Here’s the deal and as crappy as it truly is you have to stop eating for two or three people. We have to acknowledge eating light and healthy meals is beneficial for our diet. This week I plan on sticking to my Meat Salad and Grapefruit grapes diet. This means I take three low fat meats, slice them up and add them to my organic spring mix salads, include a tomato and half a cucumber. This week I mixed it up somewhat by adding cut of broccoli heads.
This meal allows me to lose weight but still maintain a healthy lifestyle! I have my servings of vegetables, fruits and for now seeing this is lunch time it’s all that matters. Included with the lunch is one big glass of water. Avoid any fating drinks suck as cola’s or other juices.
What did I eat for breakfast?
Today I had a light breakfast as we always should but ensure we get some dairy and fruits. I took 2 sugar free yogurts and added half cup of sliced strawberries mixed it all together and that was my breakfast. Sometimes I add some fiber into the meal by eating an all bran bar during my 10am coffee break.
While I’m on the topic of coffee I would like to discuss the reality of how fattening a coffee could potentially be. Try to sue milk when you have more than one coffee. If you drink coffee a lot at work and you’re trying to lose weight you need to start thinking about what you’re adding to that black cup of liquid.
Since I first started exercising with the Wii Fit my biggest challenge was snaking and eating on the weekends. I have the most control Monday’s to Fridays but for some reason when the weekend hits I want to snack. I’m assuming it’s due to staying up later. Normally I go to sleep around 10pm and on the weekend that gets pushed to 1 or 2 am.
The best way to take control of my weekend snaking it to determine or compile a list of things I can to do in order to not think about snaking but still stay up late. During the week I drink lots of water in the evenings. This helps me psychologically not want to eat. If I get a craving for food I simply have a drink of my water and it fades away ever so slowly.
I don’t exercise during the weekends. As mentioned in my introductory posy I only do the Wii Fit Monday – Thursday. I was supposed to start doing the Wii Fit Fridays this month but it’s not looking good! For some reason I don’t have the motivation to add that extra day in my workouts.
Officially for the past month I have left the weekend gaining weight. Approximately I’ve been gaining 1-2 pounds per weekend. Come Wednesday this weight has been taken off and I start to go down again. As mentioned I’m currently sitting at 195 pounds and 6 weeks ago I was 205. That’s the heaviest I’ve ever been.
As I grow into a routine on the weekends I will keep you updated on my ideals and progress but as for now nothing happens. I’m assuming I will start walking in the evenings or mornings but to be honest my weekend is pretty packed right now and jammed for time. Groceries, laundry, cleaning the house and social activities keep me from working on my dieting and exercising.
That’s not to say I don’t have 30 minutes to get some exercise in I just haven’t dedicated the time slot yet. When I do my eating hobbits will change as well.
