Meal 1: Bai Bubbles and Profile Strawberry Kiwi Drink
Meal 2: Double Nacho Cheese Pasta and Spinach salad with cucumbers, carrots, and Bolthouse Merlot Vinaigrette (not sure if this counts as a freebie since its only 0.5 gm of Fat)
Meal 3: Fiber Drink, bar, and pistachios
Meal 4: Sushi made with Salmon, cauliflower, nori, FF Cream Cheese, asparagus and Eel Sauce
Meal 5: Profile Chocolate Shake and 3/4 cup Halo Top Ice Cream vanilla and lemon cake


 Challenges:
Eric went on a mission to find Halo Top Ice Cream...it is supposed to be all the rage with it's low fat content and high protein content. He found 3 pints left at his 3rd HyVee. It was good, especially for not having had ice cream in Months. I doubt this ice cream is "Profile" approved...but given the nutritional information on the container, I think it is fine to have once in a while. I am sure, since our dairy is pretty restricted to cheese and FF sour cream...that ice cream is a big NO-NO. But if it keeps me from yearning over that Jason's Deli Ice Cream cone...then I think its worth it.  The scale may not feel the same way...so I will let you know.

Food Reviews:(neither of which are probably Profile Approved):
Bolthouse Vinaigrette - http://www.bolthouse.com/product/raspberrymerlot
I like this dressing as a way of mixing it up with something different. I was in quite a rut when it came to salad dressings. Will need to chat with coach on if this is profile approved or not.

Halo Top Ice Cream - http://www.halotop.com/flavors/
Was very pleasantly surprised at how rich and creamy the flavors are. It is definitely less sweet then your typical ice cream but I think that is probably a good thing.


Weight:
Up about 3/4 a lb from Sunday's weigh in. But as I look back over my weigh-ins I don't usually lose more than 3 weigh-ins in a row. So it's most of the time...down down down, up, down down down, up. So I am not going to let this one bother me. I had ice cream last night after all...so I need to work that off today. Its going to be a nice day...so I am blocking off my calendar for a long walk at lunch.

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
