1st week results weight lost and knowledge gained

My first goal is to lose 30 lbs. in 30 days. I do not expect anyone else to do this, but I am morbidly obese and everyone that has ever dieted knows that one loses more quickly at the beginning than in the following weeks and months and years. Today was my weigh in at TOPS and the news is ... I lost 6.8lbs.

What I did this past week, was weak.  I plan to be more strict about eating in the morning. I have a bad habit of NOT eating in the morning, which puts me eating too late in the evening to be healthy. Because I changed what I was eating, I did not plan or do much exercise. That also will have to change if I am to attain my goal.

How I did it:

This plan is a combo of diets that have worked for me in the past. Fit For Life & Eat Right 4 Your Type. I use the mentality of Fit For Life with the food suggestions from Eat Right 4 Your Type.

First and foremost I ask that God help me to remember that my body is a temple, not a trash can. Then, I get up and take my supplements with water and give at least 30 minutes before I eat my first breakfast of fruit. Fruit really gets the digestive track going and gives some quick energy.After at least an hour, I have second breakfast of protein and veggies. Usually eggs and onions, peppers, mushrooms, broccoli or spinach and a large spoonful of salsa. On occasion I skip the eggs and have a ground turkey patty loaded up with seasonings wrapped in a large leaf of bib lettuce with tomatoes and cucumber.

For lunch I have either a starchy vegetable like a sweet potato or squash and a huge salad or something like tuna salad and a veggie soup.

Dinner is something that I really love. I am a beef eater, I love steak or roast or a juicy burger. I eat any of those with no bread or starchy vegetable. I either have a nice salad or steamed vegetable like broccoli or sauteed spinach.

This past week I focused on food.I changed the type of food I put in my body, but I did not worry about portions at all. I ate until I was not hungry. This coming week I plan to make sure I drink more water and add in some exercise.

Thanks for listening and being witnesses to my renaissance year. I have been battling my weight for over 21 years. My baby turns 21 on March 17th and I weigh more now that the day I went in the hospital to give birth to her. That is going to change this year.
