So you would think that two days after the Houlihan's fiasco I would be up...maybe it won't show until next week?!?
But as of this morning I am back down to my pre-7lb spike from last week.
So total loss as of this morning is 16.19lbs.

Here is how my day went yesterday:

Meal 1 and 2: Profile Shake and Cereal...in order to eliminate my feebies/fat from the day due to my Houlihan's fiasco. I used some of the shake on my cereal instead of milk.

Meal 3: Due to 1yo's doctor visit I didn't have lunch until very late. I had Profile Chicken Noodle with a Spinach and Cucumbers. I did have a very light sprinkling of the Profile Asian dressing

 Meal 4: Bar and Fiber drink. (added some benefiber to the fiber drink). Side note...the bar and fiber drink(that tastes like Koolaid) is a very nostalgic afternoon snack. Everyday after school my babysitter would serve all the kids Koolaid and Cookies for an afternoon snack. Looking back on it now...what a horribly sugar filled snack...and probably one of the starts of my life long struggle with weight. But she is a wonderful person whom I love dearly...nutrition wasn't a huge thing in the 80's.

Meal 5: Eric made a some beef stew type thing. Hunks of beef that are similar to pot roast, cooked carrots and celery. We left the broth off due to us trying to eliminate freebies(see meal one). He also roasted some Brussel Sprouts on the side and made a Cauliflower that was processed down to have the texture of rice. All very good.

Meal 6: Hot Profile Shake

I also actually worked out yesterday!! 1.1 miles on the Treadmill, 25 minutes on the Elliptical, and 20 minutes of free weights on the arms.


Challenges:
My house has 65 boxes of Girl Scout cookies in it...need I say more?

Delivering as fast as possible and trying to sell those that we bought for ourselves. I want to keep some for 5yo to try...so next year she can really have some knowledge of her product. I also plan to use our personal lot as snacks/treats for the March Girl Scout Meeting....which can not come soon enough.

Challenges Ahead:
1yo has been having some tummy/digestive issues as of late...her system decided to start working at 2am this morning...So I was up form 2am-3am dealing with that and trying to fall back asleep. Whenever I am this tired, I think my body tries to compensate with cravings of Sugar. I am doing okay now...but I can feel a lull in my day coming mid to late morning...I am saving my caffeine/tea mixed with Shake for my second meal instead of my first to combat that.

5yo will come home today from her SECOND valentine's day party with a box full of sugary goodness.


Food reviews:
I didn't eat anything new yesterday...

So we have a long weekend ahead with a chocolate induced Holiday in there...What I mean to say is Happy Valentine's Day!!

Have a great weekend!
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
