Profile by Sanford Day 20

Okay...now I am pissed. I stayed off the scale and then finally weighed myself first thing this morning...post morning pee and in only underwear...and I am UP nearly 5lbs since my last weigh in 2 days ago...How?!?! WHY?!?! Why can Eric CHEAT...drinking caloric caffeinated beverages and celebrating more than 20Lbs gone with a BAG of beef jerky...while I am following the rules 99% of the time(I do not believe the one bite of cake I had last Friday would make me GAIN 5 LBS!!) and I am remaining stagnant overall...Don't tell me I am not drinking enough water when I drink nearly 80 oz a day. Don't tell me I am not getting enough exercise...though true...I have stepped up the movement in the last week. Taking a few walks and yesterday I even physically moved all of my things at work from one cube to another...I broke a sweat with all the books and lugging the computer hard ware and getting up and down off the floor to attach and re-attach cables.

Yesterday I consumed:
Meal 1: Hot Chocolate Shake with a bag of tea
Meal 2: Cold Chocolate Shake
I split lunch up into two meals to prolong it...
Meal 3: Carrots and Cucumbers with the left over spin/artichoke dip from a few nights back
Meal 4: Tomato Soup Mix with 2 triangles of Laughing Cow
Meal 5: Mint Chocolate bar(not a fan of mint) and Sparkling water with fiber drink
Meal 6: Lettuce wrap pork "tacos" with Romaine, 1 laughing cow cheese, FF sour cream, salsa, and broccoli/carrot "slaw"
Meal 7: Frozen (blended with ice) chocolate shake with a spritz of FF whipped topping

I don't know what to say. My next attempt will be to eliminate all 3 servings of the "free foods" as I am not able to realize what is being consumed when Eric makes certain concoctions(see spin dip and "slaw"). If that doesn't change things...then I will cut my fats in half.

Meeting with counselor tomorrow. Feeling deflated completely.
More to come...

Profile by Sanford Day 7...but really day 1 of REBOOT

On Wednesday 1/20, I started the REBOOT program on my own accord. I hadn't pumped in over 24 hours and just decided to jump in. I had Eric's menu to go off of and wanted to try his Profile Products anyway before I went into the store this afternoon for my weekly meeting and stock up session. I will admit I felt a little bit hungrier. Eric's hunger scale on his chart showed a high hunger rating on his first day too but it seemed to taper off after the second day. So I am hopeful. I had a shake for meal 1, a Profile Soup(Chicken...better made with broth, fyi) for meal 2, a soup(tomato...I didn't mix it well enough) and roasted broccoli and a spinach with beet salad for meal 3(lunch), one of my last 10g protein bars(supposed to have been a 15g bar but hadn't made it to the store yet to stock up) and spoon full of powdered peanut butter(Profile freebie).....note to self...add some of this powder to shakes for a better taste on those that need a little help. I went in

Profile by Sanford - 2 years and 3 months

So I did not actually fall of the face of the earth...but it sort of feels like I did, doesn't it? I will say that 2 years into this process, I am still a big believer in it. When I reached my goal over a year ago, I kind of "let loose." I ate all the foods I had restricted myself from having during reduce. I didn't gain back right away. It took a couple of months...but my sugar addiction came back with a vengeance.  I eventually gained 20lbs back and when I hit "that number"...I freaked. What was I doing to myself? Why was I throwing away 12 months of tremendous hard work? Part of my issue was the sugar, but the other part was that I didn't spend this same time and energy to learn and understand the adapt and sustain phases that I had done with reduce. That was huge. When they added a carb and fruit into my daily diet, I would count pizza or sugar treat as my carb...not everyday...but once in a while. I still fundamentally knew I shouldn't be ea

Starting the morning with a Strawberry shake...adding ice for the smoothie effect... By 9:30 was hungry again...was able to hold out until 10am where I created a "game changer" Chocolate shake made with hot water(cocoa effect) and Peanut Butter Powder....I can not say it enough...GAME CHANGER...This is something I would even consider drinking after I reach my goal!! For lunch I had a spinach salad with broccoli/carrot slaw. I split my fat up between a low cal salad dressing and a Laughing cow Cheese. FYI the white cheddar has the same cal/fat content as the swiss light and tastes way better!! And a cup of the Profile Chicken soup. Still not my favorite...but on the REBOOT plan I need 4 meal replacements and one will soon get bored with only Shakes. Remember to use vegetable or chicken broth instead of water and it makes it better. Snack what a Profile glazed Sugar Cookie bar and a glass of mixed berry fiber drink that I mixed with a carbonated flavored water....hoping t
