My First Meal of the Day

Hello everyone! I thought I'd share a first meal of the day with you. I usually eat my first meal of the day no earlier than 11 am. It all depends on my schedule and what I have to do that day. I have eaten my first meal some days like yesterday, after 5pm. Yesterday I had one meal and earlier that afternoon I ate a 100 calorie bag of dusted dark chocolate almonds.

This meal is from weeks ago. I decided to take a photo of this meal so I could write this post. 


This day I ate breakfast for my first meal. This breakfast consists of Egg Beaters and Baby Spinach, if I want to add cheese. I prefer Follow Your Heart Vegan Gouda Cheese Slices. The toast is White Smart Carb bread and it's covered with an half of a Avocado.

I consider this a fairly healthy, low calorie and low sodium meal. It's quite tasty as well. I'm not going to put all the numbers in. I just wanted to share a simple meal that I eat sometimes. If I'm home I love to eat at least one salad a day, usually for my second meal. I tend to eat 2 meals a day as a habit. My snack(s) usually include a 130 calorie bag of lightly salted Pistachios or the 100 calorie bag of dusted dark chocolate almonds. In the mornings most days, I blend myself a Pineapple or Mixed Fruit Smoothie.

Don't Be Afraid of Stand Still

Hello everyone! Don't be afraid of standing still. What I mean is standing still in your weight loss journey. There will be periods of time that your weight loss will stand still. I mean really still. You will not lose weight yet you're sticking to proper eating habits and exercise. This too shall pass. I've gone through periods like this often enough.  I remember, it seemed like I couldn't lose weight no matter what. All of a sudden it was like I dropped twenty pounds overnight. I'm serious, I noticed I'd lost a lot of inches my clothes were much bigger on me. I also want to point out you may not lose pounds but you will be losing inches. Look I've learned to just go with the flow. If you don't learn to go with the flow you will become an emotional roll coaster on your weight loss journey.  Just take a deep breath. Everything will be alright! Really! Just keep going. At the beginning of your weight loss journey. The weight will come off pretty easy and ...

I Can See it Now

My weight loss journey has been long and slow. I don't go to the gym. I do my own exercises. Sometimes in life things can become so overwhelming that exercise has to go to the bottom of my list. The  work I do 7 days a week, 12 hours a day is very demanding both mentally and physically. It's God that keeps me going. Even when I'm exhausted I know I can never give up and never quit!  My weight has come off slowly. The more weight I lose the harder it is to lose. For the longest time, I couldn't even see the weight loss. I still struggle with that everyday. I look in the mirror and I could swear I'm bigger than I was yesterday. I know it sounds ridiculous but the mind can play many tricks on us. I struggle to see how much smaller I am now than when I began this journey.  These days I'm thinking about putting myself in maintenance mode and giving myself an emotional break for a week or two. Maintenance mode is no intentional weight loss or weight gain. Just maintai...

Who Ordered All This Loose Skin?

Hey! Who ordered all this loose skin? It took a little while but I started noticing how my skin was beginning to loosen up almost everywhere! My upper arms and my stomach are the worst! Yes, loose skin. I mean really loose skin. It gets looser the more I lose weight. All the exercise in the world is not gonna completely tighten up all that stretched out skin. As a matter of fact you probably won't notice much tightening at all! Well, I'm going to have to get used to all this extra skin because surgery simply isn't an option for me. I'm 60 years old and nobody has to be bothered with it but me and that's just fine. I've been big all my life. So my poor skin has been stretched for around 60 years. That's just not fair is it? The abuse we subject our bodies to because we love food and won't discipline ourselves. Overeating becomes a norm to us and we cause all kinds of medical issues. Many times we cause our own mental issues as well.  So now that we know b...
