I’m guessing that this is the time of the year that a lot of people’s weight becomes stagnant. It is wedding season and babies galore. I have been within the same five lbs for a month now maybe a little more than a month. I don’t know if it is stress of all these things or the meatballs as appetizers. ß I am going to say it’s both. I had my one month free trial with the nutritionist and I did take a lot from it. I have been trying to follow her lead and keep up with it.
The hard part is Groceries. $180 every 2 weeks just trying to eat well balanced meals is draining my purse. Now I could go back to the way I was doing things and just keeping my calories low by snaking on yogurt, fruit, peanuts, hummus, 100 calorie packs and just bringing a lunch. I didn’t mind the cooking and preparing part of it, it’s just so hard to stomach that much money on groceries when I have other bills that have to be paid. It was much easier buying $1.00 macaroni and $2.00 hamburger helper. Now I know why more than half of America is obese, all the cheaper food is good and greasy.
I guess I am more in a pickle of which road to get on. Do I stick to the well balanced meals and not have any money to play with or save or do I go back to my original snacking that was much cheaper?
My original was working but, I did have a lot of cravings and crashes. Has anyone else experienced this? I have 23 more lbs to go before June 9th and I do not want to procrastinate anymore.
I still work out for 1 hour 4-5 times a week and I do a mix of aerobics, kick boxing, and strength training.
After losing 27lbs already I feel so much better about myself and just started taking more pictures with friends and family. I used to hate the camera after I gained the weight. I would never let my friends post pics on their MySpace pages or I would stand behind everyone.
Thank you to everyone that has helped me because I truly feel so much more confident already.
