Holy smoke. Can smoke be holy? Seventy days and 25 pounds ago I started a journey of a single step. If you've been following my exercise routines then you know not many steps came after that.
I tried no dairy and that was crazy, but some of that soy milk and cheese was pretty good.
The best days were ones with simple, fast and pre-made foods. Cereal bars, 100 calorie snack packs, 60 calorie puddings, Lean Cuisines and the like made it really easy to control and track what I ate. A little bit of research makes it clear that fast food meals and the devil, just like my doctor said 7 years ago.
I am taking two weeks off of the stringent picture diary that wasn't very stringent towards the end and taking at least the 2 weeks of the Healthe Trim. All the kudos in the world for helping me set a focus on the start-up but I'd like to see how it goes without pills for a bit.
Big trip to MN on Wednesday and a photo diary of that will be replacing the food diary for the duration. Still at the same general vicinity on Flickr though, so come on by to see how the mid-western, practically Canadian folks on the Twin Cities eat.
Also< I'll try to get a handle on this whole Brett Favre situation and the attitudes of the real Vikings fans. I still can't believe the signs with all the Brett love I saw on the TV picture.
I'll still be posting a before trip and after trip measurement too, so that should be ummm whatever.
Final number on the Healthe Trim was 68 days and -24.6 pounds. Slow and steady should be okay for now and the key will be sustaining it. We'll see if I can build in some exercise while I am off on vacation.
