Food:
Well starting Friday I started making bad choices. I split a cookie with my work hubby at lunch on Friday. I ate a full salad with triple fats and a slice of my kid's pizza (on whole wheat crust though:) at dinner and ate a kids size portion of gelato.
Saturday, I tried to stay on track before the Big Birthday Bash I was hosting. I knew going into it I was going off plan...with alcohol and ice cream cookie cake and the whole 9 yards. The menu wasn't really off plan (except the two previously mentioned items) but I know I did not watch the portion size. Instead of fixing a plate and sitting down and eating it...I was grabbing a bite of this and that between every shot glass size of the wine tasting AND I probably had more than 8 oz of wine. The day after I tried very hard to snap right back to plan. I did end up consuming one more 1/2 slice of the ice cream cookie cake and half of my little ones Planet Sub Pizza boat.

Challenges:
^^^See above^^^
But also the sugar addiction. I wanted so much more sugar and carbs the next day. I had a slight headache the next day too...that I thought was due to the wine I had. But I also think the sugar withdrawal was part of it. I felt surprisingly good that night and the next day. I thought for sure I would be sicker than a dog after eating so much cheese and fats and carbs and wine...but I felt pretty good and two advil kicked the dull headache.

Exercise:
This was my other downfall this week. The temps have been too cold to walk outside in the early morning hours. And the bed has been too comfy and inviting to get my lazy arse up to do something inside.
I even have a workout Playstation "game" that I could be doing on cold mornings. But I have been so tired lately...vicious cycle that I need to break. I am tired because I am not working out...and I am not getting up to workout because I am too tired.

I am afraid of falling back into old habits. Sugar and Exercise...one I have and can't stop craving more...the other I take a break from and I can't get motivated to get back into it.

Weight...I should have known this was coming...but it still stings: up 2.9lbs after this weekend = - 90.7
That number alone should be enough to get my arse in gear and back in the routine again.

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
