After my upsetting week last week following weight watchers I choose to see my weight differently. I asked the universe for help. I immediately got to my life coach but then I got an email from my cousin. It was actually her second email regarding a book called <br /> . My cousin’s first email was explaining about the book before she knew I was struggling. The second email was following my blog post where she was more insistent that…
I had another week where I gained weight on weight watchers for no reason. I was very upset and angry and so I cheated. A lovely cycle. Feeling even worse now I started on a dark path of negative thoughts. I started to google the various surgeries that are out there for overweight people. I even filled out one of the doctors forms for more information. I was turned down because my BMI is too low. I started searching medication…
I was perfect this week. I tracked my food each day. I was within my point range. I didn’t consume my weekly points. I worked out to the best of my ability 5 days this week. I stayed off the scale so I didn’t let it dictate how I ate. I was excited to weight in at the end of the week. My result…I gained 1.2 pounds. I kid you not. At first I was like WTF but realized this…
I’ve done a lot of yo-yo dieting for the last few years. I for the first time started gaining weight in years on my weight watchers Maintainence plan. When I tried to actually do the weight watchers diet I wasn’t losing weight. I went off strict vegan and added fish. I went off vegan completely and tried keto. I went back to strict vegan. I’ve been all over. The only thing I can show for it is another 5lb weight…
I never admitted this to anyone until the other day when I told my Noom coach and my life coach. I am sure people suspected and some saw evidence. I am and have always been a closet binge eater. I do it at periodic times. I go through phases. I’ve even learned how to maintain my weight or even to lose weight while doing it. I can remember all the way back to when I was 10 years old buying…
I guess it was inevitable that once you put the carbs back the weight comes back as well. It didn’t take long and was actually a little alarming. At first I gained ever pound I lost within a week. That was disheartening but then it leveled off and I took off a couple of pounds. I’m still up five pounds but so be it. Why I changed? At first Keto was yummy. When you haven’t eaten cheese and butter for…
I am still doing this all these months later. I now eat between the hours of 11-7. I also don’t usually drink my coffee until 11 as well. The truth is I haven’t lost weight from this but I haven’t gained weight either. I have to agree with the doctors that losing weight when you lose mobility is very difficult. I sit most of the time so I don’t burn as many calories as the average person. I do try…
I am finishing up the meat in my house and going back to a more plant based vegan diet. I switched to Keto to change things up and it did. I lost the most of the 10lbs I gained over the last year but I don’t like really eating this way. I miss my fruits and veggies. I miss my soups. I hate eating the cheese and I hate the butter. It was good at first but now I’m just…
So week two is done and I lost another 2lbs. I think it is sufficient to say this was the diet for me over weight watchers. I am doing a strict Keto diet according to my Lifesum app https://lifesum.com/. I set my levels for 6% carbs, 20% protein and 74% fat. I did buy the Keto test strips and I do test my urine each morning. It has been the same since about day 4 at a moderate level. I’ve…
I must say, I found it pretty easy to do but I had help. I had a menu planner that I purchased for a small price from your Keto diet https://usa.yourketo.diet/. I used that and an app for tracking called Lifesum https://lifesum.com/. It’s really the app that has been a huge help. It lets me track all my food and helps me figure out my targets in each category. I can see if I’m short in fats, high in carbs…
