Well a few months ago I canceled WW. Logging/tracking food is a great concept and yes it did work for me. But, I instead of eating balanced meals, I feel like I was just eating whatever I wanted... as long as I stayed under my point range.
So, I found the app my fitness pal. Insane that it is almost exactly like the WW site, but calculated calories instead of points. It even adds in exercise. Even better... it's FREE
It was time to do damage control... so I got on the scale. Out of the 27 pounds that I had lost I had gained back 10. "The journey of 1000 miles begins with the first step".
With meals this week, I've started trying to incorporate more fruits AND veggies into every single meal. I've been giving myself a refresher course in portion control and brought back out the pretty, smaller plates (that kinda trick my my brain into thinking I'm eating a plate full of food
With every dinner I am eating a large salad (kinda like Jo does). I've added more fish & seafood to my mealplans... and more protein. I boiled up a few eggs to throw into salads or to eat with a slice of toast on my way to work in the morning.
So here we go again.
I am so very happy to see so much continued success here... y'all are definitely amazing & have worked so very hard at keeping the motivation & inspiration alive & well! Keep up the amazing work!
