Profile by Sanford Days 365 minus 5...so SHOULD be 360

I never went back to find the week I lost in my count...but I am 5 days short of 1 year.

Challenges: I am still in post holiday sugar craving mode. I said I would just throw out the crap that is left in the house and my kids about had a melt down.So it is all still there...but I hope while I am gone it gets eatten/thrown out.
I have stayed away from it for the most part...still snagging a bite or a couple of M&Ms here or there...

But I can tell on Sunday I went through a major sugar withdrawal headache. So I guess that is a good sign.

Since I put my notice in at work it has been lunch outs everyday saying goodbye to all my awesome coworkers. Today it was a BBQ place that I picked solely because I knew they had an AWESOME salad using BBQ sauce as the dressing. But of COURSE today when we arrive for lunch they have a sign up that the truck delivery is late and they are out of lettuce....UGGHHH. One of my coworkers who was also watching his carbs just gave up and got what he would have gotten if he wasn't watching his diet. I contemplated doing the same...but knew that I was leaving for my trip in two days and starting to go south now would only make it worse...this is a lifestyle change, not a diet. I will have this issue from time to time.
So I got a side of pork(no bun) with the green beans and the vinegar coleslaw.   Mixed it all up with a squirt of BBQ sauce and I was soooo full I felt sick. So given the situation...I think I made as good of choice as possible.

I will try to blog one more time tomorrow and then I will be MIA again. Girls' long weekend followed by starting a new job...so I am not sure where/when blogging will fit into my new schedule.

Weight: trending back down...now tied with the lowest I have been so far at - 95.6.  Only 4.2 lbs to goal! Can I do this on a weekend trip that includes wine...and lots of it?!?!?

P.S. - I found out at my last appt that re-upping is only $50...well $75 and with a free $25 giftcard....FYI for those debating on re-upping for another year.

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
