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.

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...

Bad Company

Bad Company. The Bible even warns us about keeping bad company.  3 3 Do not be deceived: “Bad company ruins good morals.” 1 Corinthians 15:33   This also applies to your weight loss journey. What you need is support from those around you. You don't want to surround yourself with those who do not respect you or your new life choices. Pay attention to what people do and not necessarily what they say. Actions speak louder than words!  We all have people in our lives that make poor choices when it comes to food. So, we have to use wisdom in how we spend our time around these people. I wouldn't plan to go out to a meal with someone who will constantly consume foods that may be my weakness. Those who constantly encourage me to have a cheat day or consume foods that are not healthy, nor are these foods a part of my new diet choices. Some people will be offended by your new lifestyle and food choices. That is not a problem that you need to contend with, let them be. Why chase tr...

Take Your Time, But Hurry Up!

Take your time, but hurry up! This is a line that someone I  knew loved to tell any and everyone! Running a little late? No, problem. Take your time, but hurry up. He'd use this line on every occasion it applied. It would catch people off guard and often after digesting what was said, they would chuckle. He was kidding but not really. It was his humorous  way of saying hurry up! It's time to go! When it comes to changing your lifestyle to live healthier, I say, take your time, but hurry up! Time is against us. There is no time to waste, so let your journey begin today. Not everyone who needs to change their diet to a healthy diet is overweight, obese or morbidly obese. But what you eat everyday is unhealthy. You have a diet full of sugar, fried foods, red meats, processed foods and so much more. You don't have a balance of fresh fruits or vegetables. Some of you don't eat fruits or vegetables at all. How could you possibly be healthy? You don't even drink water. You...
