Profile by Sanford Day 56

Meal 1: Hot Profile Shake with Chai tea
Meal 2: Profile Nacho Cheese pasta Salad with snap peas and mixed dressing
Meal 3: Profile Strawberry Kiwi drink and Bar
Meal 4: Beef Tacos wrapped in Romaine, with grilled zucchini, real cheese, FF sour cream, and Fiber drink
Meal 5: Profile Vanilla pudding with a scoop of PB powder and a squirt of FF whipped topping.

Challenges:
Work schedule today made it hard to get my food made in eaten at normal times. I was able split my normal meal/snack of a bar and fiber drink between the meals before and after that.

Comparing my loss to others seems to be something I need to let go of. I have a friend who has been the biggest drinker, smoker, chicken-fried-steak eater, I know...who is now chronicling his weight loss on Facebook, is only 10 days in and already lost 14lbs. Uggh...so annoying.

Food Reviews:
I knew I would eventually find the right use for these vanilla shakes...with PB Powder. Shake or pudding...I like them both.
Weight:
I am back down to my lowest weight so far...again(- 22.81)...so that took 11 days of "hovering." I am sure it is hormonal and water retention based...but 11 days is painful to sit through.
My coach says it is normal for many woman to hover for weeks at a time and only lose 1 week out of the month. That is definitely a new mindset to get used to.

After a doctor's appointment today I am starting 2 new medications. One is a BC and another to treat PCOS....so it will be interesting to see how each of these affects weight loss.

More to come...

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...

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...

Sanford by Profile Day 19

I made a deal with my counselor not to weigh in everyday as it toys with one's emotions. I successfully did NOT weigh myself this morning! Meals 1&2: Breakfast was the doubled up Strawberry with PB powder and spinach shake. Meal 3: Lunch was Broccoli/Laughing cow cheese soup and spinach/carrot/cucumbers salad. Meal 4: I tried the Chocolate Almond Bar...again pleasantly surprised..and my fiber drink with sparkling water. Meal 5: For dinner Eric made Romaine lettuce wrapped turkey burgers with 1 laughing cow cheese, ketchup, saute'd onions, a dab of  miracle whip light, and a broccoli and carrot slaw made with a sauce of yogurt dressing, poppy seed dressing, lemon juice, and I think FF sour cream. It was pretty yummy. Meal 6: I made a frozen chocolate shake and topped it with some FF whipped topping. Eric had to make a stop at the Profile store for me yesterday because I miscalculated the number of shakes I needed this week...so I sent him in to pick me up another cou...
