pk of Belveta whole grain breakfast biscuits.

Lunch: Soup

Mid afternoon snack: Side salad

Dinner: Green smoothie

This seems to be working and I think it's easy enough to stick to for a while. I know I'm not going to be able to keep this up for the weekend, but I have a plan for the weekend. We are having company over for Dinner on Saturday so I am making a lasagna with zucchini instead of pasta noodles. And Sunday I am making dinner for my in laws, a low carb enchilada bake. So we'll see how that goes with the success I'm having with the other stuff. Wish me luck!!

Friday Again

So I've been really down this week. My husband and I have been having some issues.Stuff that I think is important, doesn't seem like it's important to him. So that's life.

So that and plus the fact that the measly little 3 pounds I had lost, I gained all back, really didn't make me a happy camper. Well, now I'm finally going back down. lost about 1.5 of that 3, so that's happy.

I have made a doctor's appointment for later this month, maybe she can give me some help on why I'm not making any progress. Wish me luck.
