WL Progress

Today I bought a new set of scales - I'm getting serious. While I'm not brave enough to publish on here, I will be keeping tabs closely. It measures weight, fat %, water %, muscle mass, BMI and BMR. I took my first readings tonight - October 1st.

Trust me, I'll be all over it in the morning to see if anything shifted. For my log, I'm including the times I eat also now - I'm assured by Billy this is as important as what I eat, therefore I'm coming clean.

Here's my eats for today...
8.00am - Breakfast - Kashi cereal with milk, grapes, yogurt (carb)
10.30am - Snack - Celery and peanut butter (protein)
1.00pm - Lunch - Baked potato (4 patties of butter), brocolli, green beans, grapes (carb)
3.30pm - Snack - Celery and hummus (protein)
5.45pm - Snack - Banana, peach and blueberry smoothie (carb)
8.00pm - Dinner - Chicken and cheese Lean Cuisine, sugar free jello and coolwhip (protein)

Gym - 30 mins cardio

I didn't cheat at all today. I still want to get rid of one of the snacks, but I find I have to snack if I'm going to the gym just to get a bit more energy. The smoothie does a terrific job at that. Here's the recipe

8 ice cubes (big ones!!)
1 banana
4 frozen pieces peach
half cup blueberries
half cup milk
half cup water
2 equal sweetener packages

Blend until smooth - you may need a little more water. Makes about a pint and a half.....and it's ALL good for you!

The one thing I am liking is now that I'm on Billy's diet, he's keeping me honest. At least twice a week he asks what I've been eating and if I'm cheating. I have to say with the exception of wanting cheese on my baked potato at lunch and when I eat sushi I'm doing OK. Luckily I'm not that fond of pizza so it's alright.

Haven't had chocolate in over 2 weeks....and am over the habit. don't even think about it now - wooohooo.

Another good thing - I've found a source of ephedra...that'll definitely help the weightloss. When Penny and I did the dieting thing a few years ago and we used Metabolife/lite....we both lost lots of weight. I'm hoping for the same thing this time around. I'll le tyou know how it goes.
