Here we are at my last day of the detox! I’ve veered off the detox a bit lately, but that’s okay – I’m all ready for my real foods challenge for February Today’s measurements Weight: 126.6 lbs (down 5.4 lbs since Dec. 31!) BMI: 25.6 (down 1.6 since Dec. 31!) Inches around waist: 29.3 (down [...]

Today I weighed in at 129.2 lbs. That’s another 2 lbs down! It’s funny, because I have quite a good amount of energy throughout the day right now (maybe because my blood sugar levels are stable without the massive amounts of Christmas cookies and chocolate?). I like it. 7am Green shake with 1 cup cold [...]

My nutrition challenge begins tomorrow! I’m very excited. All month I will be doing a detox. I decided to do all my measurements first thing this morning. I want to be really accurate to see my progress as the months go by. I hadn’t weighed myself in over a month, so it was rather saddening [...]

Apple slices are a great snack to take to work. I’m a big fan. Also, today I weighed in and I lost 4.4 lbs and 0.7 % body fat! Granted, last Monday morning when I weighed in, I had eaten too much on the Sunday so part of it was likely water weight. But still! [...]
Today’s my last day of the green shake fast! Hurray! For the most part I’ve enjoyed it, but I’m looking forward to chewing on food and to eating something with a little more sustenance. I woke up early and had nightmares all night. Four nights of bad dreams in a row! But at least I [...]
