Long Memorial Weekend and 40th Birthday Celebration for good friend.

We went out to eat for lunch on Saturday(Chick-fil-a), Sunday(Spin Pizza), and Monday(Smashburger)
I tried to stay on plan as much as I could.
At Chick-fil-a, I tried their Superfoods Salad with Kale and Broccolini.Of course it was drenched in salad dressing and covered with dried fruit that I gave to the kids. It came with nuts that I added and ate as my fat. Though I am sure the dressing should have counted too.  Sunday, I had another salad at Spin...and again it was covered in dressing (I forgot to order it on the side), goat cheese, and more nuts...so I had way too much fat. Monday we ate lunch at Smashburger. I had a burger on a bed of lettuce and a salad...but the burger had cheese, bacon and fried onions on it...another triple fat wammy.
We also had a Birthday cookie cake and I had a piece and it was so good. But after a small portion I was shockingly satisfied.

I weighed in over the long weekend to make sure I was still on track and not blowing it completely...but the weigh in didn't sync:(. So I don't have an official change since my last post.

Tons of challenges as you can see!

So folks...we are having a big event happening to our family over the next few weeks...so I am telling you right now that my postings will be sparse, if at all for a bit. I promise to stay on plan, and the exercise issue will not be a problem. My goal will be to be down 50lbs by the next time I post! Wish me luck! And stay the course. I will be back soon!

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
